Beautiful car! I am a little partial to the brilliant silver myself.

Thanks I appreciate it. Funny story I was originally looking for a blue one. I had dealers looking for me, I was looking on every car sales website within 500 miles of me, I looked everywhere. I couldn't find a blue one that wasn't beat to crap or had a million miles on it. In the almost 4+ months I was looking for one I only saw 1 decent blue one come up for sale but I passed because they wanted too much for it and I was just starting to look. I had no idea it would be so hard to find a blue one in a sport package or I would have bought it. Anyway I ended up with silver which was my second choice and I actually am glad I got silver over blue. Silver on this car looks so good! Not many cars can pull off silver but silver makes the lines on this car pop! Now I am a so glad I couldn't find a blue one.

Default Shift knob

The next mod I did was an aftermarket shiftknob. I wanted something with a little weight to it but nothing too heavy. I ended up going with a Raceseng Stratose shift knob with Alcantara on it. I am glad I grabbed one when I did. I ordered in December and didn't receive it till the end of February (installed at around 11,800~ miles) and they are still out of stock. I love the shift knob it feels great in the hand, shifts feel smoother and I feel more confident when shifting. The quality of it is absolutely amazing and it was well worth the $200+ I paid for it. That weekend I also got new Michilen Pilot sport 4S tires (Installed at 11,800~ miles) I went with the standard 245 front 275 rear (Those took almost a month before my tire guy could get any in stock)

Default JDM Fairlady Z Reverse Fog Light

Just finished this mod earlier today (done at 12,700~ miles). I had the light bolted in for a while now but just now got around to wiring it up. It was really easy thanks to this guide from Cbtech. I think the fog light looks sick on them and I wish Nissan just did it from the factory. They literally put everything in for it except the bulb and the switch or code for the BCM to turn it on.

Default HFC Install

The next mod that was just done a few weeks ago is RHFC install (installed at 12,500~ miles). I bought mine from fast intentions at the same time I bought my Motordyne exhaust but it took a while to get them just because of the long turn around times. This mod IMHO has made the biggest difference power wise. I feel more so than my exhaust did. Maybe it's just because I have two breather mods now but the car pulls much harder and throttle response is better. I am for sure glad I went resonated because it does drone more. It's not bad at highway speeds but in some RPM ranges it can be a little annoying. I went HFC instead of test pipes just because I didn't want it too loud. I know everyone says get the ART pipes and even though I don't have to deal with emissions testing I just didn't want test pipes personal preference. I don't have pics of the RHFC but I did take a pic of my old cats (the weight saving alone on those is decent). I did take a video of it below:
