Finally!

I just bought this baby for 29k with 374 miles on it. It's a 2010 Touring Sport.

Thanks, all. I'm not sure about mods. Should I look into an oil cooler first?

Also, it seems like the deals have been popping up in the last couple weeks. Here's another great one I was looking at...2011 Nismo with 8k miles for $29,800.

Congratulations. You got a very good deal. I would keep the modifications to a minimum if I were you -- like I did with mine. You should only do, in this order:

Exhaust
Intake
Oil cooler
Stainless brake lines
Replace stock brake fluid
Bigger sway bars
Short shifter
Swift springs
Koni dampers
Pilot Super Sport Tires
Upgrade brake pads

Like I said earlier, keep the modifications to a minimum.

If it's your daily driver and you want to enhance looks + add power... This is exactly what you should do and in this order...

H&R Springs + 25mm rear / 20mm spacers front (Do these mods at same time!)
Berk HFC's
Stillen G3 intakes
Exhaust
Uprev tune
Front lip (Aftermarket front lip makes the front of the Z look SOO much better. Even a simple Stillen front "splitter")

done.

If you have some extra cash later, buy some new rear tires for grip... preferably 305's, but you'll have to drop down to a 20mm spacer or they will stick out like crazy. No sense in upgrading brake lines and all that BS if you're not tracking the car. Short shifter = no.

Here's an older picture of my car with similar mods listed above. As you can tell, goes from "meh" to head turner. Especially with a good sounding exhaust.
