Default New member hopefully new Z owner Soon.

Hello I am a new member.

Very excited as I am in the market for a Z and wanted to join and learn all I can about my future car hopefully.


So far I want to go N/A for now.

Thinking of F.I. LTH, either F.I. CBE or CNT exhaust and either Stillen CAI or Injen CAI not sure on this.

What do you think of the parts listed and my plan I would also get an Oil Cooler and an Uprev tune to bring all the parts together.


Thanks

Welcome to the forums! Sounds like you've already done some research...and FI LTH and CBE are the way to go. FI is also working on a TT kit...

TT will most likely be a nightmare as it is for most so the plan to stay N/A is wise. FI LTH & CBE along with Stillen Gen 3's and and UpRev tune should put you somewhere in the 320-330whp range. As Glockwork said it looks like you have already done some research Welcome aboard and good luck getting into a Z.

Thanks a lot for the warm welcome.

I'm thinking about getting either Monterey Blue with light gray interior or the Black with Permission Interior. Which one out of these two combinations would you guys say is more rare in the Z world?

MB is def unique in my opinion, Black is just black. But then again depends on your preference.

Welcome and congrats!

But the Z will be strictly a nice Weekend car.

So do still think Black will be too much maintenance also I will have it covered during the week.

Welcome to the zoo. With FI you have so many options. Look at STS for the single, hp range from 500-900+ on a single turbo with a clean install. You've also have GTM/Greedy for your twin needs, they will also produce the same amount of HP and a little more. Either way if you have never owned a 370z or been on a test drove. Sit back, bring some napkins and pull the trigger. Enjoy it when you get it.

Wow that is a sick picture does anybody know if you can still get the Permisson interior or the light gray leather as I don't do Black leather too hot.

Thanks tower74 for all those good options for when N/A get's old F.I is the way to go.

I'm sure if you talk to the dealer they could probably get it done or found but it would have to made in Japan then shipped.
That was taken on top of a mountain just outside of Dubois,Wy. We watched the storm form..it came rolling up the hill then came the thunder and lighting when it hit the top by us.

What do you guys think of this car and price
2012 Z 6spd Touring+Sport with the fallowing options.
Carpeted Floor mats
Illuminated Kick Panel
Carpeted trunk mat
Rear view camera
Body color splash


The car has 56 miles which I don't like but they say its new and the price they offered me was $37,500 + TTL what do you guy's think is this a good price or should I keep looking.

I was planning to go take a look at the car tomorrow.
