Hi all, new to forum
 
Hi all, I recently purchased a 2013 Nismo with about 30k on it. I've done a few minor modifications. Looking forward to some more in the near future. I replaced the non-bose stereo and replaced the rotors and brake pads. I just ordered the GTM turbo kit and looking at doing a custom exhaust system. I like the Motordyne E370, so it will be similar.

The Z car has been one of my favorite cars for a long time. So, I am glad to finally own one. I'm looking forward to making some friends on this forum. Thanks for having me.

Beautiful car!

Good luck with the GTM kit :ugh2:. Not sure how long you've been on the forums, but GTM is a bit of a sore subject on here nowadays.

Beautiful!

Welcome and congrats on the new ride. :tup:

hermit 10-15-2014 10:26 PM

Thanks, I do appreciate the heads up. I'll continue looking into things.

Nice. Cool shots too.

hermit 10-16-2014 12:04 AM

Thanks, the Z just has a way of shining in photos =D. There are a lot of really nice ones on this forum. Like yours and some of the others that posted above. Gives me the body kit bug. Maybe in the near future.

Hi all, new to forum
 
nismo's in red make me a little jealous

hermit 10-18-2014 05:45 PM

I was rather impressed with the color myself. There is a blue color I've seen. That's got me jealous.

Welcome fellow Magma Red Z! Good luck with the upgrades... I have my eye on drop in K&N filters... lol

hermit 10-18-2014 08:02 PM

=D Nice Z you got there. I had replaced my drop in filters with wix when I first purchased this car. In this case the original were quite dirty. pics

Was good timing I guess, I found out I could get AMS Oil just down the street that day. I normally use Mobile One, but figured I'd give it a run. I always seem to hear nothing but good about it.

RBfastback 10-18-2014 08:18 PM

just please don't go as long as amsoil's says u can, I never go past 3-4k no-matter what oil I use.

hermit 10-18-2014 08:19 PM

On the topic of the turbos. Looks like it was good I wen't through a shop here in town. He says he's dealt with this before in the past from other parts. And not to worry about it, though I'm still making sure the refund was made to him. He is going to do a kit himself. He's also the the guy thats going to do my exhaust. He's good at what he does, so I more than trust everything to be good quality. Looks like I need to look more into this stuff as suggested, before requesting or ordering. That was a mistake and a half.

I'm glad to hear that. I tend to do it at 3000-3500 no matter the oil.

SlowRollin 10-18-2014 09:24 PM

I just up'd my game to Mobil 1. There's no keeping up with the Jones' around here for me... lol

hermit 10-18-2014 09:27 PM

I like Mobile One, I've used it for a long time. Thats what I replaced the AMS Oil with when I changed the oil about a week ago. Bt of a price difference too =D

Makes it less valid amigo

mab864 10-25-2014 09:08 AM

I love your magma red Nismo. How about we trade??? If not... I understand. Anyway, welcome and congrats on the Z.

hermit 12-03-2014 10:50 AM

Sorry I haven't gotten back on this yet. Been very busy. Had no issues with getting the money back from GTM. I'm having a custom kit made, by a shop here in town, the guy is great. I know it will be quality. Will probably start the installation next week or the week after. He's been quite busy as well, but it's worth the wait. I'll Have to find where to post a thread about the turbo installation, as we begin it. I plan to get lots of good pictures. These are the turbo's I wen't with.

Thanks man.

Sorry I haven't been around much. Life has been busy, things are slowing down now. I plan to make a ride thread, or something like that for the modifications I'm doing. Still haven't had a chance to look over the whole forum, to know where to put it. But I'll find it when the later today.
