STOCK... How many of us have them?

T.lynch · 03-13-2015, 10:20 PM

I have a 40th anny. And plan to do only minimal mods. Illuminated kick plates, stillen exhaust and tint will probably be the extent of the mods I do. Also, it really bothers me when I see other 40th models highly modded. Why not just buy a sport model if you're going to completely change the integrity of the anniversary model to the point you can't tell its an anniversary outside of badges and red interior? Just my opinion

I planned on keeping mine stock but after reading some of the exhaust and intake mods which seem very easy I am leaning more to the (light mod) side. The real thing that keeps pushing me is the youtube videos showing the installs and the great sounds. Not only the sounds but the HP increase you get makes it fun to do.

those modded 40ths that you saw probably was purchased by the owners back in 2010/2011.

I once told myself not to change anything to my 40th until one day we had a 40th AE meeting and there were 8 of us showed up! Suddenly deep inside your heart you know your is car is no longer "unique".

One 40th owner I know personally is KarotZ who is really passionate about modding his car and he has won many awards. I have big respect for those guys for their hard work and passion.

Owning a 40th its just not special enough not to mod. Its not like it has major differences compared to other z's besides the colors and 2 badges what is there really?

OP I say its possible to enjoy the car stock, mods aren't a necessity.
