Absolutely beautiful car. You may want to add some Intakes as your next project now. Quick question, what exactly was the Deal breaker on the FI exhaust? (I'm about to get an exhaust myself, and FI is up there as first candidate)

Not all are equal, just go with a well known brand and if you aren't tracking the car, the bolt-on type will work great. I have zero vibration, the car feels rock solid as ever. I spoke to Z1 Motorsports for a while on the best setup for my car (sport model with the 19" Rays and staggered stance 245/275).

I love the track tuned suspension and forged wheels, so since I won't be changing either, we went with 20mm up front and 20mm in the back. I see where some go as far as 25mm in the rear, but I'd like to possibly go to a 285 or 305 in the back later and that would definitely push it (don't want to roll the fenders or scrub).

The possibility of getting some paint chips from the more aggressive stance is there, but well worth it IMO. I never take it on the interstate and keep my distance from other cars. Dr. Color Chip does an excellent job on repairing the occasional chip though when it does happen =)

Add in a set of Swift Spec R springs and you'll really love the stance and the feel. I've had Swift + z1 20mm spacers + Ark grip for 3 years now and love it. Good choices.

Thanks! I do plan on looking into what gains I can get with a CAI setup and I'd like to possibly do test pipes or HFC's later as well.

FI was on my list until I found out how long I'd be waiting, lol. This is their busy season, so you are looking at 3 months or more. If there weren't so many options, I could have waited, but I absolutely LOVE this ARK system! The welds, sound, look and power gains are right there with any other high end exhaust system for the 370Z. No drone, exotic like tone up top, gorgeous design (loads of compliments already) and those Tecno tips...my goodness those things look amazing against the Magnetic Black paint :happydance:
