Birthday Gift For My Dad
 

Hi everyone,

My Dad's birthday is this weekend and yeah that is short notice. Was wondering if anyone could help recommend a present for him?

He has a 370Z convertible and would love a little extra power &/or speed from it. The car is currently stock.

Looking to spend around $500...maybe a little more if it's really worth it, but not much more.

If it was my car (Lancer Ralliart), I would just go to AMS and get a ECU-Reflash or something (flash ~$300 + $200 cables is in my ballpark), but I know nothing about the 370Z or what companies are respected in regards to tuning/modding them.

Thanks in advance for any help provided!

For around 500 bucks I would say get him some stillen gen 3 intakes.

:iagree:

Id recommend Prem Membership with decals? worth at least 10hp

Now if you were to a Red GTR Start Button? that could and another 20hp

prem membership with decals $20

Red GTR Button $40

FTW :ugh2:

Agree, this or the Injen Long Tube CAI, if he doesn't have intakes yet. Small power bump, engine grunt, easy to install.

Or if his Z is pre-2012, an oil cooler might be a good sub-500 buck option.

:icon17:

good call

My decal dynoed at 12whp

Thanks so much for your help guys! I appreciate it and the Stillen recommendation looks perfect!

@Triple's - I'll throw on some Care Bear stickers as well! +13 love at the wheel

NST Pulley set. Not sure how mechanically inclined your dad is, but I paid $250 for the set + installation to give you an idea and the difference is there every time you drive. I know theres several vendors on this site selling them as well as an official thread.

Get him K&N drop in air filters and some fancy motor oil.

Can't go wrong with these :tup:

I have it and love it... great value.

GT-R start button is economical and would make a great gift.

Staying out of jail will make him happy.
Just kidding. Actually, a lot of the previous mentioned ideas sound good and I'm going to check into a few of them for myself.

Down payment on an F.I. exhaust!

:iagree: In a roadster he will hear them more.

You must have put it on backwards then. Ive seen and easy 25 from it.:happydance:
