Got ART pipes for Christmas so those will get installed in the next couple of days, headlights got dropped off at TwistedHouzings to get modded yesterday, and then ordering the Motordyne E370 CBE next week.

Gotta keep that pace going and i'll be happy

I am getting my Zele Exhaust put on.
My Sparco Seats customized and installed.

Some blue Kevlar for the interior.

I'm hoping to buy a Z soon after the first of the year.
When I do the first thing it'll get as soon as possible is a Viper alarm system with a field disturbance sensor and battery backup.

Swift Springs, Whiteline Sways, spacers, ART pipes and the Motordyne shockwave e370 exhaust. It's gonna be a fun year with the car. Oh yeah, and make a trip to the tail of the dragon and around that area....

Take it out of storage April, drop her off at the autobody shop April 10th (already booked) to get the aerojacket fenders on while I fly off to Maui for 6 days

Maybe the amuse sides and rear sometime mid/late 2013 or the FI exhaust undecided.

Also replace the Nissan front badge with a nice shiny "Z" badge I got off ebay.

Swap out the frosted map lenses with the clear ones and add white LEDs in there and the light behind the seats in a roadster with a blue LED.

Hope you love your AAM exhaust as much I like mine that was installed about a month ago. Sweet.

Awesome, I can't wait! Yup and I got them with the 5" GTR titanium tips as well. I think they will look pretty sweet...

My "Z" emblems should be here just after the new year. After that, tires are a MUST. After that, definitely the Stillen G3, an exhaust, and a tune. Come April, as much autocross as possible. I was terrible during my first couple of events in the Z. I need as much seat time as I can get...I'm thinking EVO driving school. It's autocross on a short course with a ton of runs. I'm thinking coilovers and sway bars once I plateau on the stock suspension. That'll be the year after, though. I need to buy a house first. And a beater.

cdepp has a nice itinerary

Once I take it out of storage:

- Pull that steering lock fuse lol
- Take it for a full detail/paint polish etc
- Evo R Black Badges (just ordered from the Z store)
- Hood struts (z1motorsports)
- Give her a big hug and tell her how much I missed her over winter!

Buying the below in January so I can install in spring:

- Bridgestone RE-11 tires 275/305 (fronts are bald and need a nice set for weekend time attack)
- INGS+1 CF front lip
- Hotchkis sway bars
- Motul 600 brake fluid
- Stoptech Stainless steel brake lines

There is an Autocross/Time Attack 3 day school event in April...I want to go badly but the Saturday session falls on my finals for one of my sport leagues....don't know what to do....I do ok now but really want to learn the ins and outs properly

I love how this has so much more importance over all the other mods.

Take note boys & girls,car don't run,can't play with new mods.
