People who work for their car, even if its old or junk, enjoy it more and miss it more when its gone than a person who just got a fancy or expensive car from their parents. Last edited by Eclipz; 12-18-2013 at 08:18 PM. |

Congrats on your Z. If you've worked this hard to afford a nice car, I have no doubts you will work even harder to achieve your other goals. Just be careful when driving.

If I came home with a Z at that age I would find the locks changed...Even when I bought the 350z(age 24 ish) I was scolded by my parents(wasn't new either) and you should hear them with this one, they truly believe they screwed up somewhere in parenting because of how irresponsible these purchases are, but guess what, the 370 is my lambo, I think over a certain dollar amount it is stupid for a car, I respect a well done "poor mans" sports car properly modified over a high end production car. I dont want to be the 70 year old man driving his dream vette, that is pointless IMO. Do it while you're younger, at 17 or 19 if I had this car, oh the tickets I would have, hell I got in trouble with a 87 NA rx7!

I got my 1st Z at 18. It was a 5 yr old 83zx and she was sweet.
It was irresponsible, after just 2 weeks i started slipping. I found myself leaving the Nintendo controllers and actually leaving the house and working. Pickin up girls and going for "rides." Yep, it was the thug life for me. I didn't know what was gonna happen next. Months turned into years and the twisted turns I took led me down a life I didn't expect. I grew up. It's a car not a crime. to the OP Gratz on the Z. Don't do anything stupid and keep the speed on the track. |

I had a G37 at age 17 so I know the feel OP. When I bought it I knew it was more than just a nice car.. Driven dangerously it was a weapon. Maturity is a huge factor when it comes to young dudes having nice cars. Just be safe and have fun!

LOL "fast"
You can have a fast car and have it slow at the same time. Best mod for ANY car is driver mod. After that, you then, can think about car mods. Two 370Z Nismos at BIR ran mid 14's and low 15's. This car is setup to be a mid-low 13's car. ![]() |

I feel you,, I started early owned my first 350z when I was 18.. now start with Exhaust. Uprev Tune. Intakes or if you wanna go more do test pipes [just be careful revving it] and yeah like everyone said go AutoX it'll help A LOT. and never turn off that VDC.
