sweet! where'd you get your powerhouse amuse vestitio full aero from?

Where to get this and what did you buy?

^Wonder if he got kelleyefields' solution?

Had the car 3 weeks today and just put in the drop ins, tomorrow my ERZ HFCs will arrive, nismo shift knob on Wednesday, new vanity plates by next week and FI TDX won't be here till August.

Tint

does adding these things void your warranty?

No, not right off anyway. They have to prove the aftermarket part caused the warranty part to fail. It's much more likely they will deny a claim, I don't think the dealer without a Nissan rep can say hey your warranty has be voided. I went through this back in 04 with another manufacturer and had to sue under VA lemon law. What a nightmare of a process but I won and got a decent settlement, but the whole ordeal is down right dirty and under handed.

ohh alright gottcha. cuz i talked to the dealership where i got my Z and they told me if any mods were to be done to it, the warranty would be voided. but i had a feeling they had to prove that the after marker part was the cause of the issue.

but in case of an issue i guess i can just put the stock parts bacj on and then take it in lol :rofl2:

thanks though :)

My dealer is pretty strict and I know they're gonna give me a hard time and try to give me a bunch of crap about voiding my warranty. As a consumer there's not much we can do when that happens short of contacting a real Nissan rep and taking legal action. It's a giant headache and it might be easier if you can start using another dealer that is hopefully more mod friendly.

Had the windows tinted pretty soon after I picked it up.

had mine for about a little two months now, now starting to feel the modding itch, and thinking performance wise....(1. STILLEN gen 3 intake, and 2. possibly STILLEN catback Exhaust, at the same time ...definately getting the exhaust later if i cant get it now)

as of right now.... my Z is still bone stock... BUT intake will be FIRST, along with the Catback (if i can get it..fianicially)

thats what im hoping to get done soon, what % tint did you get? and what wheels are those? theyre nice man!!! props:tup:

Dude do the GTR start button too. $40, 30 minutes of your time tops, and it's a nice change to the interior. Easiest first mod out there

What...did you do... go and have a conversation about modding your Z to your dealership?

You talk about the dealership like it's your dad! :rofl2:

IMHO, unless you are going w/ forced induction the only other thing that I can think of that's bolt on that might give the dealership pause are possibly intake and test pipes.

yea, i have test pipes, however if i ever need to bring my car to the dealership ill just put the stock cats back in.

OMG. The mods are addicting. I cannot believe the amount of time going into looking and buying parts and this all the370's fault! :)
