[Official] Which 1st mod(s) for my Z thread.

ZCarMan · 08-06-2011, 03:07 PM

Welcome and congratulations on your new Z! There is a place here in Maryland, USA called AAM Competition that produces a 2.5 inch true dual exhaust for the 370Z. No issues with the height and scraping. They are a forum sponsor on here as well. Besides them, there are many types to choose from, just search the threads for exhausts and you find a ton of various types. Exhaust is usually a first major mod for folks and the 370Z.

Coilovers and spacers for a great stance =)

Picking up our 370 towards the end of this week, the bf doesn't want to make any changes for at least 2 months..

That said, what would be the first minor changes that you'd make to it?

I really want to change the badge to the FairLady Z badge, and have seen some really cool DIY's on that here.

And he wont tint it for a while either.. but 70% is pretty standard here,although i'm thinking to take permission for a blue / silver mirrored tint. - do you think it would be too much?

1. Oil cooler! Overheating problems are the #1 fun drainer, change oil to Redline or whatever good synthetic you want

2. Decide if you will stay N/A OR eventually boost

2a. N/A get an intake g3 are arguably best, or get what you want.

2b. Boost later, just get drop ins for now.

3. Decide on how you want to ride, low for looks or just improve handling.

3a. Low for looks ,get some good coilovers drop it how you want, recommend getting some camber arms too with this choice or you will have bald tires faster.

3b. Even better handling , swift springs - small drop better springrate and better than stock. And or swaybars - hotchkis are good.

4. How loud do you want your car to be and how much more power you want to squeeze out . AKA. Exausts, too many variables to list ,check out the tech area with exaust clips to see where you want to be and what you want to gain.

5. Rest of small mods, pullys , cams, etc for the last little bit of power.

Zythaxus · 08-01-2013, 02:27 AM

Or you can go for all exterior looks, for a more unique look. But much more expensive per change

Riptide67 · 08-24-2013, 11:09 PM

Mine had a nice dark tint when I bought it.

My mods so far are:

1. Smoked tail lights (left reverse clear)
2. Fast Intentions TDX CBE w/12 inch resonators
3. K&N Drop ins

Not sure what I want to do next, but I have a new set of tail lights coming on the 26th for a project.

mag_black · 08-27-2013, 12:07 AM

1. Post MAF tubes and drop-ins
2. Swifts
3. Exhaust
4. Camber arms
5. Stillen G3's, Test pipes, UpRev

That's it for this year -- maybe intake manifold and hold off until next year for looks. Maybe I'll bite the bullet and boost. I can only imagine how fun this car will be w/ 450-500 whp under the hood.

/Angelo350Z/ · 08-27-2013, 12:12 AM

1. 20/25 wheel spacers
2. Swift springs
3. FI CBE

In that order, or at the same time.
