Even a 240 or 280Z to screw around and learn with temporarilly, will keep your 370 in better shape.

You do not need any mods yet either. You will not even appreciate them until you get a few more miles under your belt.

Listen to some older, more experienced drivers and you will become old and experienced too. Not all my buddies are here today, because we were you and bulletproof, and didn't need a bunch of old farts telling us anything.

Learn from other peoples mistakes.

Good luck
