Default Just picked up Nismo 0864

FINALLY after 9 weeks of waiting, my 2013 Gun Mettalic Nismo/Bose arrived last Thursday … Number 0864. A month ago while waiting for delivery, I gave the dealer my Mower Deck Front License Mount, a plate for the safety check sticker (It's a Hawaii-thing) and instructions to be sure ensure the extended storage switch is in and to remove the front spring spacers.
When I got to the dealer Friday, they did everything right. Front plate and safety check kits were mounted as per my request, and there was a plastic bag inside containing the spring spacers. Next thing I did, before signing any papers was to go over the paint quality thoroughly. After all I've read on this site about paint problems with GM Z-cars, I was scared shitless. The paint was perfect… in and outdoors.
Coolest thing they did was keep it in a special garage where they only keep Nismo Z's and GTRs vs. parked out on the lot somewhere.
Now, because I had to wait over 2 months for this, I have boxes of new stuff waiting to be installed, and more to order. First will be tint, filter mag, K&N oil filter and Redline oil. Then my new clutch spring (thanx to LMBmikeZ), and a Z1 stainless clutch hose kit. Got a GTR starter button and interior light kit, a bunch of EVO CF goodies to go in. I'm gonna keep it NA so a Stillen G3 CAI will be on this summer after it's broken-in, followed FI CBE and 12" resonators and Uprev tune. Thanx to the info from dansacing I'll be ordering Work Gnosis GS-2 Wheels and Michelins in a few days. Thanx to AK and everybody on this site. You've all been excellent in getting pointed in the right direction for getting my car set up. First pix attached
