Default Nissan Shifted

Hello all. I recently purchased my first Z - 2013 GM Base 7AT. This is my second Nissan in a row. I had traded in a mid 2000's xterra. That was one of the most rock-solid cars I have ever owned. I don't know if many of you can relate but I seem to alternate owning sports car and then the daily driver family wagons. In the end always coming back to the sports car! ha ha.

I have danced around with a few other vehicles but never found a good fit. Acura RSX, F-Body GM cars etc.

The Z is by far one of the better rounded cars I have owned and I can't tell you how amped up I am about having joined an active car community with a robust after-market.

Nothing sucks more than looking for parts for an unpopular car.

Anyway, I have spent a lot of time staring at the car lately and I am still not sure how I feel about the 2013 fascia update and the 18 inch OEM wheels.

They sometimes look ok from certain angles and other times I want to replace them in a heart beat. Very on the fence about it. Kind of reminds me of how people can have a distinct "good side" when taking photos.

However, the rest of the car sold me and I saw this as an opportunity to have a new "canvas" to work on.

I am starting to mod with the usual cosmetic changes and want to see how the car looks after a slight drop and adding spacers.

FYI the forum has been a tremendous resource for a new owner and I thank everyone for sharing their knowledge and experiences!
