Thanks for the welcome guys. Sincerely appreciate it. Been looking around the forums since joining. Not a good idea. I went from, “I’m just doing some light modding” to “Wow, I need to get that, that and that”. Browsing here is costly
Anyway, on a completely unrelated note. When my son turned 16 last year, we bought him his dream car which I hated, (2003 Mitsubishi Evo). I know, not a good first car for a kid but I’m a car guy and he’s a car kid. He drove for a couple of months before the clutch went out, which he replaced by himself which impressed me. Then some other thing happened so he pulled the motor, fixed the issue, (or so he thought). Painted the engine bay, did a wire tuck, etc. Put it all back together and that lasted a month before sitting in my garage for another 2 months before he was finally able to sell it.
So, we found an extremely clean low miles 2005 350Z Touring. Stock except a very nice sounding cat back GReddy exhaust. Hopefully he learned his lesson from the last car and just enjoys having a sweet car at 17 yrs old. At least he’s part of the Nissan family now.
