And the car ran like a dream. One thing that i noticed he does that alot of other places tend to omit is he aligns the car with you behind the driver seat( aka takes your weigth into consideration) he also charges reasonable prices.

Great Info, Thanks.
I need to do Front Tires first, then Exhaust,researching that now.. Like the ArK Grips, then Coilovers

ARK are pretty good in pricing right now.

If you can, you might be able to find in below $1400.

You can get Ark for less than $1200. Agency power is also a great option, one I really like myself. That goes for $800-$900 now

Don't get agency power. its super loud but as MrSir said, its super droney without the silencer (and whats the fun in that?)

Whitehead has ARK GRIP for less $1400. They do cash pricing also.

I run BORLA, quiet and no drone when idle, wakes up when you punch it.

Stillen is another good option IMO, it's a little louder and gives it an exotic sound.

ARK is great, silent during idle, sounds when you drive, and wakes up when you punch it.

There are many many more, how about AAM Short Tail? Anybody with any experience with that?

It looks like a price competitive option. Not sure about performance.

But performance is all Butt Dyno, unless you are really building a track or autox car, then seconds really do count. Otherwise you wouldn't know and feel the difference IMO.

check out fredbeansparts. email jomer@fredbeans.com if you want pricing for AP. I don't think their ARK price is great though

YE the agency exhaust is probably one of the loudest out there. At first it gave me headaches because of the drone. But ones it gets worked in, it goes down abit. I myself like the more deep droney sound better than the high rasp sound. So its definetely something to consider when choosing an exhaust. Cuz well at the end of the day its more for the exhaust note than for performance really.

if you are up for one of the best coilover for the 370z without having to spend a ton of money... I still have my Kw3 for sale .

at 1400$ shipped (paypal fee included , no tax) its hard to beat.

FS ; My KW3 are now on sale !

Anyone have any experience or recommendations in regards to mods and factory warranty? This is the only thing that is causing me to delay any mods.

Bolt-ons are ok.

But when you start messing with the motor SC/Turbo then that's when warranty goes out the window.

Or when you start customizing headlight housing, that voids it's warranty.

Tuning the engine, though you can get away with it with a flash back to stock.

I have heard conflicting stories about this one. They can tell if it has been flashed

You are right, there are conflicting stories about it.

I'm trying to get a hold of the Nismo Tech at Woodbine nissan to see if they can flash it for me to keep it under warranty.
