Love my Z, but....

Where are all the clothes, jackets, chairs, jewlery, accessories, die cast cars, RC's, etc? There don't even seem to be all that many modifications out there you can get for the cars. Where are the clubs & enthusiasts? I am glad I found this site though. Maybe you guys & gals (actually where are all the female owners?) can tell me if I am just not looking in the right places.

If you want that you need to get a Vette or join the Harley Davidson crowd. For me, it was what bothered me the most when I had my Vette. Some people would come to car shows dressed with Corvette clothes from head to toe. Kinda tacky!

I now love the more subtle and much more exciting world of Z's and Japanese cars in general.

Thanks. I had looked at thezstore, meh, not a lot of options there. Glad to see more performance options on the other links than I had found elsewhere. I will start learning & doing my research.

I looked a bit there previously. Just started a thread. Hopefully any locals will reply.

Try contacting your local Nissan dealer. Mine has a catalogue they let me look through - it's mostly Nissan or Nismo gear, but there are certainly some Z34-specific products. I've had zero luck finding a copy of the catalogue online (theirs is pretty beat up), but they had no problem ordering products out of it for me last year.

Some of the products I've seen in the catalogue can be found on Nissan's website: http://www.nissancollections.com/_Sh...yMEdHgPSrBrItl

^^^this.
My dealership offers some Z clthing/hats/golfballs etc...however, your high interest in all things Z clothing may be a bit "off". Not many Z owners show up head to toe in Z merchandise...low key is the standard...

Welcome though. Z peeps are a tight crew.

For apparel, come to Zdayz next year and maybe the nismo tent will be selling stuff again! I got all kinds of goodies this year. Stuff I can't even find online. Also Zdayz is right by the tail of the dragon so you are close.

I'd love to attend an event like this. Where does one find info on the event?

For the record I am female, I know I am a female playing in a male dominated arena. I have no problem with that. I have been competing with men all my life. I simply love my Z. Therefor I'd like to have a nice Jacket, some good looking shirts and some collectables. I am here to learn. Just like I had to learn when I got my Camaro & started modifying it, joining clubs & doing a little racing, cruising & making friends. I was simply disappointed that there was so little out there & hoped I could count on comrades here to point me in the direction of other places that were not showing up on your typical internet searches.

I'm glad some of you have been helpful. I'm a newby here & learning. I will need lots of help from you guys as I do but trust me, I will learn.

good for you girl! You will see there is a lot of cool, helpful people here. As mentioned by others, there are quite a few Z events during the year where you can meet new people, find Z gear, etc
