1/4atatime's build journey

1/4atatime

So I've had my car for about 6 months now and I figured this quarantine would give me time to document everything about my car. So a backstory (you can skip if you want it's a long story) of my username, what got me into cars, and why I chose the Z. When I was really young I was staying at a hotel across from a movie theater on the night of the release of tokyo drift. All these cars showed up to the movie theater and for 30 solid minutes I just watched cars pile into the parking lot one after another after another. I had never seen so many cars in my life and being a young little kid I was amazed. I ask my dad why are all these cool cars at the movies so late at night. He told me they were showing a midnight release of tokyo drift which was a movie in series that was extremely popular with car enthusiast. From that night on I loved cars and years later when I got a little older I watched that movie and for some reason the 350z caught my eye it was some how this aggressive machine that could be so graceful sliding around turns and from then on I had to have a Z. Fast forward to my first job out of college I have an amazing job and financial stability so I decided it's time to buy me a sports car. So I started looking and test driving. I test drove lots of different cars but I knew I wanted the Z even if it is outdated and underpowered compared to stuff out now. The car had something I felt every other car lacked a soul. The first time I got in it and mashed the throttle I had a smile a mile wide. A few months go by and I find one a guy is getting rid of it to buy something else and it's in fantastic condition. Less than 10k miles, one owner, regular maintenance, 10 year 120k mile extended warranty, great condition, only issue was some curb rash on the wheel. I bought it and took it home on November 16th 2019
