2011 370Z Owner from Australia :) (Photos Inside)
 

Hey Guys,

I recently purchased a 2011 370Z in Carbon Silver in Coupe Manual. Here in Australia as some of you may know, we only get the option to opt for Auto or Manual...

Sat nav, leather, spoiler, premium brakes, 19" rays (only in 2010) are standard.. so no options :mad:

To give you an idea of what cars I come from, I recently had a 2010 Mitsubishi Evolution X and modified it to the point were I was satisfied.. yet never really liked it as much as my older 350Z... Yeah it handled well and was great at the track.. But the interior was crap, only looked good from the outside once I installed some AME TM-02's and Cusco Coilovers.. even then every time I'd see a stock 370Z drive past me I would be sad haha..

So anyway I got a friend of friend who fell in love with the Evo and decided to sell it for a great price.. next day went to Nissan and ordered a Z :) Hopefully I made the right choice from a quick aggressive AWD evo to a sexy coupe RWD V6..


Some photos of my older cars and the new Z.

Hope to learn a little more about the Z and try source some decent aftermarket parts to those who are willing to ship to Australia :tup:

Cheers, Charlie

Nice selection of cars, welcome to the forum!!

Welcome and nice lineup

awesome cars! welcome to the community!

The EVO looks really nice but the Z looks better! Congratulations! What are your plans for her?

awesome cars. so in AU they only sell fully loaded nissans? i like :)

Very nice:tup:

Nice Rides and a great looking Z
Welcome and congrats. :hello:

Welcome to the forums! Wow, you didn't keep the Evo for long. What did you not like about it? Well, congrats on the new Z. Fully loaded...the best way to have it!

Welcome. More pics :)

Plans will be a decent exhaust, (Akropovic or HKS), Wheels and KW V3's..

Basically yeah. :)

Evo was great as a track car... thats about it :driving:

The interior was ugly and hard.. Exterior was ugly until I got some AME's and Cusco Coilovers..

Performance and handling of the evo was much better than the Z though.. Until you supercharge a Z I suppose..

More to come :)

Congrats man. Your the first bloke from Perth I've seen on here.

Don't worry, the handling of the Z is fantastic on track once you get it sorted. I'd take it over AWD magic any day. Coilovers and sway bars and you'll be a happy little sandgroper.

Thanks Chris :)

I had every cusco component on the evo x which consequently made it far superior to the handling when stock..
But I'll see in time with the Z :)

Sounds like you used to live in Australia :excited:

Yep, born and raised in Perth, lived just a stones throw from the Mount Henry Bridge and the Canning river (the rest of my family still lives there). I live in the US now, still go back and visit occasionally.

Welcome!
