I have had my Z now for about 3 months but it seems like just yesterday I brought it home. The excitement seems to nve fade which tells me I made the right choice. I'm a first time owner of a Z car and loving it! It only took me a few weeks and I was looking at what I could do to upgrade it. I would love to put in the Stillen supercharger or wait for the FI twin turbo coming out for it but I'm thinking it may be more money that I can get into it for now. However I have already ordered my early Christmas; getting the FI TDX cat back with FI high-flow cats and a Gen3 from Stillen with Setrab racing oil cooler. Will be adding the ceramic headers as well from Stillen or FI. Love this car!!!

Welcome! And yes, the Z never stops to amaze me every time being almost 7 months now I have owned it, whether it is going out on the weekends, or driving to work, the fun factor is def there.

Congrats on the purchase! But just a word of advice, figure out everything you want to do BEFORE you start buying parts. Reason being, if you're planning to go FI, and more specifically TT, then don't buy the headers. They'll be replaced by your TT anyway. Just something to think about.


Now, or it didn't happen.

Actually when I mentioned "FI" I was meaning Fast Intentions and not forced induction, my bad...however that is good advice and I had thought about sometime in the near future to go with a turbo/super charger and would not want the headers in that case so thanks!

Well then if by FI you mean Fast Intentions, then you're already making good choices. If you want to do the headers (which I have and <3) you'll only be able to do the Stage 1 SC kit. The stage 2 is 'claimed' not to work with the FI LTH's but this has not been factually proven and wasn't claimed by Tony. So it's not to say you can't get them... Just don't want you to spend money on a part to have to remove it later.
