Beautiful Car. Thanks for the review!

Man!!!! Thanks for the review. I was trying to find out about the sunglasses compartment and center console compartment and you just answered my question. I guess the only gun I can put out there is my Ruger LCP. I got a Bersa Thunder 380 Plus that might fit there because it is about the same size as your Kimber. We will see

You'd probably have better luck with the glove box, but even that's a little iffy. Plus, if you're like me, you probably don't like having to reach over that far for your weapon.

Ya'll allowed to carry weapons?

Well i'm used to rev well below 4k on my sexy, super fast saturn. I usually rev to 2500 to 3k, so that won't be a problem when I ever get one.

By the way does the 370z come with a dvd, kind of like a manual. :bowrofl:

STILLEN : STILLEN Generation 3 Ultra Long Tube Dual Intake Kit

Damn a 22 gain at the fly wheel. I didn't realize air intakes will get you that much hp gain. How much is it? Is there any other intakes comparable or better than this one?
As for and exhaust, is there any out there that will sound really good and loud. Something that sound like a f1 car?

I also wanted to know is it worth to get port and polish done to the 370z? How much hp can you get by doing that and what is the cost (if you know that is).
I'm jealous that you got one. I'm hoping to get one around 2010 when the second gens come out. I want to do some mods as well, but this will be my first brand new ride.

Yes, it does. I suppose I should watch mine.

I think Stillen lists the price. $458 or something like that (?) As for your other questions, you'd probably be better off posting them to the Intake/Exhaust forum (look under Tech area from main page). In fact, there's a thread dedicated to the Stillen intake:

I think i read it in this forum that the dvd's cost like 120 bucks. Is that true?

Mine came with the manual. All it is is a DVD version of the Quick Reference guide (the normal paper one is also still included). So I guess it was either free with purchase, or the cost was built into the price of the car, depending on how you want to look at it.

By the way, Semtex lives in Atlanta, folks. For those that are not familiar with that city, it is NOT the friendliest in the U.S. LoL! I used to go to Morrow a lot for business conferences and let me tell ya...

Parts of Morrow = G-h-e-t-t-o.

But then again, it is not quite as bad as Bankhead. :tup:

Most importantly, I'm glad you're ok, Semtex. Just a couple feet to the left and you probably would have suffered some permanent and life changing damage.

Anyway, thanks for this thread. :shakes head: You have part of me reconsidering buying a Z (which I am sure wasn't the intention), but maybe buying the second year + models will address some of the issues you've pointed out? HMMMMMMMMMMM... :ughdance:
