Are subtle upgrades such as lighter tires and exhaust worth the money?

It's almost Halloween time. You deserve the 1 inch candy corn instead.

Actually Im more interested with the 2” Christmas candy cane as it curves upwards and hit the right G forces!

Makes you scream like Santa Claus being wiped by Rudolf!

Yeap, grab a set of SSR wheels. If you want to splurge, get a set of Forgelines. Fleabay only has cheap junk. Save up and get what you want. If you like HKS, get that.

Lets gooooo. I love being a part of history.

Now listen, let me give you my USD $0.02 before I go and the rest of this thread turns to sh!t because no one can play nice.

You sir, OP, are acting like an ***. Quit attacking everyone on the thread because we said you might want to steer your head from cheap garbage. We all own the "same car" (engine) so lets work together rather than taking a fat dump on each other.

Your mod plans are garbage. I am a college student, and I have to budget for the right additions to my Z. But that doesn't mean I buy e-bay exhausts and plastidip my sh!t to stray from the crowd. I wait. The great thing about waiting is that you get what you want in the long run.

So please, OP, take a breath and wait; you can stand to be vanilla for a little bit longer.

I've lurked this forum for two years and just recently have become more active and engaging with the community. They are a bunch of great guys (or gals). While I lurked, I read their signatures, looked at their galleries, checked the "Parts for Sale" thread, the "DIY" thread, and everything inbetween. When I got the money, I bought the quality part.

Treat the Z, G37, or anything VQ related, like a ******* queen. Don't give her knock off ****. You will see that in ALL of our signatures, we share product brands. That's because more often than not, they are the better brands. Lets start there.

Be patience bro. You were a nice lad seeking knowledge--like we all did when we started. Let's keep that up and not get upset when someone says you are interested in cheap garbage.

You asked everyone’s opinion about your plans...You will get positive and negative comments because we all have different taste. Take the good advice and throw the things you don’t like but you can be discrete and be thankful nevertheless.

As Bruce Lee has said “Be Like Water my friend”

OZ is just offering you a better options or route to take.

All suggestions are good. If its not applicable to your taste... its fine...whatever serves your budget and what makes it unique to yourself matters.

But of course we admire builds with class...I know someone here spent 100K on his car and won multiple awards at Zday and Z Nationals. Would I follow that route of course not. I believe then my Z looks better... but it only won 3rd place at Znationals. Just because for a $6 red pin stripe!
Lol

WOW, you put your car in a car show. Not me, I will pass. I always build mine the way I like them. If you like it, great. If not, oh well.

Well that escalated slowly.

OptionZero is a pediatric oncologist with the worst bedside manner - "Your options? ZERO!!"

OP had (in the beginning) some good questions, but has a thin wallet and a thinner skin.

Ya'll need to calm down. Noobs have noob questions and need some leeway to learn. Noobs also need to not sh't the bed when someone is mean to them on teh internetz.

In hingsight, I was a bit rude. You were hounding on OZ for "editing his post" so I'm gonna stay clear of doing that myself, in which case: I said what I said...but I'm a noob here too (somewhat).

Do what makes you happy, but let's not rip on others for giving you their two cents on what might work best for you/look best for you.

Don't sell yourself short. Don't sell the G short either.
