Things NOT to do to teh Z:

fart-can exhaust
big wing
spinners
Anything that detracts from the cars original lines and appeal.

That's all I can think of at the moment.

On what you can/cannot do to your own car, just enjoy the car and add what you think works well with the car. If you have to ask yourself what other think of what you added to maybe you should not do it? Maybe not because it is good/bad but because you are more concerned about what others think.

I say if you makes you happy, it's your car... do what you want. But for godsakes... if you're gonna buy wheels.. BUY ALL FOUR! I've seen so many (honduhs mainly) with only 2 aftermarket wheels and 2 stockers on the car. WHAT is this about??

I never got this, I can understand if you are rolling on a spare/back up because you just blew a tire, but I have talked to a few people and they say it is because they will buy the other two next month. I just reply, why not wait to put them all on together, then I get this look:

Why the hell would you put a bunch of stickers on your car ANYWAY? I mean are these companies paying you to advertise?? MAYBE if I was sponsored but otherwise... noway.

for my 370z, i would like to keep it "as stock looking as possible." it looks good....to begin with.....

plus, who gives $hit what other ppl do with their car and money. they can defile all they want - it's a good laugh...... i just could not stop laughing with the 350z "SUPERCHARGED."

my first impression was "what the *uck!" to begin with.........but i got a good laugh at it...

it's just a difference of opinion and preference....... what is right is only right to oneself, not to others........ bottom line: live and enjoy *^^*

and, if you do not have a Z, what gives to say anything unpleasant about a Z......

just curious as to what those two, who taped the first clip, have under the hood...

if you drive a shitty car, don't make any negative remarks on a nicer car, even if it's a ricer.... just my opinion.....

it's like non-smokers telling smokers to quit, for it is BAD for your health.........btw i am a non-smoker.... *^^*

Ricers are people with bad taste, attitude, low intelligence, insecure and shallow dumb f**ks with no idea.

I guess I'm a ricer then because I have 5 percent tint, and I am thinking about modding my headlights with landing strips or the ironman idea.

I figure to each their own.
