Now the only one left stock are the visor lights, but those are too hard to do..

Took it into my local Nissan dealership to fix a rattle that they created. I had them install a JDM turn signal stalk to operate my European fog light- it was the first one they ever did, so I guess they messed up a bit. My loaner car is a Nissan Altima 2.5S, and man is it Boring! My Z isnt a whole lot louder when casually cruising around, nor is the ride quality much worse. Boy, does this Altima feel slow! Plus, it's hard getting used to fellow drivers not rubbernecking in admiration at seemingly ever traffic signal!

Let me know how those lights turn out my Bruddah... I've been itching to do that mod myself... Now if only I didn't have to wait until December for my Fast Intentions exhaust!

Let me know if that new air filter makes a noticeable difference. I'm entertaining the thought of doing the same thing to my beast.

I'm surprised more Z's aren't debadged. It looks so much cleaner, IMO.

I'll be debadging it as soon as I get mine.

I'm not really bothered by the baging. Though sometimes I wish on the front It was the z logo instead of tthe Nissan logo.
