12K!?! That's nuts. How many miles are on your current Z?

hmmmm so wat do u think?

I think what you are saying is the dealer wants your trade + 12K to buy a touring model. That would be a terrible deal and a waste of money.

For 12K you could put new wheels and tires on. Replace your seats, and probably even put in a nice sound system with navigation.

yup thats wat im trying to say 12+ my car to trade for a tour/sportpackage. but like u said ur right i can do all those for less than 12. but im just seeing wat ppl think also. i wish i had snco rev match only think i really want. but i guess its not a big deal not to have it.

by any chance would u know anyweb site that sell 370z stuff like exhaust and intake etc etc... i tried googling but i only get forums and not stores. and also a good website for rims and tire.

all you gotta do is get the wheels, spoiler, and breaks and you have what you want. forget about the nav and all that crap. this is race car, not luxury car.

There are lots of good places to get stuff for your Z. I've been very happy with the Stillen stuff - been around on the Nissan sceen for a LONG time.

You have no authority in this forum.

^Don't listen to him. Never. This guy is bragging on this forum that he's some specialized race driver and crashed a Z. At best he's just a troll/liar.

Yeah, SRM is just integrated, that's the only thing you can't replace by getting better aftermarket parts. You'll just have to learn to heel toe! It's a good skill to know anyway.

Stillen has always been very good with Nissan, and because they specialize specifically in Nissans and few other makes, they'll often get the best fits, most gains, and best customer support, versus going, say, HKS, and having to deal with people that only help with relations and returns. Even technical support would have a hard time since HKS works with almost every car make and model. You could go IMPUL, since they specialize in Nissans and Nissans only. However, they're just expensive, but you can be sure of quality. I don't think you'll get much in the way of customer support since I don't think they have a North America branch. You'll just have to work with a Nissan shop.

Rims/wheels you just have to find. There's thousands of designs, all of which you could fit onto a Z (within reason). If you want a start, a lot of people here are going into Rays Engineering wheels, like their Gram Lights, or especially the VOLKs. Tires you also have to as well. Yokohama, Bridgestone, Pirelli, etc., there are a lot. The sports package Z comes with Bridgestone Potenza tires (pretty good), I think the NISMO Z comes with Yokohama Advans. I forget what the non-sports Z comes with.

You can always just ask, we're happy to help!

Might be possible. I'll definitely look that up, and I think it's just an ECU programming (since the entire car is basically a computer, lol).
