So what happens when you do all of these mods (breathing mods/oil cooler for example) and then your car suffers from a massive oil consumption problem like mine did? That's one of the main reasons I haven't done any mods to this car yet... and the same reason I didn't mod my 350z within the first year.... I wanted to make sure it was solid before I started making alterations. My 350z turned out to be solid as a rock. The 370... not so much.

So last weekend I just bought a new black 2010 Coupe touring, sports and nav packages.
Other than window tint I dont plan on doing any type of appearance modifications to the car.
So with this information in mind, my question to you guys is what is the first few things I should do to this car? Keep in mind that I dont want to void the warranty!

Thanks
Ed

I like exhaust as a first mod. The car sounds entirely too tame from the factory.

370ZBG · 03-19-2011, 10:18 AM

Yeah I was thinking intake and exhaust. I believe neither one of those should affect the warranty on the car.

ClearBra on the hood, bumper and mirrors. Do it before before the chips hit. Don't put it off, it will only cost you more for chip removal as the prep to the ClearBra.

I haven't done any performance mods yet, but I'm planning on getting HFC's as my first mod. It's not too expensive and gives you good gains too. If you can do the full exhaust, go far that and just have HFC/test pipes/headers and intakes as you next two mods after that. Good luck and Congrats on the new Z
