June, My 12' 370Z
 
What's going on everyone!

I'm born and raised from NorCal, but I've been stationed at a few parts of the US, right now I'm in the Las Vegas area.

I've already made a intro thread with a little history about me and my past cars (http://www.the370z.com/new-370z-owne...ner-ca-nv.html), so this one's going to go solely towards all the maintenance and mods that I do.

So far......

June:
Bought brand new 9JUN13, 71 miles

Mod List:
Tint
Pioneer double din + steering control and ipod integration
Invidia Gemini CBE
K&N Typhoon intakes
20MM adapters all 4 corners


And a few pictures:

Installed the cleanest looking double din I could find, mainly needed it to clear up the "static" from the Aux port, be able to select my music easily without mounting an iPod on the dash, and to be able to connect my iPhone to watch things.

Ordered the K&N typhoon, brand new without the box off eBay for $185, nearly half off, figured why not. Not sure on negatives or positives, but the stock units look wimpy.

Sorry for the iPhone pics, I'll take some HD photos once I put the 20mm adapters on.

the auto gear box cover pops off with 4 tabs. i then used 6 self tapping screws to screw into the boot cover, then used a die grinder to cut off and smooth the ends of the screws.. much easier mod if you buy the manual shift boot cover, simple plug and play, i didn't wanna spend the $50+ nor did i want to wait.

these aren't my photos..

Mil, Army Guard... to make it more confusing, I'm deployed as a Civilian Contractor right now :tup:

Zbrah 07-17-2013 11:53 PM

That thing looks bad *** man, I wonder if it'll fit on a manual shifter I'd get one as well.

i dont think it will. the auto trans knobs slip on and then clips hold them in place, where as a manual will just be a twist on.
