Looks good. They aren't necessarily "butt heavy," they are well-balanced compared to most cars. What kind of fuel economy are you looking at with one of those? I drove an '04 back when it was new and it had the sticker on it but I don't remember (20/26, I think).

mark, you're as old as you feel! or as your car makes you feel! lol.

thanks, man - i'm hoping this winter was the last time i drove her in the snow. it's been a while since i drove a rear-wheel drive car. she does better than i expected though - surprisingly, as well as my last car - which was a front wheel drive G6! that thing was HORRIBLE in the snow. made no sense, but it was true.

that sounds about right - i'll have to dig my sticker out to be sure. those numbers fly out the window with my lead foot though... heh.

right you are...you GET A COOKIE:yipi:

hey scott, how much $$$ are you planning on spending on upgrades?....house?...arm...leg...soul?:diablo:

Very nice Scott, Those Z's are a nice car. A buddy of mine has on '03 Track Model that i play mechanic for the upgrades. So far we have added a larger plenum, nismo CAI, Nismo catback, Nismo strut bar, technosquare ecu reflash. he just bought a greddy TT kit and has sold the catback today. So I have some wrench time coming and then hook him up with Marco at Billet Design for a custom 3" 304 stainless, mandrel bent exhaust.

oh dicky, you just rattled off my wishlist, lol. but... larger plenum? as in the whole upper and lower unit? or just a plenum spacer? seeing the rest of the list, it's probably the whole unit. i just got a Z1 plenum spacer and a JWT popcharger (it's just a CAI with a heat shield), and i have some resonated test pipes on the way. eventually, i'm getting new wheels/tires, and will probably lower it (coil over shocks). a new exhaust system, someday. then an ECU flash. a twin turbo kit would be sweeeeet, but i don't have that kind of cash. GULP - your friend has some deep pockets! those mods you listed are just about half the value of the car, lol.

The plenum is the whole unit with a polished alu top.

He bought the greddy kit used for $1200 ;)

not a bad price at all...

if your pockets are real deep (about 5K) and your REALLY adventurous, get a pectel ECU and tune it yourself. hehe but really....capability is ENDLESS

wow, no kidding. not a bad price at all!

the worst part of the technosquare ecu flash is that it's not customizable...except by them. but man, i can afford $500 for a reflash much more than the units where you can tune yourself!

dicky, out of all of those upgrades, what made the most noticeable change?
