I agree i like the stock ones alot, i dont actually think i have seen any aftermarket ones that are in my opinin better or even as good as the stock ones, i think those ones might end up making the car look a bit ricy and cheap. I also think evildky is right in that they are illegal because of how bright they are if that matters at all but im not positive.

Man, if I could do it all again I would just get the GTO covers on the stock lights. I brought the Altezza lights from ebay and I've had the worst problem with sealing. They let in all sorts of moisture. I've baked them, re sealed them and all met with no results. Those lights are hit or miss, but it's your car and your vision. Do you homie.

if your going with new tail lights just get the stock LEDs there the only thing that wont drop your resale and anything else is just lame

I think these are my favorite ones.

Basically, they're just stock with a clear cover, but I think it looks really clean with the right setups.

The only true JDM Fairlady Z tail lights are factory JDM tail lights and they fit the cars perfectly, light and last as the OEM lights do, and are the same quality as far as not taking on water, as the OEM ones. They are $450+ though. But you get what you pay for. I am going for the JDM ones because my Z is white and they look great on the white ones, but right now i am spending money on HP. I don''t want my car to look faster than it is ya know.

They have them on Motorsportauto.com for $249 right now! I am assuming you are talking about the nismo cold air intake?

OMFG PROOF THAT RYAN WAS A N000B ONCE!!!

anyways I had a question and tried using search for an answer but failed miserably, I recently ordered a pair of 2006 L.E.D tail lights for my 2005 (both had retarded seals and let moisture in, especially the left one.) I was wondering what modification you are supposed to do to be able to hook up the 2006 tails an 05??

HELPS.
