New Guy

[AlexInkJunky]

hows it going, well let me get started, i recently bought a nissan 350Z, Ive been an Honda Inthusiest my whole life up until my 2000 Honda Civic SI got stolen, i had over $6000 in mods. I decided to just move on and get something better. So i went with the Nissan 350Z, i know squat about this car, i hope everthing goes well. Probly the only thing i know about this car is that its predecesor is the 300ZX and in JDM its the FairladyZ. Id like to learn as much about the car and eventually mod it out. it is completely stock.

Welcome to NICOclub!

let us know what you want to know - our General Info & FAQ thread has links to general info and frequently asked questions, about the Z33. By the way the Z33 is the 350z (Z32 = late model 300zx).

One thing you forgot to do was post a pic of your Z on your introduction (this thread).

NEW RIDE.

Cant get over how much better you new whip looks compared to the old. Nice

[rmezz13]

350z FTW!!!! i do like the look of the civic though - clean.... i really like the wheels!

[AlexInkJunky]

I do miss the Civic alot, but the new ride is so much funner. Need a new CD player cause this factory one sucks ***.

[rmezz13]

i miss my honda too, but i wouldn't trade my Z to have it back....



Then the loss..... (note: i let a friend drive it and this was the result)

[BlackSmoke]

I would not let the President drive my car. And good job rmezz13 never trade a Z for a honda... unless it is a bad a$$ concept car that THEY NEVER produce.

Hey what's up guys (and girls if any)? I'm a new Z33 owner as well...I havent had time to snap any pics yet but I will post up as soon as I do! I will eventually work my way around to the exterior but I want to get familiar with whats under the hood... i have noticed that our cars put out a crazy amount of heat! what are you guys doing to vent some of that? what grade of engine oil? (royal purple, mobil 1 etc..) i've been doing some reading about the kinetix V+ plenum...read that one guy gained 14rwhp from that alone?? wow!... I have a 2004 350...rated at 287hp...do we experience more of a loss at the crank due to heat soak? what's the estimated hp at the rear wheel stock?

Thanks guys! happy to be a part of the JDM world!

[rmezz13]

235ish rwhp......

Welcome to the club, and don't be afraid to start a new thread when you get the pictures of the ride!

Don't be a stranger.

[RoninZ33]

rmezz13..thanks for the welcome! As soon as I have some pics they will definitely go up. I definitely what to stay in tune to the forum...from what i see so far, you guys a pretty laid back and very helpful with questions and info... some tuning forums never miss the chance to bash about everything...ridiculous.

thanks man!
