I picked my Z up in NJ and ran 93 until 93 wasn’t available as I traveled west. My butt dyno doesn’t have anything but the car definitely ran smoother on 93. We can only get 91 in western Colorado. Does anyone have any info on octane boosters or point me to some reliable info?

Thank you, I appreciate the reply’s, I understand the reasoning behind your choices. More to think about while I collect the $. LOL that’s half the fun of modding these cars!

Katum68, I’m going with the aluminum oil pan next week and Nismo sway bars after that. I love the “Dan Gurney on the highways”! That’s what I’m looking for! LOL Kacka, any reason you went with Stillen sways over Nismo or the Mishimoto pieces over Nismo? My attraction to Nismo is that it was...

SFC Retired. Armor with a couple yrs DS at Jackson. Good to meet you! What was your MOS? Where’d you serve? PM me, I always enjoy hearing from soldiers! I was at Riley, Jackson, Stewart, Korea couple different times in Casey, and a couple stints at Lewis, I retired out of there in 2005. I think...

Thanks for posting my list of future mods!! LOL Seriously this is like 90% of what I want to do to my car. I have a few things on your list and am headed for more as $ becomes available. What suspension item made the best bang for the buck improvement? I’m springing for the oil pan next Wednesday.

Google found a speed quote from Nissan of 136 for the 24 Sport, 155 for the Performance and 173 for the Nismo. Once the warranty is done I’ll make sure mine runs faster than 136 😁 It wasn’t sluggish as I pushed it, plenty of power the whole way. No handling problems either, it was glued and...

24 Sport M/T guy here, I’ve hit 134 mph / 215 kph and had pedal left. it’s absolutely not limited to 180kph / 111 mph

I’m on the Western Slope and it’s pretty thin over here too, Ive heard there’s 3 in GJ but I haven’t seen anything other than mine. Good luck!

I’ve got a 24 Sport, the rears were worn out at 9000 also, my fronts were still in pretty good shape. I had the rears removed, the fronts removed and put on the rear. I had Michelin PS4’s put on the front, I can’t afford to ditch tires with good tread. I’ll stay out of the canyons for a bit...

It looks like it was designed to have Brake vents there. Anyone know of a vent set up for that spot?

Borla makes the Nismo street. I’ve got the Nismo Street and there’s no drone at any rpm. It gets noisy when you push it and still keeps the neighbors happy when you drive normal. I think it’s a great balance of the two.

I have oem front and rear mud flaps. If I had to do it again I wouldn’t put the fronts on. They don’t add to the aesthetic and are worthless as mud flaps. The rear looks great, actually help and aren’t too bad to install. You have to drill but they give you templates. I’ll be watching this...

I’ve got a Sport, I think that’s the Gun Metal performance they had out at Red Rock Nissan. Mine is gunmetal too, I haven’t met the owner. I’m over by D and 30rd, we ought to have a coffee or beer sometime. You choice, I’ll buy.

I feel your pain!! Great post , thanks for sharing. Reminds me I’m not the only one that has “those” kind of days!!!😂

Good for you. I live in Western Colorado, I’d trade no cold for the green in a heartbeat!!! Enjoy
