I'm not a big fan of silver, however I did see a Nismo in person in silver and it looked pretty awesome with the red trim. That midnight purple would be pretty tempting though.
One more quick question, was the ride stiffness the same as OEM or less? It may seem weird to some, but I like the stiffness of the stock OEM feel myself, wouldn't want to lose that.
The car looks awesome! I actually like the looks of slotted over drilled. Did you have to get any other hardware to get your car in spec with regards to the alignment? If I remember, I think you have lowering springs.

Did you notice the difference in terms of less weight with the Paragon rotors? I remember when I put the Z1 2 piece rotors on my old 370z Nismo, the car felt a bit more nimble.
I'm thinking of getting the Paragon rotors all the way around. Seems to me this would be the better option than...
Hurry up and get that thing broken in! As soon as mine hit 1200 miles the first thing I did was test the launch control. You will love it! Be careful though, you don't want such a great car in a ditch. Leave the traction control on lol!
The only thing I've noticed with the Nismo is that sometimes from a first gear launch 2nd gear doesn't hit or hook up as hard as rolling from 2nd. Any hit while rolling from 2nd on in sport + mode hits fast and hard, and is perfect.
Other than this, I have no issues with the transmission. I...
After installing the Stillen competition exhaust awhile back, I had a terrible buzzing vibration what sounded like it was coming from the dash.
I took it to the dealer and it ended up being that the lane camera covers were rattling due to improper sealing. At least that got fixed. I do get the...
Did you get your exhaust installed yet? I've got the Stillen comp and it sounds great! Only problem I have is it drones in the higher gears at low rpms and produces a rattling on the right side of my dash, but that may be a different issue.
But the sound is fantastic for the price. Also check...
I'm just wondering if coolant got into the engine. I would hope that just opening up the exhaust to 2.5 would not cause this. Going with the Nismo exhaust would that be to much back pressure coming from 2.5 DP to 2.25? I'm just guessing at this point.
Maybe tuning after any change in exhaust...

I'm definitely not going to trade for the 27 version. With the way these car's value has tanked and the fact that I'm not incredibly loaded financially. However, hopefully if my car blows up it will be in the warranty period.
After that I will look into maybe upgrading to better turbos, oil...
