  1. "Everyone Is Wrong About The Z’s Grille, Nissan Got It Right The First Time"

    I've said it before but I can't remember if it was here or on FB or somewhere else, so I'll say it again... While the rectangular grill shape may be attributed to an older relative of our cars, I personally see it as a nod to the 350z as well. IMO, looking directly at the front end (like in...
  2. Front Bumper Alignment Issue

    A few months back I completed a Nismo front bumper swap on my '24 Performance, however, I've noticed that the top of the bumper doesn't quite align flush with the front fender on the passenger side. Driver's side is basically perfect. At first I assumed a clip or something might have gotten a...
  3. Advice for replacing stock tires on 2024 Performance

    Really can't go wrong with Michelins, I know a friend who got a good deal on tires through Costco and I don't think it's a bad option, but installation experience may vary...

  5. What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    Had the Z1 catch can and drain kit installed yesterday...
  6. Sun Shade Recommendations

    Make that three of us...I prefer the fold to the roll up style, but I do wish it fit a little better and my visors aren't quite strong enough to stay all the way extended with the weight of the sun shield on it.
  7. AMS v Z1 Heat Exchangers

    I also have the CZP heat exchanger, when I'm sitting in stop and go traffic, or if I'm stuck in a drive-thru I've seen it get up to 210-213 on the high end...once I get moving and there's air flowing it comes back down quickly. When you say 185/186, is that even in stop and go traffic or if you...
  8. Will 2027 Z Nismo get an exterior design update and seeking for advice

    I debated the Nismo quite a bit when I made my purchase...but I really wanted the manual transmission and the blue interior. With my car being a daily driver, I decided that the Nismo wasn't really the best choice for me...I also don't love the side skirts or rear bumper on the Nismo. With the...
  9. The Nismo Oil Cooler Mystery

    Just curious if you happened to note any difference in oil temps after cutting out those sections of the undershround?
  10. Long term care for driveway-parked superblack top

    Which window tinting film passed your UV test? I'm looking to remove the cheap crap that the dealership applied to mine and upgrade to something nice before summer.... and just out of curiousity, did you happen to test any PPF films? Who were the winners and losers?
  11. "Z" Overall Reliability/Issues/QC ??

    I'd recommend a little light reading, I think there's some great info on both of these pages along with some advice to help you have the best experience with your Z: https://goracebox.com/blogs/guides/infiniti-q50-q60-and-nissan-z-vr30-maintenance-guide...
  12. Long term care for driveway-parked superblack top

    I'm painfully ocd when it comes to my car so I did a full front end (bumper, front fenders, hood, mirrors, headlights) + the a-pillar, roof, and hatch all the way to the spoiler with STEK PPF. $2900. I'd have done the front end regardless, but I did the roof/hatch because I didn't want to deal...
  13. As a daily, would you go for a manual trans or the Nismo auto?

    I don't think you'd be disappointed with either option, but I would recommend the manual. Part of the reason I bought this car was to get back into a vehicle with a manual transmission. Some will gripe about the shifter or the clutch in the Z, but personally I find it to be very easy to live...
  14. Favorite Front End Poll

    In order of my personal preference: Nismo, Refresh, 23-26, Heritage. Here's why: I think the Nismo looks the most aggressive and ultimately fits the more modern aesthetic best. The '27 Refresh looks really good in my opinion, but I'm not entirely sure it needs the bar in the middle to create...
  15. What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    Thank you! I definitely got a great deal on the bumper conversion kit. I think the fact that I paid a lot less for a replacement bumper for my Lexus a few years ago is probably why this felt a little pricey... While it's not super noticeable in that photo, the body shop didn't quite get the...
  16. What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    So, here's a quick breakdown on costs: Z1 Nismo Bumper Conversion Kit: $1520 (kit was on sale for $500 off when I bought it) Nismo Fender Liners: $108 Shipping: $320 Tax: $145 Paint & Installation: $900 Current Total: $2993 I also plan on getting the bumper wrapped in PPF, which will be...
  17. What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    Today was a big day for my Z, I got up at 5:30 AM and took my car in for some upgrades, including the CZP heat exchanger, oil cooler, and lower oil pan along with a fresh oil change. Last but certainly not least, the Nismo bumper conversion kit that I bought from Z1 several months ago was...

  19. What Z is your all time favorite?

    I was already making a plan and shopping parts before I signed the paperwork and left the dealership, lol. Since then I have gone over that initial estimated budget substantially :LOL:
  20. Concept Z Performance Appreciation Thread

    This month I've picked up a few parts from Concept Z as they're (somewhat) local to me. When doing my research, their CZP-branded products seemed pretty well regarded by the Z community, so with the sales they've been running I decided to pull the trigger on their heat exchanger and oil cooler...
