Talking Atruhondagrl's 350Z- a work in progress

Update: New pics below. 04/01

Finally got Zöe back from Nissan. She now has a JWT clutch and flywheel combo. What a difference. I can't wait to put the new final drive gear in this summer! :woohoo:

I forgot my tripod tonight so it took some patience to get these shots and they're still a little out of focus. I know! I love the 1.8 50mm lens. It works well when suffering in low light without a tripod!


















Old pics from when Zöe was first brought home.









03/18 My car is dirty.

The ugly dent.


Rock on!


The Pop charger


Insides


I need to clean this thing



Current mods are:
JWT Pop Charger
DC Sports Headers
Borla True dual exhaust
JWT lightweight flywheel and clutch
clear front reflectors
Black Nismo shift knob
2005+ wheels
Pioneer Avic F700bt
Z1 Motorsport 5/16" Intake Plenum Spacer (Waiting to be installed)
Hotchkis Stage 1 TVS (Waiting to be installed)
Berks HFC (Waiting to be in stalled)
OEM rear lip spoiler (Waiting to be installed)
Bat's roof overleay (Waiting to be installed)

Nice. Good choice in color. i almost traded in my FG2 for a 2005 350z in the same color but I couldnt bring myself to it since I am in school right now and didnt want to struggle. So I am keeping mine and just modding it slowly.haha.

Unfortunately the car got hit by a massive rock today courtesy of Virginia's amazing crumbling cement highways. I deleted the dent in the first pic because I need the practice. Here's the lovely piece of work itself.

That is indeed a massive dent. Must be a new feature on some highways - self-destructing roadway. Sorry that it happened. Good luck with the Z.

It wasn't a truck as someone above asked. Lol. It was a really annoyed silver Kia Rio. The toy car flung it up on me. I heard it hit then I saw it fly and my only thought was, "sh*t, gotta call Geico now." Last night I got a bulls eye in my windscreen from another rock. All the rocks in Texas and it's Virginia that is the most destructive. Go figure.
