@nissanjuke it's really worth the money. I love my car so much more after this modification. I did some work on detailing my car this weekend. This is how it turned out: 2 step paint correction: - Dodo juice spin doctor rotary polisher / orange pad / Monello Veloce compound - 900 watt excentric polisher /white pad / Monello Finale finishing polish Reflections... And the result: I'm really happy with this! Next mods: - Install rearview camera - Install red GTR start button - Have the doorhandles repainted again - Fit new black Z emblems front and back

No mate, i paid a specialised company a little over 700 pounds for it. They had to weld up new steering rack brackets and a new "steering rod" (i dont know the correct name in english, the long steel tube that connects the steering wheel down the cockpit)

I got the spoiler from a company called "The Spoiler Company" on eBay. Fitment requires 2 extra holes in the spoiler (which you can easily access through the trunk lid with a self-fastening screw) and some kit. Im very satisfied.

Update 2: the NISMO spoiler has arrived. I will install it Tomorrow.

Update 1: got the wheels coated in Nismo grey:

Alright so I want to use this thread to document the changes to my 370z! Background: I was looking for a fun weekend toy. Daily driver is a '17 BMW 330 so I am already quite spoiled regarding performance/quality and was looking for something that would offer me a complete different driving experience. After shortlisting four cars being 1) GT-R R33, 2) Cayman S, 3) Subaru BRZ and 4) 370z, the 370 won my heart with it's looks, V6 engine and revmatching function combined with quite a modern look and feel. Sourcing the right car: The 370z is quite a rare car in the Netherlands, about 10 are sold new from the dealers every year due to their high price (€100.000 for a non-nismo manual), and used ones go for €30.000/€35.000. So I decided to look at the German market: more choice and lower prices. After finding a fully documented 2010 pack edition with persimmon leather and just 74.000km - i bought the car. Goals: So for 2018 I want to make the car look exactly the way I want. After that, I will look for more power, probably through a Stillen SC kit. The goal will be 450bhp at the engine, so say around 400 at the wheels. Modifcations: Although the overall condition is good, my first changes will be: Exterior: Respray rear bumper: the PDC sensors have been removed but the job wasn't done professionally: DONE Respray rear trunk lid: i removed the rear screen wiper so will have this cleaned and resprayed: DONE Respray door handles: I like a blacked out look and will respray the door handles to magnetic black: DONE Powdercoat the silver 19 inch Rays to NISMO anthracite: DONE Replace the stock spoiler with a NISMO spoiler: DONE Tint the windows to aid the blacked-out look: DONE Interior: Steering rack modification in order to move the steering wheel +- 2,5" my way for a better driving position: DONE Fit Paul's rear view camera kit: ORDERED Performance: Fitted new rear tires. I went with Hankook Evo S2 285/35/19: DONE

I would never buy a press car mate!

Ah snap, i just ordered my NISMO spoiler from the USA one week ago. 185 is a really good price. I might just hop on so I can change the look if I want. Can you ask whether the spoiler utilizes just and only the original OEM spoiler mounts?

Hi, What was the mileage on the car? I recognize the jerky shifting with the manual, I have the same with mine. Make sure though that's it's not the differential, you can check this by providing quick throttle input whilst driving and make sure you don't hear clunking/banging sounds. It might be that the clutch needs replacement, mine has 77k km on it and will also need a new clutch sometime.

Thanks Nissanjuke! Is that a Nürburgring edition you have? Last night i decided to have the windows tinted also. The rear window and triangles are 15%, the side windows are 50%. Last major mod for now will be the wheels (arrive this week) and the headlights. So far I haven't been able to find a good store that can dissamble and repaint them black.

I picked up the Z today from the painting shop. The rear bumper has been repainted and so has the trunk lid. both are also cleaned from holes (parking sensor, rear screen wiper). The door handles have been painted Magnetic black too.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! @rickdon i am in the Rotterdam area.

Hey guys, Just want to quickly introduce myself. I just purchased a Nissan 370Z from 2010 in magnetic black. Got the car from Germany, and they are very rare here in the Netherlands. It's got the pesimmon coloured interior and a Nvidia exhaust. Furthermore it's the pack version with BOSE, navigation, PDC and 19" Rays. I also considered a R33 GTR and a Porsche Cayman S, but the 3.7 V6 with revmatching of the 370z made me fall in love with this car. Currently I am changing the following things: - NISMO spoiler is on it's way - Wheels are being powdercoated in the 40th anniv. gunmetal grey colour - Rear bumper in being resprayed, it's been done before but not up to my standards - Door handles will be resprayed in magnetic black - Windows will be tinted - The steering column has been moved +- 2,5" my way and closer to the driver. This was an expensive mod but as im 1.93m (6"3) it really makes my driving position 300x better. - Just placed new hankook tires on all wheels This summer will be about enjoying the car as-is. It's already lowered with an adjustable K-Tec suspension kit. I am considering supercharging the car. I also drive a 2017 BMW 330 as a daily, and race a Honda CBR600RR on the track + ride a Ducati Hypermotard 821 on the streets. Cheers! Marty
