STORY
This is my Nissan 300ZX. When I purchased the car, I didn't have the intential to modify it. It's come a long way since I first bought her back in 2007 when I came back from overseas. All she came with was a Nismo shift knob. I started slow with modifications, just doing pads and rotors, on to the exhaust and then intake. After I did some self-educating, it was all about changing the suspension parts and getting a more-aggressive stance. Originally, I put in springs but those were put to the curb for some actual coilovers. After some looking, at both my bank account and websites, I was able to find a set of wheels that I felt it fit good with the car that I could afford. Once I started seeing these stanced and slammed cars, I was hooked! The car was lowered to an even-stance and the fronts were maxed. Adjustable parts were put on to keep her going straight and proper. The latest touch was the wrap. Thanks to Phenomenal Vinyl, my 300ZX was wrapped in just one weekend in preparation for ZDayz, a massive Z Car event that if you haven't been to you should try to make it at lease once!

FAVORITE MODIFICATION
My favorite modification as of current would have to be the Grip Royal Royal Woodie steering wheel. It was a gift to me from my girl for Chirstmas and I just love how the grain looks in the sun. I think it gives the car that classic look it deserves!
