if it was me id get the IS-F for a DD and TT this Z.

im not 100% sure how much you make, but im guessing its not too much more than me, as im in a similar field of work.

i dont think you can afford a GT-R. they are even used 70ish grand and they are maintenance hogs.

/co-sign on this. I'd even take the stock bumper, as long as it flowed well with the rest of the kit.

Depending on how far out the IS-F is, maybe consider something to up the "get up and go" a little bit? Seems a shame that you haven't added any extra "oomph" yet, outside of shaving a bit of weight with the CF.

I still live with my parents and pretty much have no social life and rarely eat out or do anything so I get to save a lot of money

I'll need to save up for about a year-year and a half to get a GTR.
I'm in the DFW area.

Nothing to be proud of... If you want to buy expensive car and such, you should try learning basic things about mecanics on a cheap car like a honda... instead of buying expensive shits and not knowing what ur doing

lol just read this.

OP do yourself a favor and buy a cheap apartment/condo with a garage. Live RENT free/mortgage and stock pile your cash. Then go blow a fuck ton of cash on a depreciating investment such as a gt-r

It would be a cool car to own, but saving for an entire year or more just to get it is stupid, especially when you live with your parents. No car will make you look "cool" when you live with your parents.
Spend a few grand making the Z faster then just save your money for other things.

if it's real.

:drool:

:edit

Nice Z. Idgaf what they sayin' I like that spoiler and those exhausts. (Rims could be bronze though.)

:edit

OP I think you did something awesome by buying a kit / aftermarket parts on a brand new car. That way you can put all the brand new stock oem parts on when you resell your Z. (plus wear and tear will be on the aftermarket products.)
