Goodbye TSX!! Hello, Z!
Yup. As the title states, the TSX is making its way to a new and happy owner. Just picked up a 2012 Gunmetal 370Z Touring. Very happy with this car so far. All 12 miles I've driven this evening.
Though I won't have much of anything to contribute I will certainly pop in to say hi every now and then. Its been fun. Thanks for all the comments and support over the last 3 years. I hope to make an event sometime this summer. See ya

Aww guys! No tears! hahaha!
Are you kidding me? I can't stay away from here! Just saying I won't be a part of the Acura family. For now. I still loved my cu2 as I was cleaning my shit out of it. I just couldn't justify dropping another $18k into it to get it where I wanted it. Needed something with the power already there. This was the answer. And hell, I'm 32 now. Gotta do this before I get too old to climb out of it. Then I'll be coming right back to Acura. Its just a phase. At least I can admit that.

There's nothing bad about choosing Z. I'm also like that car because of having good city fuel efficiency and it's cargo space plus this car is a hybrid. So good luck to you and to your new Z.

Thanks again and again for the nice comments. Mr. NC... I can't tell you how happy I was to be rid of that back seat. Now I have an excuse to tell people to fuck off at work when they say they wantto put a box or some kind of equipment in my car. And I have nowhere to store crap I never need. Lol!
Looking at the Stillen Gen 3 intakes and Koni yellow/H&R spring combo, Quaife LSD, Willwood brakes and stainless lines with Castrol SRF fluid (good stuff), front/rear lower sway bars, EXPEL clear wrap entire hood, fascia and fenders, tint (obviously), and a hide away front plate mount. From what I'm finding out, suspension does more for this platform than simple bolt ons. And I'm not looking to toy with the engine too much this early on. Did that with the TSX and barely touched the suspension. Need to focus this time.
And pics will come when the sun decides to show itself and I can get a good detail on it.

Congrats on the Z, hope you enjoy it. I'm a huge Nissan fan and hope I might be able to get a Z33 or Z34 one day as a project car. AFAIK, the VQ37VHR is a solid performer even stock - linear power curve pulling all the way to 7600 rpm rev limit. It's a different experience when you have car that can go 300+ RWHP with simple bolt ons.
What's also nice is the selection of rims and offsets you'll have available vs the TSX...

I've literally stopped living for the past week because there is so much that you can do to this car. Its insane. I've been out of the gym for 3 days in a row. NOT COOL! lol! But yeah, been all over Z1 motorsports, Stillen and the 370z.com forums. The Quaife LSD is definitely coming first. But, I want to get some miles on it and a good break in because once that LSD comes its all over. And much to the dismay of many, the wheels stay. I like them enough. And pics as promised!
Ok... the links won't post the image here but they are accessible so just click 'em and it'll drag you to my facebook page. Hey, I tried.

Oh I thought you were coming back to the tsx because after a week of the 370Z you couldn't live without your TSX .

Anyway, I love that color and those rims. How did you end up with those? Those aren't the stock rims, they're the 25th Anniversary rims. I like them either way, almost bought a set for my wagon.
And is that a Maxima in the driveway too?

awesome color man.
step 1: coilover
step 2: volks te37SL, ce28n, progressive ME, advan RS/RZ, etc
step 3: amuse kit/nismo kit with a decklid instead of a wing
step 4: nice exhaust
step 5: gift to me.
