Howdy folks! Took me a while to find a 350 Z forum. Sheesh! Anyhow, I am the current owner of a 2000 BMW 323i. She is my baby, my first real car. But good GOD she is a pig. At 3200 pounds with only 170 stock HP, she drags ass for sure. Handles like a beaut, but I'd really expect more bang for that buck. On that subject,
This BMW has been incredibly expensive to modify. My air intake alone cost $450. From what I've sen on other cars that is rediculous. There is an incredible drought on aftermarket products for the car, and since I am a 20 year old college kid, every audio place I go to for an estimate for a sound system sees that BMW roundel and the dollar signs pop into their eyes. Luckily I'm not an idiot. Anyhow
I was wondering if you guys could hook me up with some good forums for 350's or nissan in general (Skyline! Droooooool). Also, what are the major tuning companies that work with nissan? And do any of them have any products, or planned products for the 350? I know that the car is a new born, but I intend on trading in my BMW at around christmas for one, and want to get as big a head start as I can. I waited almost 2 years before I had any real work done to my BMW. I don't want to waste all the time now. As soon as I get my Z I want to start slinging parts on there. As it stands due to limited stuff at the moment, I'll probably start with rims and audio, but I am a performance junky at heart, and that is where my money will be going. Thanks guys, and this car kicks some serious ass!

Jergens,
You could check out www.my350z.com, www.freshalloy.com, and www.350zforum.com , to name a few for some good discussions on the Z.
NISMO is planning to come to the US sometime in March/April. They're the tuner for Nissan.
Check them out :) .
