Picked up my car this past Friday! Went to the Maple Lawn meet around 7:30am on Saturday and hung out for awhile. Looking forward to meeting everyone in a few weeks.


Being off loaded!

Cranberry, what gave it away! I don't plan on doing much to it, just added a mid-pipe to give it a little sound! I will be adding a rear and front camera next week and that will be it until the Summer. No performance mods for a while.

Because it seems like everybody on this forum gets the same itch to do some kind of mods. I went to a track rental on Veteran's day at MIR and I talked with a few other GT-R owners and none of them were completely stock. This past March I flew out to Chicago to buy my car and I drove 9 hours home. As soon as I got home I jacked the car up and installed a non resonated AAM mid pipe and drove it around for about a week. The following week I jacked the car back up and installed AAM catless downpipes and stripped out one of the air/fuel ratio sensors. I had to call around but I managed to find one for $300 instead of $400 like all the other dealers wanted.  So after I received the new sensors I installed them on the cats and started driving the car again and even though I really loved the sound with the stock exhaust I wanted more. Now 8 months later I'm finally happy as my car will be complete in the next week or so and I don't care if everyone starts getting 1500awhp I'll be fine with my car. That's the only reason I say enjoy it because it seems never ending!

I know what you mean, car came in late Friday, I put a midpipe on it the very next day. I did the same with My 370Z, every week it seemed like something was coming in the mail. I am quite happy with the performance of the car and care too much about my warranty to push the envelope. This forum is a wealth of information, but for me it leads to the "me too syndrome." I see it, I want it...I had my midpipe waiting in the garage, carbon mirror covers  and car cover ordered and clear bra appointment set all within in one week of receiving my car.

Thanks Chief!  BTW, which mid-pipe are you running? Res or non-res?
