    I love those 350 z's man that's sick, congrats! How much do you have to pay a month for that little lady?

    Cool what size are those speakers behind your driver and passenger seats sorry if i didnt catch it?

    Right now i'm paying 300+ins. Pretty penny that's for sure.

    edit - whoops, thought you meant a different post :x

    They were some audiobahns, but i changed to some $50 rockfords. Sounds a hell of a lot better.

    That things sick, nice car man. I want one aswell

    Thanks man

    My only complaint at ALL with the Zs is that the clutch engages in the last like 10% of pedal travel...makes stop and go traffic a little tricky.

    Enjoy the hell out of that car!

    Every one is different! stock clutch yes, but once this one goes (still plenty of life) i will go with a performance clutch. I drove a 08 350 with an aftermarket performance clutch and it is completely different.

    Well time's gone by, the car is in my name now, thought I'd stop by again and pay you guys a visit. I finally put a small system in it, sounds great! Only added about 40 lbs, so i'm not too upset. I spend most of my time now on 350z forums, but i'll try to be more active here.. Here's some pics ya bishess

    Rockford Prime 250-1 amp, and rockford r2d2-10 :) It sounds great in the little car. And please try to ignore the dust and dirt. There was a lot of blood sweat and tears involved in that wiring. Never did such a good job of hiding wire in my life!

    That's what I said lol if he's wanting q level 5 he needs to put a grand into electrical upgrades

    I just don't understand why people want to have nice systems but not nice electrical. You know it takes power to make power. Do the big 3 in 1/0, Get a better alternator, get a new battery up front, one in back, and THEN buy your amps and subs. If electrical is too much, well then sorry. Like someone else said, you pay to play.

  21. Where to learn how to drive a manual?

    why would you even want to learn a stick?

    Here's a hypothetical situation: You rode around with your friend that is driving his 5 speed car out in the countryside. He pulls over to take a leak, and he get's stung by a bee on his way back to the car. He is allergic to bee stings, and starts to swell up like a balloon. You open the glove box only to see he's out of his epinephrine shots, so you pull out your phone to call an ambulance only to see you have no reception at all. You can drive him to the hospital in time to save his life, but you don't know how to drive stick, so you don't make it in time, and he dies.

    It's a highly unlikely situation, but there are times where knowing how to drive stick could be of importance. I believe that all drive's education courses should have a manual car and it should be a requirement to learn how to operate a manual car to get a valid driver's license.

    I would never buy a manual car purely on the bad resale value.

    I would never buy an automatic car purely based on the cost and complexity of rebuilding an automatic transmission.

    I took my wife to the dealership and we test drove a standard. I drove it to a nice open location and let her learn how to use a clutch then we returned the car to the dealership and said we were just going to continue looking for other vehicles.

    That's a great idea!

    lmao. it's one of those things you need to just know how to do, and once you learn you never forget. You could drive a stick when youre 15, never drive one again for 60 years, then drive it again just fine when youre 75. Just like riding a bike.

    my first manual was my 350z >.> lol. got the "hang" of it (by hang i mean not stalling everytime i came to a stop) in about 1 day. I'm still learning, and still don't have it mastered by a long shot.
