Figured I'd revisit this board after kinda forgetting about it for a very long time. Long story short- after saving up over the years and driving my first camry honestly into the ground, I went ahead and got a Z.

My criteria was something relatively new thus reliable for a few years to come, RWD, manual, not an arm and a leg to maintain (like say posches and beamers), and with some luggage space. Of all my generic choices, Z33 was the only one that really met everything perfectly.

Plans for this thing? Perhaps minor things like wider rims and better tires, maybe some mods that don't fall strictly under NA or Boost categories. I figure I'd get a cheap, project car in a couple years to mod beyond belief and have this one as my workhorse.

Yes, Ed Hardy. Why? The closest thing to the tsunami/theme and easiest to find without going online. Pass side is just soft and fuzzy cover.

Only other details I've added were éX-Driver decals out of sheer love for that short series.

Lolwut? There were no themes and that's why I love that show/idea. Just the car in its stock form + the little eX-D marker.

Stopped by a Sonic on my way back to MD from Richmond and a bike guy walked up to my car and complimented me on my éX-D vinyls. Absolutely made my day.

Hopefully they dig you as well otherwise you'd have to burn them. The seatcovers I mean, don't burn yourself.

New little chapter to this story- some small, flat metal bit found its way into my right rear tire and thus got a new set this morning. Went with Michelin Pilot Sport Plus due to avail/convenience and they're surely better than Fierce Instinct ZR's that were on when I got the Z.
