Tire size questions
I run 225/50/15 on the back and 205/50/15 on the front no rubbing and it looks really good little fatter in the back but not enough that it effects the handling in a negative way actually it handles better then with the 195/60/14 i had before they are Hankook ventus really grippy and my suspension is stock

Z etiquette
I guess your are either a car enthuisast or your not . my friend drives a 2005 porsche 911 and couldnt understand why i drive a 1974 z or why our other friend drives a 1983 944 or why his own brother now drives a 1982 911. he is now starting to realize there is more to a car then what it cost or how new it is he is slowly converting to the point that he is actually looking at a 1982 911 for himself. It takes time for some to come around but once they do they never look back. Your car should be just that "your car" not eye candy for the opinions of those who dont share the love for a beautiful car

Z etiquette
that just happened to me the other day. i was in my Z and saw a guy getting into his 350z roadster so i wave and give a little nod , he just looked away like I wasn't there. I think some of the people (not all ) buy a 350z because it really is a nice sports car but really dont have any idea as to what they are driving. They don't appreciate the history of the cars. Its a shame but not everyone driving there cars care what it looked like 30 years ago like we do.

alternator upgrades
Thanks steve I will try that but could that also be the alt? I know my alt is bad (had it tested) I wonder if that has anything to do with it
-
alternator upgrades
That looks awsome but for $199 i think I'll go with a 50 amp for $30

alternator upgrades
I ask because my turn signals are slow and at a stop they sometimes don't work at all they work fine when i am moving

alternator upgrades
What about a 50 or 60amp alt is that better than stock?
-
alternator upgrades
I was wondering if the alt from the zx is the best upgrade for a 260z. I can buy a 60 amp from advance auto that is made for the 260z but was wondering if that is the biggest or best for my mostly stock 260z Thanks Chris
