04 350z 04 cobra 04 sti?
Ok im looking to get one of these cars...what are everyone opinions?Im kind of leaning towrds the cobra or sti but im not to sure..If i do get a cobra or sti and start to mod them what should I do 1st..I found a bunch of badass parts but never owned a s/c or turbo car so im kind of lost.
If I do get the sti i wanna do..hks carbon exhaust..TurboXS FMIC..cobb tuning access port and some small basic things..Is that a good start and does anyone have those parts on there car?
-thanks

it depends on what you want.. you cant beat the Cobra for pure accelleration and bang for buck with mods .. but then the STi is a blast to drive aswell... i'd rather a used STi than a used Cobra though.
the 350z is for people who think a cool looking slow car is neat.

sti all the way. down pipe, cat-back, fmic, ecu mode, and a bov or dv will work wonders. a nice 3" turbo-back exhaust with an ecu mod, like the turboxs utec, will net about 30-35 whp gain alone. sports compact mag did a tech artical on the sti where they used a 3" turbo back and the utec software and made some good smooth power gains. i think it was either the october, november or december issue. the 350z is pretty nice looking and its no joke. there just to damn expensive right now to make them fast. i mean, $6500 for just a turbo kit? maybe in another year or two, the competition for aftermarket support will drop the prices of these s/c and turbo kits.

it either have to be the cobra or the STi. it depends on your taste. do you like AWD or RWD? STi might be a little cheaper on the insurance. my issue is i would buy the car brand new. a low mileage 04 STi is almost as much as a new one. also one thing to think of noone buys and STi or a cobra to just drive normal. odds are buying a used one, the previous owner prob beat the hell out of it.
my choice: brand new STi
