I traded my 350Z for an STi which I got from Mark Miller Subaru in SLC, Utah at Sticker. They were happy to put in a fantastic stereo(pioneer MP3 player, amp, speakers and sub), window tint and a few other items at dealer cost. I am really happy with them. They never mentioned break in period so i probably was a little to hard on it the first 150 miles but now I know...It is a good car. I really dont like the looks I get with that big wing on the back but I will live with it for a few months till I get something else. I am going to do an intake, ECU and full exhaust. In the end I am ordering up a new Z I like it better although I will make sure never to race an STI as it will absolutely embarrass a 350Z in a race. You guys all seem really cool any advice on mode is appreciated...

Great job on getting an STI. I'm just puzzled why you would trade in your 350Z for an STI and decide to get a 350Z again?! You obviously didn't buy the STI for its looks since the 350Z is more of a babe magnet. Yes the STI wing is a bit large but think of the rally heritage it carries. Believe it or not, this wing DOES serve a useful purpose at high speeds. Frankly, I'm not sure why you are already start thinking of performance upgrades when you haven't even gotten to KNOW the car you are driving. To start messing around with a brilliantly engineered performance vehicle like the STI is not something to take lightly. I've previously upgraded my '02 WRX with many mods and think that is is absolutely amazing that my '04 STI can out perform and out handle the WRX WITHOUT the added noise.
