Default 370z pics on ZCG lift! Under-car and other shots

Lots of pics below. They let Z-car garage put it on the lift and pull two tires. They didn't want me looking at offsets

Let me know if you want to see a larger version of any of these, I can also lighten the shadows of the undercarriage shots if you are interested

Some thoughts:
  • I tried to take pics of angles not taken yet
  • NO NEED TO ROLL REAR FENDERS! They are paper-thin, no edge to roll! Nissan is wanting someone to install some 335's back there - there's just tons of room!!!
  • The Blose can be called Bose again. Impressive bass for an OEM system - about dam time!
  • The exhaust sounds very muffled and very quiet. The tone resembles more of an e46M3 than a Nissan VQ - meaning F1-ish
  • The chassis has extensive bracing on the undercarriage
  • The front hubs have no center - there's a hole there.
  • The flat parts around the feders are HUGE
  • Headlights have bulges - not sure if I am feeling the bulges
  • The a/c controls on the base model are a step down from the 350. They don't stick out very far and don't have the rubber grippies like the 06+. The new knobs on the base are a let-down.
  • The touring has digital climate controls that display on the nav screen - too bad I did not get a pic of that readout - I got one of the radio preset readout.
  • The plastic on the lower part of the door interiors is GM-Saturn-grade, but once you close the door, you don't see it.
  • The Cubby door does not open up very far - if you are tall, you might not be able to see half of your screen.
  • The pull-handle on the inside of the doors feel really cheap. This is a place where Nissan should havespent a few extra $$. I mean you touch this part every time you pull the door shut when getting into the car.
  • The RPM gauge tells you what gear you are in - cool.
  • The 2-into-1-into-2 exhaust is strange - but plenty of room for aftermarket exhaust!

Excellent thread!

IF I jump in one, the base model just won't cut it due to the awful interior. Coming from an 06 G35, I would want atleast something up to par. And the upgraded model seems to have a nice interior.

Excellent job with the pics! Now someone needs to strap the 370Z to the dyno.

Yeah, it felt sturdy. I think the metal is two layers thick there. It's bent back on itself. I wonder how tough it'll be to repair a ding in this area?

I should have stuck around later it looks like, I didn't know they were going put it on a lift. But I wanted to beat traffic back to Walnut Creek (didn't work).

I got a couple of questions that's hard to gauge from the pics -

1) What does the exhaust sound like? Similar to G37 coupe or the 350Z?

2) How wide are the rear tires for the 19" Rays? I think Nissan listed it as 10 inches wide but it looked skinnier from the pics.

Awesome shots of the under body, BTW
