Whn is your Z arriving mate?? I think TC will be bringing it in end 2007.
Yours is then the newest version with a different tune up.
i think higher BHP as well as new hood..am i correct?

Cheaper if you know exactly what you want and you indent.
I know a shop here doing this.
Owner is Japanese. You cna order anything as long as you know the product itself...

Mid-May is what the dealer told me but I am not holding my breath. :-) Read in other forums that TC is taking orders now for the 07 and delivery in July.
The specs say a 10-15BHP difference btw the 06 and 07 and the engine 80% new which also explains the bulge as it's taller. The torque range is also suppose to be flatter.

hi,
i'm a '04 Z owner in Singapore.
There's a mailing list of the Z owners in Singapore.
it started from the nissan enthusiast club forum.
so to know more Z owners, it'll be easier to join that list.
i did attend one combined meetup with skylines and silvias before.
there were like 9 Z there that day.
anyway hope to meet up with you guys soon.
