Talking Almost a Track Owner!

hey guys and girls!!

great website you guys got here. got lots of info that i was looking for about the 350Z Track!! great resource!!

well, as the title suggest, im almost a Z Track owner!!! ive paid my deposit, but i cant get the car until i finalise the sale of my current car!

which for those in the dont know, its a Magna pumping over 260kw / 500nm at the bags!!! yep, its powered by a GT40R turbo, and yer, its off it nut, but its time for me to let it go cos its just no good for everyday driving!! (also its great for the weekends ) but yer

pics of my current ride can be found here;
www.booyamotorsport.com/v2/sep_pics

so yer, im spewing that i have to sell my pride and joy.

but getting back to the part most of you are intrested in;
ive paid my deposit on a brand spanking new
Black 6spd Track (im sure you know the specs LOL) and yer!! cant wait to get my hands on it!! just gotta finalise this sale and im off like a frog in a sock with my new zed!!

no plans for it at this stage, cos all i miss is a cruzer something this zed should allow me to do!! lol. my old car was great, but also being my daily driver, it was just a pain in the *** to get around, specially with the govnerment crackig down on "hoons" and the likes.. id be doing 5km under the limit and they will always find a reason to defect/pull me over i just had enough!! oh, and no boot space either :P not to say the Z has a big boot or anything lol

one thing is for sure ill miss with this zed. is the boost rush nothing a APS kit wont fix tho lol - when my baby gets on boost (from 2500rpm upwards) its mental!! a real danger to traffic, as it just spits me left and right! lol

anyway, with some luck on my side, i should be in my z by the end of this month~maybe next month if this clown wastes my time! lol

Chow all!

Ben
FOrmally "Booya" (Booya is my number plate- but not sure if i should carry it over to the Zed or not :S) time will tell!!!

*all of the above*

hahah

but ill see where this Zed takes me.. cos ill try get dad to pass it off as a "company" car hahah hhaha.. unlikely that will happen

but yer, cos as you know this z will set me back a few odd g's so i might have to stay at home with mum for a little longer.. hahaha.. should be all good tho, some of the $$ from the sale of booya will go towards a house, the others will go to wards the car. i should only have to finiance less then 20k, which will be easy as. specially if i get this house under my belt...

not to shabby me thinks!!! and then yes, malc me and you can go drifting!! hahah

no im not making the silly mistake an put 40+K into a car!!! hahahha.. what the hell, ive been researching what i can do to it!! hahah

i think ill do some really basic stuff tho... exhaust, intake, and oh, i hear a lot of bad things bout that bose factory install.. that will have to go!! but NO extra subs and stuff.. i want a BOOT!! hahahah

oh, and no more drop tanks :P ive had enough of 100$ + premium ulp fillups!! hahahah

hey, there is a console difference with the 03' and 04' zeds right? something about the way that tray in the console opens.. the 03 zed folds back on its self right? and the 04 zed just flicks up huh? what do you have david, and can you mount a screen in there?

and the pics of this install is.... .. lol

are you putting them under the strut brace in the back? cos ive seen quite a few with that setup, and damn - looks the goods!!!

BUT I STILL WANT A BOOT!! hahah. iwanna carry at least half a dozen cartons of coronas!! hahahah.. cos between malc and myself, thats at least 3cartons gone in the first hour, then add you hahahha.. or mabe if we both get these subs, we can put 3cartons in each zed!! hahah bonus... hahhahah

oh, and on the sub question.. with the factory sub, can you just replace the one thats there with a different one, cos man, mum would spit if she "saw" anthing like i tried with booya! hahahha.. one of the other reasons im selling up, cos mum doesnt like me modding my car! haha

Welcome to the forum BB and congrats on the Track purchase.
That is the most fearsome Manga I have ever seen. Your Z will be found wanting in the performance stakes compared to the Magna, even with intake / exhaust and other minor bolt ons. I won't be surprised if you go TT sooner than later.

yer, thats the worring part for me.. cos im a boost junkie now..

started with a 250wheel hp N/A engine, then said.. nah i want more.. then bolted a turbo on, and yer, it went from there. even this engine isnt finished!! its in the workshop getting its final touches done to make it a more appealing sale. with this engine close to completion, should be pushing 300kw / 580nm at the treads!! thats scary!

but all in the name of selling it. and yer.. lol.. wanna buy it

Thanks for the offer to buy, but I had a Magna before and it was a ***** of a FWDer - torque steer at factory power specs - would be uncontrolable with FI!!!!
