Default Mine's 370z A Work In Progress



Source:

No doubt one of the highlights of the Tokyo AutoSalon 2008 was the much anticipated Mine’s built Nissan R35 GT-R. This year Mine’s are busy preparing their brand new Nissan Z34 370z for AutoSalon in January. Rumour has it that they’ve had their Z for quite some time now so we’re quite eager to see what they’ve been up to.

More news as we get it!

I love it. I love white and the 370 looks even better than the 350 in white.

Wow, I'm excited for this car, but it looks stock.

From what I remember Mines was one of the first to mod the 350Z, but didn't turn out to be very popular in the U.S. Maybe it will be different for the 370Z.

This car could look so hot from the rear, with a few more inches of lowering.

Nice! Ti-tip exhaust and some prototype looking coilovers in the back. And it can still go lower!

Always someone has to add their "i still hate the car" or "car is still ugly" it seems in almost every thread. They don't seem to get they're in the minority.

If I was getting 370z, white would be my top choice.

Ok so sitting still it looks fine, but this view scares me. Stock 19's and maybe a drop and the wheel gap is awful. Look at the shape, its bad too. I am really starting to dislike those wide fender sides and their shape around the wheel.

well, mines has a 320hp kit for the vq35de it was the 03-05.
ecu, cams , intake, exhaust, and i think a little modding to the heads.
i think it was sport compact car did a reveiw on it. they put it on a dyno and it put down 320whp or so.

and that is pretty much 100hp over stock.

so could we be seeing 380-400whp 370z's? only time will tell.

The wheel gap might be because of the transfer of weight as he is going around the turn. Notice the red and white warning strips.
