Default APS TT, Exhaust, Defi, Rotora, K40, etc. finally installed (pics attached)

Let me just start by thanking XXTuning in E. Hartford, CT who did a great job with the install of everything on my car. They are pros and did a helluva job with my car. The car looks and runs great.

Before you ask, I don't have dyno numbers as I picked up my car late Friday afternoon as soon as it was finished as I really wanted it for the Cape Cod meet so we didn't get a chance to put it on their dyno. I will be doing this within the next few weeks and will post the numbers. Boy was it fun driving this car 3-1/2 hours each way to the Cape.

So what did I get done, here's the list:

APS TT
Ceramic Coated Exhaust Manifolds
APS Dual Exhaust
Rotora 14" 6-Piston Rear, and 4-Piston Front Rotors w/Drilled & Slotted Rotors
Ultimate Racing High Flow Cats
UR Crank and Power Steering Pulley
Defi Gauging System
Koyo Radiator
Samco Hoses
Max Ground Grounding Wires
K40 Laser Jammer/Radar Detector
Front Bumper and Grill Repainted
Velside V1 Front Lip Spoiler
Clear Film Lip, Bumper, Headlights, Side Mirrors, Hood and Quarter Panels
20% Window Tint

The only thing I didn't receive yet are the Pi-Thon clamps but those should be in soon.

Here are some pictures taken at Saturday's meet:

Here are some pics. of my Defi display unit which reads Oil Temp, Water Temp, and EGT.

Also attached is a picture of my front bumper painted and filmed. Don't know if you can see the K40 laser jammer hidden in the center of the grill. It sure came in handy on Saturday, it saved me a few times.

My bad. You're right they're actually 6-piston front and 4 in the rear.

Thanks to everyone thusfar for the compliments. This car is totally transformed now. What's great is that it feels like stock when you're cruising but just step on the gas hard and WOW what a rush.

I know the grill is a matter of opinion and I respect yours. I think it depends on the color of the car. I believe chrome silver is one of the few colors that can get away with a painted grill but this is just my opinion. I was tired of going to car meets with about 30 silver 350Z's all looking the same in the front so I wanted to do something different. I'm actually very happy with how it looks as it makes the front look clean which is what I wanted. At the Cape meet with over 60 cars I must've had at least 30 people compliment the grill.

Everything cost me about half of what I paid total for the car when I purchased it new.

I should know this answer but I don't. I'll ask tomorrow and let you know, however, if you have something in mind you want done just let me know and I can twist Danny's arm to give you a good price. I still need them to install my alarm for me and I'm waiting for Pi-Thon clamps for them to install as well.

I have a co-worker that just purchased a white Roadster and will be going there with me next week to get a clear film installed on his car. They do a great job with clear film.

The best way to decide is to attend meets and see firsthand different bodykits, mods., etc. This will make your decision much easier. As I mentioned earlier, we'll be having a meet on July 24th so hopefully you can attend that.
