MODS: I wasn't sure quite where to post this so I apologise if this is in the wrong section.

Here are a few of the parts I have laying around waiting for my car to get back from VRT...

Seibon TS Carbon Fiber Hood...



Corbeau Seats FX1 Pro (16lbs!)



Odyseey PC 680 Lightweight Battery (15.8lbs!)



Nismo LMGT4 Wheels Powdercoated Flat Black

 

Sweet dilly dingdongs! Is it Christmas in Vegas?? Looks like some good stuff there. Love the rims. Definitely post up the pics with it all installed.

 

Hahaha once the car is back and everything is on, you will be begging me not to post anymore pictures because you will see them EVERYWHERE lol. Gotta keep the sponsors happy...

BTW, hows your project going with the headlight covers?

 

Love the CF hood. how much you paid for it?

 

I finally got my Pathfinder fixed so its out of the garage now. That means I can start working on the covers. I think I finally found the fastening solution I was looking for. I just have to make a bracket and test the fasteners out at speed. I've got a couple of other carbon projects coming up quickly. I've got a hood like the one you have, only its damaged. I'm having my bodyshop guy fix it and I'm going to make a mold from it. Also, I've got some Top Secret Splash guards on the way too. So, I'll be knee deep in carbon soon. I'd say about 3-4 weeks and I'll have something for you.

 

Awesome! I can't wait. Man if you were to make a dry carbon vented hood I would fly down to Illinois just so I can buy you a drink lol.

 

I believe it was around $680 shipped from one of the vendors on the forum...

 

The tires on the right are the ones I will be running on the rear of my Z. Both tires are 315/30/18, the one on the left is a Michellin Pilot Sport Cup and the one on the right is a Nitto NT01. I don't know why the Nitto is bigger, but I also don't care since it still doesn't rub!

Because I know this question is coming...wheels are an 18" x 9.5" Nismo LMGT4 +30 offset. And yes that is a bit wide for a 9.5" rim, but it still works. This same setup has been run on the track by VRT for quite some time, but with the Sport Cup tire instead of the NT01.

The new brakes!

AP Racing 3700 Big Brake Kit - 14.25" 6-Piston Front, 13" 4-Piston Rear

 

damn im jealous!!! I want big brake kit!!

What performance mods do u have?

 

Hahaha, well it would probably be easier for you to check my website rather than me posting the list...www.SinCity350Z.com

Here are the big things...
JWT Twin Turbo
Built Motor
JWT Clutch/Flywheel
Nismo LSD
JWT Cams
etc...

 

i just noticed u have the boxes im looking into for my system. How much did those fiberglass boxes cost you and what size subs u running? 10s or 12s?

 

They were $600 for fabrication and $300 for paint. They housed two 10" Fosgate P2 subs and it hit pretty damn hard. You can probably save a few on the paint, I went to the most expensive, but best, place in Vegas.

 

The one on the left looks exactly like a Pirelli PZero Corsa??

 

wow. nice parts list.

you're gonna be flyin' at the track

nice choice on rims/colors too hehe. :P

 

Interesting, VRT has been putting out a lot of modded 350Z's lately.

 

Thanks Cheston!

 

Yep, they have more coming too.

 

were they custom made 1 time only. Or can you buy them like the wickedcas boxes? If they are custom then cool, but if you can buy them throw a link at me! Thanks

 

At this point, if you want a JWT TT and live on the west coast, VRT is the go to place.

My hope is their customers are pleased with VRT's work. One bad experience with an unhappy customer can scare away 10 more potiential customers, especially in the age of internet and forums.

VRT, you have a bit of the spotlight for the time being, use it wisely.
