Default Z1 Performance INC

I just wanted to let all of you(most of you probably already know) know about Z1 Performance and all they have to offer. I placed an order for simple nismo pillars and was promply refunded my money due to them being out of stock. I recieved an email from adam the next day saying they were in and if I wanted them I could just call him up, so I did so. I liked so much how he handled this transaction I called him up when I wanted to get some test pipes. Adam answered again and remembered me, said he could have them out to me that week . Ever since then I have ordered headers, utech, pulleys, and some other things, everytime with exceptional assistance. I even called him when I had a problem with installing the 5/16 spacer, and he gladly took the time to assist me in installation describing over the phone. I WASH EVERY DEALER WAS THIS AMAZING. Or either Z1 could just carry everything!

Sorry for the rant, I am just so pleased with this business I want other to know. This is my first post but I have been stalking this site for the past 5 months, getting all kinds of help from you fellas. Thanks!

Yep, Z1, and Adam specifically, is one of the best vendors I've ever dealt with, no question.

Yep, have yet to order anything for my Z, but ordered quite a bit from them for my evo (last car) and was always pleased with the service.

Z1 is a great vendor, and one I will continue to use as long as they can get parts for the car I drive!!!

Is this the kit you ordered? From the looks of it, it only works with an aftermarket steering wheel?

thanks for the support guys, we greatly appreciate it

The paddle shifter kit, for those interested, is for use with an aftermarket steering wheel, and it's only for automatics

Thanks once again guys!!!

Two thumbs up for Z1 Performance. Every transaction that I've ever had with them has been great.

I see there's a shifter with paddles for both sides (I'm assuming for up and downshifts)...is this one available?

hey adam, quick question. im looking for a couple things. one is im wondering if you have the nismo b-pillars in stock, and do you carry any rear strut brace covers (in carbon fiber)? if you have the b-pillars are they form fitted or are they flexible and you just stick it on?

also i know ive wanted that rear wing since i was staring at it 10 minutes straight on the last mountain run haha, so im wondering if you carry any, can you get them, and how much? (you told me before it was tough to get it to fit right im okay with that)

Hey Nick - no sorry, B pillars are sold out now, we'll post when we get more - they just stick on, but unlike other ones out there, they are an absolutely perfect fit (I had Varis before, they didn't fit so well)

We can get the rear brace covers from Central 20 - I'll pm you.

As for the rear wing, it's by Balsarini Japan. In all honesty, it is such a piece of garbage, we would never sell it - it took me 7 hours to sand it down to the point where it could be painted (Im a bit of a perfectionist but still, it should not take more than maybe 1 hr tops to prep for paint). Anyway, I would not recommend it. Much better off getting a similar style such as Blitz (very nice piece) or Central 20, or Data Systems. If I had to do it again of course, I'd go with the INGS LX one...that's my overall favorite
