Thanks

i read an article in import tuner (i think) that said the rs-r 350z was only modified with the rs-r exhaust. my question is does rs-r plan on adding an engine mods (or producing any) or will the car only be a showcase for rs-r products?

saw that article too. the car is gorgeous, but you guys need to throw some muscle into that thing.

i think they had the exhaust and suspension work as well

Does the RSR springs require new shocks over time? I'm concerned about the shocks blowing, and heard Eibach's were very reliable, I'm considering other brands also.

hello everyone. The RS-R 350Z currently had the Dual Sound exhaust (prototype), the IShock Coilovers. We are currently looking into bringing the Dual Sound Exhaust to the market.

The RS-R 350Z did not get its engine beefed up as some of the other cars out there, because drifting is about tuning the suspension for optimum sideways capability. The 350Z has ample power to get it to drift, as anyone who was at D1 can see. Although I am trying to convince them to slap a turbo on there...

Ricky - as with any spring on a stock shock, you will need to replace your shocks sooner than if you were riding on stock shocks.

actually the 350Z has departed the US and is on its way back to Japan. The s14 drift car is still here and will be at SEMA and other drift events across the country.

I'm confused here... as I talked at length with a contact at RSR not that many weeks ago. He relayed to me, when the RSR drift car WAS in the states... it infact had a JDM R1 ECU, exhaust, and a few other goodies. He commented its "WAYYYY" different.

Help me understand the truth here, because I heard one thing direct from the source. Now something different.

What's the truth?????
