So, uhh, Mike, how will anyone know what kinda car you drive without the logo and the Nissan signature square dots?
You could tell me it's a Syon or a Hunnyday and now I wouldn't know.
Came out nice.... the "chrome" stickon tape came off mine a long time ago. Maybe I'll just follow your lead. 5whp gain for sure.
Same the sticker part was coming off mine also, I used the parts car one for my experiment same condition...
Maybe ill carbon fiber wrap it and tell everyone its a Honda, im slowly getting rid of all the emblems on the car, ive been eyeballing those fender emblems for a while now...
That tunnel hatch is nice, kinda wish I got one of those..
I installed my Nismo GT Titanium Shift **** last night, there are some pics in my thread. Today, I topped it up with Washer Fluid because the Light was driving me nuts.
I'm just waiting on my Z-speed Aluminum Undershroud to show up so I can do my oil change & plugs.
New to the forum and will start a build thread once I get some pictures of it on the ground, but this is what I've been doing to my recently purchased Z.
Take a lot of pics/angles when installed. Very difficult to find decent pictures of this tunnel trunk on the z
Yeah, I know, that's why it took me so long to order it. Just from appearance it looks very well made.
Right now I am waiting for the two gaskets I ordered yesterday, and I think I had better order two weak *** struts for it. My current struts I had sent up to Frank in Canada to rebuild and make stronger as I hated the hatch hitting me in the head during very cold winters. Of course the rain from Harvey came rolling in this morning and it hasn't stopped yet, solid rain since about 4 in the morning, over 12 hours now. Hoping next week I can slap it on.
So far I have a brand new carbon hood ready, a pair of carbon A pillars I have had for years and never installed, this tunnel hatch and ordered a roof overlay in carbon yesterday. So end state should be carbon from front bumper to rear bumper.
Who did you order it from? I'll be curious how your fitment goes... My carbon creation hatch fits pretty good but rubs my rear window gaskets.
I ordered from importsharkstore on ebay. They had the best price plus I got a ebay bux rebate making it even cheaper. They double boxed it, for once I got something in perfect shape without any damage. lol. It has a VIS metal tag with serial number if that means anything.
installed a set of Eibach pro kit springs. The ride is still good, less harsh than stock over some terrain. Had to level out my driveway with 2 bags of concrete. I couldnt make it up anymore.
Blacked out the Coolant Reservoir, guessing this is good for another 30-40 whp.
A replacement OEM unit, used 600/2000 grit to take down the plastic and prep the surface. Masked off the MIN & MAX on the backside w/ a 1.5" window so I can still view, a key objective. Used a satin black with primer base to match the bay. Will let it 'cure' for a day, layer on some McGuire's, buff and be done. Hated that white chunk of OEM plastic. I'll see how this holds up but think I'm good.
Up next...install my black ZSpeed under-tray that came in this week.
OEM unit after sand/prep, you can see the MIN/MAX window I masked off.
View works great

Did you use the front wheels as a safety incase the stands slip ?
