Hey Z fam! It's been a while since I've posted or commented anywhere. Thought I'd thread up and let y'all in on my nearly completed first goal for my Z. So I'll just jump into it.
Year: 2007
model: base
Mods: Injen dual intakes w/ K&N cone filters; DC Sport ceramic headers; Motordyne ART & TDX2 exhaust; Quaife LSD w/ diff to chassis bracket; South Bend SS clutch/flywheel; NST lightweight pulley set; Mishimoto radiator; Samco radiator hoses; Wilwood master cyl; Z1 CSC relocation kit; Z1 solid transmission mount; Whiteline sway bars/end links; SPC front and rear control arms/toe bolts;
Whiteline Urethane bushings kits; Enkie RP03 wheels; and Isis Performance entry level coilovers.
A few years ago the car was tuned at CIN Motorsports to 317 WHP and 245WTQ. I've got the car in the shop having the suspension hooked up currently, and will be retuning my lady once I get the Z1 upper intake plenum upgrade. After that it's all body work and saving money for some Twins, Basil; Twins! And a set of Akibono BBK w/ Z1's 2 piece rotors. They are so sexy.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the write up, let me know what you think!

Nice car but those numbers are way high. Guess CIN had a BS dyno.
Lol some dynos are much nicer then others. I was thinking it would be lucky to break 300 with all bolt on parts. Still probably better to set your dyno to run higher than lower, people get bummed when they get the same numbers as a stock car after dropping a few $ on parts.

If it makes you feel any better, it was a mustang dyno instead of a dynojet. Even they were surprised by the numbers stating it was more 370Z power.
And it had been in for several retunes, the first time being 305whp. I'm hoping to hit a local dyno for a few runs here in the next few weeks, I'll throw up the numbers once I get them. Until then.. Here's a photo of the tune graph.
