Hi ! My name is David and this is my 2007 350z. I bought it back in May 2014 and it's been a joy ever since. Not a whole lot done to it... just minor aesthetic mods. I plan on aiming for 400hp as soon as I get repairs done to it. I want to get some issues resolved like the suspension. It still sits on aftermarket springs that came with the car when I bought it... and driving on my roads (I live in Oklahoma) is a pain the a**. It has problems, like the window motors need to be replaced, the factory stereo doesn't let you skip songs or go to a different radio station and along with other things... but my main focus is becoming more knowledgeable with it so I can do my own mods/repairs and also becoming a better driver. MY mods so far have been, 19x10.5 TTA TE37s, DEPO headlights and a nismo V3 front bumper. I had to sell the bumper due to personal issues but I plan on picking up a VIS AMS bumper. I've been in and out in my local car scene but I plan on returning with a fresh look and a new mindset. Hopefully, I can start on my goals for it soon when I get the problems out the way. So... glad you read this far and feel free to give me feedback/advice. Thanks !

There are definitely a ton of FI options for the HR now. Fast intentions has put their kit on the HR several times and AAM makes a nice kit as well.
HRs if anything have the best aftermarket support as they share items with a car still in production. With 340 HP at the ground being obtainable NA (Albeit at the same price as a turbo kit)
After you get your exhaust squared away, pick up a Ported upper and lower intake from a 370. (you also need fuel rails) And enjoy not loosing 80Pound feet of TQ from 6000-7500rpms
yeah when i was looking for options, 2.5-3 years ago, there werent many. since i sold the car i had no reason to check up on them. thanks for the info though

Slightly off-topic question, which generation is your favorite for the vette? We own a '97 (first year of C5) and have done a lot of work to it just in maintenance/upkeep.

i would like to have a c3...but obviously i love the looks of my c6z
Welcome and good job on getting rid of those pink wheels. The TE37's look much more at home on your Z. Also I was looking into the Amuse front end myself but found super mixed reviews on them. Shine Auto was at the top of the list for best fitting and VIS was hit or miss. So best of luck.
If you miss your Nismo front end, a vendor here APTech makes a similar bumper and it is polyurethane vs FRP.

Nice ride OP,
NiLL, this 80ft lbs you speak of sounds insane... Do you mean to say that if I were to install the ported manifolds as you mentioned, the torque curve wouldn't drop off? My build makes 287 around 5k and tapers down to about 220 at 8k. If about 290ftlbs were made at 8k rpm, the engine would be putting down about 440whp which does not sound realistic. If the lower and upper 370 ported manifolds will really make a difference like that, then I probably have to start looking for them soon
