Default BamBam's 500HP Roadster

Just thought I would drop this link in here giving an update on the winter changes to my car. I hope it gives some ideas on how far you can go if you want with HP or with a customized interior.

https://my350z.com/forum/forced-induction/185275-monster-roadster-update-502whp.html

I hope to see everyone at HIN and let me know what you think.

I have a major overhaul on the audio/interior in the works now, I will post updated pics from the HIN display this weekend. Keep your eyes and ear open...

Thanks, it has taken a lot of hard planning and patience so far.. I hope it all turns out to be as unique as I thought in my mind.

You are correct on both counts. I am always surprised when people can actualy recognize him.

It comes from my time living in China, some of the artwork I have and my military Background. The horses tie into my chinese name, so it was a collage to my time over there and my desire to return as soon as I can.

As for the cage, yep I know and have been in discussions with various shops on possibilities. It has not been done yet for the roadster and many feel it will be impossible without destroying the top. Still working on it though.

God in heaven, that's the most amazing roadster I've seen to date.

My 2004 black touring roadster is still mostly stock (spent the last two years concentrating on the house and other toys), but this one's really, really getting me energized.

BamBam - awesome work, you're a genius. Damn you.

Thanks guys for the compliments.

Yes the Graphics are uniquely mine. Not sure how long they will stay but for the moment I like them and the theme they represent.

As for the engine, there is a lot more to come. Just taking more time then anticipated to make sure it is done right.

VERY sweet ride. I'm trying to keep my baby N/A because I want to keep her 'til she's a classic. Cars like yours make it very difficult to stay N/A.

I hope to see your ride in person somewhere,

Not sure when the car will be around New York (except driving through).
I know it is supposed to be at HIN and Funkmaster shows throughout the year. I should be in HIN, Boston on the 29th/30th April and I will be in Philly for a Funkmaster Flex show sometime this summer. But none of that is too close to you. Sorry man
