look at the cover car's headlights. They're stock lights...just had the casing opened, and painted the interior, and put back together.
Speaking of which I think the link I posted was your car wasn't it? Hope you don't mind me posting the pic. Just let me know.

A body shop would have to take the lights apart and paint the housings. It looks good on most. I can't remember who it was, but someone had some done on a blue one. I think I could probably be convinced to give you a good deal if you ship them my way.

why thank you.

I'm proud to say it's one of the most heavily modded street Z's in existence. (And one of the most powerful if not THE most powerful street Z)

I'm waiting to see how the '07 turns out in terms of reliability, also looking at the Saturn Sky or maybe a Mercedes SL (older body style).

Who knows, maybe the GTR if an engineering position comes open at work.

off to play with more radioactive stuff.. I expect more pics by the time I get back.

I can find it. With a little motivation I could probably find it a lot quicker.

350Z = 3.5L engine.

420Z = 4.24L engine. It's the same engine...just custom bored and stroked to a larger displacement with 2 huge turbos.

The highest we got so far is only around 850rwhp. We have one more dyno session coming any day now to up the boost a bit more.....

His is a 4.2 liter motor due to a bigger piston and longer piston rod. TT means twin turbo.
