350z Parts
350z Parts
Ok, Its been an emotional few weeks, with performance parts getting delayed, mistakes being made with orders, someone side swiping me after I just got back on the road in my new Z($3300 worth of damage), to having parts put on, to having them taken off because of the side swiping, and eventually having my car off the road again while its being fixed(havnt gotten to this bit yet.).
Parts which have come in:
US Air Duct
UR Pulley + Belts
Volk GTC Forged Racing Wheels 8.5, 9.5
BridgeStone S03 PP 245X35, 275X35
Was going to get Contactsport tyres but they wear out very fast and I saved $1000 & put it towards Zero-2's instead.
Cusco Zero-2 Coilovers
I didnt take photos of the air duct or pulley as im sure you've seen them all before.

Sorry to hear about the accident.
Now to the questions.
1. Did you get those tyres locally? I thought the S03 was only available here in very limited sizes.
2. How come you cheaped out on the suspension and didn't go for the optional titanium version for another $2000 j/k
3. Could you post a pic of the rear Cusco setup, I've only ever seen the front.

Aps,
1. The tyres were bought locally but they were imported from Japan at some stage. Bridgestone does make it hard for people here to get the tyres they want. For example, say they wanted X100 SO3, Bridgestone Japan may only send them 12. Weird situation, and yes they will only send some sizes to AU etc. But these sizes shouldnt be a problem.
2. I did see the Titanium suspension but in reality the benefits dont outweigh the extra $2000.
Oh and a note on the Zero-2s, dont get the pillow-upper mount version, Cusco Japan came back and said this version is noisey, so go for the Zero-2 Normal version.
3. More photos sure thing, when I get home tonight.

Those tyre sizes weren't available here less than 12 months ago. Hopefully that a good sign.
Was just joking about the Ti version but I do wonder what the weight difference is. Pillow ***** are always noisy. Which version did you get?
You'll have to take me for a ride at some point as that the suspension that's currently sitting at the top of my list so it'd be nice to see what the ride quality is like.

Isn't it exciting opening big boxes?
Big boxes with shinny objects are the best.
I cant move the Cusco box, where they delivered it is where it is staying, its too heavy & big to try to pick up. I think if I wear the T-Shirt that should lighten the load a bit, it is a large.
