Same, dying to take mine out, this winter is dragging on too long.

 

I kind of hate myself for starting a long project on the Z, even with that nice weather coming soon, I wont get to drive the Z until June probably...

a small teaser



Btw, no its not a weak wrapping but an hybrid carbon fiber / blue Kevlar .

 

^ Keep us posted!!

 

How about when you first got your Z?

It was so good 2007 my first ever convertible sports car couldn't take the smile off my face for weeks.

 

Then you got the bug. Bad. Lol

 

I was 24 when I got mine, it was almost new. It went straight to my head.... I had a condo too.
I'll have it sold after I'm dead.

 

I got mine in 2004. I was also 24. A decade of ownership.

That splitter is my old from 2011/2012 season, it is now quite too small but this is just temporally until I start the next splitter project soon.

 

Dude your car looks all JGTC. Wow.

 

yeah there was some ideas taken from a few different series DTM / JGTC / Time attack cars...

there is more to come because this is just the Ver1.0 body
but the big issue is power which I cant easily add at this point...

 

Cams and a good intake/exhaust. 380whp?

 

that was the plan after blowing up the VVEL engine. The current HR engine stroked to 3.7 from the VHR crank/rods is ready to receive any type of big cams if needed since I did the cams clearing process while putting the engine back together.

this was in the winter of 2013 then the wife left, leaving me with debt !
so that project was put on hold.

The competition has step up since the last time I went on the track. Ive seen more F/I setup and LS swap than I use to in the pass. The N/A version of the VQ would be too expensive to run properly which need other modification needed to get the RPM needed and power.

At this moment I am looking to make my own Single turbo setup. Doing everything myself will reduce the price of the setup much lower.

 

Please give me advice on my 350z that Im about to purchase!!!
Its a 2004 Nissan 350Z Convertible has 115 km on it ( orig. american car 73,000) automatic. I offered 10.5k and has been accepted. Is it a good deal? help!!

 

I'd say not bad depending on condition and history.

 

Theres only a minor scratch on the front bumper!!
But there is another 350z... 2003 Nissan 350z Performance package that has 109k on it with a built 2006 VQ35DE(350z) Motor. Proffesionaly swapped. Red on black leather interior. Bose sound system. Wires for sub and amp are included.
Also ;
(Magnaflow Cat Back Exhaust System
Wiseco Forged Pistons & Wiseco Forged Connecting Rods
Exedy Stage 1 Clutch with Leightweight Flywheel
Cold Air Intake
Lowered on Tien Springs.
Built engine with Wiseco internals.
Engine: 109,000km
Drivetrain: 161,030km

which one is a better deal? (price is 9500)

 

those are vastly different cars. Hard to compare them. If the engine was built like that it was likely supercharged or turbo charged before?

I mean no one does that unless they need to. Maybe they sold the supercharger and are selling it as is.

 

Hmm the guy is a bit a sketch when answering questions so Im gonna go with the convertible!! Is there any further questions I should ask the person before I purchase the car? (other than the standard questions)

 

My Volks are for sale if anyone is interested.

Wu-Watt, those would be so nice. Loving the red trim on them.

 

They are awesome wheels. I think people love/hate the red stripe, but I dig it.
