Well, there are plenty of aftermarket parts for the Z out there now, not hard to make one a head turner. I have been working on mine for a little over a year and still not done. Here is recent picture...

I think the idle speed is important, perhaps set yours 50 rpm higher to see if that helps... If I get a light that will be my next move... Good luck...

Plugs...

Yea, my idle is set at 850 and has been doing fine. I will probably try the Iridium plug, where did you find the plugs and are you running a hotter or colder plug.

I went with stock heat range, no plans on going NOS or F/I
Good luck... Let us know how it turns out..

Man, your signature is starting to look alot like mine. Nice addition with the Crawford V5. You should dyno between 268 to 270 at the rear wheels maybe more. Keep us posted...

And which would work better with forced induction applications?

The Nismo cams make more power down low.. JWT S1's more midrange and upper end... JWT's are preferred for FI applications
My Nismo's are great!!!

Anybody have any thoughts on these Nismo Cams. There is a typo i believe in the description of the R-Tune Cam. It should say 262/256. What do you guys think about those Spec 1 and Spec 2 cams. Very aggressive. But not sure if they will fit in the stock head.

As far as the NISMO cams Vs JWT cams I know that either Jeff or Jason and Performance Nissan has tried both cams so they would be able to give you there opinion.

can350z,
Doesn't your engine scream a little louder now at 5200 rpm when your torque curve begins to climb again? I love watching my tach in forth gear right around 5200, and then feel the car begin to pick up speed again!
