See that's the thing with this "white dragon" he firmly said he's not dragging this car or trying to push it against other vehicles!

More like a "white salamander"

Still in for the finish

Cool. I'm truly rooting for a success story.

I fear that is the only thing that can bring any kind of closure after the saga/history of the threads on this topic.

Hopefully they've broken through some of the challenges that they were facing on the new platform. It'll be my luck that they've found the magical key and the 370 is going to be the bee's knees - right as I'm pulling things together for an LS swap in my 350. It's just like when I get in line at the store, whatever line I end up in will always be the slowest.

I'll tell you right now, an ls powered 350z will not get out powered by a 370z. They get big twins and stroker? You get cams, nitrous and headers.
Really don't have to worry about the latest and greatest when you got displacement, sadly...

The new thread on "that site" about the progress of the car is titled:

"New 370z Widebody in the process!"

It looks like they killed any of the threads related to the dyno claims, etc. Oh well, old news…

I paid off and sold my Z before this project got done. This project definitely failed.

They did some pretty amazing body work i will admit, but i think it's just a little to flashy for my personal prefference, but non the less it's a pretty sick build.

Lots of threads on the car have been covered up, and deleted...

FLASHY

not detected on that car at all!

I've been lurking and posting on that site for years now and the final build price whichis still growing he will not disclose is ridiculous...for the same money, one could only imagine what some of the guys here in the FI section could build...

I'm not a know it all, but reading some of the thread it's not rocket science to going fast or achieving big horse power when money is no issue...

**** by the time it's finished the 370Z might be discontinued...

Yes, but you have more than half a brain and can walk and talk at the same time...

These are 25mm (each fender) wider than stock in the front and are completely functional in both their fitment applications and aerodynamic concepts. The rear is 3" wider (each fender). Please Enjoy the pictures Below:










And Finally one of NISMO!
update!

LOL Those front fenders and the little trim pieces on the edge of the front bumper look like ****.

...and still waiting to see proof of the claimed 1000whp.
