I think that i've gained power from 3,5/4k rpm to limit....
the car sounds more aggressive at high rpm...
the screws are too short... and you need different spacer for the strut bar...
Sorry for my english....

Grande Cosimo!

Me too... Perhaps within august i'll put the AAM spacer on my 350Z '05 (i've ordered it this monday directly from AAM website like ***, spoke with Dave)... I hope there will not problems with the low space between the bottom of the strut bar and the top of plenum (ca. 10mm - 3/8")... but here in Milan i've got a good mechanic...

However i'll put today the Nismo cat back on the Z and saturday the popcharger...

Lucky you american guys... in our country the petrol 95 ron (the "normal" here) costs 5,8$ per gallon and 6$ the plus 98 ron...

156 3.2 GTA??

That's incredible... here in Milan (Alfa Romeo=Milan like BMW=Monaco) i've seen only a dozen of GTA in the last 3 years.

I drove it... very good engine and steering. But the traction is not in the right place... But the Z is more better.

u're right.... i understand very well your nickname... i noticed it...
but in this forum there's a lot of italian members....
your nickname means in Italy "Do you like it?"....
but it made more sense on your old car... the Alfa 156 .....

It's cool to know that people in Italy are modding their Z33's. I just thought that I'd quickly mention that I'm the proud owner of a restored 1969 Lambretta SX200 and a 1965 Vespa SS180 (also restored).

Congrats on the spacer. I think it might be my next mod as well.


Cheers!
