Default "Bad 350z's Build Progress"










made 240whp on the first pull then a huge jump to 265whp on the second pull w/ fujita short ram intakes, and an injen catback exhaust. even the guy running the dyno was impressed and didnt think it would put down them numbers.

this was in july 09, car now has injen cold are intakes.

picked this stuff up saturday.

Vis oem style carbon fiber hood
carbon fiber fenders

Volk Rays SF-Challenge
Front 18x9 +10 w/ 225/40/18
Rear 18x10 +11 w/ 265/35/18







really had to modify the fenders to fit. just about every bolt hole on the fenders had to be made bigger or longer to allow adjustment.

thanks, still debating on a full cf front bumper, or just a lip w/two cf intake cut outs.

but for now sticking with the stock front until i make up my mind.

Still nice CF nonetheless...
+1 if you don't have a full CF front bumper it won't look right with the CF fenders

i think to appreciate it you need to see it in person, it looks fine with the front black, i actually like it that way because most cars with cf fenders it is the entire front.

car looks good. imo put some spacers on for a more aggressive stance. Maintain that clean look.

you're off to a good start man, how much weight do you actually save with cf fenders vs stock ones?

not much i helped install them, it is maybe a 2 pount drop per fender and maybe 5 for the hood. we planned to weigh them but couldnt come up with a scale so we said screw it.

i plan on geting the lips repolished and maybee geting the ceters painted or black chromed not to sure yet thoe. I want more carbon fiber but its pricy so it will have to wait a while gonna do the bumper next after the coil overs thoe.
