Hi everyone,

I bought my 03 Track 350Z in July 06 and love it. It's stock for now, but will get a Supercharger or Twin Turbo's on her later on down the track.

I used to own a R33 Skyline with 280rwhp but needed a change and the 350Z was a great upgrade, not as powerful but handles the road A LOT better than the Skyline.

Ciao for now.

Hey fellow Antipidean, haha, maybe your greeting should have been "gidday",

Welcome to Z community. I think Kiwi's must some of the few to normally & brand new cars always refer to rwkw's. Interesting you've quoted hp.

Thanks for the greetings everyone

Yes Bronzee, most of the Dyno's over here are quoted in rwhp and not in kw. I don't know why, its just the way it is LOL. My Stock Z made 214.8rwhp or approx 161.1rwkw just recently on a Club Dyno day (Commodore Car Club of WA) which I am happy with..........for the moment

I don't know what the dyno on mine is, last dyno day we had I went, and just had to watch as my Zed has had major mechanical issues for months. Sad. Our dyno's are primarily in rwkw's, then secondary hp. Thankfully should all be finally mechanically sound this week, so will be organising another dyno day, before hard out modding begins. Been a very long haul.

So you going to show up pretty picys of your LS Zed across the ditch cousin??

Ha, you Aussies are quick studies Bboy.

So DZ33 was your previous car a Holden, the old Aussie icon?? That is before your Skyline. Seems funny to go to a Holden Club meeting. I hear from a few mates in Auz the Z clubs don't have many meets, or maybe that's where they are in Sydney.

Yes, Bronzee I had a Commodore previously (V6 179.3rwhp, was too slow) then a R33 Skyline (13.3sec and 279.2rwhp) and now have the Stocko 350Z (214.8rwhp).

I will do more mods when I get back from Holidays (I'm going to LA, California and Tokyo, Japan this Christmas....can't wait )

2001 Commodore Lumina


1994 Nissan R33 Skyline


2003 Nissan 350Z

Haha, sorry been off doing car club things last few days, now I got my Zed back, fanging around the countryside.

Haha, LS with tan leather, pretty & being an '03 you don't have to wear the engine in.

Haha, DZ33 got a thing about chrome rims.
