Hello people.
2005 Roadster owner in Canada joining the club.
I know, this thread is worth nothing without pic's.
The pic's will come as soon as I get the car out of storage, yes not driving this in the snow.
Have a long list of mods already and I have some more minor ones going on this year, all cosmetic.

EDIT:
Finally some images.







I will post some more when I had time to clan the engine bay, way too dirty for pic's right now.

 

Sounds like a great car. Get pictures ASAP. CongratZ.

 

Welcome, what spec and colour is your Z?

 

The car is a Touring 6MT in Silverstone.

 

Welcome! Check the regional forums to find other Z owners in your area if you haven't already connected with the happenings there.

Weather is changing and it won't be long now. You must not put many miles on your Z.

 

I finally got some decent pic's. I will post more later when I have time.

The car has 40K (km) on it so it is being used almost as a daily driver. My work requires me to travel a lot so the Z is parked for most of the week.

 

congrats....welcome...whats the numbers on that beast??? around 380WHP??

 

Hey Lars,
Nice ride. But, there is no way that car is silverstone. Mine is silverstone, that has to be chrome silver.

 

I was told it is silverstone but you can be right, yours is a touch darker.
To tell you the truth I never bothered.
After looking at the spec's for 2005 you are right, it must be a chrome silver .

 

nice!!

 

Nice Roadster!

 

The car needs to be re-tuned because the last number I saw was low 300s for WHP. This is lower and people tell me that it can be tuned more. I think the shop that did the tuning was not too familiar with he VQ and SC, more of a turbo shop.

 

Roadster is looking good. It looks like you have the stillen s/c based on your sig. If so, then whatever power you make is pretty much all your going to make without upgrading to a stage 3 or stage 4. The stillen kits don't make great whp numbers. They are known for their low end tq numbers. You can add more whp by upgrading to a stillen stage 3.

 

Don't like the tails very much. But the rest of the car looks absolutely sick.

 

Trust me the tails are going, I will hve new ones this week.
The guy I bought it from kept both the -06 tails and the clear JDM ones he had on the car. He put them on his new -07 ZR.

I would also like to update the wheels with a better offset, too tucked for my taste.

This car was not built for high WHP but for easy daily driving. The low end torque is good so shifting is not really an issue. It will pull from 1000 rpm on any gear, makes for easy driving. Let's see what I do when the Stillen warranty expires, maybe stage 3 or 4 upgrade.

 

Nice roadster!

Were the Brembo's added? Or is it a Grand Touring (I thought I heard somewhere that all 350z's in Canada were GT's, unless imported from US)? What type/brand of hood is on there?

 

The car came with the Brembo package so it might be a GT, didn't know that all Canadian cars were all GT.
I am going to ask a dealer to tell me what model it is to get all the questions I have out of the way.

The hood is the Stillen Series 2.

 

N-i-c-e Stillen HOOD!!!

 

NOICE!! What a stunning roadie!

 

Here are some pictures with new wheels.
The wheels are the Five:AD in 9.5x19 +25 and 10.5x19 +22.
