tkuntz's Nismo #612
 

Hello fellow Z members. I thought i would join the band wagon and make a personal thread on my Nismo and the plans i have for it in the future.

I picked this ride up here in Canada as a fellow in my city brought it up from Santa Clara California in the summer of 2011. The previous owner had an accident while quading one weekend, thankfully he was fine but the car was just way to stiff of a ride for him. He could drive it for an hour or two and after that he would be nearly bed ridden for a few days and in turn decided to sell the car as it wasn't serving a purpose other then a trophy in his front yard. I got luck and stumbled across it on a used car site one day and bought it the following morning. Never been so happy to own a car until now.

When i bough said Nismo she had 12k miles on it and a he had installed a Bully Dog gas GT tuner, I am unsure as to the advantages to this tuner in comparison to Osiris and other brands. Since owning this car i have made the following mods.

Engine/Exhaust:
INJEN Long tube intake
ARC tower bar
ARC oil cap
ARC rad cooling panel
ARC rad cap
ASM Torsion Bar
ZToyz Caps
Invidia Gemini True Dual
Invidia Test Pipes

Interior:
ARC shift nob
BRIDE Digo seats
Takata MPH Harnesses
Enjuku K-style Harness bar

Exterior:
Project Kics Neo Chrome lug nuts
Tinted lights around
Short Antenna



Here are just a few pictures and a clip of the exhaust.

The day I picked her up!

Here is a quick Iphone vid of the Invidia Exhaust, hopefully i can purchase a good video camera in the future to get a better quality video.

For now this is where I am at and hopefully I can continue to build off of what I currently have. I hope you all have fun viewing my page and I hope to hear from you guys in the future, thanks again for taking the time to checkout my 350z.

Damn your ASM torsion bar! Looks good brother.

Thanks for sharing!

If your engine baby is prelude to the rest the car! We're in for a treat!

thx for the sale big guy, its been a nice addition.

thx big guy, i hope i can keep up the mods in the future, stayin tuned for your interior mods your doin.

thx big guy!

Looking good buddy!

damn looking good. What percent are you taillight tints and where did you purchase them from?

Looks great! I expected to see some green rider decals on her... lol.

thx big guy.

I actually tinted them myself, i got the night shades tail light tint in a can. I didn't wanna go to dark so i only did 3 light passes on each if memory serves me correctly, turned out great, ill have to get a night shot for ya.

ha as much I love my riders, I just cannot come to the realization of putting a rider sticker on my car ha, thanks, your kit looks sweet.

If anyone here who has had a sneak peek at my page, there is a group of us here in Saskatoon Saskatchewan who are having a local car show and I am extending the invitation out to anyone who would like to make the trip.

Bay looks nice and clean, Love the ARC

thx man, I instantly fell in love with ARC as soon as I saw it and from there it just took off.

Now i'm currently dealing with a cracked flex pipe on my Invidia Gemini exhaust. It happened on the driver's side where all the issues have arose with the rattling at about 1700 RPM. So not even a month after being installed there's a leak and it's coming from that flex pipe, hoping this is going to be honoured under their 1 year warranty!...

Why downgrade your suspension to Stance crap?

Hey, sorry it took so long to reply but i doubt i'll be able to make it :icon27:. Im working almost every weekend, its brutal, but i gotta make that money :suicide:

Seems to have some good reviews and I wasn't planning on going to a track being that there isn't one within hours of where I am. I know there are more high end out there but I suppose we will see in time for now it was just a thought but we all know how thoughts turn into bigger wishes. Wont be in the near future that's for sure ha.

I hear ya man, it's been crazy with the trains and im looking forward to my holidays and a nice road trip through the mountains to BC in the Z.

Great looking car. I love how the Invidia Exhaust sounds :thumbup:

-Tanner

Great build!

Thanks, me to! the only thing that I am NOT a fan of is the location of the flex pipes on the true dual.

Had the system on for less then 30 days and the drivers side is now leaking, Invidia HAS come up with a replacement for both the drivers and passenger side so now I wait till those come in the mail, all under warranty of course :thumbup:

Thanks!

...

Looks awesome! Keep it up.
