Is the Z1 plenum worth it?

 

Mostly nice, understated mods on your NISMO Z33. Those coilovers certainly slam the car, and I wonder how good the ride has become.

 

Not sure to be honest. I spoke with z1 last week and got a vague answer in regards of gains and what not. Might just get it to see myself, worse case sell it

 

Thanks? Car is low yes but didn't sacrifice handling one bit. Rides great. Will be raising it up to to fit a better tire soon

 

Lowering the car should help cornering if the suspension settings are adjusted. How does it ride over rough roads? My lowered Z does well on smooth pavement, but can hit the bump stops when the pavement is patchy. What kind of tires are on the car currently and what are you switching to?

 

Yea, sway bars help too. It handled great prior to the coilovers just feels tighter and filled in the gaps factory set up lacked. It rides good for the most part. In my area majority of the roads are good. When I do encounter a bad road it it'll get touchy haven't smacked subframe or exhaust or anything crazy. Only issue I have is getting some places front bumper may make contact. I'm on Bridgestone potenza s04 pole positions. Really happy with them had then for 2 months now. One I figure out what wheel I'd want looking into a few. Either re11 or toyo r888

 

I think he was being sarcastic....

 

Thanks for clearing that up..

 

I take it you're up closer to palm beach area from the pics? Still don't see many nismos around, although there is another black one on the beach by my job.

Looks good, nice choice on the S04, I have RE-11's on my car now and they are fantastic all around. Not the cheapest tire but so nice to drive on and have been holding up to my abuse perfectly.

 

No I'm actually the ft. Lauderdale area. I see a black one also with a um tag on it all the time. Yea thanks I couldn't pass them on tire rack them on sale, but overall it's a pretty good tire very happy with them, Yea next round re11 for sure heard nothing but great things about them

 

 

Starting to look good, Its always worth spending a few more $'s on decent hoops.
