Nice build thread you've got going on !! What's the deal with the race logic thing? How does it work and why is it better to have one than not?........... It's more advanced than than the standard system, to help with traction especially when the supercharger gets fitted Look up race logic on the web and watch the videos they have on there, pretty impressive I thought -

I know what you mean, I do like the standard Rays and also the Forgestar wheels so still no decision made on them yet, and I do think the side skirts will be better back to white. Thanks for all the comments so far -

Just a note for anyone fitting spacers; I think the 25mm for the front are very slightly too much and would probably fit 20mm tbh Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -

Yes you're right about that, I suppose I'll be putting my hand in my (getting very empty) pockets again Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -

My pads were on the low side before the trip so I read up on here about pads and with the advise of Mitz from the Cougar store I fitted these EBC red stuff pads all round and after proper bedding in on the way to Germany they proved faultless on the track so I would certainly recommend them for fast road use Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -

I'll be honest it was pretty daunting first time out on the track what with adverse cambers, not knowing which way the track goes and low flying Porsche and BMW's but I just kept calm and built my confidence up after each lap and before you know it you're hooked Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -

I like them close up especially when you open the door and you see the carbon effect sill but I think you're right I will be fitting the White ones on with the spats off Parello9 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -

Yes you're right, I've bought Parellos side skirts in white so I can change them without pulling the wrap off mine as it wasn't cheap to have done Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -

Yes I think you're right but I might lose the carbon effect on the side skirts, but it does look better when you're next to the car. I'm also surprised how different the black roof has made the car look -
Pads arrived today thanks Mitz

Poor little thing,hoping she gets well soon. My daughter was very ill with chicken pox at 4 so count me in Go to the 'Just Giving' website as an idea, and set up a charity for her on there and post a link on here or your facebook if you have one, it works very well and I would love to donate Best wishes to you and her family -

Noooo two of us are taking Zeds, we went last year and had a fantastic time , we've just run out of time to install the supercharger before we go as any teething troubles won't be good in Germany so will sort it when we return Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -

After a long search of Nissan 370's around the country and many "oh yes it's mint mate" disappointments I dropped on my car at the Jct600 dealership in Bradford purely by chance after returning from yet another not as described 370. We took a short cut which took us past the dealership and there she was on one of those rotary turntable thingies in all her glory, needless to say it was mint. The deal was done and I was the proud owner of my 2009 370z GT spec storm white coupe with 17,000 miles on the clock. That was two years ago and other than an Invidia Gemini exhaust, Stillen Gen 3 intakes and 25mm spacers all round it's pretty much standard. Until now, so here is my build thread hoping you find it interesting. I started reading the members builds on here and Zeditis started to set in. I decided to go and look at the very latest 370 Nismo, trading mine in as a part exchange, thinking they would offer me a decent price. WRONG. £10.000 against a £38000 car... I don't think so. So I decided I would go down the supercharged route and all the suspension and brake upgrades as well. Enter Adrian from TORQEN After contacting Adrian and him patiently answering my many questions regarding superchargers, brakes, suspension and traction control, I decided to go for a complete set up starting with the TORQEN Monster Big Brake kit, with front and rear 8 and 6 pot, which was fitted last Friday. Pictures below: Here's a picture with Adrian's Nismo 19" wheels on my car: Then these bad boys were fitted: And this SPL, Eibach and GT Spec lot from Adrian's car: Now do I have Adrian's Nismo 19" wheels: Or stay standard with mine? I've had the side skirts wrapped in Avery carbon look wrap, but I don't know if I like them? Comments please Ignore the red stripe that's something the wrapping lads did thinking it would look good... It's gone now Oh and the roof wrapped in gloss black, keeping this on.
