Hi Phil, sent you a pm mate.

Yip all wheels are mint, no curbing or scratches, haven't really been on the car for long, wheels are in japan and will be shipped by newera, i'm selling everything of pretty cheap as my Z is the only one in Zambia. So no point bringing the stuff or trying to sell it over here, so if you are interested let me know what your best offer is, i'll probably let it go for anything decent! Best wishes, Suhail

Thanks mate, bump for quick sale! What about the aerial? i'm under the assumption it shortens right? Or should i quickly order an S2000 one? Any idea where i can get one in England? Cheers, Suhail

Hi Guys, looking at selling my entire old set up, pictures can be seen below, Wheels are 19" Volk GT-V's with RMC (rays metal coat finish). front 8.5 and rear 9.5 +23 and +24 offset, wheels will come with Rays blue wheel nuts but no tyres, please pm best offers. Body kit consists of trial front lip and side skirts + veilside v1 rear skirt. I also have the Veilside V3 rear spoiler with carbon blade, it's already sprayed black will let it all go for a reasonable offer, both the kit and wheels have only been on the car for 3000miles. Cheers, Suhail

Ello Matt! Nice to see you made your way over here , i never knew you sold your GTR mate! How's my Z coming along? Ciao, Suhail

Thanks mate, already mentioned to my g/f i'll be buying an R34 again sometime- she isn't a very happy camper!

Kev, as stated above for me the GTR was at a stage where i just couldn't extract anymore power out of it without letting tuners here get their hands on the engine, which i didn't want. My immediate thought was to upgrade to a nur-spec but it wasn't financially viable for me at the time, hence i opted for the Z after researching all the other cars available. It would be nice to have a non-turbo sports car for a change, different experiance for me and a first in both normally aspirated and RWD. The nur-spec is still very much on my list of wanted cars and hopefully will get one soon if all goes well, the Z is going to be fun too(i hope) 400bhp @ the flywheel? The few dyno readings i've received from SA on APS TT converted 350Z's on stock internals at .6bar have been approximately 450-470 @ flywheel, this is on a dynapack. There's 5 TT Z's running around in Southern Africa and all have dynoed similarly on the same dyno and all on stock internals still intact AFAIK. Surely 450bhp and 400lb/ft of torque is attainable from the stock internals? Rgds, Suhail

Thanks Digsy, i can't wait to see it! As for the wheels, the GTS is what i had my heart set on from the moment i bought a black Z, just something i had to do

I agree, the 07 Z has extensive modifications to the engine etc (far more than your list) and that is only rated at 310ps. If they could have achieved 330-350ps with your mods, surely they would have? Very nice Z and R34 though That's what's confusing me at the moment, from speaking to tuners in America and Japan according to most of them 270rwhp would be achievable at the very least with the above mods, i'm sure with an extra 40bhp the Z would shift no doubt, but there's too many negatives from owners in the uk and South Africa. I haven't sat in or driven a TT Z before, it costs approx 5k pounds to get it set up tuned and installed in South Africa, do you guys think that is a good price?

I was in two minds about the splitter originally, but after having seen the other options out there the C-west option went well with the car. As for tuning power house amuse are the best, no doubt and there Z33 is absolutely mental, having said that it would cost a pretty penny to have it all done at once, sometimes i feel i should have spent the extra cash on engine tuning rather than exterior mods first so the car could be done in Japan. o well ..

In all honesty it wasn't something i initially wanted to do, but having said that my nearest tuner is 1000miles away, i planned on modding the GTR to a much higher power level but didn't want to risk it being done here in Africa. Hence i sold it and bought the Z as a car i'd use for a little while until i had enough funds to source a properly tuned R34 from Japan. Newera have already been told to look out for a Nur spec next year sometime, hopefully if things go well i'll get a nur-spec next year sometime with 550-600bhp without having to worry about Tuners in South Africa touching the motor. It was a tricky decision to make, and above everything else my g/f loves the Z Diffuser is a Topsecret one

Hi lomoto, traffic has become quite bad over the last couple of years, used to be decent before. Roads are ok, no motorways like England though, and to be honest not much room to go flat out on in high Bhp cars, my skyline was pushing out approx 440bhp (flywheel) and very rarely could i go through the first 3 gears flat out. The Z should be alot more fun to drive though, has just the right amount of power to enjoy here. Roads are ok now, used to be terrible a while back.

Yip those figures are flywheel figures, whats the highest flywheel figure you guys have seen in the UK on a n/a Z? Thanks for the kind words guys, can't wait for the new wheels to go on

Hi Sarnie, i hope that isn't true, i've recently spoken to the guys over at Tomei in Japan who gave me a modlist + EMS to take the car up to-according to them 330-350ps @ the flywheel, This included; - EMS - Tomei cams - Exhaust + decat pipes - Headers - Plenum spacer - Lightened clutch and flywheel - Lightened pully - Intake Going by this and taking note of the figures stated, i'd say it would make the Z a cracking car to drive in n/a form, turbo power is one thing, but a quick n/a car is simply beautiful to drive. Correct me if i'm wrong but i'm sure a motor with 287bhp standard (in japan) can get an extra 30-50 bhp from all the above mods? Rgds, Suhail
