Tiger Z Build

Recommended Posts

Hi all! 

 

I've had my LeMans Sunset 2004 350Z (DE) UK model for a year now. Had just short of 62K miles when I bought it. Currently sat on 76K and have spent a fair fortune on maintaining and adding bits here and there.

 

Definitely feeling that the suspension is my next purchase though. Just a tiny bit lower with spacers too. Potentially fresh wheels too.  

 

Here's the list of parts I have so far

 

  1. Full Nismo V1 Kit
  2. GRAMS Splitter
  3. Blacked out badges
  4. Carbon Fibre 350Z Badge
  5. Invidia Gemini True Dual exhaust (straight cut burnt tips)
  6. 18" Black JR Alloys
  7. Berk Technology High Flow Cats
  8. HKS Air Filter
  9. Rear Glass Race Brake Light Mod 
  10. D1 Spec Throttle Controller
  11. Fully refurbished the Brembo pots
  12. Carbon Fibre Wing Mirror Covers
  13. Carbon Fibre Eyelids
  14. Carbon Fibre Plenum cover (with Nismo Motorsports badge)
  15. Machine cut and polished Plenum/Header
  16. Motordyne Plenum Spacer
  17. Orange Silicone Piping throughout Engine
  18. Cusco Red Front Brace
  19. HEL Performance Braided Clutch Line 
  20. Exedy Stage 2 Organic Clutch
  21. Lightweight Single Mass Flywheel
  22. Pioneer DA120 Bluetooth/DAB Head Unit w/ Apple Car Play
  23. Stubbed Arial
  24. All windows professionally tinted

 

Parts to be fitted

 

  1. Mishimoto Radiator
  2. Jim Wolf Technology Popcharger Air Filter
  3. CP 95.75mm Forged Pistons
  4. Drilled Brembo Discs (Front/Rear)
  5. Various colour-coded piping
  6. New OEM W Brace
  7. UpRev Remap (once all fitted)

 

Potential/undecided purchases

 

  1. Haltech Pro ECU 
  2. Fuel Pump

So are you working towards FI?

 

Indeed, I've spent tens if not hundreds of hours of research FI'ing the VQ block. Although cheaper alternatives, I've enjoyed this car an awful lot over the last year and feel the next step. Hoping to stick around the 4/420 mark. Not really up for big power as I want to keep "sensible", if that's even a thing. :lol:

Turbo or Super? There are various set ups of each on here, from rear mount to TT set ups. I know what you mean, there are faster cars, but there is something about the zed that makes you wan tot keep it. 

 

I've always been non-opinionated on turbo and superchargers but I'm definitely aiming towards a single turbo although I'm a huge fan of the TT setups I've seen on here over the years. Torqen/TarmacSportz are the reason I keep coming back to the Z as I keep buying parts! :lol:
