Leosille Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) This is my 2nd round with the 350z. I believe I have gained a good understanding from my 1st love along with the endless threads I have read from this great forum. I have made mistakes, mostly buying hastily and having to do things twice. None the less the forum has inspired me and countless others into spending 'Zeditis'. I was on the verge of changing to a blob eye Sti, however, Osakaben put a spanner in the works when his sc zed went for sale. I managed to pick the car up on Sunday the 19th January after a 300 mile round trip I was home. I would firstly like to thank Bennett for all his help and knowledge and Adrian for the 1000 questions he has answered. As it stands currently: Nismo V2 Front Bumper with Carbon Splitter 07 Bulge Bonnet 19" LMGT4's in Anthracite Grey Falken 453 Tyres Vortech v2 Supercharger Full Kit(Not Tuner)Polished Split Second Piggyback ECU Polished Intercooler Pipes Kinetix V2 Plenum GT Spec Strut Brace Uprated Exedy Clutch Lightened Flywheel Arc Oil Pan (Rare- Possibly 1 in the UK?) Z Speed Undertray Custom Exhaust Brembo GT Big Brake Kit Ferrodo Pads Defi Gauge Control Box Defi Fuel Pressure Gauge Defi Boost Gauge AEM AFR Gauge Alpine Sat Nav in Cubby To do list at the moment: Styling: Firstly I'm going to be taking a visit to RT Performance to have fitted a Blitz rear spoiler to replace the 4holes which currently make up the boot lid. The two bumpers and skirts currently don't fit flush and are not as secure as I want them to be. The underside of the front arches connecting to the front bumper are annihilated so these also need replacing. The rear bumper as it stands I will be changing for the chargespeed I have looked at the Nismo rear bumper and without large skirts I don't believe it would flow. Eyelids may be on the cards after seeing some aggressive looking eyes on others builds. Engine: Currently it sits at 348hp. I would like to join the 400+ club hopefully by Wales 14. CJM stage 0 fuel return system or AAM basic return Aeromotive 340lph fuel pump or Walbro 255 Injector dynamics 725cc or Deatschwerks 600cc injectors Oil cooler- Stillen atm. Unsure which one yet however, as I need to do more research, recommendations welcome its a fast road build and some track use. If you believe I've missed something even really obvious please state. Suspension/Handling I haven't started looking in detail as of yet. Recommendations welcome. Edited January 22, 2014 by Leosille 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
