Will watch this with great interest. Looking good so far!

Got my Zed when I was 25 and used to really love driving around listening to loud music, but the more I learned about 'proper' driving, the less I wanted to listen to music. I'm 30 now and never listen to music in the Zed. I much prefer listening to the engine now and it also helps with heel and toe down shifting as I can hear the revs much better. PS. I'm fully aware that the above statement makes me sound like a bit of a 'beard and pipe' sort of guy, but I don't care

Your best bet is probably using a stock photography site. When I was working as a graphic designer I used to use this site http://en.fotolia.com/ Really cheap and loads to choose from

Holy crap! I've just had a serious trouser accident looking at that!

+1 for REIS for me too. I've used them for individual track day cover and they give much more comprehensive cover than many other company's offering track day insurance. You won't go wrong with them

Oh God, it's finally here... the big three zero has finally caught up with me! No matter, I shall forget all about this by consuming copious amounts of booze

A very mooving piece of music

I'd probably say uprated pads (Performance Friction or Carbon Lorraine), braided brake hoses and some Motul RBF600 fluid and a set of Eibach sway bars. That lot + fitting should come to about £1,000. That should give you a much better handling car

Presumably the metallic colours are the more expensive ones.

Any idea if these dampers are intended to be track focussed or more for road use? Also, how is the rear damping adjusted once in situ?

I've also got the GT Spec CF Strut brace and have no problems using a plenum spacer. Didn't even need to use the supplied strut bar spacers/washers.

Wow, that's low Looking great though

Sounds Back end looks like an albino Darth Vader to me though

Have a look here http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=43743 Abbey Motorsport posted in this thread about converting the rear to true coilovers and they reckon you need to strengthen the rear top mounts to take the increased load. Might be worth a chat with them to see what's needed

You do realise that the rear suspension on a Zed doesn't use coilovers, it uses a separate spring and damper? From the look of that set of XYZ's they look like true coilovers on all four corners. If you're converting the rears to true coilovers I think you'll need to do some additional strengthening.

Oh sweet Jesus, I've just noticed the bit that lists the Exterior Features... Exterior Features Catalytic Converter, Alloy Wheels, Tuning Seriously, this has to be a joke right?

lol, someone please email and ask for a dyno plot. Someone should report this. Some poor guy in a dealer probs believed the seller when he told him the info to get better than market value I'd love to know in what way it's been "Nismo tuned"... other than the addition of the badge of course

I love the way it says "Nismo tuned" twice in the description, just incase you weren't convinced "Over 300bhp" is a little optimistic too

+1 Can't wait to see this developing!

Have you tried contacting ZMANALEX for a HR engine? He had some for sale a while ago. Definitely worth a shot if you haven't already tried. Alternatively R35LEE breaks Zeds so try him too. Can't see why you couldn't substitute a DE for a HR, but it would really be a downgrade. I think you'd also need to swap the transmission, ECU and loom too.

Bloody idiots

This is looking fantastic! I'd love to have a fully stripped and caged track day z. Maybe one day...

Can't beat a bit of carbon fibre
