Im liking those.... very similar to the APR mirrors (had them on my old supra). Sexy as hell, but not very useful.

It was pretty sweet considering it was thrown together quickly and is only using similar suspension settings to a standard car but is definitely a good start. I'm not sure about the weight saving yet but I will be taking it home in early july back to my parents farm and will put it on the weighbridge so I'll get a good idea then Great! Look forward to the results... and loving that front bumper!

Would love to, but I dont get pictures, just an error saying bandwidth has been used. Nice! Shame you cant find the 350z half cage in there.....

Thats a fair old amount of space

Thanks, will have a read of that. Will also have a look at customcages, always liked their stuff

What good bolt-in cages are out there for the 350z? Ideally looking for a rear half cage that bolts in with harness bar/mounts. The plan is to remove all the plastic and metal behind the seats, as well as the rear strut brace and hopefully be able to use the space for a spare set of wheels.

How much additional weight does this kit add to the car? That SC unit looks HUGE!!!

great that you got it out!!! how was it? Work to be done, but good? do you have an idea of the final weight of the car?

damn..... 3rd. Do I jump up if I take the wheels as well ?

I will take dibs on the front bumper if its not collected What size are the wheels? I didnt see any info in the post

Im having BC coilovers fitted this week

what area is slys workshop? Rochester area

Nice find!! I may have to make a trip over there No idea but from the shape of it & amount of fuel injectors it's a V8, ....with twin turbo chargers no less. it was the intercooler that threw me, but looks good.... really liked the piping from the intercooler

What engine is that????

My backbox is sitting at Slys workshop

Would be worth it Thanks! Will keep it updated... have some good events this year. ASDA charity lap day, fast lap day with Nissan, 1 mile event and hopefully a couple of track days

Mine have just started to crack, very fine small cracks and some crazing.... if I didnt plan for track, I would leave it, but the I think the heavy use will kill them rather quickly. Also judders when stopping from higher speeds. Im on 21k miles now Im tempted by the larger AP discs, just not sure they are as good - slightly thinner to keep the weight down, which causes its own issues.

Thanks all Already have braided lines and uprated fluid.... Not done many track days, but hoping to do a few more. 380mm or 405mm discs?

Well just back from a roadtrip..... 4200 miles in 3 weeks and the GTR was fantastic! 2200 miles with 15 other GTRs trip went through France, Italy, Croatia, Slovenia, Germany and back to France. Did a single "tourist" lap of Nurburgring, in torrential rain - couple of us were led by someone that knows the track (who was on Dunlops ). Laptime was was around 16 minutes I think, I have it on the BlackVue Only issues I had was a TPMS sensor kept losing the plot and had to put some oil in. Also managed 164mph on the de-restricted sections of the autobahns and lost my nerve, since the slower drivers loved to just pull out at the last minute with no notice. Had absolutely fantastic responses everywhere we went, the locals were great!!!!! On a side note, my front discs and pads had started to crack (very very fine) before the trip, so now need to look for new brake discs and pads.

Well dropped the car off at sly... He has it for 3 weeks maybe more should be rather different once I get it back

It's a hard life and totally not jealous at all!!! Did I forget to mention that I officially stopped working on Monday and I am currently unemployed sitting at home having a F&F marathon......... So unfair, but I'm sure you've worked hard and deserve it! I would love to agree and say "yes".................... Only joking! Have worked hard for it all, been buying property since I was 19 and been doing lots of overtime since November

It's a hard life and totally not jealous at all!!! Did I forget to mention that I officially stopped working on Monday and I am currently unemployed sitting at home having a F&F marathon.........

car visits Sly on Friday and will stay with him for 3-4 weeks. While I am on holiday, driving the GTR the around France, Italy Germany and Switzerland, Sly will be hard at work fitting the suspension, brakes and doing a few other odd jobs on the car.

looking like an actual car now!! congrats
