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!

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. 

Old system out. Terrible state (and the cats were shot) so I treated her to an Invidia Gemini and Berk HFC's. Video/pictures with it fitted to follow.

The pictures have gone offline sadly - any chance we could get these back up? Read it before when they were working and seemed and awesome guide!

Can you add me to the V3 list please Chris! If it picks up enough interest I'll send you the deposit.

Cheers,

James

This project is massive. Really tempted to follow suit of something similar, absolutely stunning work! Eager to hear it, too.

Spotted down at Oasis Cafe with a female passenger taking a photo at the time! Nice to see another Zed this way!

Passed you & got a wave on the way to work in the morning, then passed the same one (I think) on the way back home in the afternoon! Good colour choice 👊
This would be me! Was scouring this forum on Friday in hope I'd see if I could find you spoke about this all weekend - how bizarre it was to pass the the same Zed in the same day (I'd been down to Goole that morning) - I waved the second time coming back but missed flashing back as I was zoned on the shocking weather that day!

Really nice Z, was good to see another Zed in sunset! Was unaware of another Zed popping about in Scarborough.

Evening! I'm James, 25, from not-so-sunny Scarborough. Purchased an 04' 350Z a few weeks ago and have fallen in love after wanting one for many moons. Had lots of Nismo stuff done including an UpRev map and a bunch of different parts fitted. Rarely see a Zed in this area but since owning one I've seen a couple! Really interested in meeting other Nissan/ 370/50z owners in the region.

Here's my social media: https://www.facebook.com/jmartindavies - incase you want to meet-up on the coast, give me a shout!

Sorry for the terrible images lifted from my Instagram. I plan to get out with the proper camera and take some shots. I'll also upload some more later when I get chance!

Hope to stick around and keep the Zed running!

Regards,

James
