  1. Yes we have added an oil cooler kit from mocal, first time we went on track and we saw 130c oil temp without 3 laps. Now maximum it won't go over 110c no matter how many laps we do. So is a must upgrade if you gonna use your car on the track.
  2. The 370z is having a few upgrade now after the silverstone track day - 1. Nitron is helping us to get the setup optimise, so they took the suspension kit back and giving us new Springs rate and damper rate to test after our initial report to them 2. Carbonetic is sending new Carbon plate for the diff to try different setup 3. Abbey Motorsports Rear diff cooler Ordered 4. ACT Racing Clutch and lightweight flywheel is going in Should be fun when everything back together Anyway here is a New video from Silverstone GP Track day last month -
  3. Hey Guys, thanks for all the photos and video. Sorry I didn't get much time to speak to you guys as I had a long queue that wanna be my passenger so I had to drive for whole day. The guy with the 370 were looking for you guys in the afternoon to give you guy a passenger lap but he said he couldn't find you guys. Yeah Mark the car performed well at Silverstone, loads of torque and engine never miss a beat. I gonna work out some video and post it up later in the week. Hopefully next track day will be warmer and less busy so both the 370z and I can take you guys out for a few lap. Here I have a short clip when the DB9 spun in front of us -
  4. It already have a quick shifter, Rockingham they do static 98db at 4500rpm so both my car and the 370z just pass. We will be doing Silverstone on 24th Feb next Sunday, I will be bringing my S2000 and this 370z will also be there. Pop by and check out the car if you are free.
  5. Is not loud at all, quiet enough to go to any track day in UK. If you want it loud we can take one of the silencer off.
  6. For the full system in Titanium and stainless header you will be looking at £4000. For the header itself will be £1300 for the pair. Header only available in stainless. I will work some price out and put in trader session soon. thanks Dixon
  7. Good to got the car mapped today and the result is impressive. Stock car is pulling 293whp and with just out exhaust upgrade before the map it already pulling 306whp. So a good 13whp or 20bhp ish more just by changing our exhaust system After remap we got 324.3whp and been told we are the highest bhp 370z in the country with just bolt on exhaust modded. Torque is even more impressive gain 25lb/ft at 2500rpm and all the way until the rev cut. Car drive much aggressive after the remap and Mark from Abbey is well impressed by it. I will have the video and photos ready to upload here in a few days time. Come back later for update Thanks to Mark for the help in remap, they are really professional at this. Very impressive service. Dixon
  8. Our system is a full 3 inch 76mm system so it will be good for 500+bhp with our 3 inch exit manifold.
  9. Yeah the kit will get it wrap up in chrome as well within the next 2 weeks. There will be a lot more going into this car. Here is a few lap of me chasing the 370z yesterday at Rockingham, the 370z is driven by this year Asian Touring car champion with the car equipped with the same Dixcel and Nitron like my S2000 I just couldn't keep up with him.
  10. Yeah if we can make it for 370z then yes we can make it for 350z also. Are you just looking for Y pipe and the exhaust system? I will work out some price for you later, should be very similar to 370z system thanks Dixon
  11. The Nitron is not really that expensive for the quality and performance you are getting the 1 way kit is just around £2k and 3 ways kit at £3k. I will sort the price out on the Titanium exhaust and the Dixcel and put on trader area later. Here is some photos from Rockingham -
  12. Hey All, we are lucky enough to help one of our customer to build a brand new 370z to be a track car. As soon as the car come in my customer wasn't very keen on the standard look of the car, so we ordered a full Shine Auto A Style bodykit for the car, they are very similar to the Amuse kit and quality of the kit and carbon is just identical and wrapped in Chrome. This project will be a on going project and it will probably turn into a race car at the end. The first thing we wanna focus is to first get the handling right, after looking at all the available brand on the market, we realise nothing is really up to the standard so I gave my friend who work in Nitron Racing a call and see if they can have something design for me. Most of you may know Nitron if you are into racing or motorbike, they are just on par with Ohlins but because of UK based company is just a lot easier to communicate and customise for our need So here is the day we took the car to Nitron Racing - And after 3 weeks of design and test here is what we got - Look how beautiful is this kit - Nitron 2 way adjustable coilover with separate height and springs preload adjustment. This is the World First Nitron Kit for the 370z. Fitted on the car - Rear - Ride Height setup and Alignment - Next when the Suspension is sorted, we want to get the brake upgrade as the stock brake system is just too soft and weak. And because of our customer is a Formula car champion so his expectation is high. We choose the best available on the market for him which is the Dixcel FCR Carbon slotted disk with the Dixcel Type Z carbon pad and now he said the braking performance is even better than his Formula race car! Also the additional of Bride bucket seat to keep him stop sliding around in the car B&M Short shifter to reduce the shift distance - New MOMO steering wheel with quick release system for him to get in and out the car easier - Next is the interesting bit, the exhaust system will need to upgrade and after he seen the quality of our exhaust system to made for the S2000, he have asked us to make him one for the 370z, BUT in Titanium!! If you wanna see the one we made for the S2000, here is the video - So we got the car in a start stipped the whole system - Standard manifold with only 1.5 inch OD And this is something we came up with - full 2inch OD with 3 inch 76mm exit - To go with Race cat downpipe also in full 3 inch - Titanium Y pipe - , Stock Y pipe 9KG. Our titanium Y pipe is only 1KG And here is our full Titanium exhaust system - OEM system is about 20KG, our system is under 8KG and it sound amazing. Full view under the car - The quality of weld - See how it fit like OEM and with a Race cat We will be soon release this exhaust system to the market will be in Both Stainless or Titanium version, please look out at Trader section The car will be going to Rockingham to have a first shake down tomorrow and have the suspension properly, so keep come back for more update! All the parts you see on here, are all available from us. Please PM for more detail and I will put them in the trader section later this month.

  16. Ok is not a 350z, this is our own project car and road demo car and we will be taking a few stages on the built so one day eventually it will become a full on track car.

  17. That got nothing to do with brake, he shut the door and I had no where to go...
  18. Just front carbon Z pad at the moment right now, comes with no fade warrantee. If you can get them fade=free replacement or full refund.
  19. We have a few set of front set of Z pad in stock for 350z left. Do let me know if you need them for track day session. thanks Dixon
  20. Yeah they are well very built and fit nicely, adjustment were very easy to made as well. Would recommend them for road and track day use! Dixon
  21. Yep thats the one, he mainly only use the car for track.
  22. Today we had a customer came in and got a set of Meister R coilover and Hardrace camber kit fitted. Customer use this car for track only so we gave him a full track setup - Here is the whole conversion from today - Standard - Meister R coilover kit with Hardrace camber kit - Rear suspension out - New one in - We also notice his rear Dixcel Z pad is running abit low so we changed them at the same time - Rear is done, now the front - standard kit out - New kit in with Hardrace camber kit - Alignment time - Stock setup custom modified setup - Result - Went out for a test drive we set the damper setting at 10 click (18 click hardest) and the customer reported the ride quality is actually better than OEM and he was very impressed with the handling even in the wet road today!! Also some random toys at the garage - Supercharged NSXs (yes both of them)
