jamiesupra Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 cheers. i dont know much about 350s - (ask me about an RX or supra and i know them insude and out) so i hav e lot of detail and info to learn about. what models are there? what power (stock) are each model? what spec do they come with? do any have paddle shift? im used to a lot of power so i wil prob turbo / supercharge one... is it true that the conrods are fragile with forced induction set ups? sorry for all the Qs lol Quote
martinmac Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Welcome to the forum bud. Have a look in the guides and mods sections, there are too many options to list here. The zed is a great car though. Quote
jamiesupra Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 so is there a thread / sticky technical section listing each model / model variance so i have an idea which model / year is best for me Quote
P15UL T Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Welcome mate, that is a sweet car, always had a soft spot for the rx7 always buy the cars mags, so will keep an eye out for your beast Paul Quote
martinmac Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=17 Most of it is in here bud. There is a guide with the differences between imports and UK cars. As for UK cars themselves ther have been several upgrades over the years. Apart from that there are two specs. The standard and the GT. GT having Rays alloys, bluetoothe, bose stereo, leather heated seats, cruise control. All UK cars are manual. Anything else just post it up. I am off now but Sarnie will take over the night watch Quote

I am off now but Sarnie will take over the night watch I'm here dude UK cars 2003-05 have 276 bhp, there was a GT4 limited edition mainly 05/55 plates that had a 296bhp engine but the same interior. Next was the 06 car with uprated front and rear lights, front bumper and some interior upgrades and had the GT4 296 bhp engine. The current car has a brand new engine, 313 bhp and has a bonnet bulge Quote

bronzee Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Welcome, it sounds like a 350 is in your future, as you haven't had one before. Quote
jamiesupra Posted April 25, 2008 Author Posted April 25, 2008 cheers everyone - thanks sarnie... thats what i was after..... Quote
xStric9x Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 Welcome to the site bud I've had a play with a standard tt supra and pulled over to speak to the chappie, he could'nt believe how much distance i had gained on him, so that may give you an indication of the power out of a standard z. Quote
GIXXERUK Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 a standard tt supra is 4.6 secs 0-60 i would have thought it would leave the zed in its dust ? Quote
Stew Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 That RX7 is nice! You'll have fun with a Zed modding it. May I point you in the direction of the FI section. Power Enterprise and APS do TT conversions! :teeth: Quote
xStric9x Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 a standard tt supra is 4.6 secs 0-60 i would have thought it would leave the zed in its dust ? I was actually behind him and by the time we got to a set of trafic lights i was a good distance in front of him, he asked what mods where on the z and couldn't believe it when i told him it was standard. Maybe he was just driving like a pansy. 0-60 time means nothing when you are doing 40 and then flooring it. Just took a look at the specs and he must have major problems with his car Quote
