Hello Everyone! Late Welcome Message :)

Hello everyone,

 

I’ve been driving my 350Z for quite a while now, but I’ve just realised I never actually introduced myself here in the introduction section!

You can actually find my car thread over in the Wanted section — I bought the car thanks to this very forum.

 

 

It’s a 2006 RevUp model, and when I bought it, it had around 73,000 miles on the clock. Two years later, it’s now sitting at roughly 79,000 miles.

I wanted to share a bit about what’s been done to the car — both what it already had when I bought it and the modifications I’ve added since.

 

When I bought it, the car already had:

• Japan Racing JR5 Wheels

• ISR Catback Single Exit Exhaust

• ARC Air Intake System

• Nismo Style Front Lip

 

After driving it in this setup for quite some time, I decided to start making the updates I’d always dreamed of. There’s a long list in my head, but I’ll just share what I’ve done so far.

It’s a bit of a story, so here goes…

 

When I first got the car, it already had a Nismo-style front lip. Personally, I didn’t love the look with just the front lip — it felt incomplete. So the first thing I did was order a set of side skirts from Tarmac Sportz and had them fitted. In my opinion, the car’s stance completely changed — it looked so much more balanced. Without the skirts, it really did look too plain.

Of course, with the new side skirts and front lip, the rear end started to look a bit empty. I’ve always loved the 380RS body kit, so after a lot of searching, I ordered a Nismo V3-style spoiler, again from Tarmac Sportz. Once fitted, it looked great — but it made me realise the rear spats needed updating too.

 

So I went back to Tarmac Sportz and ordered a set of Nismo N1-style rear spats, which really tied everything together in terms of the body kit. For now, that was the exterior just how I wanted it.

 

 

 

 

After another good stretch of driving, I started to feel that the car’s sound wasn’t quite doing it for me anymore. It still had the stock catalytic converters, so it was time for a decat. After some research, I decided to go for Berk Technology decats, which I thought would pair nicely with my ISR Single Exit exhaust. Once fitted — that raspy, aggressive tone was exactly what I’d been looking for.

 

I’ve never been a fan of the DE bonnet design, so I thought I’d upgrade to an HR bonnet. One thing led to another, and during the Black Friday sales I found myself ordering a Seibon carbon HR-style bonnet — couldn’t resist the deal!

 

 

 

 

 

That’s everything I’ve done so far, but I’ve got a long list of future plans. Next up, I’m looking at getting carbon front fenders, because I just can’t resist a bit of carbon.

 

Once again, hi to everyone — I’ve attended a few meets already, and I’m looking forward to many more!
