parello9 Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 liking the rear set up.. be good to get those wheels on Quote
3sjr Posted March 31, 2014 Author Posted March 31, 2014 Cheers buddy, I was actually looking up the prices on 7 series wheels because of your photos lol Quote
GMballistic Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 Looking good 3sjr. Just wondered what tyre width are you running on the rears then? Quote
3sjr Posted May 2, 2014 Author Posted May 2, 2014 So since having the Z I have spent a fair bit of time and money getting it to where I want it aesthetically. until I had an accident with a roundabout thinking I can drift... I was gutted as its an original genuine Nismo front end. So the bumper went off to the best sprayer I know and the Z sat out front looking sorry for itself. . 1 Quote
3sjr Posted May 2, 2014 Author Posted May 2, 2014 But this is where the major update comes Everyone knows while the front bumper is off you may as well go ahead and buy a twin turbo.... A Greddy twin turbo kit came up literally 5 mins drive from me so I had to have it really. The kit is brand new but may be missing a few bits and pieces, I intend to fit the kit myself so wish me luck, the install won't start for about a month however as I'm in exam period in uni. Also forging the engine may be a route I might go down, but we will have to see. I know I need to adjust the steering rack for this kit to fit also so if anyone has fitted or has info on this please could you message me. Quote
-Bradders- Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Awesome! i was watching that on ebay! it was posted on here a couple days back too! Look forward to seeing it done!! Quote

GMballistic Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Is that the one from eBay 3sjr? I was watching that you sob. Only joking wasn't going to bid but was interested to see how much it would go for. Good luck fitting it all. Quote
Almeida1234 Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 You need to get them wheels fitted ASAP dude. Twin turbo will be epic. Quote

Tomb Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Looks awesome bud! I was watching that TT kit but was to far away for me Also If your getting rid of those old wheels be sure to let me know! Tom. Quote
3sjr Posted May 3, 2014 Author Posted May 3, 2014 I actually originally wanted to supercharge, but when this came up literally round the corner, and on student loan day. What the hell else was I meant to do... lol This is the one on ebay haa apparently he got 5 offers the day I picked it up. Almedia the wheels have been fitted today (well one side) thinking of taking it to japfest like this because I cant make up my mind. Thanks Vlad and SJ Tom you might be in luck, I will let you know. THE CAR WILL BE FOR SALE FOR ONE DAY ONLY AT JAPFEST, if it doesn't go its going in the garage for the twin turbo. Quote

3sjr Posted May 7, 2014 Author Posted May 7, 2014 here is the for sale advert mate http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/85113-genuine-04-nismo-modified-azure-show-winner/ Really don't want to sell it haha, thanks for the kind words guys Quote
3sjr Posted May 27, 2014 Author Posted May 27, 2014 So a big change of heart meant that the Z has stayed with me but the twin turbo had to go to free up funds. Haven't had a lot going on lately but the Z went up on the ramp for a change in decats, went from Japspeed to Megan racing resonated ones. Then I absolutely hated the gold callipers, why gold ? So they went black to tie in with the rest of the car. Then while the spray cans were out the front of the engine went black and also the little trims under the windows were showing wear signs so they got sprayed also. here are some pics on whats been happening. Quote
wizurd Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) good work Sam also happy to see you're keeping the zed How come the change of heart? I don't really get the gold calipers, bet they'll look nice in black with the wheels on. Good work on the engine bay as well, see this done on a few zeds now and it makes a big difference i think. Will need some dry weather so i can attempt the same. Hows the front bumper now? O and how do you find the different decats? Edited May 27, 2014 by wizurd Quote
