neoflare Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Hey guys, apologies as i'm sure this has been covered a million times over on here. But I haven't stopped reading this forum the past few days and can't quite make heads nor tails of what im reading. Basically, I am looking at possible upgrades to do to the car. It is a 2007 GT Roadster 300. I keep seeing info on parts that would fit some zeds, but not sure whats what...? keep seeing abbreviations for like engine codes and not sure what one my car would fall under? Keep trying to look at mods such as intakes, and exhausts. Even finding a spoiler seems difficult as I keep reading about fitting problems? So can anyone help me out here? Thanks Neo Quote
hensh65 Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 De is 280 bhp 03-55. 06 and some 07s get the uprev engine which you have. 07-with the bonnet bulge is HR with 309 bhp. Intakes and exhausts will be the same for de and uprev. Other than the front bumper and hr bonnet every other panel is the same. Spoiler on 03 fits 08 1 Quote
Mudman Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Keep reading the forums mate. It will all become clear. Try the guides first Quote
marzman Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Your car sounds like an HR. The DE is the 2003-2005 model year. JWT is a make of an intake, which is often thrown around. Quote
KyleR Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 De is 280 bhp 03-55. 06 and some 07s get the uprev engine which you have. 07-with the bonnet bulge is HR with 309 bhp.

Spoiler on 03 fits 08 Ahem, Revup* OP - You say you have an 07 300, does that mean you KNOW you have a 300 (Revup) or is that what you were told by a dealer? You should have only one intake under the bonnet and 2 vertical lines on the bonnet. Exhausts for all 350Zs are the same no matter what year, roadster, coupe, whatever, all the same. Cats will be different between DE engines (2003-2006) and the HR (2007-2009 with bulge bonnet and 2 intakes) The spoiler for the roadster is a tricky one. Because the roadster is quite rare compared to the coupe and the boot is a slightly different shape, there will be much more work required to make a spoiler fit your motor. 1 Quote

neoflare Posted June 12, 2014 Author Posted June 12, 2014 the car was advertised as a GT 300 and it has one intake and the 2 lines down the middle of the bonnet...so thats def 309bhp then? I see there is a DE and HR? Just to be clear mine would be HR? :wacko: Quote
14N Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Wit ha single intake and the 2 lines down the bonnet, yours is definitely a DE engine and not a HR. A HR will have 2 intakes and a bulge bonnet. 1 Quote
KyleR Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 What 14N said - yours is a DE engined Revup (296BHP/300PS), providing it has LED rear lights and upgraded interior. The upgraded interior will have the hazard switch in front of the gearstick. 1 Quote
neoflare Posted June 13, 2014 Author Posted June 13, 2014 Right I get ya now haha I think the heat was just getting to me as I was pretty much on this all day reading about different mods available etc and I think my head just went pop Quote
KyleR Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 haha With there being 3 different model years which cross over each other and one of which only lasting 12 months, it can be a bit confusing at first, but once you understand the subtle, but pretty obvious differences, it's very easy Quote
