Looks like a lot of work ahead for my mechanic :tup:

Updated the list in previous post, in contact to buy the few parts remained.

I participated in track day yesterday, Friday November 24th, but didn't take the Z there, as I didn't see a point in heat cycling the tires without having the time to return stock rotors and bleeding the brakes.

But, I drove my friend cars and tested my new cam (Sony X3000), First was VW Golf Clubsport 5 doors hatch, with APR stage 2 (mid torque), and nitto nt01 (worn out ones :D), the other one was a typical Subaru BRZ, which are in every corner of the track, this particular car has full exhaust, coilovers, strut bars, swaybars, front AP racing BBK, rpf01 wrapped in R888R, and stock tune but with auto blip.

So to start, my fastest lap in the 370z was 2:27 with RE71R. I did it in 2:28 in Clubsport (second in video) and 2:30 in BRZ (last, but did a faster one but forgot to start the cam). I can write my impressions but this is my car thread :p

They are here :yum:

Ordered most items and more than what I wanted :bowrofl: also changed some parts, now waiting them to arrive and then will post all parts.

Yeaaah! :rock:

No real updates :icon17:

Very lazy to change the setup and try as there will be big changes to the drivetrain, instead just using it as is.

I had a trackday last Thursday, this time no free rides, instead my car got a free ride, a friend who got a great experience (recently joined 12 hours race at Spa and got first with his team) Also, he had a 370z before, he was a member here.

First me driving and messing with a Lambo, :ughdance: had two incidents but the second were worse, a moment separating our crash @4:50 (I thought he will stop and go right but suddenly went left after his initial move)



Here just my usual stuff.



Finally my friend driving, he complained about the shifter afterward, luckily SRM to the rescue :tup:

Damn that was some wild stuff in the first vid chasing the Aventador. Where is the track marshalls???? You guys were going way to fast with a spun car on the track. I'm sure somebody would have been black flagged or banned at any of the tracks near me.

None the less, very nice save.

Wow that was a hair raising moment, thank god there wasn't any contact. Nice stuff!

Yeah, I am thankful we have avoided it. You are right MaysEffect, the marshall should have raised the yellow flag, I assume there was time for the marshall to act and show the flag before we reach the turn, and to make it worse, I had a friend driving a BRZ at my back :shakes head:.

Awesome videos bro! :tup:

Nice driving, good lines. Great safe.

Thank you bros :tup:


Until I get all the parts I ordered and do the work, I cannot say I am totally satisfied with the car performance right now, yes the car feel is good, but the brakes aren't that consistent, it has improved from the time attack event after I re-bleeded them, got Castrol SRF now, I will change the pads to nearly new Carbotech XP10/8 (I will get them from a friend) with new rotor disks to see if my current pads and disks are the issue (before considering going BBK route). Also, the suspension needs some tweaks to get it where I like with the new tires.

and there was a change of the parts I listed before,

Changed the clutch to OS Giken HTR2CD (new model but should work with zspeed solutions), as the single GT isn't compatible with any CSC solution available, and OS themselves recommended the one I went for after explaining all my needs.

Got a rear 10mm spacer with ARP extended studs for all wheels, and Z1 subframe collars.

Also purchased Superpro bushings.

but looks like the parts will be delayed a little :eekdance: something I am used to, but don't like. (Currently received the wheels, radiator, oem fuel pump, cjm top hat, and thermostats).

Got some sweeties












Still waiting for Z1 shipment.

These arrived yesterday. Still waiting my order with Z1, took a lot of time :shakes head:
