I've always been a Nissan Z fan since i was a kid, starting from my father 240, z31, and a z32, to my aunt's 280z, my other aunt owing a z31, . So in December of 2014 i purchased my 370z, with no plan to modify it beyond an exhaust, intake and tune because of the fact I didn't have the slightest clue how to work on cars.

Stock Hp 278-282 whp ( going by other folks have posted)

Current 334 whp Uprev tuned

Mod list:
1. Stillen G III intakes
2. F.I. CBE 12inch resonators
3. F.I. test pipes ( Only kept for 3 months)
4. F.I. Long tubes
5. F.I. oil cooler
6. C.J.M. RRP
7. C.J.M. Billet Top Hat

Making 700+ Whp




Currently saving for a semi build, should be an interesting 2017 for the stock block. Currently I've done 99.9% of the work with some help from friends when i couldn't figure something out. ATI damper was install by a shop. Will update with pictures

After the install. Much better look for thr car

Ordered a new bumper because I couldn't stand the ducts in the front of the car anymore. After skipping on the idea of boost (too poor to make the kind of power i would want) I order me a set of FI long tube headers and an oil cooler.
