For sure :tup:

Gives nice deep sound and really fills the cab of the 370z.

Although the 2 x 10's would look cool LOL, the 12" is so much better,
and requires less power to run than 2 x 10's as well ;)

Honestly this is such a small car, and unlike most trunk installs, this is not blocked by the trunk/rear seats.

The sub box is right behind your head, so you really don't need to go crazy on a 370z install.

Glad it worked out.

I am thinking about pulling the trigger on a stereo myself. I currently have 2 JL 10W6s, so it may make sense to stick with the pair I already have.

car looks mean w/the black wheels man. for some reason, the last pic makes the front of the car look a bit high, any plans for the suspension or are you gonna keep the nismo stuff on the car?

PS--when are the Eddie graphics coming? :excited:

Yeah I agree it does look a little high, although I do have the Tein S-Tech springs, just need to get them put on.

I used to have some Maiden decals on my Dodge Charger LOL.
I've thought about doing something crazy with my car, I'm just undecided.

Although if I had the funds I would repaint the car lime green ;)

370Zsteve 10-01-2010 08:56 PM

You still got the spacers in the springs on that bad boy? He's right, it looks high in that pic :roflpuke2:lol Matt had his in for weeks before he realized it

TROOPER 10-01-2010 08:59 PM

HaHa, No I've checked it like 4 times for the spacers as I'm so paranoid LOL.

I just had Kirkster help me put the H&R spacers on, so we had the wheels off and the brakes.. no spring spacers in there for sure.

Yeah, the Nismo's just sit like that, I think it's the fact that your wheels are black too that's making the gap look bigger than normal.

Your old car is why I was wondering about the graphics, some ghosted Maiden graphics on the side of the Z would be tits.


Edit: oooh, just thought of this, I think Eddie ala "somewhere in time" would be the **** on that car! :)

TROOPER 10-01-2010 09:15 PM

I kinda like the "Fear Of The Dark" album cover... Eddie in the tree, kind of dark blue and black... would blend into a black car very well ;)

FL 4Motion 10-01-2010 09:17 PM

I approve of this. /\ :)

Love your car man! Looks clean

ScGRaceR 11-14-2010 11:37 AM

looks great!

kevin8086 12-29-2010 06:45 PM

how much negative camber are you running in the front? i want to go with those wheels but it looks like the front sticks out past the fender. i dont want to run huge negative camber to keep from rubbing since i am lowered on H&R springs. are you running a 10mm spacer on the front?

kevin8086 12-29-2010 06:47 PM

dont get me wrong. i think your car looks awesome but it seems like it's not aggressive enough in the rear and to aggressive in the front. i know it's because of the sport brakes, i have them as well. i think i may just try to run the 5mm spacers and hope it clears.

Jose Aliling 12-30-2010 08:41 AM

are you running on stock springs?

Hey guys,

Still running stock springs, and stock camber.

I have Tein S-Tech springs but I have not installed them yet.
Think I'll wait until the weather improves LOL

BennytheBlade 12-30-2010 09:15 AM

It looks "right" except as pointed out, the front looks like its peeking out and the rear looks a little sunken. Might be the light or just the pics.

Overall looks very clean.

OH Lord!!! no flirting here, just exchange of great ideas from awesome nismo owner to another awesome nismo owner :). It's a nismo thing, you are just jealous because you don't have them rims and brakes :bowrofl: :bowrofl:

Zerafian 03-24-2011 03:39 PM

Car looks great, what offsets did you get on your varrastoens?

edit: nvm got the answer on page 4

ZCarMan 03-24-2011 07:40 PM

Turned out very nice indeed! Congrats!:tiphat:

Front: 19x9.5 +22 offset & 5mm Spacer
Rear: 19x10.5 +12 offset

But honestly 5mm spacers is a really tight fit with the sports brakes,
you can hardly get your finger nail (or credit card) between the caliper and spokes.

I ended up swapping them for H&R 10mm spacers.

Those door handles look really good!
