Up to date mod list:

Interior
team Voodoo pearl shift knob
cf steering wheel
cf window switch plates

Exterior
stillen lip
TSW nurburgrings
blacked out fangs
fairlady badge

Engine
Injen intakes
CNT cat back
Test pipes (unres)
Dyno Tuned
(326whp, 268tq)

Suspension
Swift springs
Ichiba 15mm rear spacers (type II)

gettin quite a few mod threads stackin up so i figured it was about time to start one of these...

So i bought the z about 4 months ago after some heavy debating between that, a cayman s, and a 335i bmw. I absolutely love the look of the z and wouldnt trade it for anything after owning one. Well enough with the chit chat. when i bought it, it had tsw nurburgrings, Injen intakes, and test pipes.

this is the week i bought it:

the overall rasp really bothered me so i purchased a CNT catback about a month and a half later . The quality of such an inexpensive system was AMAZING imo and has so far been my best bang for the buck purchase.

then i decided the stance needed a little work so i dropped it on some swifts.

the drop was good but spacers were definately needed. so i picked up some ichiba 15mm type II's for the rear. and this was the result

also, at about the same time that i bought spacers i spotted a stillen front lip that i REALLY liked, so i decided that had to go on as well... small, clean, nothing too flashy.

so this is where i currently sit.... not completely finished, but definately starting to take shape the way i want it to.

Sorry for the crappy cellphone pics!

Still more to come. any ideas you guys have or any thoughts on the direction this car should go just let me know!

Definately not finished, but i really like the start of this project.

nice! What site are you using to upload the pictures from your phone? Everytime i upload mine to photobucket it makes my images small..

edub370 · 09-13-2011, 09:03 AM

I just dump them from my phone to my pc, then upload them to an album i created on this site

edub370 · 09-29-2011, 08:42 AM

heres a few pics i snapped for the calender submission..

... starting to think i want some evo r side blades to go with this stillen lip....

opinions?

Astrosfan · 09-29-2011, 10:14 AM

I think some black side blades and blacking out your fangs and valence would look really good. Nice, clean, simple....

Red__Zed · 09-29-2011, 05:06 PM

Looking good

Dallaz · 09-29-2011, 05:21 PM

Looks really good. Those spacers were definitely needed, sits perfect! Third from the bottom is the best shot BY FAR. If that don't make the calendar imma be pissed! Lol

definitionxmk · 09-29-2011, 06:04 PM

Some awesome locations

edub370 · 09-29-2011, 11:01 PM

thanks guys. took all those when i was bored this past sunday. kc really has some beautiful areas to take pics.

wonder if the blacked out evo r rear diffuser would go nicely with that stillen front lip

edub370 · 12-23-2011, 06:00 PM

got a team voodoo pearl shift knob with a z toys shift boot collar

eastwest2300 · 12-26-2011, 12:55 AM

Nice ride, and the exhaust is sexy..

edub370 · 12-26-2011, 11:30 PM

just threw on a fairlady z badge. christmas present courtesy of the the girfriend!

its the little things like this that i like. makes i different, but still subtle

edub370 · 04-18-2012, 03:29 PM

just got the z dyno tuned by chad at mkc.

and... i didnt get a baseline (dummy me)

. BUT ended the day with 293whp and 243tq.. while i was there he was doing the last couple runs. picked up about 3whp in the last 2 pulls.

Now, i wasn't chasing a whp increase as much as i was wanting to pick up some response and a little low end torque. both of which were addressed. and may i say, that taking out that STUPID electronic throttle delay was the best thing EVER!

wish i woulda thrown some 93 oct instead of 91 so i coulda had a better chance of breaking 300whp.

however, even without the baseline, this does give me a good starting point for future mods

MacLean · 04-18-2012, 03:51 PM

edub370, your car looks really nice & I definitely like what you have done with it. Nothing is overkill, but just right big guy.

LakeShow · 04-18-2012, 04:21 PM

Very nice subtle mods edub. It's nice it came with a little goodies from the start.
