Kazman's Solid Red Z... LOTS-A-PICS!

kazman · 12-16-2015, 07:00 PM

Heres the video and pic

US 370z versions have a fume evap tank in the back bumper right in the corner on passenger side behind the springs.
So the japanese version of 370z dont have a fume evap tank in the back... so when they made this exhaust, they didnt have to plan around the evap tank being there...

so initially it didnt fit. We had to move the evap tank, extend the hoses, and extend the harness wires... We placed it in the center and attached it to the heat shield.

Wow okay, I love your Z and might love your photography even more, any chance I could ask what your setup is? Camera, lens, and some of your preferred settings when shooting your Z?

Your pictures are just so damn sharp!

Thanks Joe!
I shoot with a Canon 7D. The lenses I mainly use are Canon 24-105, Tamron 70-200 and Sigma 10-20.

The get a good sharp in focus picture, bump up the f stop to about 2 clicks above what its lowest number is...

so the 70-200 has an f-stop of f2.8. when i shoot zoomed in, ill shoot at f4. it will give you some more clarity and not affect the blurryness too much.

My biggest advice, start using the MANUAL mode if you arent already. I forced you to learn the ins and outs of each function and how you can balance them out for what you need to accomplish (long shutter speed, extremely blurry background, very bright etc)

Feel free to hit me up in a pm if you need more help man. Id be glad to help go over some pointers

I also have a 7D, currently just have my 18-135 kit lens, and I get pretty sharp photos, but man most of your just look SO crisp. Do you shoot in RAW, or jpeg? And do you do much in post?

Wow and your shift knob looks awesome! How much would you charge to "burn" it like yours? Like if I paid for it and had it shipped directly to you?

Nice work on the knob and REALLY like it but you need some sort of finisher so it sits properly on the boot.

Your Z is truly a work of art man! It's crazy how good you can make stock wheels look lol!

Any plans for aftermarket wheels??

thanks man, i appreciate it!

I do have some plans, in fact I already have the wheels... just waiting to get some tires for them. They are going to be way different than what anyone has ever put on a 370, but I love the wheels. I did a test fit and it fit perfectly!

Ill prolly catch hate when I put them on... but thats ok. Heres a teaser pic
