Thank you the family is all health and well as I hope yours it too. ZDAYZ is going to be awesome as usual. My car looks a lot more like yours than ever before. Hoping to get a handful of track days in between now and then. 80 track days in three year is nothing more than AMAZING!!!!

Just wanted to stop by and say great build! Hotrodz mentioned you on the phone. I'm just really surprised how well the 370s can hold up with track use. I'm definitely planning on Zdayz next year. Are you going to Z Nationals this year?

Here's a quick video of Hotrodz and I during our April session back in AZ.

Thanks Carlitos, glad you enjoyed it! It's not really an even comparison since all I had were "mild" bolt ons (motordyne XYZ w/res paired with a Tomei for the rear section, SB Stage 2 w/a steel flywheel for heat, and a tune). I feel it showed that an NA car can keep up in the corners, while the FI car can go on the straights. Either way, it was great fun and I'm pretty happy that my own car did what it did. I'm actually going to try and sync my video with Hotrodz. It was disappointing that Bob was ahead on the straights by 4-5 car lengths. lol I hate you Hotrodz. :roflpuke2:

@DJTodd, didn't mean to sidetrack your thread!

Most likely one of the best options imo. If I weren't running a Tomei, I would be running a FI setup for sure (on the hunt for a 14 so I can boost it). Still couldn't believe that the rear OEM Nismo exhaust section alone was roughly 40 lbs. On the Tomei it was 17 lbs all together up to the y pipe. Yup, track days are fun especially when you have other Zs to drive with.

:iagree::iagree::iagree: do you have pics of your Nismo 350z? I love those Nismo's bro unfortunately they never arrive to Puerto Rico :(

Hey Josh,
What did you use for your 3in. front brake duct backing plate? Did you downsize it? I have the finite Nismo carbon brake ducts for my bumper and I am trying to figure out what to get for the backing plate.
