Hello again,

Finally able to get my car up.
Bought a year ago 6MT 2009 Chicane yellow.

Over the next few months i did the following -

X-force cbe / HFC / Stillen G3 intakes (currently got rid of the X-force set up and removed resonators - ended up with seperate magnaflow race mufflers and straight thru exhaust from HFC.)

Custom made headers

Custom pressure plate/lightened flywheel/organic clutch/ strengthened CSC / custom steel braided clutch line replacing the rubber one.

2011 370z model 19inch rays running oem bridgestone / DBA 4000 rotors all round with custom steel braided brake lines.

Whiteline swaybars front and rear / lowered with Pedders Sports ryder coils.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

To date the car has not missed a beat except for previous CSC issue that seems to be very common. Handle very well and I do have better fuel economy driven with a light foot.
Last dyno done 225 rearwheel kilowatts approx 410nm torque (have to find vid and pic of results)

Following posts have pics and vids.

Thanks for viewing.

Following pics show CSC failure/ blew fluid all over the place. The temp difference between all metals and fluid led to warping and tiny fractures. The the organic clutch would crumble to the touch having been exposed to the fluid. - I have all replaced now....expensive.

Video clip shows what my new clutch etc sounds like. Absolutely quiet. The only noise you hear from the gearbox area is a whirring noise - me pressing and de-pressing clutch during idle. As we all know stock cars have a terrible can/marbles sound which i always found annoying - now it's bliss.
