Password:JDM wants your feedback! What parts would you like to see us make?
 
First of all, just wanted to say Password:JDM is now a proud sponsor of the370z.com!

We have just purchased a new 2011 370Z Nismo for our shop. We plan on offering the 370Z community a full line of Dry Caron Fiber / Carbon Kevlar parts for the 370z, along with an exhaust system, suspension components and more!

We would like to get everyones feedback and opinions on what you would like to see us get to work on first?

So lets hear it from you guys, the owners.
Once we get a good idea of what the 370Z community really wants, we will start some R&D and get some great products in everyones hands :tup:

A little information about Password:JDM
Password:JDM is recognized as an industry leader in the niche market known as JDM! To date, we have imported more JDM products by volume than the next 3 companies combined.
We started life as a direct importer of new and used JDM products and have now become a full manufacturer of performance automotive aftermarket products as well. 90% of PWJDM products are produced inhouse here at our headquarters and manufacturing facility in Pico Rivera, CA.

As a DIRECT IMPORTER of new and used JDM Honda and Nissan parts, engine/motor swaps, and quite possibly anything else born and bred JDM, our products remain "true to form" and reliable. To add onto your vehicle what the factory left out, we also choose to develop, concept, and manufacture all of our products in-house within our 10,000sq. ft. Pico Rivera, CA warehouse. Made in the USA.

Please feel free to stop by and visit

I will get some new photos just for YOU today!

JakeZ34 11-09-2011 11:25 AM

sub'd and I'd like to see more variations of the shift knobs that you guys make, I like the style and I personally have one but I like the feel of the round knobs better. Suspension parts would be nice too as long as they don't cost an arm and a leg. Maybe end-links for sway bars, I know Whiteline makes the back set but not for the front. I've always liked the dry-carbon/kevlar covers that you guys made for the engine bay so keep up the good work!

SPOHN 11-09-2011 11:25 AM

First and foremost, please don't be like some of the other vendors that have come on here claiming there going to do things for us and then it doesn't happen. On any level at that. Then they need so many people before that even start production and even then it never makes it. I believe most just come here to sponsor for its a write off for them anyways.

But in all seriousness I'm looking for a great rear diffuser for our cars. I can send you pics of one I like the most. I'm looking to purchase a lip kit in CF first of the year. So if you could come up with something there it would be nice. I'd like to see some nice side skirts made. More of a squared look like Varis offers.

cool.

yah, per above, CF rear diffuser would be cool... ones that actually extends behind the rear tires. we already have ones that just cover the center portion (like fujimura and fujimura copycat aka EvoR). not interested in those.

SPOHN 11-09-2011 11:38 AM

^ defiantly

Thanks, glad you like them! Are you interested in a ball style knob, or just something with a rounded profile on the top?

If you're making suspension parts, how about some better front camber arms.

phelan 11-09-2011 12:14 PM

How about a heavier version of the PW:JDM shift knob you already have on offer?

somatic 11-09-2011 12:17 PM

a shift knob that works on autos :(

We can make them in brass. That would make them quite a bit heaver.

SPOHN 11-09-2011 12:30 PM

I'll post some later tonight when I get off work.

Two words.... brake ducts.

Im tired of having to fabricate something that looks hillbilly for a sophisticated car like the Z. Please take this into consideration.

Thank you kindly,
~ The Z Community

UNKNOWN_370 11-09-2011 12:35 PM

We are missing small attention to detail mods that pretty much don't exist.

How about a rear wing that is not ONLY beautiful to look at like the NISMO wing is, but it aso very functional at speeds over 140mph??? :)

We need brake cooling solutions.

How bout GTR style NACA ducts but ones that fit our hoods better. The actual gtr ducts are awkward and buying a new hood is risky... (fitment issues.) A nice fitting NACA duct would be great for engine cooling.


For automatic owners. The shift area isn't the most attractive. How about a shift boot that doesn't look overdone for the auto. Nissan should have made the shift area closer to the G37.

More solutions to modify our OEM steering wheel. I don't want an aftermarket cuz our hubs are hot but, I wish our wheels were thicker. Maybe a flatbottom version of the stock steering wheel



Design a power module for a manual folding mirrors so it won't be so hard for us to get them? I don't really care about it but I keep reading many people wanting them.

Twaireg 11-09-2011 12:38 PM

Any Engine cover to suit the cooling plate and engine compartment covers?
Also, hood dampers, cf floormats would be cool.

Make sure to provide parts for both, the nismo and the normal Z cars

Hope all goes well!

are you a faux maker as well? let's see original designs (rear diffuser) BY YOU. :pics:

JakeZ34 11-09-2011 12:53 PM

^ I agree with everything that everyone has posted.

Brake Duct
Functional Rear Diffuser besides the one that Evo-R offers (which I don't think it's functional at all)
As far as the shift knob, I'd like the OEM Profile one with a round top rather then just a ball type knob. I really like the Tommy Kiara Hebbi Bebi? But I'm not gonna pay close to $300 for a knob lol...And please make it heavy like Phelan said, I want something that feels solid.

sapsec 11-09-2011 01:10 PM

I be interested in some of the following as long as they don't look "ricer":

CF Auto shift knob
CF center console
CF door inserts
CF shift plate/surround
CF rear diffuser

Alcantara steering wheel
Alcantara shift knob
Alcantara/CF door inserts
Alcantara knee pads
Alcantara shift boot
Alcantara console lid

Not at all. Our parts are 100% designed and manufactured in house, in the USA. We are just trying to get a feel for what the community is looking for. Now, do you have anything to add to this thread, or just here to make noise? :rolleyes:

Brake Ducts seem to be something a lot of people want. We should be able to come up with something nice for the Z.

This is the brake ducts we have made for the Nissan GT-R

All is good!! :happydance:

ND370z 11-09-2011 01:53 PM

interested in exhaust options!

PasswordJDM 11-09-2011 01:55 PM

Here is a rear diffuser we have made for the S2000 in the past

http://passwordjdm.com/images/Products/2422_4.jpg

kenchan 11-09-2011 01:58 PM

that rear diffuser appears functional looks good! :tup:

also something like this (more of a comsetic thing) but not with the loopy folded rubbermat looking thing on the sides. i want just a flat piece there on both sides behind the rear tires. im looking or something that would be fluid with Ings+ side CF pieces.

http://www.the370z.com/members/solis...icture-092.jpg

who ever's picture this is, thanks for letting us use it...

kenchan 11-09-2011 02:01 PM

here's the ings+ side piece im referring to. for some reason ings does not offer a rear piece so their car/styling looks unfinished...

http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/ntnsracing_2183_335033260

ND370z 11-09-2011 02:01 PM

looks hard to make seeing that everyone has different exhaust options.

yes, for the full functional one that is true..but the cosmetic one i dont think not too hard as it wont go deep under the car to the mid pipe area. probably wont work on low hanging cans (FI) but for most exhausts should work?

This is exactly what want. Then the brake duct also. But I would need my brake ducts to be right up on the center of the rotor

Exactly. My rear pipes are low on my Greddy.

kenchan 11-09-2011 02:06 PM

yah, i too would be intersted in the front CF brake ducts. maybe start with this first? :D

Alchemy 11-09-2011 02:09 PM

Im pretty much on the same page as these guys. Brake ducts would be great as would a rear diffuser. Shift knobs are always good as well. Somebody on pg1 suggested better fitting naca ducts, I like this too as I have actually been looking for some:tup:

i was thinking that also.Even with FI, HKS and ARK they have almost all the similar design. The s2000 looks like the greedy exhaust and that can work.

SPOHN 11-09-2011 02:14 PM

I want a good brake duct design. But cost has to be a factor. Nothing CF. just not going to pay let's say $600 for them.

Apoc370z 11-09-2011 02:25 PM

I didnt know you guys are so close to where i live, only. 20 min drive..

Others already mentioned the stuff i have in mind, but will you guys do custom work? I want a lip for the bumper i am gonna put on
