Who Makes This Kit?
 
I'm just know seeing this kit. Hope it's not a repost? Anyone know anything about it?

It's the Tamon Design 370Z (http://blog.cardomain.com/2010/02/08...on-design-370z).

Looked great in the picture that Spohn posted, but didn't do it for me in the 2 in the blog.

To be fair, I like the fenders. A lot.

It looks great again there too!

I think the kit is ugly as sin, but I'd be interested to see the exhaust... And hear it.

Good question. I still want to see the new blue color on the Z itself.

alcheng 03-16-2012 11:58 PM
mmm.... not a fan on the exhaust, why do they have to copy the idea from Lexus?? :ugh2:

Are these pics new? Because I remember seeing the kit a few years ago? :icon08:


And that IS a good question, why have we seen no pics of this new color? They must know we're gonna go crazy for it. :icon17:

Because Lexus copied Ferrari, Lambourghini?

It's what happens... :ugh2:

The link posted by waaaasabi direct to a page dated 8 Feb 2010, so the kit is about 2 yrs old, even the kit from the link is slightly different to the kit in the picture in this thread.

Regarding the color, if they can custom made a kit, and even take out the Nissan logo, why couldn't they paint the car in their custom color?? :icon17:

mmm.... true, what I think is if they have to copy the design from another design which is already a copy from another design.... I rather they don't put in any "design"..... :ugh2:

I understand, but everything now-a-days is a copy of someone elses idea. There are very few things left that could geniuinely be called 'original'. Kinda sad... :ugh2:

I just think it's nice to see the Z with something 'non-standard' instead of designed.

I like the kit too, even the back end looks nice, only turn off by the tri-exhaust... :ugh2:

Interesting though, the kit is from 2010, but don't really see it in North America, maybe they don't release it outside Japan... :ugh2:

No, there's a thread about it somewhere on here. It wasn't welcomed by the public too well :rofl2:


I think the kit has a lot of flaws, and suffers from the same effect the Amuse kit has on the Z making it look 2ft longer which makes it completely unappealing from the side profile. (imo)

..and listed at $27k for the kit probably didn't help :rolleyes:

It's a 27k kit before paint... but it is sexy as hell!

MUST got it before me... hah

370ztune / Bulletproof Automotive can get it... they dont carry it for obvious reasons.

alcheng 03-17-2012 12:47 AM

:rofl2: Exactly, that's like paying $300 for a doggy back of dog crap.

Not too bad, but the longer looking at the front, the less keen on the front grill....

...extremely low production, plus they dont truly want to sell it but the are selling it incase someone decides to drop the coin...is what i understand.

Kit is really nice but very, very expensive!

That's about 60+% of the price for a new Z.

$27k can make s huge step up on a Z performance wise AND style wise. :icon17:
