Nissan's Crowd Sourced 370z :)
 

Nissan shows off crowdsourced 370Z

I'm sure a lot of you were apart of this build on FB, I sure was. Here is the end result!
They have a few vids on the post which are worth a watch.

Badass car!

i saw the project z at the unveiling at zdayz this year. i was pretty impressed with it overall but i didn't agree with some of the choices due to their vendor sources. sometimes, neither one would be what i would choose (cut off a hand or a foot, your choice?). still, it's cool to see the car done and letting the people choose how it is built. the paint and graphics came out nice and the seats were amazing :tup:

:confused:

Yea I'd love to get my hands on some seats like those! Probably my favorite mod on the car actually. I wish they would have thrown F.I. exhaust in there as one of the choices though...

Looks pretty badass.. I could do without the graphics or matte wrap though. I really want those seats.

Crowdsourced is a word I'd not heard before.

Not a fan for the looks department. Something with the rims on that nismo and being lowered just dont sit right with me... I also dont like the color or stickers on it lol... and the seats are a nice shade of sh*t brown lol.. Not my taste i guess...

I do like the turbo though!

Saw this at ZdayZ too. The things I'd do for a pair of seats like those... :yum:

Seats FTW!

I actually like the graphics. Keep in mind that the car was advertised and debuted at ZDayZ 2012. The graphics are a spin off of the Dragon Scales.

Overall I liked the car and for what it was, turned out really well. I am glad to see that Nissan thought to turn to the fans to build a theme car like this.

I do wish that they would have given us a broader range of choices when we were voting. And here's to hoping that they either raffle it off or do a charity auction with it.

:icon18: they look somewhat adjustable too, more :pics:

:yum: those seats deserve one more post.. any ideas how much $$$ ???


.

recaro sporsters CS retails for $1400 each or so Recaro Sportster CS Seat

U can probably buy them for under $1,100-1200.

i digs it

The car as a whole looked much better in person than it does in the pics I took/have seen from ZDayZ. The wheels were fantastic in person. Honeycomb "scales" were meh.

I thought this car was already raffled off somewhere!?

Any idea who they got to upholster the seats? I make it my summer goal next year to have those in my car. Recaro Sportsters are already super nice, but the suede and diamond center inserts just bring it to a whole new level. It was awesome in person and really soft. (yes I touched part of the seat :eekdance:)

I wish turbo is one of the option for our Z from Nissan!!:happydance:

Anyways here is some videos. Enjoy.

Thank you! Rep point

thanks, check out my seats

Nissan Crowdsourced Project 370Z
 

Hi People

Have you guys and gals seen this? And do you think it will ever become a factory edition?

:tiphat:

Damn you! :rofl2: :tup:

:facepalm:

Sorry, my bad. :shakes head: :wtf2:

Anyone think it will get to production?

no. it was never intended to be a production vehicle... ever

Just like the Juke-R...



:stirthepot:

that was different. that project was commissioned by nissan to build a Juke using as many GTR components as was needed then it was turned over to the media of the world. most people outside the nissan community have no idea what the "project Z" is.

It was at Zdayz, not a real nismo and not very impressive.

yea and it was just a collection of "off the shelf" parts from nissan partners. it's not like they did something completely custom like the Juke-R. also, there's nothing else quite like the Juke-R out there. no one else has ever shoe-horned in an R35 powertrain into anything and to do it that way was amazing. nor done it to such a production-ready level. the only thing that really interested me about the project Z was the seats. beyond that, i've seen other people do better on this forum with similar (or better) mods.

I read somewhere that the Juke-R will be available on a made to order basis.

not sure about that, i heard they were making 20 or so and that most of them had already been bought

It's true. It's not really a production car. More of a custom product from a hot rod shop.

This publicity stunt was intended to advertise the Z and it's potential at minimal cost. It's a way to guage interest. I've seen better on this forum, but it's still a pretty cool car.

Nissan Project 370Z was completed & the car was unveiled last May @ ZdayZ.....

Don't know why it took so long to release stage 3 Video which was already posted.

Below are some of the performance enhancements given as part of the Stage 1 build, IMO they could have done better with exhaust & suspension..

1. Greddy Twin Turbo kit
2. Greddy Ti-C catback exhaust
3. KW Variant 3 coil-over suspension
4. StopTech Big Brake kit

Actual place card with all mods for Project Z located @ Nissan HQ located in TN

In any case output was improved from 332 hp to 500 hp !!!!! :yum:

But unfortunately it appear that it will never go into production... :shakes head:

Would any of you trade in your current "Z" or buy this Z if it went into production?

^^^No. Most people prefer less power. That's why my next car will be a BR-Z/FR-S :stirthepot:
