The Nismo intake we test fit is the 07+ HR intake. Not a direct fit but pretty close, the heat shields had to be left off to make it work. Just something we're testing for now to see how it does on the dyno. We will putting a true 370Z specific intake kit into production soon.

The suspension is different from the 350Z and 350 springs / coilover are a no go. What is on the car now is a test set up strictly for the photos and to get some feedback as to how low we can go. Strictly R&D at this point and the car likely not be that low with the final design springs.

And lastly....Pearl White is dope!

That's all for now.

if those rims were a differnt color besides chrome it would look sick

dlmartin81 01-21-2009 06:17 PM

very nice! you could use a little wider tires imo.

could you post a pic of the front and rear views so we could see how wide the tires look from those angles?

thanks.

What are those flaps for? I've seen them on other cars as well but never understood what they were for. IMO, they look stupid but I'm sure the manufacturer put them on there for a reason. How import is that reason, I don't know.

+1 On sweet car.
Dunno about rims :ugh2:

RCZ 01-22-2009 08:46 PM

sweet you fixed the ride height on the front. Looks great now. Not my favorite wheels but it looks good. Nice drop.

gawd....dyammm

Looks like a 285/30/20 on the rear.

That revised stance is just right! You try any spacers yet?

Really too bad that it needs 20's to look right. Very few max performance summer tire choices in a 20" size. Maybe that'll change?

I think 19 inch look fine.

John@Z1 01-23-2009 08:28 PM

We installed 5mm spacers on those
 
You could run a 12" wheel with no issues at all. The rear has 285/30/20 on it and they look narrow. These cars are just right for a crazy offset.

Very nice car mate! The white looks phat! I was leaning towards the black but have been seeing a few white ones on the net that looks sweet as. Personally I think a 370 needs 20's to fill the guards properly. I would only fit Volks in a mat colour like grey or silver, not chrome. The new TE-37's look good.

Testpipes
 
This morning was dyno session for the 370Z again and we gained 8rwhp. This brought the power up to 287 to the wheels. I will be getting the dyno graph later. This was also performed with the stock airbox.
