Forgot to Re-Introduce myself - Christchurch

Post by Luxo » Sat Jun 13, 2015 8:13 am

Hey guys after selling my Black 02' 350Z last year and experiencing withdrawal symptoms I've gone bought another! An '05 facelift model, Leather, Brembos etc. I'm keping the modifications pretty minimum on this one but so far has Fujitsubo exhaust, D2 coilovers and 18x10.5 squared TE37 reps. I'd like some resonated test pipes and another Motordyne Y pipe like my last.. But my other interest "travel" is pretty good at taking dibs of any expendable income haha.

Very nice Redline Luxo. They do say once you've had a Zed, it's in the blood. Blood red. :P

Note, I'm planning on dropping it a little more after certification.

It's undergone some changes over the last year. And more to come! Definitely want to focus on getting some track time. Now has full exhaust, Work wheels with more meat then the last el cheapo TE37 reps, new Voodoo13 toe and camber arms to square up my alignment. Have the new seat to go in for certification. Steering wheel (no airbag so it's illegal). Now I really just plan on a INGS style lip, G35 splash guards and I'll custom make some side splitters. Tempted even to custom make a rear bumper exit exhaust and remove the Fujitsubo muffler. Also tempted to cut the front guards to add the vented style, unsure of the legality though. After all of that my end goal is a Vortech V3 supercharger. They quote an easy 400-450whp at 8psi on factory internals, it'd give it a bit more kick that's for sure!
