The ISR Single Exit exhaust was installed a while ago but i never took pictures because there was a lot to do in 1 day with limited time.

Its the ISR Single Exit + ISR Y-Pipe. I really love the sound, it gurgles and pops a lot and it has a deep rumble and no rasp whatsoever. Plus its loud which is nice.

Thanks to ISR for the opportunity to rep their brand on my car and the sponsorship opportunity

May have finalized a few more sponsors to add to the list, and more stickers to the car.

Fingers crossed it all works out

Went to Autoclub Speedway - Roval this weekend! Broke the Z's virginity of track days. Going to become a sloppy girl for even more of them

Had a blast, set a good time according to the Nissan challenge guys there for what i have on the Z.

2.02.xxx on an open diff and basic suspension mods.. the open diff was killing me on the bankments and corner exit.

I feel i could have gotten a 2 flat or sub 2 if i didnt hit traffic literally every lap, but thats what happens when you go a lower class for the sake of learning the car.

Here are some cool photos from the event, Next up.. Buttonwillow

I’m digging the updates Kimosabe

StevenSlice · 02-19-2018, 06:34 PM

I missed this post before the track day because i was pressed for time. So ill switch it up a wee bit.

The after install look with a Driven GT FIA Bucket Seat(I.E. a re branded MOMO seat) + Sparco Seat Rail setup w/ slider. Courtesy of Corner 3 Motorsports for helping me choose a good seat that fit me well.

Along with G-Force 6 point harness to keep me strapped in place for all my late braking heavy footed goodness. This was definitely a life saver at ACS.

Im too lazy to take pictures but yes, there are eyebolts for the harnesses with metal plates under the car for the proper install. I also have the Ghetto-Auto harness bar for a "Safe" mount for them. Rollbar eventually but i wanted my harness setup.

Great job at the track and yes you should be very happy your time. The Nissan Challenge gang are welcoming group of individuals. John is awesome! I participated in the fun back in August and had great time. I even got a third place plaque. I spent most of my sessions getting instruction from Steve Daughtry...it was definitely worth it! Look forward to your updates. I was at Chuckwalla Valley this past weekend and it was awesome!

Nice maybe ill see you out at a nissan challenge event! Chuckwalla is 7 hours from me but i may try to attend one.

I also finished third of 8 people. Freaking Malko (Eagle) stomped everybody by a few seconds.

Eagle is very fast and good people too!

StevenSlice · 02-21-2018, 03:20 PM

The Z earned itself an award out of 8 people last weekend. Not to shabby if i do say so myself, especially for no experience in the car.

Eagle · 02-21-2018, 07:00 PM

Great showing your first time out in the 370z!

Bob thank you for the compliment! So we'll be seeing you at Chuckwalla then?

I would love to run there but I will be at Auto Club for the NASCAR race. My bro is part of the safety crew and we camp out in the infield and partake in all the festivities. I have to get my car to Specialty Z and hopefully he can fix my boost issue by my next NASA event. I am planning on run at Las Vegas in April.

StevenSlice · 02-26-2018, 12:02 PM

Photos and details coming from Buttonwillow track weekend coming soon! Just gotta get home and upload them onto my computer.

StevenSlice · 03-02-2018, 11:13 AM

So lots of pictures from a fun weekend! Ive been like dying all week after getting back with no will to do anything so thats a plus.

So for starters, this was my first time ever at buttonwillow, and only the second track day in the Z.

We started off the day with a 2.12, no prior experience and still learning the car honestly. Even on just the first session i knew the day was going to be a long one with the open diff. Every corner exit it was super sloppy and just wanted to slide out and act weird.

I pushed harder and harder and by mid day i set the fastest time of my day, because after i set it there was lunch break and the track became hot and became a tad greasy.

We set a 2.07.3XX(I forgot to take a picture of the time sheet fr an exact time

)

I helped push friends who have been there multiple times to 2.07-2.08 from their 2.10 PBs, because i was pressuring them from behind and having a blast doing it.

The only corner i could take with authority, which was the corner everyone else thought id struggle with because of lack of track experience and the open diff, was Phil Hill. I made so much ground there on every other car in Intermediate with me.

Side note: Was the fastest intermediate classed car without aero, so thats a plus.

Was a fun day with friends, learned a lot, and now i need to take a break from tracking to get some setup things sorted out. I Need a LSD. My driving style with an open diff is a bad combo.

After the track day, i stayed on a friends couch instead of going home so we could hang out in Los Angeles and take photos.

My car is not photogenic by any means yet, thanks to the previous owner the paint is totally ruined. Faded / Chipped / Scratched, you name it, its there.
