the nismo wing should complete the whole look.

TJ, it has really come together very nicely. Monterrey Blue looks amazing with the Nismo kit and wheels!

Pick the 370z, the 300zx sucks up gas like a camel.

Finally got around to doing a video of my current exhaust. (FI TDX) Wow what a comparison!

old setup: (holy rasp batman!)

new setup:

Neighbors are happier.

excellent mod journey, nice writeup.

haitech · 10-09-2011, 04:40 PM

how come I hear a suction or hiss on deceleration?

tjlazer · 10-18-2011, 06:27 PM

^ cuz thats what happens with HFC's and A CBE on the Z34.

tjlazer · 11-02-2011, 06:01 PM

Fall is here, enjoying some nice no rain days still.

Trying to decide my next mod. A wing... Hopefully will have it on by spring.

Recently changed out a bunch of interior bulbs to LED.

Did the Map lights
Visor lights
Trunk light

Much improved and better lighting!

On the Map lights I was deciding if I wanted to get the panel board or just get a single bulb. I decided to just get a bulb and see how bright it was--it was complely fine and IMHO no need for this multiple panel board. It's expensive too.

Map light:
WLED-xHP Specifications

Visors:
F30-WHP Fuse Type Lamp Specifications

Trunk light:
6 High Power LED Rectangle Type Wedge Base Bulb Specifications

Pulled the plug and bought a Nismo replica wing. Looks like a Seibon wing but it's FRP.

No center post just like the Seibon. It's called the Nismo 370Z Duraflex N-2.

Spoiler cost me $268 shipped! I just cannot justify paying $2,500 for the real one, plus paint and install!

Stopped by the body shop and I was quoted $600 for prep, paint and install. Good deal?
