ChuckD05's PW 370z 6M

My best 60 foot is just 1.96. You should get there if you can match your launch.

Atco raceway is actualy open until the 12th of December. So two more weekends. My rear tires are almost gone right now though. I Think I'd need new rubber to get a time I'm expecting though.

I'd go long tubes headers my boy has em on his z.
Great performance mod!
After that get some winter rims and tires and save up for spring time.
We should be seeing snow within a month or so.

Chuck, those eibach springs look great but theyare hurting your launch.

As I said earlier long tube headers will be amazing!
You should also think about the Intake Manifoldd!
I'm sure you'll be in the mid 12's!

tranceformer · 11-26-2010, 06:57 PM

I don't think the manifold will help him much.

Winter wheels have actualy been ordered! The wheels I am mounting them on are going to act as my track wheels next year...

Went with MB Weapon wheels 18x9 , they are far from nice but they arent bad and will serve as a dual purpose wheel so it will be a good investment..

I am grabbing Dunlop M3 Winter Sports off a guy from the 350 forums... Setup will end up costing me under 800 bucks...

as far as LTH my shop swears it will hurt, or if not hurt, not help my power much over test pipes... If i posted this chart I have at my house which is an overlay over a car with FI LTH, FI Exhaust , and G3 intakes people would not believe the difference.. To me it doesnt make sense though.. its an expensive trial if it does indeed not help as much as promised...

And tranceformer I love the way the car sits too much to go back to stock springs though... I think with more practice I will be able to get this thing off the line much better, esp with the gears now.

Chuck, did yu decide if you're installing the LTHs?

i sold my set and went with the gears for now..

chuckd05 · 12-05-2010, 12:17 AM

MB Weapon 18x8 and 18x9 In gunmetal finish for winter tires ( Blizzacks ) Will use these for my 265/45/18 MT Street Radial II's Next year too

Will change these to mounted pics when I recieve the two front wheels on wednesday... but here are some shots just laid next to the car to get an idea... not awful...

98intrigue · 12-05-2010, 12:16 PM

Wow, those are probably the best winter wheels I've ever seen! Nice, Chuck!

chuckd05 · 12-05-2010, 12:39 PM

We will see when they are mounted. I messed up with the profile of the tire though. I should of gotten 245/45/18 , I got 245/40/18 leaving the tire a little shorting. Raising my gear ratio even more lol.. Should be fine though.

They will be mounted on Wednesday or thursday, I'll post pics ...

V-LED Interior Dome Light Pic

GTR Button with Pioneer HU

chuckd05 · 12-12-2010, 12:09 AM

Mounted the winter wheels... I am happy with the result... more pics in my album...

could go crazy and buy a 38mm Ichiba v2 spacer but I am going to leave it alone... the rear would sit better that way but its not too bad as is.. less tire shine to clean anyway. Got motegi Open Ended black lug nuts to fit my H&R extended studs as well since we need new lug nuts for these wheels anyway it was no big deal...

tranceformer · 12-12-2010, 05:55 PM

I like the new look, Chuck.
