Jeff long time no see! Nice to see everything you've done to your Z. Now that you're dropped I'm curious to ask you if you've had any scraping issues with the Stillen front lip or the flanges on the Berk exhaust. I'm itching to drop the car. Hope to see you at the local meets soon!

Hey nick. Yeah its been a while. And no I have not scraped my stillen lip yet. But I am always scraping my sport chin spoiler. I was thinking of taking it off but couldn't figure how lol. The drop makes a huge difference you should definitely do it. Throw 25mm spacers all around and you're perfectly flush

Have you thought about grinding down part of the chin spoiler for ground clearance? At least at that point it would add a little extra protection to your fascia. Arnold did it to his car and he said he barely scrapes it anymore.

I'll drop the car eventually. Everyday I get closer and closer to doing it. Only thing I'm waiting on is if I want to spend extra money to get Koni's along with it.... Haven't made up my mind yet.

As for the Nismo spoiler, I actually have the Seibon NSM full carbon fiber version which is a bit cheaper. There is also an EVO-R replica out there now and theres even a new thread where somebody purchased a replica off of ebay for like $250. Not sure if he has installed it yet, Ill try to find the thread.

Here it is: Nissan 370Z 09-11 Duraflex N-2 Wing Spoiler

oh wow that's cheap. i wonder how the fitment and quality is. can't wait to see him install it.

Its tjlazer who is doing pretty much a full Nismo conversion.

Calipers look awesome!!! Your car has come a long way since I saw it at the track that day. I love everything you've done. Now you just need a nice intercooler in your bumper and the car will be perfected. Haha.

Thanks chuck! Hopefully we get more track time this year and hopefully its not 108 out. haha the intercooler would make the car perfect. But my wallet would be completely dry

grey car and red brakes, great color combo



just how I'd do a 370z if I had one rather than my 350. Loving the pics, keep them coming!
