My 370Z Journal - The Evo Killer

Sounds like a pretty solid plan. Can't wait to see them

EVO_Killer · 08-21-2009, 03:11 PM

Sweet!!! Just talked to my mech at Nissan and I'm booked for Thursday! I have so much to do anyway they gave me my mech for the whole day to knock out whatever I want... What you think the order should be? Don't want to leave my car with them over night. Can't sleep without her!

I'm thinking for sure...

1. Berk HFC
2. Mount Volk RE30's (already balance and TPMS installed) Thx again Ryan!

3. Calibrate new TPMS to my 370
4. Wheel alignment

Still got...
1. HKS Coilovers (Will try myself with no english instructions but may have Nissan do it. yikes 2.9hr front and 2.4hr back!!!)
2. SPL Rear Camber Arms (may do myself as well doesn't look to hard)
3. Silicone Radiator Hoses
4. Magden Performance Computer (Still waiting on Amplified!!!

)
5. SPC Front Camber Arms (Backordered 2-3 weeks)
6. GoPro Motorsports Wide Camera Kit(Thanks Mike at Doubledown Motorsports!!!) 1 week away!

Dropped my car at Nissan today for my goodies. They finished installing the Berk HFC's, and the front HKS Coilovers. Finishing the HKS Rear Coil's tommorow along with mounting my Volk RE30's and getting a wheel alignment. They might sneak in my silicone radiator hoses and rear camber arms tommorow too!

Lots of pics tommorow!!!

Got a GoPro Wide Motorsports Camera from Mike at Doubledown Motorsports so I'll have some cool pics and vids this weekend!!! (Thanks alot Mike came today!!!

)

^^ Sounds like you and I will have a very similar setup! A few things different due to brand but overall pretty darn close! You're gonna enjoy it....I promise!

We are very close! We should get our Z's together! That would be an AWESOME race!!!

You get any Spawn parts yet? Mine sould be soon! Whats next for you?

Ahhhh!!!!! I want her back now!!!! Now you got me all anxious to see and hear her!!!

2theextreme · 08-27-2009, 06:49 PM

No, nothing yet. I've already made payment for the 3 pieces I want (pillars, rear valence, & front valence).....I was told two weeks....two weeks will be tomorrow. I don't want to bug John, I'm sure the wait will be worth it!

After the CF parts.....right now, I really don't know. Considering the obvious, which is either turbo or supercharger....or maybe just the AccessPORT. I told a 350 driver last week that I think I'm almost done with the upgrading and mod's...he laughed and said: "Dude! You're NEVER done!"

EVO_Killer · 08-27-2009, 07:09 PM

I keep harrassing John but he's a cool dude so I don't think he minds. Mine was suppose to ship last Friday but he told me he needed a bit more time. I have no worries. His products look top notch!!!

I would love to get my hands on a Mines' VX-Rom ECU!!!

Thinking about some brake options... Waiting to hear from Doubledown about the SS Brake lines.

I think I want some sway bars... You like yours???

Oh yeah.....been noticing how they handle recently. I swear sometimes I can feel the car lean into the turn and just slowly lean back out of it. It's a pretty cool feeling!

EVO_Killer · 08-28-2009, 08:42 PM

Got her back today and what a nice surprise....

Finished the Berk HFC install. A very nice gain in power. There is a change in sounds as well but I can't describe it... Going to mount the GoPro Camera and show you all...

Installed SPL Pro Rear Camber arms. Sweet!

Installed HKS Hipermax III Coilovers. Have them set to factory specs for now and they felt smooth @ss all the way home. Love em!!! There are no English instructions included with these and none available from HKS when I called.

Mounted Volk RE-30 in 19X10 +30 and 19X11 +20. SEXY AS HELL!!!! Have them wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE-11's 265 front and 305 rear. No wheel rub at all!!!! The car feels amazing! I can't wait to get a video with the GoPro cam!

Big thanks to Ryan at Forged for the killer awesome deal on the rims and tires. Awesome people over there!!!

Thanks to Steven at Amplified Motorsports for the sweet hookup on the HKS Hipermax III's!!!

Still have Volk Black center caps, Kics R40 Black Chrome Wheel locks, SPC Front camber arms, and the Magden Computer coming!

Looks good. I think I would have stayed with red tails but my opinion doesn't matter much.

2theextreme · 08-31-2009, 11:12 AM

Perfect shot of what was rubbing on my tires:

Those two little plastic clips or pins. Then again, my car was apparently lowered about 2 inches!

Looking good! I know you'll love it!

CrownR426 · 08-31-2009, 12:38 PM

Looking fresh to death!
Black on Black is the only way.
Be easy.

Ryan@Forged · 09-01-2009, 10:51 AM

Looks great Lance! I'll get the rest of that stuff over to you as soon as it gets in
