Tommorow will be the big day(my dad still kicks my ***)
 
So yeah I will be getting my 2009 370 tommorow after a pretty long time of waiting for approval of the loan.

Its a demo model with about 5000 kilometers on it. Full option.

Always drove renault models but that changed after my dad bought a GT-R and I got to have a test drive with a 370.

Delicious it is.

So tommorow i will be posting pictures of it.

But in the maintime il post some pics of my current ride and the GT-R

GT-R black edition(pictures taken by some guy when leaving top gear live in amsterdam)

GT-R now got a akrapovic exhaust and damn does it roar.

Current ride: renault megane coupe 1.9 diesel.

those rims and tires will go on the 370 when the weather is less snowy.

quite a nice upgrade from the megane no?

Congrats on your Z! Love that Renault, what kind of torque does the diesel put out?

I have 4 GTR's sitting outside on my lot, I see them every day. Haven't seen a Renault since I was in the carribean a few years ago!

Congrats! A couple years ago I spent some time driving around Switzerland in a Renault. Nice cars kinda reminded me of a Nissan a little bit.

I doubt the offset of those wheels will fit on the Z correctly. Is the bolt pattern/spacing even the same?

130 HP 300 nm

People can say crap about renault all day. but that thing drove like a beauty.

I must admit the shock will be harsh I never drove anything with more than 130 hp and I always drove fwd

Vegitto-kun 02-12-2010 10:38 AM

Got the car.

I am enjoying it so hard. I did scare myself I was flooring it but it was just going to 4000 rpm and then switching gears but then I pressed the pedal harder and it clicked and then the revs suddenly jumped to 6000 revs.

Best experience ever. :rofl2:

also I lolled at sliding without using the handbrake. fun times are ahead

pictures.

Congrats! :tup:

Vegitto-kun 02-12-2010 01:02 PM

This thing is scary if you come from a 130 HP diesel. I did a 0-60 run.

damn it goes fast.

Are there any things that are advised to mod/change?

1slow370 02-13-2010 05:43 AM

yeah don't use the renault wheels even if look killer they won't even be nearly as wide as the z wheels so even if they fit you will lose a TON of grip. The widest FWD wheel i've seen is only 8inches wide the Z wheels are 9 inch front and 10inch rear. The sport wheels that you have are crazy light for stock wheels and the rear will take up to a 295-305 wide tire. as for upgrades pick some swaybars, cold air intake and a cat back exhaust.

The tires on the renault are 255/30/19

It does suck that belgium lacks any decent tuning shops. I mean constantly having to order online sucks and I lack the proper knowledge to properly tune anything

m4a1mustang 02-13-2010 08:01 AM

Those wheels/tires on the Renault won't cut it on the Z. You'll be all over the place with those tiny things.

As far as tuning goes... all you need are the proper hand tools and you can do it yourself for the basic bolt ons. No actual "tuning" required.

Vegitto-kun 02-13-2010 08:07 AM

Uck I paid about 4000 bucks on those tires+rims. what a waste of money.

but it is true. front wide wise they are abit bigger but the back wheels are 285 I think and those are the most important.

damnit this sucks haha
