Default Finally a Z owner, LOVE THIS CAR
Hi everyone,

I am a new 370z owner. I picked up my z about a year and half ago, and I love the car.

I have been lurking around for a little while but finally wanted to come out of the shadows.

The z that I bought is the 2010 touring .......


My current mods are:
Custom made high flow cats. Just precats no postcats. Megan Y Pipe. Custom factory airbox modification. 25 row Setrab thermostatic oil cooler. Custom GTM 70mm racing radiator.

My future mods are: Twin IHI Turbo at 500whp, 400wt, Swift Springs, High speed custom spoiler and diffuser, OS Giken clutch, SSR wheels and larger rear tires (31520ZR19). Under body 6 point brace reinforcement. Racing Titanium seats.


I hope to also attend some of the local meets in the bay area.

cant wait to meet some of the new family!!

Hello everyone,

Yes. Definitely I will get all of you posted on what I have been doing and what I am going to do in the future.

So, far, the 5 mods in this car are : Custom High Flow Cats, Megan Y Pipe , slight modification of the 2 intake air boxes, 25 row Setrab oil cooler and a very large 70mm radiator.

Soon, I will post in the DYI section of how to install the oil cooler and necessary modifications needed in order to install a largest possible radiator in this Z34.

My goal is aiming towards power AND reliability for everyday use. Of course, no one in the aftermarket world that I know of can design such a reliable system as the manufacturer can. However, for the past 12 years of cars mods, I have tried my best to achieve this goal, and still have a long way to go. I am very happy if I can achieve about 85%- 90% of the factory's reliability specs.

So, please stay tuned, everyone and thank you....... Cheers

Oh by the way.... I totally forgot : I had the Eibach sway bars ( F+R ) installed as well. So, that makes 6 mods instead of 5 so far....

Thank you so much. I will have more valuable mods soon. It takes a lot of time to do all my mods just because like I said before , I am striving to achieve the best reliability as I could. So, please stay tuned.
