Three 370Z's prepare for Top Secret Japan's arrival in Houston!
Hi fellas,
Last thursday MaydayGarage was at Secret Services auto early in the morning to document some baseline test numbers for 3 different 370Z's. These Z's will undergo a very dramatic change in less than 30 days in preparation for a private session tune with none other than "Smoky" Nagata of Top Secret Japan starting March 28th. These Z34's are completely stock and still have their paper plates, but that will change. Planet Zero and Baker-Jackson Nissan have overnighted prototype parts from various companies such as Top Secret, PowerHouse Amuse, Recaro, etc. Here is a super quick vid: http://vimeo.com/10027614 For the whole story, dyno sheets, pictures and such, visit www.maydaygarage.com Stay tuned while we document the 30 day process of these 370Z's on MaydayGarage. --David-- |

Hope they can meet the deadline, 30 days seems long but they have a fully stock car and plenty of work to do.

They'll make it. All the parts are in from Top Secret and awaiting installation. The guys building it say the interior may not be finished, but the performance parts will be ready for Smoky.

I believe it'll stay NA for Smoky's tune. From what I hear, he really wants to get a feel for our gasoline in an NA setup. Once he's done, who knows?
There's a rumor that Baker-Jackson Nissan will be getting a GT-R tuned by Smoky, too. So, Godzilla and Mothra together, destroying Houston? Sounds fun. As for Smoky's Supra, I've heard it's a Nissan engine in there, right?
