This car is well known in the SW to club members and is now in my ownership. As with all new toys you want to change them to reflect your own personallity. Initially I did not like the 3 spoke Advan wheels but they have started to grow on me, and besides they all have good rubber on, for now. When their a bit worn I may decide to change both the wheels and the tyres, undecided as yet. The main bone of contention is the rear spoiler which is......huge, and totally blocks the rear view which coupled with the very stylish mirrors which I can also see feckall out of makes driving quick very tenuous as you cannot spot the old bill until he is right on your tail. The exhaust is an HKS Superdragger which sounds like a WWII Shackleton Bomber flying just over your head. You certainly dont want to be coming home late with this exhaust or even worse leaving early in the morning, not if you still want to be talking to your neighbours. Anyway here are some pics and I am definitely changing to a quieter twin pipe system and thinking about going smooth tail. What do you think lads...

i seen it at the rr day is it sasha's??? looks nice not a fan of the wheels tbh thats it lovely car

nice car mate not keen on 3 spokes love that spoiler

Spoiler needs to go. Not sure what one would look best as a replacement...probably a Bomex twin level spoiler.

 

Love the front bumper. :D

 

:)

...this spoiler....PLUS 99-spec tail lights as they look ubber cool on a black Z!

 

I like it exactly as it is apart from those silly little mirrors which are out of proportion on a big car.

Only thing I'd add is some 99 spec rear lights :)

2nd vote for 99spec lights

 

I would never of chosen any of the bodykit parts on your zed john......however I actually think it works really well and looks great !

 

..same for the wheels....3 spokes are normally :hurl: ...but when you see the car in the flesh it really suits them.

 

Strange !! LOL

Id ditch the tartan travel rug for sure dad.

Love the front end but the rest is a little too much for me.

Disowned..... and that's permanent. I need to adopt a proper son. He knows jolly well what the tartan rug is for ?

Is that the Veilside C1 spoiler?

I've always like this car. Has it had much done to the engine side of things?

I can't say I like the wing, but I do like the look of the 3 spokes, they seem to suit it really well.

Thanks David, the wheels have grown on me but the spoiler which absolutely blots out rear view vision has not done so and the same with the HKS exhaust, it really is noisey and I think looks unbalanced only having one pipe out the back. A visit to Infinity Exhausts and a twin pipe system with a couple of good size ovals poking out the back will improve the looks, and the noise.

Sadly I am not quite sure what has been done as nothing is documented. It is fitted with some expensive kit such as FCON and RVIC ECUs by a company in Oxford called Owen Developements which now tune manufacturers Rallye cars. A recent dyno run and it is currently overfueling produced 383 Bhp. It does go very well but is fitted with standard brakes, which are as usual grim. A set of 350z racing discs are going to be fitted which Jimmer (my son) has on his car and they really do stop it well and his is knocking out 426 bhp.

I am not sure what spoiler it is but it will shortly be for sale on here.

Think you'll find that's now the 3rd... lol ;)

 

Thats it then Si, 99 spec lights it is, how about a 99 spec spoiler or shall I go smooth tail.

They do a nice lip spoiler on the old soarer but probably too narrow for a Zed.
