For N/A it has a bit of power quiet impressive i can see this being the 240z of the future.... Does anyone know the max power you can get from a 350z? As in Extractors, High flow cat and a good exhaust and tune anyone here know anyone?

For a 2003-2005 model with the 206kW engine, on a good day you'll see around 180rwkW (depending on the dyno).

Mine pulled 195rwkW on CRD's dyno here in Sydney with practically the mods you've listed, but on APS' dyno in Melbourne I'd be lucky to see 180rwkW. When my car was making 185rwkW on CRD's dyno, it was pulling around 170rwkW at APS.

I've seen stock V35s pull higher numbers than stock Z33s, but at the same time it's a case of "different dynos, different operators" so it's hard to say.

The engine delivers power like a passenger car. As you can see, my torque curve is flat as a tack. It's great in the midrange, but until you do all those breathing mods it'll feel a bit choked up top. It depends on what you want with the car.

I've driven a 350Z with a 221kW engine and it's far nicer. The engine revs cleanly all the way to the limiter stock, where a 206kW engine will start to strain from around 1000-1500RPM from redline. The loss of 10Nm in the midrange can barely be felt, but how much smoother it feels in the top third of the rev range makes it a much nicer experience.

With recent times (years 2002 onwards), would it be fair to assume that the ADM models will be just as powerful as JDM, factoring in thier higher fuel octanes ect..? I know that with the last crop of imports by Nissan Aust, eg 200sx, they have always been detuned for various reason, redering them less potent than the cars that are in the same price bracket. As most will know, the GTR all will have same power output reguardless of country being sold at, but will this apply to all Nissans globally?

yea well how was your tune you said the 221 was good to drive but overall was it good to drive with around 180ish kw?

The tune was checked by a few different outfits. CRD did it, APS has checked it, and I've put the car on the rollers at Unigroup and Autotech here in Sydney and they haven't seen any problems with it.

If I wanted a little more power I should put the factory airbox back on the car and fit a K&N drop-in filter. The OEM airbox is a really good design, and aftermarket intakes generally kill power. I just like the noise of it. :thumbsup:

Yeah, it's going OK. The car makes a proper sports car noise at high RPM but is still really quiet at low RPM. With all the mods I've run a G-Tech measured 13.9 ET on regular street tyres on....erm......a private road in the middle of nowhere :huh: That road wasn't entirely flat so it's not 100% indicative, but then if I did a proper launch on a properly grippy surface with heated tyres it should even out.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
