hey all, i have started moding my 06 350z. so far i have a mandrel bent catback system into canons, i have also gotten installed a bmc cda carbon dynamic air box. i have also just purchased a haltech platinum interceptor not installed yet.

i want to add on some xforce extractors and some plenum spacers, then get the interceptor added and car tuned

does any one have any other ideas on how i can increase power before i start spending money on turbos and what not ( presently saving to get a twin turbo kit next year :banana: )

:banana:

That's just about all you can do before it starts costing heaps, eg if you opened it up to work on the head it probably in the end be cheaper to get a twin turbo kit.

Work on suspension, don't need heaps of power for a quick car...

depends on how far you want to take it man.

Having owned a 350z, If you plan to keep it NA I would say upgrade the entire exhaust system. Change the Y pipe, Catback, CATS and headers (although this can be pricey). The amuse exhaust system is made of titanium and has an extremely sexy exhaust note.

The plenum spacer is a great mod for the zed as it makes it pull alot better top end. The intake is kinda a useless mod and really does not do much for performance except for engine bay bling and perhaps a bit of sound.

NA mods for the zed is fairly limited, another thing you could look into is changing the final drive? This may help improve response?

BUT

If money is no object then I would simply say just to TT it.

Then don't waste your money on NA mods. None of the NA powertrain mods can be retained when you go TT, aside from the plenum spacer.

An 06 should also have the REVUP engine, that doesn't really need the plenum spacer.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
