A few suggestions for future mods to help in your quest for high 13's:
Plenum spacer and/or plenum
High flow cats
ECU reflash (a must after all mods are installed)

BTW, beautiful sedan! We need more like yours.

Smaller wheels.

And maybe test pipes/high-flow cats.

Well it's definitely not a T-Rex grille. The T-Rex has only 11 bars. I think it looks better than the T-Rex, though.

actually, for 2005 model, T-Rex does have 13 bars, as the 2005's grille is slightly higher than 2003-2004 models.

Yeah but I count 16 bars on that grille. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks. I believe it's "Lunar" tint. I opted for the 3 year warranty film and not the lifetime (I rarely keep a car more than a year).

The Progressive spokes are pretty light and those 275s on the rear should add some traction.

If there is a way to keep the dreaded "Check Engine" light from coming on, I might try some high flow cats.

I'm thinking about some Pro-1 headers, a Y pipe and a lighter flywheel. I think they will compliment my new 3.917 gears quite nicely.


This car *seems* significantly quicker/more responsive than my '04 base 350Z 6MT (when it was stock) and it was a much lighter car. When I shift from 1st to 2nd The back end is all over the road, even with the 275s. Maybe it's the way I broke this one in..heh. 1600 miles in 6 days..LOL

I have no idea what brand grill that is. I got it off E-bay. I'll check and see what the auction said about it...

Thanks. This car gets a lot of attention. I am kinda surprised!

For the reflash I take it the technosquare is the best? I wonder if they can do the '05 ecu yet? How much is the plenum spacer? Which one makes more power? The plenum or the spacer?

I think the 3.917 gears will net me a 13.9 with what I have right now. This car pulls very strong.... I am somewhat miffed at how well it runs... It definately pulls harder than my '04 Z and '04 G35 Coupe (Both 6MTs). I can't wait to dyno next week
