Bagged/Boosted 350z Roadster
NEW PICS ON LAST PAGE! NEW WHEELS ETC!
I had another thread posted on the forums here before i thought i was considered a 'build'. I bought this car 3 years ago from the original owner with 15,000 miles on it. The car was cherry. Smelled new and drove perfect.
The car has gone through a few phases from static to air and multiple sets of wheels. Different bumpers and exhaust set ups etc. I am currently in the final stages of boosting the car, rebuilding the trunk set up and refinishing the wheels. The power goal for this year will be around 450hp to the wheels on a conservative tune.
Take a look and let me know what you think! I'm cool with thoughts either way.

Here is the car the day i bought it
First static set up
my roadster 2 by K McGuckin, on Flickr
Second static set up
When i first went air
Zedd1 by Kyle, on Flickr
When i first got my rezax and did a test fit
Once i got the tires on and did some fender pulling to get them to sit fender to lip
New bumper put on the car and new headlights
My Z (3) by Kyle, on Flickr
Then.... i pulled the whole front end off of it to get the fenders fixed and the front bumper re-sprayed. Wheels are apart and getting powder coated, air tank is getting powder coated to match as are some engine bits. Yesterday i pulled the motor apart in preparation for the super charger install. Was able to get the GTR injectors installed as well as the new Kenetix Intake Manifold... the thing is a work of art in my opinion.
Engine bay before
The super charger and other misc engine bits
Injectors
Plenum off and fuel rails out
Kenetix Plenum installed, GTR injectors installed
upgraded my BOV
installed the front mount
And where i am currently at
got the supercharger all installed. Bought a new 1 piece charge pipe since i ***** how it looked as multiple pieces. Got all the intercooler piping installed which was more of a PITA than i expected considering there is like no room in there for activities lol. Got the gauges in the pod and on the A pillar. Just need to wire them up which i am nervous about most since i don't know that shit whatsoever. Got the oil pan spacer installed yesterday and ran my oil return line to it. Just waiting on my new oil feed line and the kit will be done. After that and the gauges, it's just fuel pump time and i will be ready to see if it starts! Pretty nervous to say the least.
Also, my wheels are in pieces. Refinishing them currently at my powder coating sponsor.
