Nissan Z, Nissan 350Z


Nissan 350z Performance

There is something about the Nissan 350Z that makes it irresistible. Its probably a combination of smooth power, spectucular handling and a sleek and sexy look that make the 350Z a tuner's dream car. A few companies, including Stillen and Procharger offer superchargers for the Z that immediatly increase horsepower to about 400. More common aftermarket parts, such as headers, an air intake, an exhaust system and even a nitrous system can be added to give your Z a little extra pull off the line.

Although the stock Z suspension is a sensational piece of engineering, some tuners choose to purchase an upgraded suspenion which lowers ride height and helps the already nimble 350Z around the corners. Brembo brakes can also be installed on the Z to create a very exciting race car. In terms of body modifications, Stillen and Nismo have cornered the market on Z body kits, but there are a few other choices if you want your 350 to be more unique. Aftermarket rims from Racing Hart or Enkei are another popular choice for tuners of this Nissan sports car.

Whether you fancy the coupe or roadster, the 350Z is fast, fun and a good value. Add on a few performance parts, however, and you're Z becomes a machine under $50,000 that will have Ferrari owners shaking in their boots.
