Nothing specific here, i tend to just enjoy heavily modded turn key street cars that I can drive to the track, on the track and then back home or to work when i feel like it. I will definitely be looking to do a little bit of everything with this one. Mostly just for fun

Keep us posted on how that goes as it happens. Excited to see how far folks take these Z's.

Are you planning on taking it to just track days? Or do you plan to do any competitions with the Z?

Probably just track days if I'm honest. Competition certainly would be fun if I had more time to dedicate to it, never been in one before.

This looks sort of cool. Anyone a fan?

 

[Rusty]

Would anyone go for a wing like this for the Z?

 

[ZSpeed]

Not a fan, I think it ruins the design, but those 370Z wheels sized appropriately would be nice.

Those are Nismo wheels, right? They fit the look of the car really well. As for the wing, it looks like the equivalent of the wing StreetHunter made for the Mk5 Supra. It seems a little too aggressive for the stock body, but it might make more sense when paired with a body kit.

Those wheels look really good.

Seibon Carbon shared this rendering of the Z in their style and hopefully they do make some carbon fiber parts for it.

Here are some cool renderings

RevMatchTV has a new video out where they go over some of the initial mods that are available for the VR30.

Great to see him go in on flash tunes because that's easily the single best mod you can do to any car.

 

[ZSpeed]

I'll probably do CAI, cat back exhaust and the HE before a tune.

I am thinking about painting the grill body color for a unique look.

I'm gonna be looking at the Sport in 6spd, thinking brilliant silver or boulder gray with the 2 tone black roof.
As far as performance, simple bolt-ons like exhaust, intakes, see what's possible with the top mount intercoolers, heat exchanger (seen the red sport guys doing this) and obviously software. I had a Z32 for some time and for the setup I had, I used a big single front mount that was technically dual, just joined in the middle; so maybe something like that. Definitely wheels and tires, I'm thinking the Advan R6 in gold with a polished lip, I'd keep the 18s the sport comes with but just more meaty tires. I'll probably use the Nitto Nt05s, had really good experiences with those. A decent coilover setup more so for fitment, and to dial in any slop while cornering.
A nice high kick spoiler on the rear, riveted fender flares are a BIG maybe, I gotta see how the body looks in person. If it works out better to pump the factory fenders out a tad I'd rather do that. And fender mirrors; again thats a big maybe. Been seeing a lot of concepts incorporating the 240z style fender mirrors and they look really good, plus driving some older Nissans and Mazdas I've come to love them.
I have an original OEM 240z "Fairlady Z" badge I want to use, but I'm thinking of holding onto that for something else. I did see on the Nissan JP site they do have it listed as "フェアレディ Z" which is Fairlady, so big possibility there.
I guess it all comes down to what the car really is like in person. Can't wait to see them modded out on the street!!

Hey @_accurate welcome to the forum! Advan R6s would be a good choice, I haven't used Nittos before but I hear good things. Do you have another Z you'd use the Fairlady badge for?

Thank you for the welcome! It's more of an art project I'm putting together, you could say it's a "Z" dedication project that isn't an actual car. I grew up around Zs a lot, the Z32 was my dream car since I was kid. My dad had a pearl white 2+2, and I ended up getting a 2+0 slicktop turbo rhd. But seeing this new RZ34 chassis definitely inspired me, especially when I get on Gran Turismo 7 🤣

Is there anything you did to your RHD Z that you would do to the 2023 Z? Curious because I think we might see some folks use whatever aftermarket shift knob they had on their old car.

Possibly the tomei wheel and shift knob. I have a set of super advans but only problem is they're 17s so they're way too small for my taste; or possibly the calipers lol
