Default Ex 350z Owner going for a change

Hi Guys

Just joined on here really posted this on the .com forum not exactly sure how this works lol. I was a 350z owner and enjoyed the car alot, but my biggest problem was the engine, it was a UK and remap was a nightmare, the ECU was self learning, Turbo could only go 380 on stock internals, but for the car itself was a really fun thing to mod.

I sold the car last year and am looking at modding a s2000 on both looks and engine wise, Ive been told that the engine has forged internals and mase can do a turbo kit which can bring it 500bhp on stock internals... Thats CRAZY!!!! Just want to know if there has been any response on it reliability or any info on it what so ever. Also just looking at what the UK scene has done on exterior mods on the car so if you could post pics or direct link of your car that be great!

In the mean time heres some pics of my old 350z, just so you know Im not some 5 year old wannabe Wont be to everyones taste but I liked it

Hi mate, sorry dont really like that at all but each to there own. I prefer the stock looks with the subtle bodykit my mate has one and its look nice.

One guy has a mase 616BHP S on here in UK its a beast allright!

Most have gone with Superchargers to around 360-410BHP

Me I'm at a crappy circa 250bhp

The Z looks nice! The red seats offer a nice contrast!

I like that and very nearly bought a Z350 too.
But once mastered, the S is superior in every respect.
The main thing is you dont see many about, and even less that are modified

Enjoy the ride, and those pics are pro. Top job.
