For Sale by owner, myself, title in hand is my 2003 Nissan 350Z Twin Turbo. In 2005 I traded in my 2003 Mitsubishi Evo 8 for a 2003 Nissan 350Z. At the time I was stationed in Colorado and the elevation killed the naturally aspirated VQ35DE power. Dyno results showed a 30whp lost due to the elevation. Only way to overcome this power loss was a power adder… Or two.
In 2008 I went with the JWT 700BB Twin Turbo kit sporting the famous Disco Potato GT2860RS turbos. Funds were limited so I stuck with the stock block. End result was an average of 420whp and 400wtq at 10psi. To help stop the extra power StopTech ST40 & ST22 big brakes were added. A JWT clutch and flywheel was selected to take the boost abuse and a TurboXS UTEC for tuning. In July of 2010, back home in Houston, the OEM 2003 weak transmission finally give out and I lost third gear. Funds were ever more limited and I parked the Z. I told myself I wouldn’t fix the trans unless I was ready to build the block at the same time. A lot of reading, telephone calls and research ensued. December 2011 I started the engine build with an IPP Stage 3 VQ long block sporting; PolyDyn coated CP 8.5:1 pistons, Cosworth Rods, JWT C2 cams, ARP L19 rods and bolts, heads & valve job and, all other supporting parts was purchased. As time passed more and more was added. The UTEC had served it purpose but was very dated. HalTech released their full ECU replacement Platinum Pro EMS and I knew that was the only was to control & tune the new engine. The JWT clutch just wouldn’t take the abuse of the extra power so a Carbonetic Twin Disc and flywheel was chosen. The OEM LSD was good but I wanted the best and so a Quaife diff went in. Since I have ambition to run the Texas Mile, the 350Z auto, 3.3 final drive gear replaced the six speed manual’s 3.5 ratio. Heat is always a problem in Houston and I didn’t want to worry about it. The Nissan Pathfinder cooling mod was installed on the block, a Koyo oversized radiator was already installed and I had everything PolyDyn coated. All piping, the down pipes, exhaust manifolds and, turbine housings. To finish off the exhaust I went with the Greddy RS catback. The Hotchkis springs were another item that have served their purpose and I wanted the best again. KW V3 coil overs were installed with SPL camber arms and links. As far as the body components, the Z went to PowerFab with an AeroSync N1 front, Seibon TS carbon hood, Nismo sides, CraftSquare mirrors and, Seibon TT carbon rear lip. A Seibon TT carbon rear spoiler is waiting to get installed. To finish the car I needed new wheels. I had been researching a lot of different wheel companies to replace my WORK Meister S1s. I wanted a custom offset and I wanted the best in the industry. So I made contact with Tony at Deviate Motoring. I knew I didn’t want a three piece wheel again and that a mono block was my only route. I place an order for 19" HRE P43SC wheels wrapped with Toyo R888 R-compound tires. To finish off the black/carbon fiber theme HRE Custom carbon fiber center caps were added. JTran Studios Mustang dyno showed 446whp, 446wtq @ 16psi on 93 pumps gas. This should relate to the 500 range on a DynoJet dyno. Plenty of room to grow at 19-20psi! PowerFab Dyno show 551whp, 559wtq @ 16psi (18psi peak) on 93 pump gas. http://youtu.be/KUCJW6UfWLw Gearhead Flicks YouTube Video: http://youtu.be/19KX6-N45tE Factory Options:3.5L V6, 6sp, Heated Leather Seats, LSD, TCS/VDC, all pwr options.

'Qashqai' so hard to pronounce even Nissan is poking fun at it
Mon, 14 Apr 2014In the US, there aren't a lot of vehicle names that are very difficult to pronounce. Maybe the Volkswagen Touareg might trip up a few people, but by and large, we've got it pretty easy. Our friends in Europe, though, have a bigger challenge, thanks to vehicles like the Nissan Qashqai. Yes, Qashqai.
Like the Touareg, the Qashqai draws its name from a nomadic people. While Nissan isn't making up words, then, it's still not an easy name to pronounce. Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson routinely calls it a kumquat, for example. According to Nissan, though, it's pronounced "Cash'kai".
To get its point across as the second-gen Qashqai, the close cousin of the US market Rogue, prepares to launch in Australia, Nissan set up a little event at a coffee shop. Customers would place their orders, only to have the spelling of their names butchered rather badly. On the other side of the cup, there's a message from Nissan and the Qashqai.
Nissan 370Z Nismo freshening coming tomorrow
Thu, 15 May 2014Nissan is set to bring a special to the Fairlady faithful at the annual ZDAYZ fest. Based on the sole teaser and the event it's being unveiled at, it's pretty clear that Nissan is going to be issuing some kind of update to the Nismo version of its 370Z.
What that update is, though, is unclear. We can see a few small visual tweaks, like the horizontal LED running lights and their associated vertical vent. The grille looks reformed as well. Beyond that, though, it looks like we're stuck waiting for the full details until tomorrow afternoon. Until then, take a look below for the world's shortest press release.
NHTSA opens investigation into Nissan's handling of airbag recall
Mon, Mar 23 2015In March of 2014, Nissan recalled eight models among its Nissan and Infiniti brands, totaling more than one million vehicles, over faulty occupant classification system software controlling the passenger airbag. The company discovered a variety of factors that would interfere with the system's ability to detect an adult passenger in the shotgun seat, resulting in an illuminated warning on on the dashboard and the passenger airbag not deploying in an accident. Yet 124 complaints submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration since the recall allege that the dealer-installed fix hasn't actually fixed the problem; some consumers say the problem persists after multiple trips to the dealer. The Detroit News reports that NHTSA is opening an investigation into the matter to determine whether a new recall is needed. The occupant sensor has been a bugbear for Nissan over the past couple of years; a much smaller recall for the issue in 2013 covered five of the eight vehicles that were recalled in 2014, and that earlier recall also continued to generate complaints after the issue had supposedly been fixed. At the same time, the company learned that in two instances there was another twist, where the dashboard warning wasn't illuminated but the passenger airbag still didn't go off in an accident. Nissan isn't alone, though, with airbag recalls on a steep upswing across the industry even before the Takata debacle.
