Default Supercharged 350z drift prepared

I'm considering selling my supercharged 350z as I fancy a e46 m3 that I've seen. I bought the car from nicad-7 on this forum, and can only describe it as a complete animal. He wrote such a good add I'm shamelessly gonna copy and paste it. I will add some more recent pics in the next few days

Ive decided to venture into a different kind of motorsport so unfortunately, without question the best drift car I have ever driven is up for sale...



Spec;

2003 JDM Import
Taxed till 31/07/11
MOT till April 2012
Mileage - 40,000 km/miles (covered about 30k km's from Japan)
No service history from Japan, car was imported in '09. However I have Changed the oil after every drift event and the diff oil every few months, also currently has fresh gearbox oil and coolant.

Engine;

3495cc VQ35DE
Stillen Stage 4 Supercharger Kit
JWT induction Kit
Custom single exit full stainless exhaust
Japspeed Y pipe
NGK 2 grade colder sparks
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
Nismo thermostatic oil cooler



Drivetrain;

XTD Light weight flywheel
Exedy Stage 2 paddle clutch
Tomei Traxx Advance 2 way diff
Tomei 3.9 final drive gearset (have standard final drive also as a spare)
Rebuilt gearbox with less than 2000 miles on (about 9 months warranty left on it)







Suspension;

DW CS2 Coilovers
Kinetix Upper Front Camber Arms
Kinetix Rear camber arms
Kinetix Rear toe arms
Super Pro compression arm bushes
Custom front strut brace








Exterior;

Stillen fiberglass bonnet cowl
EP Racing carbon fibre rear hatch
Azev a 17x8 and 17x9 alloy wheels
25mm hubcentric spacers front and rear
S2000 Stubby aerial
Custom rear bumper tuck
Black style headlights














Standard trim
Nardi red corn dished steering wheel
Snap off wheel boss
Crystal gearknob
DW Handbrake button



Like I said this is the best drift car I've owned by miles, and Ive had a few :nod:
Supercharger gives awesome power delivery, has enough poke to light up 265's in 4th, totally different to a turbo and for good reasons IMO. Was able to use 4th on the limiter at Santa Pod on a hot dry day!
Modern chassis makes a huge difference. So much grip the way you want it, was able to keep up, even catch up, to pro drivers at the pod pretty easily

Can't really praise the car enough, if you don't buy it for how awesome it drifts then at least buy it for the noise it makes! alschaser:

So far it has served me as an excellent daily drifter, however add a cage and other competition parts and it could easily be a pretty competative car. Or keep it as a daily, it costs me 700 a year to insure fully comp and returns 30mpg average!

Only bad points are, as you'd expect from drifting - minor cone scrapes and rubber, could probably T-cut it all out easily enough I just havent had a chance. There is some damage to the rear drivers quater which I will get better pics asap





Build thread is at the bottom of my sig so you can see the life its lead since my ownership since September last year.

Will get more recent pics up soon

I don't feel like I have to justify the price, it owes me nearly double that anyway!
I'm after £8500

Thanks chaps, with the furling tweaked it'll be a little over 400bhp, I'd say around 370bhp ATM. In a straight line it's almost as quick as my old gtr skyline. It flys

Thanks chaps, it must be too cheap with the responce I've had. Here's a couple of pics, will do better ones when I've given her a good clean.

Here before the stickers were removed with my Varrstoen wheels, which can stay for a additional £800





And with the azev (bad quality iPhone pic)
