Plenty of bolt on supercharger and turbo conversions already available, theyve got well over 700bhp from turbod versions of them engines already if i remember right.

Theres one in the states that runs 7sec 1/4s, but it has a Skyline engine

Theres also more than 1 in the states thats ran 10s on a std engine and nitrous, LOTS of nitrous and slicks, but all the same...

Standard performance isnt mental tho, and as they non turbo, tuning isnt nothing special till you turbo them, but they look smart, esp in Blue. Bloke round corner from me has a Blue one AND a Orange one AND a R32GTR

Cheers Steve

My Uncles got one and is looking to get something done to it as hes now got the bug for Goodwood track days. Is there any "off the shelf" (so to speak) chips that can up the power reliably and safely without effecting the warranty?

My Dad has this one...



The performance on the road from 30-140 was IDENTICAL to my RS when standard, but it's a different story now mines tweaked. It doesn't feel stupidly fast but isn't slow by any means. I'm sure 0-60 is around 5.5 and top end is 155, but Dad's slows down considerably past 140 tbh. He has been round Dono in it, I was passenger, superb go-kart like handling, very well planted + responsive, really fun car, brakes only lasted a few laps before serious fade + 'long pedal' though, would get some good pads + fluid in there. Absolutely love the car!

I had a drive in a 350z for one day.
The car doesn't feel so fast as my saph, but it drive's great, good brakes and good cournering for a standard car, and a lot of torque.

But on higher speed it isn't as fast as my saph

Lots and lots of road noise from the rear tyres!
Nice torquey engine
When doing the brake fade tests for model approval the std Nissan brakes (available only on the lower spec Jap models) were almost exactly the same as the generic Brembo crap that people pay good money for!

I don't know how you discribe it in English but the noise comes from the innerside of the rear wheels and Nissan have noticed this problem and is looking for a answer for it.
