Nissan 370z GT Edition
Discussion
My new toy picked up just before Christmas a '12 GT Edition 7 speed auto in pearlescent white, traded in a 350z manual that I just couldn't bond with.
Liking it so far would be nice to get a dry spell so I could play a bit more but nothing not to like, quite like the tiptronic 'box my daily is a DSG VRS Fabia and this is just a good , not so seamless through the shifts but not as jerky as the dsg from a standstill, like the DSG it has a manual mode and the flappy paddles also temporarily override the auto mode if you want to drop down or hold a gear
The "Edition" model comes with the anthracite coloured wheels, side stripes, more soundproofing to reduce the noise from those wide rear tyres and a tweaked suspension set up for better high speed stability apparently. This is a nicely specced one with sat nav, ipod connectivity on top of the GT pack.
Will change the exhaust later in the year and probably go for a up rev remap but extensive mods aren't really on the cards......for once

.Made a few changes
Fitted a set of Nissan mudguards came from the USA pre painted for less than Nissan wanted over here for the bare unpainted ones , also fitted a GTR start button and corrected the dreadful exhaust note with a cat-back Invidia Gemini system
The metal flake in the paint really pops in the sun

Been a while since I updated but thought I'd take some pics before wrapping it up for the winter
So since 2014 I have fitted Eibach anti-roll bars and 25mm spacers, high flow cats, intake pipes and had the car remapped (Uprev)also fitted an aluminium undertray, re-profiled and re-trimmed steering wheel and Infiniti gearknob, as well as a host of other little mods. Best of all I replaced the dreadful OEM Bridgestone Potenzas for Michelin pilot super sports, highly recommended !
