If you were wondering where the 350z that you have seen lapping Thunderhill, Laguna Seca (twice), and which received a MotorDyne single exhaust has gone….. it blew up! This car has seen HARD use at the track since the first day of his life and the engine finally let go. It looks like the crown above the rings on cylinder five had just had enough and decided to bounce around the chamber for awhile.
A “new” VQ35DE was sourced and swapped in with all the goodies that were taken off the old engine. We then went off to the dyno and we seemed to have found seven more horsepower and eight ft-lbs of torque at the wheels. Unfortunately the track-day season is mostly over but keep your eyes peeled for this car in your mirrors at the first events on the calendar next year. DOOT!!
