“The World’s Fastest Electric Racing Car” is here! Remember the Juke-powered Deltawing? Nissan is back with a similar wildly-shaped race car now with full electric motivation.

SoCal GT-R Cruise 3: Starts at 6:45 am Saturday at Cars and Coffee
Saturday, June 22, 2013
6:45am
Round 3! We are going to meet directly at Cars & Coffee on the top level of the Structure this time. We’ll have an insane photo shoot lined up on PCH which is about 5 miles from C&C around 8am. Once we’re satisfied there, we’ll cruise down to Vista, CA (if you’re interested in the full trek) for the HRE Open House. I really want to have as many as possible at C&C and the photo op in Laguna. We had 40 cars the first time, 52 on Invasion II and the goal is 75 for III.
For more information please visit GTRLife.com and to view pics from the past GT-R invasion go HERE.
We are only 1 week away! Come join us on June 26, 2013 at Sonoma/Infineon Raceway. We have a large group of cars planning to go so don’t miss out!
If you would like to caravan up from the South Bay meet at ZCarGarage at 1:30pm, 2pm departure!
All the information you need about the track and racing itself is located HERE

We have been taking care of Carlton’s 350z for a long time and he recently needed to replace worn brakes. Instead of the costlier OEM rotors/pads/lines we installed a Stoptech Sport Kit:
The kit consists of slotted rotors, stainless braided brake lines and performance pads. This is a fantastic alternative to the OEM parts and perfect for the demanding Z-car owner who enjoys”spirited” driving. If your Z is up for a brake service and you don’t want to spring for a full aftermarket caliper big-brake kit, consider the Stoptech Sport Kit!
Gary M came to ZCG to have Stillen intakes installed and an UPREV tune to maximize the benefits of the new breathing mods. His G37 Convertible already had a custom exhaust installed so here is the baseline with mild gains from the Stillen Gen3 intakes alone for a total of 294hp/244tq to the wheels:
Rob’s UPREV tuning yielded +8hp/9tq to the wheels for a total of 304hp/253tq. On the dyno note the improvements from low rpm all the way to redline:
Just another example of how UPREV tuning can optimize your bolt-on power mods!
