Z Car Garage has begun the transformation of it’s first customer GT-R for a SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) show booth which takes place next week.  Work was started immediately because the car needs to be detailed and on a trailer for the show by Saturday morning.   The car will be under a full assault of modifications over the next 48 hours so the Z Car crew has a couple of sleepless nights ahead of them!

The GT-R will be receiving a full compliment of carbon accents: side skirts, front bumper insert, front splitter, side vents, and the rear lower valence panel.  The TOP SECRET coil over kit that will be used keeps the standard Bilstein struts and the driver adjustable suspension.   Next is the full titanium exhaust system with a stainless steel cat-delete mid-pipe; I will get some more info on the manufacturer and specs.   Also, there is a one off set of HRE wheels that was made specially for this car, I will need to wait for the go ahead to show pics of these because they are supposed to premier at SEMA.  The entire set up is truly a thing of beauty.

There will be more pictures and info as the week comes to a close

We had a great time out at Laguna Seca this last weekend.  Thanks to all who came out to support Z.O.N.C. and show their Z cars.  There was a great turn out at the corral and it was nice to see G35s and G37s join the group.  The races themselves left something to be desired due to the fact that every on track event was hampered by multiple cautions, sometimes without a full green flag lap between them.  Enjoy the pictures and hopefully we will have an even bigger turnout next year with some more exciting racing.

The ALMS race is tomorrow and the Z Car Corral is going to be located right around turn 5.  We are going to be bringing out a few cars so stop by and say hello.  I will also be taking pictures of the entire weekend so expect to see them up here soon (as if I don’t have enough photos to edit already.)  Be safe and have fun!!

I’m still working on the JCCS report.  My finished draft somehow was deleted last night so I will be starting over today.  It’ll be up AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.  Thanks
