Since it was my birthday this weekend, I was given a Zed as a present.
Totally out the blue and took me by total suprise.
At first glance I can make out a few mods which are:

- Nismo front bumper
- Nismo sideskirts
- Nismo rear spats
- 19" Racing Hart CR 6-spokes
- unidentified rear spoiler
- custom paintjob with airbrushed graphics
- polished powersteering and washer bottles
- Cold air intake
- JWT Popcharger
- polished plenum
- bonnet dampers
- custom exhaust with 4" rolled tips

Here are the pics

An American import 276bhp with no side repeaters :)

That's quite an accurate little model actually

I love it ;)

I got a 1/18 scale model of a 350Z before I actually owned a real one. It's annoying that no one seems to make 1/18 models of the 370Z :)

You had me all excited then but I can only see 1/43 370Z models there, not 1/18 :band:

There are some nice GT-R ones though!

Sooo close. I really would like a 1:18 because that's the scale of the 350Z I have.

It does looks good though - and as I have to build it I could add spacers! :P

No what you really want is the 1:10 scale Tamiya Radio Controlled Z. I have the 350 (painted in the correct colour) and have just ordered a 370 bodyshell. Mix and match.

How sad am I ...

Don't worry - I bet you're not the only one :P
