It seems that the issue with the Nissan GT-R as it is with many modern cars is that they are designed to use up every small piece of space and therefore it is nearly impossible to tune the engines up to get anywhere a decent HP.

However, one thing that can be upgraded is the exhaust; but surely, this is not going to make any difference to the performance is it? well to put it quite simply the answer is yes, it may just around 20 HP but that is still and increase by any ones standards, but at a cost of $2,500 and $4,000, you are going to have to decide if the weight and performance improvements are worth the outlay.

Even as it lies on the ground, it looks much more than just an exhaust. However, looks are not everything and in the case of this exhaust system, there have been some raised eyebrows. This raises the alarms to us and it turns out that Akrapovic have made exhaust systems for bikes and they were not too good.

But then again there are others that swear by them, so we need to be open here. According to the manufacturer the exhaust is over seven kilos lighter through the titanium construction and due its design and diameter the system can increase the power by around 17 HP @ 6260 rpm, now that cannot be bad, can it?

Evolution is especially effective between 2000 and 3500 rpm, which makes daily driving even more fun

Additionally, Evolution offers great advantages with regard to weight

The stock exhaust system is 17.3 kilograms heavier, while Akrapovic’s fully titanium made system weighs only 14.3 kilograms

Thus, its power to weight ratio is unbeatable

We are very proud of our achievements in improving Nissan GT-R’s performance data

We would also like to emphasize its muscular design and the sporty sound of the four big tail pipes.

Features:

Evolution complete system:

Titanium front link pipes with resonators

Titanium rear link pipe (larger diameter)

2 titanium end mufflers

4 titanium tail pipes

Hard facts:

Plus 17 HP (at 6260 rpm)

Plus 56.1 Nm (at 2600 rpm)

Minus 17.3 kg

This car has been named the Juice Z and the design certainly squeezes the appetite for more. Like the doors, you would not expect to have just any old door on this car would you? The car has been fitted with a lambo vertical door kit and boy does that look cool.

Having fitted a Vortech Supercharger and Intercooler under the hood, you would be expecting some serious power from old 350Z and you would be in luck with this car because it is touching around 422 rwp. However, you would not expect anything else considering that Jeremy from forgedperformance.com.

This model Honda is a one of those that often gets chosen by the older driver because they see it a little sporty, security of it being a Honda and because is a your average four door sedan car. This is a favourite amongst that target group and the reason why not too of these cars go on to become a great import builders finished.

Apart from that, this is a car ripe for modification. It has the body and style that lends itself to being just slightly altered with nip and tuck here and there. Under the hood is where most of the action is going to take place with plenty of a work and money spent on turning this not too bad engine into a beast.

The car is finished off in a high gloss black; with a few touches of gold paintwork add to the light effect on this car. It seems that black is a hard colour to use on a car because it shows up every little mark, scuff and speck of dirt. However, in the right hands this high gloss finish is a testament to the work and time that has gone into this car.

I have to admit that out of all that cars that we write about and feature on this site the Nissan 350Z is my favourite. I know that there are those that do not think that this is a supercar, but you only have to look at the image to realise that this is a brilliant car and just happens to be bullet proof too.

This particular Nissan 350Z has had some extensive work done on it as you will be able to make out from the specs below but it still carries the shape of the original car and that is what matters to fans, who have not quite summoned up enough courage to go out and buy for themselves.

Whatever anyone thinks of the Nissan 350Z, they would have to take a second look at this car, and maybe if they close enough to it, take a little look inside to what is going on in there. At the end of the day some people say that this is just a Nissan, well that maybe so but I would take this one over a whole choice of other cars, so what would choose, the Nissan 350Z or ?

I have to admit that I have never really been a fan of the Scion, that was until we started seeing them change into fantastic machine like this one owned by Mike Ma, the car although not totally transformed has taken on a different look. By taking on a Scion as a project proves that the owner loves a challenge and is not going to be bother about the purists that demand a Skyline or Integra for this job. However, something like the Scion needs careful consideration and a clear plan right through to the end of the project.

Obviously being given the car from the makers is a good incentive, in fact it means that the job is even harder now, because not only is there fans and media to please there is the firm that made the car in the first place to look out for. Who ever said that import car builders always like to take the easy way out, in fact if anything they about thing the hard way and it is shows in the finished product.

Clear Protection Film: 95% Light Transmission

Product Description

This Rvinyl Headlight Protection Film kits are designed to protect your vehicle”s headlamps from road debris, weather elements, salt and UV discoloration. Headlamp Protection Film kits are pre-cut and model specific and made from a pliable urethane adhesive backed film. Rvinyl kits apply as easily as a decal, but are repositionable during the application process using a wet application method and conform to your vehicle”s lights by using a heat source. If you have a hair dryer, you can install this product. Years of outdoor exposure degrade OEM lights, turn signals and fog lights. Scratches and UV radiation turn headlights yellow and milky-white over time, leading up to a 50% degradation in foot light candle output. Rvinyl headlight protection films prevents this and are non-protective tint film however does not provide a level of protection from significant scratches or UV radiation. 1 in 6 vehicles on the road will require headlight replacements. OEM composite lights cost in excess of $600.00 to replace. Rvinyl Protection kits may be removed with out damaging existing lights, increasing resale value and protecting leased vehicles. Rvinyl offers two types of clear protection film, a lite version designed to be installed by the average user and a professional version, which is five times thicker, and designed for professional installers. Both protect your headlights, but the processional version is specifically engineered for off-road use vehicles and race tracks.

Could this be the coolest Nissan 240SX in the country if not the world? If it isn’t then we would like to see the car that beats this wonderful machine from Dennis Som. As you plainly see the car is a convertible, but that is no ordinary hood on there because it is the Tsunami Silvia hood one of only two in the US made by DDrug.

Ordinarily the colour would not be top of the list for build, either as it is just too orange, but the longer that you at the car the better the body work looks. This is an orange machine that people like, if this colour was on a Neon or something similar the driver would be laughed at.

Naturally, this sort of job does not come cheap and it is fortunate that the owner has managed to get a nice amount of sponsors behind him, which is always going to help when you are planning to get a car to this sort of level.

Secret Weapon Intake (Nissan | 240SX | 91-94)

Product Description

The air filter can be totally taken apart and cleaned. The foam is denser and more thicker than the Dragon filter.

The velocity stank inside the air filter is a TRUE VELOCITY STACK. The Air filter has Ram Air capability, by hooking up the hose to the top of the air filter.

The intake has another Air Passage way inside the intake pipe to create a Air Fusion, imagine 2 different pathways of air inside the intake pipe, one air traveling in pathway #1 going 2 x faster than pathway #2. When the two different pathways of airflow meet at the end of the pipe they create a fusion effect which enhances the AIR SPEED of the by 3 times.

The Secret Weapon Intake Systems is an result of countless hours of testing and tuning of air intake velocity, Airmass and Airspeed for each vehicle application. The Result, an intake system that performs better than any Cold Air Intake, but with a Short Ram. It is possible by Weapon*R’s Patent Pending Speed Velocity theory, By creating a higher airspeed in the intake path you increase airmass and airspeed, which greatly increase horsepower.

This is possible by Creating two different paths of airflow, both flowing at different airspeeds, due to the tubing diameter in which the air is traveling. Now when the two different paths of air meet, they create a vacuum, which is where the airspeed starts to multiply, forcing more air into the engine at a higher rate, creating more horsepower.

The Secret Weapon Intake Systems are carefully CNC mendrel bent out of 6061 Aluminium, and then Hand Tig Welded in sections to ensure a constant balance in airflow, regulation in airspeed, positive seal and proper fittment. Each one of these intake systems are carefully tuned, by matching the engines displacement, air intake capacity and airspeed to the intake systems tube size,length and secondary pathway tubing diameters to maximize the full potential of the SECRET WEAPON INTAKE SYSTEM.

“Rvinyl window tint kits are made from high quality tint film manufactured by Llumar. Our film when properly installed will not fade, lose colour, turn purple, or bubble.

We use professional grade equipment in the manufacturing of your film kit, allowing for a precision and professional results in half the time it would take you to install film by the roll.

Although many sites claim their kits are easy to install, we recommend you review the installation procedures outlined to make sure our product meets your needs. Installation difficulty depends on the ability of the installer, the particular windows being tinted and the compound surface of the rear windshield as it will require heat shrinking for proper installation. Front and rear windows are generally relatively easy to tint as they rarely require heat shrinking.”

A Nissan Sentra from 2002, is not the sort of car that you expect to find at a show or race day, but when it has been worked on to the extent that this one has, then it definitely deserves to right up there with all of the other winners and some seriously deserving runner ups too.

This is one hell of a beautiful looking machine that hardly resembles the car that it used to be, it has had so much work done on it that apart from the body shell there is probably nothing on there that is original. Yet this is a car of extremes, from what started off as an average car has finished up looking like something the mind of a mechanical genius.

What is amazing is the interior, this is like nothing that any production car is going have, in fact the interior of this car is like something out of this world, with black, red and silver taking over the inside of this machine. It is so fantastic inside that would not want to drive it for the fear of getting finger prints on some of those surfaces.
