The fabulous Nissan 350Z is a fantastic car even as it rolls off the assembly line. But for some people that is simply not enough they are going to want more from this car and as you would expect that is no problem because there is so much that can be done to make this car a racing machine to be reckoned with.
Yet this is the sort of car that you would expect to find just down at the track, which is true of course, this car can often be seen ripping the track up drag meetings and time attacks. However, there is somewhere else where this 350Z can found and that is on the road, yes the owner Frank Trapani can often be seen taking this silver/grey machine on the street.
The car is not quite finished currently it tops out at around 670 HP, which is good. But could there be just a little but more in there to play, the team think so and they will be looking at a 25 psi re-tune and a few other little tweaks will push this car right up to 750 HP now that is what you call power.
