You might remember Nissan enthusiasts Dana and Thaad N and their ZCG-modified G35 and FX45. Dana has been spreading the word about us and her co-worker Brandon M wanted similar suspension upgrades to his own G35:
.
We installed Tokico D-spec shocks with Eibach springs and SPC camber kits
The new suspension provides a very subtle drop:
Now Brandon too can Enjoy the Ride. Stay tuned as he will be back to ZCG for more upgrades. Thanks for spreading the word Dana!

Congratulations to Scott Smith for winning the SPEC Z racing series with the GreenZ!
After earning his SCCA license Scott started competing in the SPEC Z series with his silver race car and eventually prepared the GreenZ to finish the season. Scott had a small team consisting of himself and his sidekicks Al and J. You could catch these three practicing at open track days like Thunderhill or Laguna Seca trying to dial the car in and find weak spots(see wheel bearing failure below!).
Here’s a video clip from a SPECZ race at Thunderhill:
Scott would like to thank Z Car Garage, William’s, CityTech, Evil Genius, NISMO and BFG. Great driving Scott, we are proud of you!
That’s right everyone, the Camaro is back and Enrique’s ’67 restoration has reached some important milestones: paint and drivetrain! In the picture above you are looking at the body panel reflection from the expertly applied paint by William of Williams Auto Body. Here are a few more teaser pics:
Kit T has a very clean silver Z33 that ZCG has worked on. Like most Z owners it is hard to leave a car completely stock, especially if modifications can improve the fun factor. Kit’s commuter car is this Nissan Versa and to spice things up on his commute we installed NISMO suspension and replaced the brake lines with SS pieces, followed by a brake bleed with Stoptech fluid:
Here are before/after pics of the struts and springs:

The change in ride height is barely perceptible but the ride itself is vastly improved over the stock, economy -minded setup. Stock vs NISMO:
Alberto R bought this pretty 300z Twin Turbo as a project car. He has been DIY’ing most of the car including the interior while ZCG has been lending a hand with the rest. The latest upgrade are these nice WedsSport SA67R lightweight wheels. We think they are a fantastic improvement over the G35 setup.
Stay tuned for more updates on Albert’s project Z32!
