Max has worked on cars since high school. His automotive obsession started with a clean white S13 hatch, then a very nice NA Z32, a G35 sedan and now this silver 350 Zed with a great story behind it.
Max got the itch for a Z33 after enjoying his G35 sedan for awhile. Enter Josiah, who was looking for a G35 sedan. Josiah is the cousin of Matt(owner of this GTM G37) and also owner of a super clean 60k mile 350z with a potent APS Twin Turbo drivetrain from Enrique’s old Z. A deal was made and Max ended up with the silver, boosted Z and Josiah got the G35 sedan…everyone wins!
The APS kit was the most powerful twin turbo setup when it was introduced years ago and continues to satisfy. Limited MAF and injector upgrades compatible with the kit make it not as tuning-friendly as the current aftermarket setups out there but at ZCG we always find a way to make more power!
Using a GTM MAF, Aeromotive 340 fuel pump and 600cc injectors we retuned the Z for more boost:
Max’s Z now makes 466hp and 443tq to the wheels compared to 355hp/372tq before the upgrades/tuning! Enjoy the boost Max and thanks to Josiah and Matt for keeping Z’s in the family!

“The World’s Fastest Electric Racing Car” is here! Remember the Juke-powered Deltawing? Nissan is back with a similar wildly-shaped race car now with full electric motivation.

SoCal GT-R Cruise 3: Starts at 6:45 am Saturday at Cars and Coffee
Saturday, June 22, 2013
6:45am
Round 3! We are going to meet directly at Cars & Coffee on the top level of the Structure this time. We’ll have an insane photo shoot lined up on PCH which is about 5 miles from C&C around 8am. Once we’re satisfied there, we’ll cruise down to Vista, CA (if you’re interested in the full trek) for the HRE Open House. I really want to have as many as possible at C&C and the photo op in Laguna. We had 40 cars the first time, 52 on Invasion II and the goal is 75 for III.
For more information please visit GTRLife.com and to view pics from the past GT-R invasion go HERE.
We are only 1 week away! Come join us on June 26, 2013 at Sonoma/Infineon Raceway. We have a large group of cars planning to go so don’t miss out!
If you would like to caravan up from the South Bay meet at ZCarGarage at 1:30pm, 2pm departure!
All the information you need about the track and racing itself is located HERE

We have been taking care of Carlton’s 350z for a long time and he recently needed to replace worn brakes. Instead of the costlier OEM rotors/pads/lines we installed a Stoptech Sport Kit:
The kit consists of slotted rotors, stainless braided brake lines and performance pads. This is a fantastic alternative to the OEM parts and perfect for the demanding Z-car owner who enjoys”spirited” driving. If your Z is up for a brake service and you don’t want to spring for a full aftermarket caliper big-brake kit, consider the Stoptech Sport Kit!
