A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

It's been awhile since I've updated the status of Project 350Z street, but this sleek Redline coupe still brings a smile to my face every time I start her up! Part of that is because a friend sold me his Stillen true duel exhaust awhile back. This stainless steel beauty looks like twin scuba tanks and raises the octave level of my VQ35DE to new heights! Going through tunnels, I love shutting off the stereo and opening both windows. Dropping down two gears and going WOT fills the Z with beautiful sound that reverberates off the walls. Sure, I may be easily amused, but like most Z owners I look forward to driving this car every chance I get!

Have any updated pix to share?

I'd like to see a G37 build (although we do have the NICOclub project G37)

I went to the website and tried to select the car from the project list and it seems the link is messed up (looks like a coding problem).

Thanks for the heads-up! I'll see if we can get the link fixed.

nice

How do you like the Quarts? Personally I thought Rockford cheapened them up after their purchase. I miss the original German ones

Sorry to be so late in responding to your question. I think the DSE separates were built before the takeover and they're incredibly clear sonic performers. Even in a sportscar, my music takes on such a vivid presence that makes my eardrums perk right up. But it's the highs that I enjoy the most, and for a system with no subwoofer, these MBQs rock hard!
