Ever since Nissan first talked about bringing back the Z-car at the 1999 North American International Auto Show, sports-car fans have been wondering just how good it will be, and it certainly hasn't disappointed. Nissan's 350Z originally started off
life as a concept model, and just like its predecessors the new 350Z shows that impressively high levels of performance can be had without breaking the bank. Combining a gorgeous exterior, a high performance V6 engine, a superb rear wheel drive transmission and a very |

modest price tag, the 350Z has set a new standard for sports cars.
Our 350Z was specially imported from Japan in December 2002, and was the first in the country. In standard form, the 350Z is truly beautiful and has an impressive spec to match that has set the standard for other to follow. |

| Project Aims |
|
| The Nissan 350Z is a visually stunning car and Nemesis has taken full advantage of this by enhancing the 350Z's looks for use as a show car. All ready infamous for appearing at shows, this 350Z leaves a lasting impact on all that see it. Of course, being the high performance vehicle that it is, we just couldn't resist making several performance modifications as well. |

Imported in December 2002 by Nemesis in Japanese FT specification.
The first order of business was to make the already unique looking 350Z even more impressive. The Nemesis 350Z wears a VeilSide version III body kit, which consists of a new front bumper, FRP bonnet with vents and air scoop, side skirts, rear bumper, full carbon rear spoiler and aero mirrors. After fitting the kit, a full respray was also carried out in our own Nemesis Smoke Silver.
The standard wheels on the 350Z were replaced with huge VeilSide 20 inch Baccarat wheels (9x20in front, 10x20in rear) to give it a more aggressive profile and to allow the fitment of larger brake discs. The huge arches of the 350Z are completely filled with low profile 255/30 ZR20 Toyo rubber.
Stopping power has been enhanced with the addition of high performance DBA (Disc Brake Australia ) brake discs to the front and rear. Featuring a two piece design, the discs are cross drilled and grooved to provide maximum braking performance. The standard Brembo callipers still remain.
Whilst the 350Z has incredible handling as standard, our work ethic at Nemesis is that there's always room for improvement on any standard car. We fitted a HKS Hyper Max pro kit to the 350Z, a fully adjustable coilover suspension system with pillowball top mounts. The cornering ability of the 350Z has been now been improved upon greatly.
Exterior modifications are never enough of course, so we turned our attention to the already impressive V6 that lives under the 350Z's bonnet. The standard exhaust system was replaced with a Titanium Teardrop system from VeilSide, giving a thunderous exhaust note. The exhaust manifold was also replaced with a Titanium VeilSide manifold.
Finally, the interior of the 350Z has seen some extensive modification also.
A full leather re-trim has been carried out, along with an impressive ICE set-up. All Kenwood components have been installed including 6.5 inch touch screen LCD, DVD, VCD, CDR, TV Dolby, DTS. DVD navigation 5.1 surround processor. Active centre speaker unit, 2 way, dual mag, 35w max. Perf series 5 channel amp, 1,200 max, D class sub channel, VCL. 300mm DB series sub, 1,200 max. 2 x 170mm 2 way speakers, 200w dual mag. |
