Someone at school has a 350Z with "Fairlady" badging...can anyone explain this (sorry, I'm a Nissan noob).

japan's 350's are called fairlady z, while the US spec is called 350z

Yep....USDM 350Z/300ZX=JDM Fairlady Z (with a few differences, of course)

^^^ Agreed. I had a 91 Twin Twurbo 300 zx. It's funny how they call it a Fairlady. Never really got it but i still love the z's.

wow...so this kid got the 350 from japan? wow

I know the kid has the greddy TT upgrade and is boosting 10 psi

no, his is silver...I just talked to him for a little bit after seeing the car in the parking lot...as he was pulling away I saw the badging

350z fairlady's only cost $29.99...that's cheaper than the baseline 350z

let me go pick one up right now...

lol if I only had that kind of money, it's such a beautiful car and there are so many parts out there for it...greddy has the sickest 350z I've ever seen...and then there are the drift z's

nice rs

the most pathetic thing is there are people who are uninformed enough that you could pass it off as an rs

(I shouldn't talk, because I don't know if this kid bought a badge or had his imported...I'll ask next time I see him, after finding out what the differences are lol)

actually the greddy tt is the crappiest tt kit for the Z

soon as the US "skyline" comes to america the Z is being sold for one

a crappy TT kit...isn't that an oxymoron?

the install was clean as fluck...why do you think it's crappy? I've heard some good things about all of them.

When he puts a TT kit on it then he can call it a Fairlady

 
Rep Power: 0

errr...I said he had the greddy one, among other greddy mods

e-manage, e-01, exhaust, etc. etc. etc.

no problem, I do it all the time

besides, you just upped my post count plus 2...one showing you your error and one saying it's ok...now if I only didn't point it out, I could get away with sneaky little post whoring like this

I fear AMG is somewhere in the distance getting ready to kill me...speaking of which AMG you'll be glad to know I just got my new credit card in and someone explained to me how to get premium membership...you know what I'm signing up for as we speak

i got a blue 350z for 26, but it was only a model

 
Rep Power: 0

at first glance, I thought you meant 26,000 and I was thinking, hey, probably picked up a used one. after I hit third gear and my brain kicked in and I read the rest of the post, I slapped myself

 
Rep Power: 349

crappy as in bad welds on the mainfold, extremely hard install which requires removal of alot of parts which all other tt kits do not require..

best kit = aps tt kit.. only 8500 bucks... i already put my 10% down on it so when they ship ill be one of the first ones

 
Rep Power: 0

^^oh, never heard of those criticisms before...I'll ask him how well his went. I believe he said that he didn't use the manny from the kit. interesting...

 
Rep Power: 349

if he didnt use the manifolds from the kit that probably solved his problems.... also ask him where he got his new manifolds from

will do. he's in the parking lot next to where I take classes, I think he's there to work out because I saw him coming from the rec. I don't know when I'll see him next, but I'll be sure to post back if I do. he said something about he was considering an "aero" kit for the car...it was already dropped and has black "gunmetal" rims with a chrome lip...it looks tight, nice and clean, no stickers
