This video captures a personal best lap of 1:44.777 at Podium Club CW, achieved on lap 10 during a Saturday session around 3:30 PM. The driver notes that despite some issues with a new shifter preventing them from pushing the car to its absolute limit, there are still areas for improvement, particularly in braking points at the end of straights.
The vehicle is a 2008 Nissan 350Z (TT4) with approximately 276 wheel horsepower and weighing around 3400 lbs, with 112,000 miles on the odometer. It features extensive modifications for track performance, including Nismo Intakes, PPE Long Tube Headers, and a Tomei Extreme Ti Exhaust with an OEM muffler. Cooling is managed by a Koyo Radiator, and the drivetrain benefits from a Tomei Trax 1.5-way LSD and a Z1 4.08 Final Drive Ratio, paired with a Coolerworx shifter.
Suspension upgrades include KW Club Sport Coilovers, SPL Adjustable Camber and Caster arms (front and rear), and Hotchkiss Adjustable Swaybars (front and rear), while retaining stock toe arms. The car runs on old Maxxis RC-1 275/35/18 tires. Braking is enhanced with an ABS delete, OEM brake booster, in-car bias valve, 370Z Akebono Sport Calipers, Hawk DTC-60 pads (front) with DBA two-piece slotted rotors, and Hawk Blue pads (rear) on DBA one-piece slotted rotors, all using Motul 700 Brake Fluid.
Safety modifications include a Future Fab premium 8-point roll cage, a Fire Suppression System, and a Battery Kill Switch. The cockpit is equipped with Defi Gauges. The driver is committed to continuing their pursuit of speed with further car changes.
