Phoenix Power Kits Out their Nissan 370z

May 23rd, 2009

Phoenix Power aren’t aero designers. They’re more than happy to take what they see working on the car and run with it. That is, they’ll tune the car but leave making it pretty up to the experts. In the case of their GT-R project it was a full Zele kit and for the Nissan 370z it’s BRANEW.

I bet you didn’t think the BRANEW kit could look this good or be seen on a “real” tuner’s project car, but here it is. Wearing BBS LM’s that Phoenix Power have proven to be quite partial to, it looks the business. These rims certainly look more suitable than the humongous BRANEW BW-101 22″ wheels we saw at Tokyo AutoSalon.

While popular at Tokyo AutoSalon in January the IMPUL 934S aero kit was certainly controversial in it’s design. IMPUL have gone back to the design phase and reworked the front end completely. The rear half bumper, side skirts and wing remain but the updated front bar is joined by a new front lip spoiler to complement.

Overall the look is better than ever.

Nissan Galleries Miss Fairlady Team – Why Don’t We Do This?

May 11th, 2009

If you’ve ever been to Japan as a Nissan fan you’ve more than likely stepped into a Nissan Gallery. Staffed almost entirely with young ladies who’s job it is to direct the masses of public around the display cars, answer questions and give demos every so often.

Outside of motor shows have you ever seen something similar outside Japan?

Rumor is out today that Nissan may be considering a hybrid setup for the 370z. Utilizing tech built for the Infiniti M range the 370z would be the worlds first hybrid sports car if so.

Possibly arriving for 2011 we’d say it’s unlikely to come to fruition but who knows.
