350z First Track Event - Grip Attack #4

Pushed my Z to its limits at my first track day and was able to find what needs to be tweaked to make this car perform better. Was able to get some good footage of the event so here it is.
I found that I need to change my cooling, tyres and sway bars before I go to my next event. Then I can give feedback on whether these items are worth it.
If you have any questions use the comments below, Cheers.

Thanks mate will do 👍🏻

Good stuff man! Super fun on track, very competent platform. I'll be posting my first 350Z track video here in the next week or so as a follow up to my rebuild series.

[@ReubsModifications]

Yeah I loved tracking mine, really excited to make it handle better. I’ll check it out when you post 🤙🏻

[@chiksluvit]

What’s your tyre size and what width are you planning to upgrade it to?

[@ReubsModifications]

I’ve got 245/40/19 at the moment and plan to go as wide as I can without it handling uncomfortably and hopefully add some height to them too 👍🏻

[@chiksluvit]

@@ReubsModifications I’ve got square 370z 19’ rays rear wheels, fronts can go as wide as 275s with the 370z rear wheel setup. The rears can go to 275 without rolling the rear guards. I’m still not sure if I wanted to roll the rear guards and run 285s, but I suspect the right wheel width/ offset you can run as high as 305 width, albeit costly
Do you run staggered profile like stock? Since mines square it triggers the traction control a lot so it’s a bit annoying

[@ReubsModifications]

@@chiksluvit I run square 19x9.5 +15 and I have the ABS kick in every time I drive it. I haven’t been able to get a straight answer on why some people say it’s from running 19s. I’d like to try and fit high 200s but it depends on how much bludge there is. How wide are the 370 rims and how do they feel?

[@chiksluvit]

@@ReubsModifications the 370z rear wheels are 19x10 +30 so it can accomodate up to 285 fine, with 35 profile some tyres may bulge slightly and some may sit square depending on the tyre manufacturer.
The front tyres should ideally be 275 30 19 but I’ve got 275 35 on it, didn’t like the idea of going too low a profile, meaning I’d have to go at least 285 35 on the rear to get a bit profile staggering so it doesn’t upset the driving aid

[@chiksluvit]

And comfort wise they’re ok, I’ve got revalved bilsteins with 7kg rear spring and 8kg fronts
Btw I just remembered I’ve got increased rear track width since I’ve got 370z arms and shafts (longer). So if you go 370z wheel setup, 285s should still tuck the rear guard fine with 350z rear end without rolling guards
