I always thought that “The Z ” it’s a car with big potential, and that its excellent chassis would allow to handle more horses than those supplied as standard.
Mom Nissan thinking the same bring the car over the years from 280 hp to 313 of the last version …… but still not enough for somebody…
The target for this Z was to “give her” 100 + horses, maintaining the drivability and reliability for road use, all of those trying to keep the progressive power erogation of the factory car! (In fact, the owner not only uses it as a track day car, but it goes also to work every day
Following major changes:
Rotrex supercharger with centrifugal compressor C38-81 and 100mm pulley , GTM intercooler, 600cc injectors, Engine oil radiator, Walbro fuel pump, clutch + flywheel OS Giken twin disk, CAT back exhaust injen, resonated testpipe, D2 Adjustable Suspension. DS2500 brake pads and steel brake lines.
Custom mapping on dyno, with the possibility to switch between 5 maps (dedicated to different quality of gasolines) through the commands of the steering wheel
The Z has clearly reached the target! set of facts has demonstrated its effectiveness and reliability, both on the circuits:
Mugello, and the circuit of Franciacorta, where they were put to whip its current 440 hp.
As technical notes I must say that I was completely satisfied by the behavior of the Rotrex, its thermodynamic efficiency thanx to the centrifugal type is comparable to the best of the latest generation turbo efficiency ,with a range between 66/78%.
Another point in favor of the Rotrex it’s his noiseless operation, due largely to the excellent mechanical design of the drive and by the excellent integral lubrification system, the car sounds as a normallly aspirated one, nothing to do with most of the compressors on market, (those ones normally add a noise similar to a swarm of giant mosquitoes trapped under the hood, Mini Cooper S it’s an example)
