Hello world! My name is Kenny Lam and I live in Melbourne, Australia. This is the story of my journey into the world of track days and club sprints accompanied by my 2006 Nissan 350Z, affectionately known as GorillaZ. In October 2006, I took delivery of this black 350Z. I had always wanted a 350Z ever since I saw the concept version way back in the
My name is Jeremy and I'm writing this from Wichita, Kansas. This is my 2003 Nissan 350Z and I've had her for just over 2 years now. Signed the Bill of Sale on January 26, 2008 and haven't looked back since. Ever since I was 4-5 years old I have always been fascinated and engrossed with cars. It all started with my uncles who owned them
We are beginning to come to the close of a month which many of you have aptly named "stancehunters," "flushhunters," or "ricehunters." This month, we've seen a divide between what Rod has called the automotive athletes (the performance-minded) and the fashionistas (the style-centric folk). This is a car that could split
VIP Style... Drift Style... Hella Flush (?) style... Lux Style... Time Attack Style... JDM Style... These are all different labels which have been thrown around the US import car scene in the past few years.

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Kazuhiko “Smoky” Nagata for many years now. Nagata-san is of course the founder of the legendary tuning shop, Top Secret. Going beyond that, he is also a bit of a worldwide motorsports celebrity, in fact he is a rather unique example of a motorsports star. Not many people can claim celebrity driver
After reading Mike's post about the Team Orange cars and their converted EVO's and Impreza's, I started thinking about a well known Z33 which was converted the other way around, from rwd to awd: this JUN-built Hyper Lemon 350Z R. The rumor is, it was built for someone who lives in Hong Kong and wanted to use it as a Time Attack car, but
Just spotted this 350Z with what looks like to be DPE ST-10 wheels. I have been told that white is the color of 2009, so this 350Z is already ahead of its time. I always love the contrast on a white car together with black wheels. -Jeroen Willemsen
Instead of just mashing everything together in a series of posts, I'm going to divide my TAS coverage up into separate stories that cover the various styles or types of cars. I thought I'd start off with the Nissan Z, since the new Z34 was one of the most anticipated cars at this year's show. The new Z has only been on sale for around month
Those of you who've been with Speedhunters since the beginning of the site may remember the coverage we did from the Vancouver edition of the Driven to Perform car show. There was one car at DTP which created a lot of interest: the Alex Yao built Nissan 420Z TT. People wanted to see more and I'm happy to say we've finally found some time
