    In the wheel arch, right next to the diff and ECU. Also right next to the front tail lights, duh.

    Yeah, the intake system isn't the most ideal setup!

    Whilst I said I would like to have that nissan in a Z32 flavour - I didnt say I wanted to get one!

    I was just wondering if anyone has ever done one yet as I would like some more unique pics to my expanded Z32 library.

    where would it fit - theres some bulges on other Z bonnets that are rather very / extremely large - so the same spot I guess - would'nt be too different to them and there humungous bonnets - wont be street legal here in oz I guess but theres other places you could

    crikey - there was even that guy that had monster turbo sitting outside on top of his bonnet that was pictured here some time ago - lol

    too hard

    the only way i could see of making it all fit would be to ditch the air con and mount the supercharger in that location.. but still the piping would be a bitch let alone setting it up so they work together well and give a nice power curve.

    Hey Champ !

    a twin charged Z

    a quad turbocharged Z

    a supercharged Z

    any other unusual configured motor in a Z - ie V12 etc
    (I have enough V8 pics)



    and......
    would really love more / better pics of the Bonneville Z than what I have!!
    (really love that car....and the actual bumper bar diffuser!)

    Why black beast does thankyou not come up under your name next to the quote - everyone else has one except you??? If you dont know I will ask forum admin why. A beer for you if I ever catch up with you sometime for your help on my teins! Job is being done now thanks to you.


    Raheen - check the various twincharged cars out there - they actually have some low supercharge configurations available out there that look really really low slim and flat and this would reduce the bulge required in the bonnet.

    I actually thought that twincharging would be a stupid idea at first limited by the least capable unit- but apparently doing this reduces the misgivings of both chargers allowing more HP and Torque. Seems these are getting more traction in the world in various configurations - ref:
