Modified Nissan 350Z - One Take
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 ноя 2015
- The Nissan 350Z is about at rock bottom prices these days, which is probably why I get asked about them so often as platforms for tuner cars. They have some issues, but can be great fun when set up right.
Check out Matt's 350Z on WheelWell!

Thanks Matt, the video turned out great! It was a lot of fun meeting you and I appreciate the opportunity to come hang out!
+carbonjrk I appreciate it!
love the Z man and good luck with the rest of the build
+Stanton Getridge I appreciate it, thank you!
+Matthew Sharbatian are you armenian
+PapayaMan Yes, but born and raised in Texas.
One more 1-Take where the owner of the car is a nice, cool dude who knows what he's talking about.
Matt where do you find these people? One of the reasons why I like these 1-Takes is the owners. I could listen to most of them all day.
Oh and I love the Chris Harris impersonation.
We roll the dice every time. It's rare that I know anything about these people besides their name and their car. Most of the time people are very nice
Maybe the reason is that gearheads who know about their shit are generally much nicer than most people think.
And if they wouldn't know anything I doubt they would like to appear in your videos.
By the way if you'll ever come to Germany and want to do 1-Takes on the Autobahn I'd be the first to let you drive one of my cars.
+Jimmy the Saint car enthusiasts are a lot more understanding and friendly in person than most of the idiotic children you see online claiming to know about cars and flaming to be fair.
+Jimmy the Saint you can really tell by the build of the car if the owner really is a true gear head / tuner enthusiast. tasteful mods, clean platform, balanced, usually = cool owner... at least that's how these one takes turn out to be.
+TheSmokingTire agree with jimmy, imagine me coming in with my V6 camry, "hey so what have you donr to it?" "umm I changed the coolant, got new tires....new brake cylinders...yea" since people like me with stock cars know this will happen they wont contact you :D
Nothing beats the sound of a nicely tuned NA motor. Forced induction sounds cool but the pure high pitch engine noise is just musical.
Superchargers don't muffle the exhaust like turbos do.
+Z33NY superchargers whine
+Dacrazy-can Yes but they do nothing to directly mute the exhaust. And not all blowers whine if that's not your thing. Personally, I find supercharger whine to be like the perfect melody to the exhaust's harmony.
+Shea Samuels I love N/A motors. No forced induction matches the way they feel and sound and never will.
911 gt3 for life
hell yeah, anybody who owns a 350 knows how damn good that car is...
The G35's and 350z have always sounded amazing even in stock form the sound is no surprise
ya they are the best sounding v6 you can buy pretty much, people with v6 Mustang and v6 genesis coupe always try to replicate it but you can always tell the difference
+Robert Nugent I know I love the exhaust note of my 2006 g35 coupe lol no need to change it
+Carl Manney yes man the vq35s have their own signature sound. kind of fluttery.
+Robert Nugent Nissan? The reason the car sounds half way decent is because Nissan borrowed the engine from Renault. Basically every Japanese car that doesn't sound like a tin can full of bees borrows its engine from some European company.
+Carl Manney . I actually bought mine [fully loaded '06] based almost purely on the startup note... this many years later, I still drive with the windows down [when possible] just to hear that exhaust music. Just under 47,000 miles!
Perfect example of a Z owner. Clean car, colourful personality, really engages in conversation. Matt's picking up some great people and cars for these videos!
Revitalyzed that was two years ago. Z drivers now are what Honda owners where in the fast and the furious days. The new ricers that think they can beat anything on the road. Just because they see a fully gutted tin can Z pugz beating a few v8s.
Perfect example of an enthusiast who knows his car and has pride in it and is willing to talk about it. There’s assholes in every car demographic.
that trumpeting VQ note is one of the most beautiful things about these cars...the noise they produce is addicting and unique.
lol, the fly-by when the guy was trying to say something isn't great timing. "Did you get the understeer sorted?" "Myeah, so what we did was....NNNNNYEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWW"
Oh. Great. That was informative...
I was like jeeesus fuck thats loud
+WindmillStalker lmao my thoughts exactly
+WindmillStalker The flyby went right in his pause. You literally miss nothing. He says "It has a little bit of oversteer now, but I never push it past its limit." It's not like I put the shot over some great, epic moment where he solves all 350Z suspension design issues.....
TheSmokingTire
It wasn't a big deal, I just thought it was mostly funny. Still though, seemed a bit awkward on the timing.
hahahahaha
350Z = Instant like even before watching!
+Rottensteam Nah 370 makes the 350 irrelevant
+Rottensteam do you prefer the 350 to the 370 though?
I mean the 370s are more powerful
+Taxi Driver If I should choose I would probarbly go with the 370, but there's just something more iconic over the 350. I know that the 370 is a better car, but for me it would still be a tough choice.
Rottensteam yeah, it is just like when I prefer the C6 Corvette over the C7, its kinda unjustifiable though, but it looks simpler and better in some way in my eyes, still, I know that the c7 z06 is much better than the c7 z06
+Taxi Driver Only in stock form ;). And I absolutely prefer the handling and appearance of the 350Z better than the 370Z -- especially in a roadster version!!
That V6 howl sounds so good!
I am actually loving the back and forth between Matt and the owner. Better then a LOT of One Takes where the owner is all quiet.
I can't say much--If I ever get a chance for a one take I'd probably be kinda quiet, or awkward, but, either way, this is nice to listen too--and the car sounds great.
350 has the best sounding V6 I've ever heard.
VQ with a nice exhaust setup is ear porn.
wow, there's actually a 2-way conversation
the fact that the owner started from the brakes and suspension tuning which lasted a year shows his maturity and real world logic.adding the kindness and humbleness , I honestly hope he may enjoy his ride the best way possible !
Man just an awesome car . The sound alone makes me excited.. A car well done .. kudos to the tuner/owner. awesome. Loved hearing him speak about figuring out the alignment ... that's hard work.
Excellent one take! Love the 350Z chassis; it feels so planted. Owner seems like a great guy, and knows his stuff. 👍
Matt, you're a good man. U really made this guys day by complement in him in his modest build. I could see it in his face when you'd made a complement. Well done, sir👍🏻
The 350Z is an iconic car. Thanks for the video, Matt. Looks like you really enjoyed it.
The owner is reall passionate and knows his stuff, awesome car too btw
Matt, loved the one takes ever since the series started. Few months back I started to kind of back down from them, started to seem dull, but the most recent ones are so good! Regained enthusiasm for them! Owners seem very nice and camera friendly, which I must admit, is important and adds a lot to the video. Also, keep up with the outdoor flybys and generally with great content. Respect!
Thanks for the recent string of drive bys! I'm sure I wasn't the only one requesting these in the one takes. It's nice to hear how these builds sounds from the outside.
everyone says this car is a dog which is unfortunate because they're relatively inexpensive and all the ingredients are there for a good car I'm glad I can get Matt's view on one of these!
Love the All Blacks jersey you're still rocking from New Zealand. We just won the rugby world cup!
This is EASILY my favorite 350Z build. Absolutely stunning in person!
finally some love for the Z! I DD an '03
Z looks nice! Sounds amazing, perfect exhaust!
LOVE THE FLYBYS MATT, GOOD ADDITION TO THE SHOW
...fly-bys are just the right touch of minimal input and maximum gains...hope they're not running you broke because we appreciate them being just enough to break the monotony...keep em coming...
The fly-by's are nice, Matt. Having the owner peel-out as well is also a cool touch that doesn't require as much effort as well.
GJ! Enjoyed this vid.
Damn I love this 350z. Always enjoyed them but I really like how this one is done. Great car Matt!
This Z drives very nice, and the sound is just amazing!
Im glad that you got back to the canyons
Wow. I did not expect this car to sound this good!
Rpf1 is such a good looking wheel
That Chris Harris impression though :D.
Super clean Z. Really digging the outros!
Do have to say its the nicest sounding car you've one-taked in a while. Just a clean smooth sound with out any funny business. Tastefully clean Z.
I appreciate it!
Simple, well balanced, sounds great! I dig it!
Yes, finally a one take with a Z!
Love it! Watched this again now as I just bought a 2007 Nissan 350z roadster touring with a MT, only 62,000 miles/just shy of 100,000kms. Basically stock with a Magnaflow catback. Excited to get could and some other suspension upgrades. A little heavier as a roadster but I love it!
Sick build, going back to watch all the Z videos since I’m so excited for the upcoming one lol
OMG I know this car! I used to see him all the time at the meets at Quickly Irvine! Love this car
We need (and love) the members of the More Money Than Brains Club, partly to deliver gorgeous money no object builds, partly to move the goal posts of what we think can be done.
But: The majority of us are poor people, doing our best with what we have. This 350 didn't look like it belonged to the budget car group. Besides the exhaust which i don't like partly because it's to loud for me, partly because i'm SO over the 35,5" monster exhaust look, i LOVE how clean it is and the colour really works for me. Great looking car, and SO much respect to the owner for doing things in the right order. ..and spending the time to do it right. Major kudos :)
That's an 07 or 08, which has the HR engine with a 7500 rpm redline. They sound REALLY good, and have significantly more power up top than the DE engine. The feedback through the shifter is one of my favorite parts of the 350z (I've owned 2). Upgrading the suspension, tires, and brakes make it a track weapon. That car has to be heaven on those roads.
Loving the flyby shots guys!
Nice to finally see a Z. Glad you liked it :)
I just bought one. I'm about to go put the plates on it and drive it for the first time. Very excited to see what this car can do.
What a nice guy. You can see how excited he is :)
Great guest! Car sounds great as well.
Great guest with an awesome var!
I met this guy up at Angeles Crest once. Very cool guy. Awesome video
Wooo! Finally some Z action. Hope you get a manual G37/G35 sedan to drive one day.
I like the addition of the fly-bys
I think Matt was pleasantly surprised with this Z because it has the HR motor.. HUGE difference from the DE motors
good to see you rocking the all blacks jacket!
Pretty nice. Clean. I like the exhaust note.
NA 6 cylinder. Couldn't concentrate for that exhaust note. Now that is a real raw sound!
Enjoying this vids.
I had a 2007 350z for 7 years. Absolutely loved unit and still miss it :/
Very well done... that is a very clean Z, it's not to dramatic... simplicity goes a long way to me.
The drone is real! Still an awesome car!
That's a nice setup, good mix of increasing the handling from stock but still retaining driveability. As for the drone, I looked at a number of setups for my G35, and without a resonator they all seem to drone, but adding one doesn't affect flow enough, unless you're concerned about a couple hp.
Finally a VQ platform its long overdue, I can't believe a 350z or G35 hasn't been featured sooner
Matt, the top part of this road is the best. Sometimes there is bad rocks on the uphilll lane if the rock removal truck hasnt come recently. I DH skate it with my buds all the time and run it with my mk6 GTi. We're serious dh skaters who stay in our lane, haul ass, slide to slow down as we enter the corners.
that sound of HR engine is beautiful
gotta love that VQ. The intake sound in the cabin is great. Not as much the exhaust from the outside though
Every video you put out you have amazing heel to toe man, I've been working on mine this whole year, and the fact that you get it down in every car you get in is amazing much respect brother much love! By the way are the 350z pedals close together like the 300 pedals?
wooooo been waiting for a 350z on here
looked silky smooth that road!! nice car also, need them roads in my life!!!!!!!!
Really enjoyed this one!
1:52 Damn, that chirp on the first fly-by though! That's some commitment
The 350Z really comes alive as a drivers' car with two things: 1) more front negative camber, and 2) a proper LSD. Other suspension/power/brake work can add benefits as well but these two things I think are crucial for drivers like us.
Very nicely done car, Matt. Perfect combination street car and toy.
Thank you!
True lol my vsld is going bad as we speak
great exhaust sound from modified Nissan 350 z.
Man that Z sounds like an RB26. Nice exhaust!
Kind of does bro, mixed with a r35 engine
Sounds just like my G35. Gotta love those Nissan engines!
Nissan did and outstanding job with the exhaust note on these VQs. Best sounding V6 engine!
+Christian Araujo Don't say that on an Alfa V6 video. Those Busso fanboys think their underpowered pos is the best V6 ever :0)
Wonderful owner and nice ride.
Love the sound but I think I would go with a dual exhaust to tone it down a little bit. 350Z is my next car, been hunting for the right one.
+Eric Timmer Good luck man :)
+Eric Timmer Its hard to find a good one thats well taken care of. The interior quality isnt the best and doesn't hold up well but the engines seem to be bulletproof
+Eric Timmer Having a dual exhaust doesn't necessarily mean it will be quieter. His is really not bad, my Z has an agency power Y back with a Stillen Y pipe and Z1 test pipes and is obnoxious as all hell. After a motordyne Y and Art pipes it should sound much better though.
+hazerkitten Quit hating maybe that's all some of us can afford. The Hrs aren't exactly cheap if you look around I think the DE is perfectly fine. Sure it might be less powerful but it's also 200lbs lighter and puts down higher tq numbers. Fucking hate people like you always shitting on older models, were comparing the same car with some improvements over the years not a TT vs N/A.
Mord Fustang also, not to fanboy but, HR parts are SOOOO much more expensive than DE parts and every HR owner can agree.
I was always a fan of the trumpet sound
one of the few v6 sounds I enjoy
Beautiful video, beautiful car, beautiful driving roads;
Thank you!
reminds me of my 350z, and i agree with u 100% on the understeer and the shifter knob vibration lol
That exhaust note man
Good job on this vid, love the Z's look. Matt has similarities to Cain Velasquez from UFC..
finnaly a 350z! these things are beautiful ass machines..one of the best sounding 6 cylinders to date.
Thats cause of that VQ35HR motor as well! Get those cats out of there you’ll livin’ the f%#%* up buddy! My HR did, and an Oil Catch can and clean out that entire mani and throttle bodies 🏎💨 Love the build & love the convo.
Man... I subbed! I don't have a Z but I know I will in the future!
That's gotta be the nicest sounding VQ I've ever heard.
Thank you!
Still your best one take
Repingthe All Blacks ! great to see, hello from NZ :)
sweet jacket Matt, represent.
I rate the All Blacks shirt Matt, you've got good taste ;)
Yess finally a 350z!
Nice car. Seems like he has his base pretty sorted.
Sounds awesome
wish there was empty roads like that in the uk
There are plenty in the country side.
+Cornwall1888 was going to ask where in the uk your from. the name speaks for itself. I'm from the north east and there's going right up into Scotland or the lakes but the road in the lakes are chocablocka
g4rr377 I'm Scottish, empty roads shouldn't be too hard to find where you are.
+Cornwall1888 cool. anywhere you would suggest? i like doing the A69 up to Edinburgh from durham and heading up the forest tracks from Kielder forest in Northumberland
g4rr377 a708 Moffat to Selkirk a701 Moffat to Edinburgh

Bringing back memories of my 2008 HR Track edition 350z. I chased that clunk for six months. New whiteline diff and subframe bushings, new Exedy HD clutch and flywheel, new drive shafts and re-shimed the diff for backlash 3 times. Nobody could solve it. Sold it in the end. Though with just bold on it was proper fast! I bought another MX5 instead.
They just chatter it's every single Z
+Smash Da Gas not chatter... that was terrible with the single mass flywheel though. Actual clunk in the drivetrain. You can hear it a second after matt changes gears. It was actually worse when not pushing it. The owner thinks it's stuffed rear subframe bushings... hopefully that is the case for his car.
As well as being a nice looking, handling and sounding car, the owner seems to be a nice bloke too!
One of my favorite cars I've owned. Since you have an HR I'd recommend a 4.08 gear swap. Really seemed to wake mine up.
