The Nissan 350Z car was built specifically for drifting competitions. The first step taken was to upgrade the motor, Nissan’s popular 3.5 liter V6, with forged components (such as JE pistons/rings, Eagle connecting rods, etc) capable of handling their target horsepower. With the help of two of Garrett’s finest turbos and AEM’s top of the line engine management products, the power is bumped from 250 to 450 wheel hp. Some of the products featured by AEM are: their universal engine management system, fuel pressure regulator, wideband O2 sensor, along with a set of Bosch 500cc/min fuel injectors. All of these fuel management modifications help provide the greater need for fuel to balance the added air provided by the Garrett twins. In the suspension department, the AEM 350z sports a custom Tokico coil-over suspension with a combination of JIC and Battle Version suspension links. These suspension components are the reason as to why Foust’s car slides smoothly, with no visible body roll whatsoever.
