Having had the chance to check out the Z car show in Eastern Ontario today, with participants from across North America, I was truly humbled as I walked back to what now seemed like my very plain Jane sedan. Awesome restorations, awesome mods, and amazing owners with some serious addictions.

The highlight for me was getting a chance to SIT in the new Z concept car. There are NOOOOOOOOOo words to describe the feeling. Spotted one Sterling Silver SE from Maryland...the rest..pure ZZZZZZZZZ's This aint a subculture this was a full blown CULT!

 

Cult? It's a whole new religion bro. I'm a follower..

; )

 

...when they rolled out the Z-God, Mr. K, the disciples lined up waiting for a chance to have their plastic Z cars autographed by him. Walking Z-zombies......
I truly had a great time.

The Z concept car tweaks all the raw emotions and sensations in a person that draws like minded followers to the Maxima..only ten- fold in terms of pure "I must have this car" salivation factor

 

Some of the Zs at the convention are making 2X as much power as your Maxima

 

Only twice as much? Pheh. One at the UNON meet was pushing 535 RWHP and there are a few I can think of pushing more like 600 at the wheels.

There were some 600-700HP TT Z there which were just sick! Some nice 300 running NOS as well..

 

There should've been a black one owned by Peter I-Can't-Spell-His-Last-Name pushing 597 RWHP at the show.

 

Was it the guy from Quebec? I saw his dynos pushing close to 600hp at the wheels.

 

Yep, probably the same guy. Volk AV3 wheels, Stillen GTZ-R, side skirts, rear valence, and Kaminari rear spoiler, blue color scheme inside the engine and interior, front mount intercooler, "Primespeed" sticker across the windshield
