Engine:

At the heart of Proximity Motorsport’s Nissan 370z is a formidable powerplant. It features a Stillen V3 supercharger, Stillen intake manifold, and PPE long tube headers to maximize performance. Additional upgrades include a SOHO Motorsport air-to-air front mount intercooler, Mishimoto oil cooler kit, Boundary Engineering billet oil pump, Supertech valve springs, titanium retainers, and an ATI balancer.

ECU:

Managing the engine’s performance is the Emtron KV8 wire-in ECU, offering precise control and advanced tuning capabilities. The CAN keypad provides convenient access for adjustments and monitoring. Syltech sensors for oil pressure, oil temperature, water temperature, air temperature, MAP pressure, boost pressure, and flex fuel ensure vital data is accurately measured.

Fuel System:

A high-performance fuel system ensures optimal fuel delivery. Radium fuel rails, Xspurt XS 1500cc injectors, and a Radium in tank surge tank provide ample fuel supply. Two Walbro 520LPH pumps and a DW300 lift pump maintain consistent fuel flow. The Radium FPR-D (Fuel Pressure Regulator-Damper) ensures proper fuel pressure regulation.

Transmission:

The Proximity Motorsport 370z is equipped with an 8HP70 transmission for smooth and efficient gear shifts. The Turbolamik TCU (Transmission Control Unit) further enhances the transmission’s performance. The vehicle features a DCT sequential shifter, OEM 370z paddle shifters, a Domiworks adaptor kit, and a 3.5″ cromoly one-piece tailshaft.

Suspension:

The Proximity Motorsport 370z is equipped with suspension upgrades for exceptional handling and adjustability. Shockworks coilovers provide excellent control, while Gktech front and rear control arms, super lock kit, steering shaft spacer, and cross member relocation enhance performance. Various rear suspension components from Gktech, along with solid bushings from Whiteline and Gktech, improve stability and responsiveness.
