Mine’s 370Z Receives Volk G2 and Carbon Fiber
Mine’s, a popular tuner manufacturer in Japan, continues to lead the way with the development of the latest Nissan 370Z. When we last heard from them, they were flogging their 370Z around Fuji Speedway, testing new tires and suspension. Now we see that they have added a few carbon fiber upgrades to the front lip and rear spoiler, as well as a fresh set of the new Volk G2 wheels. As an authorized distributor of Mine’s, Injected Performance promises to keep interested buyers updated on the latest pricing and availability of these new parts.
Specs on the new 20″ Volk G2 wheels pictured are as follows.
- Front: 20×9.0 +25
- Rear: 20×10.0 +30
The tires are Bridgestone RE050 in 255/285 sizing. We noticed they used the all-new (and more aggressive) RE-11 on the stock 19″ wheels, so we can assume that the RE-11 will probably not be offered in 20″ sizing yet. We look forward to the release of the RE-11 in the US to replace the very fast Bridgestone RE01R.

Will It Blend? Nissan GTR
If you haven’t seen the popular “Will It Blend?” videos on Youtube, I highly recommend checking more of them out. In a genious marketing strategy for their Blendtec blender, they ask whether or not certain household items can be blended. Whether it’s an Iphone, golf balls, or a Wii remote - they have no limits. Over the weekend I came across this episode featuring the new Nissan GTR. Enjoy!
Nissan GTRs Tested at Road Atlanta
Earlier this week, Freedom Autosport hosted a small and exclusive track day at Road Atlanta in order to begin testing a few products on their Nissan GTR. Sharing the track was our friend Will in his Carbotech and Hoosier outfitted GTR and Sharif of Forged Performance in his new GTR. With no more than 10 cars being run at any given time throughout the day, it allowed the guys to make plenty of fine tuning adjustments and play around a little bit through the corners. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time we’ve seen three GTRs be able to play on track like this together in the US. Thanks to Sharif and Derek on NAGTROC for the pictures and video!
