SSR Releases New Fitment for 370Z

Our sales guy Sean who is our 370Z guru, came across this release from SSR. 370Z fans have been upset since SSR discountinued the Type F and Type C wheels. Many Z fans, Sean included, loved the weightlessness and classic styling of the Type C wheels. Type F held the same legacy, so when they announced the discontinuation, tears were shed all over the Z community. But now, the day has come that all Z fans, everywhere have been waiting for. The arrival of the GTV series. The top pick for Z’s right now is the GTV03, there are more to come, but if you’re looking for an aesthetic upgrade the GTV03′s are it!

Because the wheels are coming straight from Japan, they are special order only right now. If you’re interested in some, email Sean@vividracing.com (ext. 266). The other AMAZING part Sean stumbled upon were the Japanese descriptions of the wheels. The translations are amazing! They are before some of the pictures below.

In other news, if you’re thinking about buying some product soon, you might think about waiting until Black Friday. We will be giving a $500 gift card away in our Vivid Racing Black Friday Lottery! You must call in on Black Friday to be entered in the lottery. More details to come, just though we’d hype you up now!

Make Your Muscle Car more like Iron Man and Less like Schwarzenegger

The C7 Corvette makes you dream of a world with no stop signs and endless winding roads. When you buy a corvette you’re not concerned with practicality. You’re number one concern is speed, handling and giving your corvette it’s own personality. Pfadt Racing lives by the rule, “Start with something, and make it better!” It’s from that idea that their new line of C7 headers was born. Obviously the C7 breaks the mold for Corvettes into a new generation of domestic demons. You see many muscle cars moving away from a Arnold Schwarzenegger, raw muscle mentality; to a Tony Stark, Iron Man persona. You want all the power, but with less weight, and more gadgets.

The Pfadt Tri-Y Stainless Steel Header is a union between the need for power and the need for torque. Luck for all you C7 owners, Pfadt offers both. Here’s how they describe their header,

“ Pfadt Tri-Y Headers deliver power you can feel. There’s a reason that almost every race car runs a Tri-Y Header – race cars need the maximum power and torque available to be competitive and to win. We deliver those advantages to your C7 Corvette like it deserves, as well as a lot of cool aesthetic touches that you didn’t even know you wanted.”

Pfadt headers are shipping now. Get the power you deserve today!  Send this blog to your significant other as a hint to what you want this holiday season! Check out the sound comparison clips below. Let us know what you think of the difference in the comment section below or on Facebook, Twitter @vividracingcom, or Instagram.

Stay Grounded at Airplane Speeds

With SEMA right around the corner, APR Performance is one of the companies we can’t wait to see. Since 2002 they have been debut ground breaking aero parts for the most popular makes and models at SEMA. Although we love the aesthetic enhancements APR adds, we admire that APR’s primary focus,  is how their parts are going to help the car aerodynamically. APR Performance, not only adds performance value to your car, they give you a great look too. This is their newest part for the Nissan GT-R. Their Front Air Dam allows your GT-R to stay grounded, at airplane speeds. Here’s what they had to say about their new front Air Dam,

“Underbody components such as front air dams, under-trays, and rear diffusers are essential for maximizing aerodynamic performance. This Front Air Dam includes two integrated brake cooling ducts (2.5″ inner diameter). These cooling ducts can be used to attach cooling hoses (not included) that lead to the brake system for maximum braking consistency on the track. This Front Air Dam also utilizes a built-in aerodynamic splitter design that creates a high-pressure region of air atop the protruding surface, further reducing lift and increasing net downforce.”

The APR Performance Front Air Dam integrates with the factory front bumper to:

- Reduce lift
- Increase front-end stability
- Improve high-speed cornering grip

Make your GT-R more efficient HERE. Shop all APR Performance parts HERE.

Allow Your Car to Perform at Maximum Level with Aeromotive Fuel Pump

Aeromotive describes their commitment to excellence in the following statement.

“To us, passion is defined by three generations of performance. Aeromotive is the by-product from generations of blood, sweat and tears that has shaped our knowledge and experience. Our commitment to develop the pinnacle of performance products comes from our history, our real world experiences and our passion. That’s why you will see us at the track, driving our cars, testing our products, learning from our peers and living the industry we love.”

That’s why when they designed the Aeromotive 340 Stealth Fuel Pump they wanted to make it the most effective fuel pump on the market. The Aeromotive 340 is a compact, lightweight pump that bolts into many existing hanger assemblies. What sets the 340 Stealth Pump apart is its superior flow throughout a wide pressure range. Compared to other popular aftermarket pumps, at 40 psi the 340 boasts more than 340 lph. That’s over 30% more flow. This pump is ideal for applications requiring more flow while retaining the factory lines and mounting provisions available in the Original Equipment (O.E.) configuration. The 340 is also perfect for use as a universal replacement for applications that require more flow to support forced air power adders such as turbo and supercharged applications.

If you want your vehicle to be performing at it’s full potential a Aeromotive fuel pump will help you get there. We have two new applications. One for the Lexus GS300 91-00 and the other for Supra 84-92. Shop all make/model applications HERE.

Wald Releases Lexus LX570 Body Kit to Envy

Don’t let your wife blend in, in the sea of soccer moms! Give her the (completely unselfish) gift of the baddest looking SUV on the road! The 2013 Lexus LX570 is already equipped with the latest in family friendly technology and safety gear. Equipped with built-in distraction devices, also known as 7.0-inch LCD screens with DVD/CD player, dual-source capability, A/V input jacks, wireless remote and wireless headphones, this thing is made for family life.

However, what this thing advances in, in technology, it lacks in exterior design. The LX570 might be a transformer on the inside, but on the outside, it screams soccer mom! And your, we mean your wife’s, reputation can’t have that! That’s where Wald comes in. Wald is the Rolls Royce of body kits. They aren’t your, “Make something for everyone,” kind of company. They specialize in designing parts for only the most influential of vehicles. Wald body kits are what other body kits aspire to be, but I digress.

Wald just released a full body kit, including exhaust, for the Lexus LX570. You can buy the whole shabang as a kit, or upgrade piece by piece individually. Check out the pictures below, and give your wife that early Christmas present you’ve, we mean, she’s been wanting!

First Fuel Surge Tank of It"s Kind

If you’re a weekend racer, or just drive like you’re a racer, you know the importance of having a surge tank. For those of you that are less familiar, the surge tank ensures that your fuel rail can keep circulating the high pressure fuel throughout your engine, by eliminating the possibility of air pockets. This is because the main fuel tank is no longer feeding the fuel rail directly, instead the surge tank is the mediator between the fuel main and the fuel rail. When you’re driving aggressively, your fuel has a tendency to shift. In turn, creating air pockets that starve your engine. So if you’re going to drive aggressively, a surge tank is imperative to high performance driving.

Radium Engineering has pioneered a new fuel surge tank. Here is what they have to say about their new product,

“Radium Engineering is proud to announce a groundbreaking new fuel surge tank that simplifies installation, eliminates potential leaks, and reduces system overall cost. A Fuel Surge Tank is an effective tool for preventing fuel starvation due to fuel slosh, and also makes for an easy way to upgrade the fuel pump flow capacity without modifying the stock fuel tank. Radium Engineering is the leader in fuel surge tank technology and is proud to announce a new addition to their comprehensive fuel surge tank line.”

Below is a video that better explains how fuel surge tank is beneficial and how Radium Engineering has brought the technology to a new level!
