The Easter Sale is here at Tarmac Sportz, we have up to 30% off selected products. 

We are getting busy with deals here at Tarmac Sportz, we have put more brands than ever in our Black Friday sales with upto 35% off selected products. Make sure you keep checking back to see an updated listed when more deals are added. 

One of the most common questions we get asked it what tyre sizes should people run on their Nissan 350z and 370Z's, so we thought we would make a guide. 

Lets start with 350z's, for the standard OEM Rays wheels the recommended tyre sizes are as follows:

Fronts - 225/45/R18 - 18x8J Wheel
Rears - 245/45/R18 - 18x8.5J Wheel

You can also drop the profiles on the 18" tyres if you wanted to run a tyre with a thinner sidewall. For this we recommend dropping the profiles on the front and rear from 45 to 40.

If you are looking to upgrade to 19" wheels to fill your arches you are better dropping the profiles of the tyres to get a nice fit without comprimising the quality of the ride, and wont encounter any arch clearence issues. For the perfect fit we have always found 9.5J front wheels and 10.5J rears fit nicely with the correct offsets.

Coming soon, ODIN SUS is the all-new entry level air suspension brand from the team at AirREX Air Suspension. This all new brand is competitively positioned amongst other entry level brands. ODIN SUS Carries over from AirREX the company ethos of high-quality materials & ultra-high performance Air Suspension Strut Kits. The AirREX brand remains as the companies premium air suspension range.

The kits will only include the specific sturts and shocks allowing you to put it what ever management you want. This will allow more customisability and can be more cost effective depending on what you want to build. Putting it with your own management will mean you can have it cheaper and on a manual set up or can spend the extra money on something like the Airlift 3P.

The New Toyota Supra is quickly becoming a very popular car and everyone wants to do upgrades so companies have been developing all new parts.

APR Performance have been leveling up the looks with all new lip and spoilers kits in sexy carbon fibre

Milltek Sport, HKS and more with Exhausts.

The New GR86 has just had its UK price released and we are pleasantly surprised. They are due to be retailed around the £29,999 mark which means that they are more affordable than most cars of a similar calibre.

We are impressed with its looks and look forward to see what its performance is like and what potential the engine has for forced induction again. 

Along side this Toyota have realised photos of the new GR Yaris 

Hi All

So you have just purchased a lovely 370z Nismo, you drive it for the first time and put your foot down expecting to hear all the great sounds a V6 VQ37HR Engine can produce..... then your smile changes as you realise its as quiet as an electric car. Yes the exhaust fitted from factory is a bit underwhelming and sounds a bit meh........ Not to worry thats where we come in !!

The exhaust set up on a 370z Nismo is totally different to 370z GT. Some exhausts fit some don't. If unsure contact us as we have tried a few.

Catalytic convertors remain the same between both models so you can purchase any that say 370z.

Exhausts that are this style with individual cans at the rear end don't tend
