Take a stroll down the beverage aisle of your local grocery store and the walls are certain to be packed with 100's of different drinks trying to grab your attention with flashy decals and fancy-shaped bottles. Everything from triple shot coffees to quadruple-veg'd blends, the beverage aisle is just as diverse as the new car market. Jeremy, from the ForgedPerformance.com aisle chose the Nissan 350Z, and it's not easy to argue that this tall glass of horsepower and style is the juice-Ziest of them all.

Straight to the punch, this Z packs some serious energy with the Vortech supercharger and intercooler. A Kinetix SSV intake manifold was installed along with Unorthodox Racing pulleys, DC Sport headers, Crawford high-flow cats, and Stillen dual exhaust. The car is now putting down 422 rwp and 350 torque. How's that for a drink that gives you wings? And speaking of wings…

A fulfilling juice can't go without an elaborate looking label and bottle, so Jeremy outfitted his Z with a Do-Luck AeroWivern body kit, Kamanari rear wing, AUT Design eyelines and quite a few other details that really make this Z stand out from the rest. As if the shaved lines of the 350Z weren't enough to grab your eyeballs, the Le Mans Sunset Orange two-toned with Magnetic Black paint seals the deal. Touching the ground at all four corners are Maya's 20" STM wheels. Big wheels mean big rubbers, so 285 Pilot Sport 2's were fitted in the rear, and 255's in the front. Behind the wheels you'll find a set of Tein Basic Coilovers to give the car the desired stance and stability. And as mentioned before; open it up and the doors rise to the heavens thanks to the Lambo kit from Vertical Doors.
Opening the doors only makes you thirst for more. The interior is filled with more ICE than an Atlanta Braves ballpark Coca Cola. Colorstorm LED lights up the interior (and exterior) with a choice of more than just one color. Why stick with one color when Colorstorm provides the whole gamut with their kit? Not only will your thirst be quenched, but your eardrums will be treated to the multiple marriages of an Alpine head unit, MB Quart components, a JL audio sub, and JL Audio amplifiers. The fit and finish of the system is so clean it nearly seems like an option from the 350Z catalog. Hiding behind the passenger seat is the XBOX 360 that drove parents nuts past Christmas.

Jeremy made a wise choice to satisfy his thirst, and with his eye for added style and power, it has landed him on the top shelf with the famous Team ECI. The Z is not going out of style anytime soon, but even when the new cars are making their debut, and grabbing all the attention, Jeremy is sure to take his car to the next level and keep it 100% fresh squeezed.
