TRUST President Masaru Ikeda said, “At the official Creditor’s Meeting on March 11th at the Superior Court of Tokyo, TRUST’s reorganization plan was overwhelmingly approved. We are aware there are companies in virtually every industry facing financial challenges, and are fortunate that through a combination of sound leadership, perseverance and the much appreciated cooperation and support from our customers and partners, TRUST was able to complete its reorganization in such a short time. On behalf of TRUST Co., LTD, I want to express my deepest appreciation for all of the years of continued support from our customers. We truly value our relationships and look forward to continuing them for many years to come.”

Stated GReddy Performance Product’s Kenji Sumino, “Now that TRUST’s reorganization plan has been approved, GReddy Performance Products is working hard to follow suit in the United States. We are very pleased with the outcome of TRUST’s restructuring efforts and are optimistic and confident that GReddy will successfully emerge from Chapter 11 in the next couple of month as a proven leader in the high performance automotive parts industry”

Throughout the pendency of TRUST’s reorganization, there has been no disruption in the supply of innovative products to GReddy Performance Products Inc., USA. GReddy continues to stock an excellent and complete inventory of products, which has allowed GReddy to maintain a 90% fill rate on orders, a number hardly matched in today’s changing marketplace.

American tuner South Side Performance has created a turbo kit capable of boosting the Nissan GT-R up to 820 horsepower. The upgrade is made to fit on Nissan’s stock parts facilitating quality of installation.

If true, this could bring the 0-60mph time down from 3.2 seconds to somewhere between the Bugatti Veyron and the Hennessey Venom 800TT (2.9 s and 2.4 s). South Side Performance uses Garrett ball bearing water cooled turbo chargers, an upgraded actuator, high pressure aluminum compressor wheel, and new turbine wheel.

The company claims their choice in turbo is because of the large amount of power Garrett turbos produce, even at low RPMs. Thus, these new turbos deliver a healthy amount of additional horsepower from the moment you hit the accelerator, on up to the red line. Anybody looking to race for pink slips and evade police chases would want to get the South Side Performance GTR820RR Turbo Upgrade Kit.

Anybody else might find that kind of power to be unnecessary. When exchanging the GT-R stock turbo, the price of this kit comes to $6,499. Installation takes about a week.

Meisterschaft; the most advanced product line for premium euro vehicles.

What kinds of upgrades make sense for your Nissan? What companies offer performance accessories? Where do you start tuning your Altima, Z or Xterra? Here are some areas that offer easy upgradability and heightened performance.

Exhaust – One of the first areas in which you can make immediate improvements is to the exhaust. While Nissan offers more performance than some other automakers, the OEM exhaust is somewhat lacking. Bosal makes high quality exhaust pipes that will give your ride that sweet sound and much-sought after performance boost. Start with a header and move on down the line. Don’t settle for simply replacing your muffler; a full custom exhaust system offers great benefits.

Cold Air Intakes – A cold air intake will add performance and change the sound of your engine, as well. Injen makes high quality intakes that will fit your vehicle. A cold air intake provides cool, dense air directly to your engine. This means that you get more combustion per stroke, giving you more horsepower. In addition, installing a cold air intake is a simple matter that you can accomplish on your own.

Custom Wheels – While a nice set of oversized wheels will make your ride stand out, they can also add performance to your ride. Aluminum wheels offer less weight (which equals more available power). In addition, wider rims will offer better grip on the road. Combine custom rims with a set of performance tires for road gripping power and performance. Konig and Velox are just two of the companies that provide high quality aftermarket wheels that will make your ride stand out.

Custom Ignition System – Add performance spark plugs and wires to increase your fuel burn rate. More fire equates to more power, especially when you combine a custom ignition system with a cold air intake. When you use aftermarket plugs and wires, you are able to burn more fuel per stroke, with less fuel being wasted or dumped into the exhaust.
