The Fast & Furious trilogy has a lot to answer for. Targetted at petrol heads worldwide, it has
inspired literaly 100's of 1000's of people in tuning their Japanese sports cars and helped create a
wave of tuner businesses worldwide! The Veilside Combat Version 3 Wide Bodykit is a positively
mouth watering design. Now world famous as a result of being the main bad guy's drift star in Fast
& Furious 3 Tokyo Drift, this car is without doubt the world's best known modified 350Z currently
available for sale. The Veilside 350Z Version 3 bodykit was originally styled by Hironao
Yokomaku. Newera's involvement with Veilside began when the Fortune RX-7 was being styled, a
car we fell in love with ever since first laying eyes on the clay model Yokomaku San was creating
in his workshop...! After filming an exclusive interview, Newera went on to send the very first
Fortune RX-7 show car to the Paris Tuning Show - then back to Japan. Subsequently through
development of business with Veilside, Newera Imports became involved in the supply of
Japanese cars for the 3rd movie, Tokyo Drift, liaising directly between Universal Studios,
Hollywood and Japan's premier tuners to create special cars to be featured in the film. The car
offered here is one of two surviving genuine Drift King 350Z's that were built by Veilside & sent to
Hollywood for filming during 2005-2006. As our Fast, East & Extreme DVD on
www.neweramedia.com shows, Veilside's Yokomaku San is no stranger to tuning cars for massive
performance, having been one of the Japanese pioneers of 8 second quarter mile GT-R's and
Supras in the 1990's.
This is the only high tune 350Z made by Veilside for the film (430 bhp / 420 lb ft) & the actual car
that Takashi (Brian Lee) - known as DK (Drift King) owned and drifted in the movie. You'll
remember this car perfectly drifted up a car park ramp in the first scenes and in various other parts

in the film. Full documentation to prove it's passage to and from the USA for filming is held on file
- for one lucky owner to keep, as proof his investment is 100% genuine.
As you walk up to this car, you can't help but be gobsmacked by Yokomaku San's tallents in
styling & tuning. This car has incredible presence. It takes any pre-conceptions of awe inspiring
styling you may have, rips them apart and drops your jaw to the ground as you walk around it
drooling. Having just completed a complete bodywork restoration to crazy levels of perfection, the
body work and accompanying artwork is absolutely flawless. In quest for perfection, Newera
commissioned an entire specialist respray with many layers followed by deep coats of laquer to
create a stunning level of finish before laying complete new high-quality decals of original one-off
Veilside design. The view of the front of the car is fabulously evil. If you ever saw this car in your
rear view mirror you'd want to pull in just to see it go by... Veilside front bumper's centre is filled
entirely by a massive APS intercooler, which feeds cooled air from the twin turbos to the intake.
The wide arches accentuated by deep skirts and stunning deep dish wheels certainly aren't shy &
offer a hint of the supercar slaying ability lurking under the hood. Veilside's carbon blade rear
spoiler & bumper give more hints of the performance available with the lower diffuser housing a
large bore twin exit Magnaflow full stainless exhaust system. The wheels chosen for the Drift King
350Z are none other than 19" Andrew Premier Series Racing Evolution 5's. These are a massive
11" wide at the rear & 9.5" at the front, to provide for an impressive deep-dish effect. The total
value of Veilside genuine bodykit is £5,000. Wheels (Now discontinued) cost a stagering £3,500
new (Without tyres). The paintjob & sticker set a further £5,500. This is a £14K exterior remake
before we even go into the interior or tuning work done on the car (Which cost in excess of this
figure).
Having starred as Drift King's car in the movie and being the only high power version built, it's no
surprise to find the interior has been subject to equally serious treatment. Out went the stock 350Z
seats replaced by genuine FIA approved Sparco Evo racing buckets with composite shells & a
Sparco suede & leather steering wheel. Sparco 4 point harnesses are also included to hold the
occupants in position. A Cusco Safety 21 eleven point roll cage provides D1 Street Legal levels of
occupant protection, whilst original option equipment includes a full Bose sound system with CD
multichanger, TV and navigation (Conversion required to work in Europe), Climate Control A/C
and all usual high specification of a full GT spec. model 350Z. Note the brakes are Brembo items
at each corner too. Neatly installed at the rear is a NOS polished alloy bottle. With more than
enough power available this is currently this is not connected - But could easily be added if tuning
work is desired by the new owner. There's also a line lock system to enable perfect doughnuts /
burnouts to be performed on a six-pence when provoked.

As you lift the lightweight carbon hood you're greeted by a bespoke carbon engine cover
combined with a very neat power installation. Performance modifications include an APS (Air
Power Systems) Twin turbo conversion which is a complete package giving an increase in power
from 280 to 430 bhp & 420 lb ft. The APS conversion is complete and very well executed. Cold air
drawn from behind the vents on the front bumper is first filtered by twin high flow filters then fed to
each turbo via polished stainless steel TIG welded piping and high pressure silicone hose. Twin
Garrett water cooled turbos mated to bespoke cast iron exhaust manifolds compress the air then
feed it via APS's DR series Bar & Plate front mount intercooler to the intake. At the intake manifold
fuel is fed to the combustion chambers of the 3.5 litre 24 valve Variable Valve Timing V6 Engine
via an uprated fuel pump, regulator and larger than std. injectors. The APS system even includes
a bespoke injector loom, to avoid the need for cutting into the original wiring. Engine control is via
the APS custom mapped plugs in management system. There's a high capacity replacement alloy
oil pan with oil return ports from each turbo. APS even added a race spec high volume twin vent
blow off valve, to keep the turbos spinning as the throttle's released - ready for quick response as
power's re-applied. The exhaust system fitted is a stainless steel Magnaflow 2.5 inch system with
dual exit 4 inch polished tips. To put the power down squarely for drifting, there's a Nismo 2 plate
clutch rated to 600 bhp as well as a Nismo 2 way differential. Suspension is uprated with slightly
firmer than standard progressive springs. TRC, SLIP & ABS are currently permanently switched
off (So the car can be drifted at will) but this can easily be returned to standard spec. (Via the
OBD-II port) as preferred.
During our brief drives of this car in Tokyo we've always found this car to draw crowds. People in
other cars alongside wind down their windows to make excited comments and ask about the car,
pedestrians stop in their tracks to gawp, and mobile phones are hurriedly pulled out everywhere it
goes - to get a shot of the car before it's gone. A car every petrol head would love to
experience.Despite it's wild looks, it's easy to drive normally. The clutch is progressive,
suspension is comfortable and it behaves impeccably in traffic. A sign of well executed mapping
by APS. In any gear it's got bags of torque. From around 2,500 rpm the turbos come to life and
give an ever increasing shove that pins you in your seat all the way to the redline. Release the
throttle to change gear and you can hear the blow off valve fluttering. If provoked it will hold lurid
slides around corners, but now being a perfect show car - once it was painted & completed we
drove it as if we were chaufeuring miss Daisy herself in this car. Make no mistake! This is a
stunning one off show car that can be used on the road, or if you're business savy you could
charge for it's rental display at shows and exhibitions, advertisements, etc. to help recoup your
investment or promote your business. There's no doubt in years to come this car will be worth

(1). Starting with your inquiry, we provide a quote or e-mail communication, so that
we are clear on just what you are after. We ask for detailed information from you, so
we can provide an accurate quotation from the beginning. If you are inquiring about a
car from stock, steps (2) and (4) are not required.
(2). When sourcing to order, our quotation is based on your requirements. As long as
your budget is sufficient for the car youre after & the car is likely to be available, we
will be prepared to find the car you order, or better. Remember: even if you budget
too much, it doesnt matter. We operate a system of supplying the best car we can
find, plus a set fee of £900. If we can buy your car for a low price, then you make the
corresponding saving.
(3). When you are ready to proceed, we ask for a deposit (& completed order form, if
applicable). The deposit is usually £1,000. If you want a car worth over £10K OTR,
then the deposit is £1,500. The deposit is fully refundable without question, should
you for any reason need to cancel before a car is bought on your behalf. If you are
reserving a car from stock the deposit is refundable less costs and time incurred
provided you cancel 4 working days before shipment from Japan.
(4). Miguel, our buyer keeps you informed via e-mail periodically whilst searching
for your car. Sometimes it can take weeks, even months to find the right car. In
addition to Miguel attending the major Tokyo auctions daily, we have buyers
searching daily throughout Japan for the car you want. No news simply means we
havent found it yet. We dont buy the first car which comes along. It must meet or
exceed your requirements whilst not costing more than the OTR price we agreed,
though it frequently costs less.
(5). As soon as available, we will e-mail you up to 30 detailed photographs, showing
all aspects of your car. We also include a detailed description. Of course, total OTR
price is known at this stage, so we let you know. Cars are insured from the time
theyre bought, to the time they are completed & collected by you in UK.
(6). Usually, boats are available every 2-3 weeks, from Japan to UK (Southampton).

We arrange for your car to be shipped on the first vessel available. Around the time
the car is shipped, we ask for the second instalment. Typically this is approximately
60% of the cars OTR total cost. Note that the car we supply to you is fully insured at
all times prior to you collecting it.
(7) We arrange booking of the SVA test in advance - shortly after the car departs, so
that the car can be tested as soon as possible upon arrival to UK. We also inform our
UK agent of your full contact details and information on everything which needs doing,
to make sure the car wil be presented in beautiful condition.
(8). Shipping takes 5 weeks. Around 2 weeks before arrival, we ask you for the final
instalment, to cover Import duties, VAT, shipping, UK conversions, testing,
registraton etc.
(9). Before the car arrives, we arrange customs clearance, etc. so the car neednt
spend un-necessary time waiting at the docks upon arrival. It usually takes 3-4 days
for cars to be unloaded and cleared by UK customs.
(10). The car is sent from Southampton to our UK agents premises in Canterbury
aboard a car transporter. Upon arrival there, it is SVA converted, derestricted, SVA
tested & MOTd (If applicable).
All minor cosmetic work required (e.g. bumper scratches) is carried out. The car is
fully valetted just before you collect it.
(11). The car comes with 6 months road tax and is fully registered in your name as
the first UK keeper. If you have a suitable private number plate youd like to go on the
car, we can also arrange this, provided you have a DVLA retention certificate.
