8/17/17- Little bit of an update!



What's up guys the Z is back and looking mighty fine if I do say so myself:
Let's start out with the Mechanical bits. One major problem I had at the track was traction. When the car had grip it was great, but as soon as all that weight shifted over the car was incredibly tail happy. As A daily driver, I didn't want to strip it down and remove all the interior stuff so i decided to beef up the suspension and tires. Now this may seem like overkill, but yes those are DOT Approved Semi Slicks. They sit real snug on the new 18x10 Rotiform ROC wheels. I wanted maximum grip for when I up the power!



Now suspension bits were overhauled too. The Old, worn out bushings were replaced with a combination if Nismo and Whiteline Suspension bushings. The Springs and shocks have been improved as well, Opting for KW's 32-way adjustible Coilover system. The Brakes were left untouched for now, as I will need to get a BBK that will clear the wheels. Finally we see the new Aero Kit installed. Ings+1 hooked me up with their 4pc kit with front splitter, While a Top Secret Hood and wing were sourced via Japan Parts service (thanks guys!) Custom Twin Shotgun tips were fabricated to finish the look, now all she needs is paint!



Balance: V$4,030
Bodykit & exhaust: V$2,050
wheels & tires: V$1,500
new balance: V$480
