No new updates, everything postponed until I return from Spain, I will go on Saturday, and will not be back for two weeks, at least, my orders should be delivered when I get back.

I made an order with Joe@zspeed for OS Giken CMAK kit, yes, they are available now. Also, Z1 shipped most of my parts with exception for 4 items, which shouldn't be an issue to install all other parts.

Update

That was super quick from Joe, I received my CMAK on Saturday before traveling, kudos to him, very helpful guy, I was insisiting on him for the past weeks on when he will finish OS specific kit.

Also my brother received my Z1 shipment today. Photos will follow when I have time.

Now I can say all parts are in place, time for some serious work.

It is hitting me hard :icon18::icon18: without considering any fancy bodykits.

Forgot to include this, Zspeed CMAK for OS Giken clutches

http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1517958394

Also, I have RJM HD CMC and CJM fuel pump hat :yum: such a beautiful piece, shame it will be hidden, even my mechanic is impressed with it.

So after I posted the photos, I have a little time to summarize the work that is in progress.

1- Transmission:
OS Giken HTR2CD (more hardcore than STR but less than TR and TS if I remember correctly).
Zspeed CMAK CSC delete
RJM HD CMC
Fresh oil and clutch fluid (MT85 & SRF)

2- Differential:
Also OS Giken
Nismo Final drive ratio 3.9
SPL diff bushings
Z1 high capacity diff cover
Z1 subframe collars
All new bearings, sleeves, seals
OS Oil

3- Brakes and hubs:
All axles new Z1 rotors ring
Front Carbotech XP10 and XP8 rear
All axles new wheel hubs
ARP extended studs
10mm rear spacers (to get front +22 offset and rear +12)
And open end lug nuts for the extended studs

4- MOAR Cooling:
Mishimoto Aluminum Radiator
Infiniti G37 thermostats (10 degree less than 370z)
Z1 hoses
Nissan blue antifreeze + Mocool

5- Others:
New fuel pump + CJM hat
SuperPRO Urethane Bushes - front lower arm - rear control arm - rear trailing arm.
Fresh Castrol Edge 0w40
Nismo oil filter
Fresh Motul ATF for power steering
and finally installed my R888R on ZE40 :yum:

will take the chance to clean air intake filters. Also, will get new corner balance.


Currently, the transmission has been finished, the diff looked like near finish when I passed by, the hubs-brakes were in progress as well as fuel pump, rest are pending. I hope tomorrow or Thursday the car will be ready.


This was the big upgrade I was hoping to do during last summer, but the accident delayed all plans, nevertheless, it is happening now and I am very excited to see the results.

Those sexy wheels :happydance: welcome back on the car

http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1518020951

And I am still able to amaze my workshop with new parts :rofl2: one of my friends and a very old member who sold his 370z a long time ago, was looking in his store and found these, called me and I snapped them

http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1518020951

Rear subframe and diff still down, needed shims and luckily found them at dealer. Also, rear sway bar will get back on the car, as I feel current stagger setup needs them badly.

http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1518020951

Those are finished, I know they are only studs but they looks awesome :icon17:

http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1518020951

Radiator in place as well

http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1518020951

Took the chance to clean the filters.

http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1518020951

I think I need new hoses, found them cracked in some places and have been taped as a quick fix.

http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1518020951


The bad news, there is only 5 trackdays left this season, one is tomorrow that I cannot participate in (maybe will use the srt or use a friend car) and four autox events, not sure if they will add more events later on. I need to finish it quickly and break in the clutch.
