Bought A harness and the eyebolts / clips to go with it. This way it wont be done ghetto, and should pass any and all tech inspections. Pictures will be added once they arrive

Not Z Related, but it sort of is. Incase the Z ever crashes and burns at the track, i know ill walk away (hopefully), if there is a fire

Never hurts to send them an email or give them a call!

Probably have a easier time than me, your Z is already built up.

Big.. BIG Install day, for only a single day in a borrowed shop.

http://i68.tinypic.com/2q0k6qu.jpg

Front:

Got the Z1 34 Row Oil Cooler installed.
ZSpeed Aluminum Shroud
Extended Studs
Z1 2 Peice Rotors + Lines
Sport Front Calipers
SPL Tie Rods
Megan Racing FUCA
PowerTrix Coils

Rear:
PowerTrix Coils
SPL Camber Arms
SPC Toe Bolts


There was a lot that didnt get done, because either the part failed, like the Sport rear calipers.. So i now have agressive front brakes with worn out DD rear brakes.

The exhaust and smaller maintance things got left out due to time constraints. Started at 11am, got done at midnight, then a 3hr drive home.

So i want to thank a fellow forum member, Eagle, for helping me all day getting it installed.

Theres still a lot more to do, but for now just gotta get the eye balled camber fixed, and little things over time.:icon17:

I cant see it already haha.

So much left to do, so little time ( and money ) to do it.

Gonna buy all the bolt ons / drop in parts i can before the day comes custom fabrication with the help of others begins.

LOL, I got a couple of thing for you to consider. Get the Z1 brake cylinder brace it does add for better feel under braking. Also, you will need something for fuel starve. I have the Z1 anti-fuel starvation kit and it has work without fail. I ran my fuel content down to 2 dots and twice and 1 dot once without issue this weekend at the track.

I have the brake cylinder brace already, just didnt get a chance to install it haha.

The fuel starve is something i needs the moneyz for. Hopefully Corner 3 will have the CJM Tophat in stock soon, and then ill either get the RRP or the Z1 Kit.

I also have a SS Clutch line and better fluid :D

Bucket + Harness!
 
RPW Shipment showed up last night. Mocked up how well my seat fit me with the harnesses in place. Its so comfortable, which is kind of amazing.

I made sure to get a seat that actually fit me rather well, so unlike when i drive others peoples cars it was amazing.

I went G-Force Harnesses with all the necessary hardware, Eye-bolts, the 4x4 Steel backing plates, and got the changeable clips on the harnesses themselves so it would make putting them in / taking them out easier.

This is really becoming my #FinanicalMistake now :rolleyes:

Right on and good move to do the top hat before you it fails. Mine failed the last session that I was going to run at Auto Club last summer.

Haaahhh.. Mine has already failed. I live that no fuel gauge and CEL life as a result :rofl2:

Well,

Did Y-Back exhaust, courtesy of ISR Performance. Thing roars and makes the gurgle and crackle noises

Installed the JDM Foglight. Courtesy of forum member Eagle. Looks much nicer than the smoked one on a black car.

Changed the spark plugs, boy were they black.. Car runs much better now.

Did a throttle body bypass since my hoses were rotted and leaking.

Installed the Cipher Auto harness bar. Thing should be renamed to the GhetooAuto harness bar. Thing had the worst instructions for something Ive ever seen. And was a total bitch to get in.

No pictures sadly. Phone did a factory reset the night of so i lost all the pictures i took :/
