Looking forward to seeing after you get you hands on it and give it some TLC.

If I can get it into my driveway safely

I knew the amuse front was going to make it about 1/2" lower but I forgot about the added length from the bumper as well as the splitter.


Ill have to, as they say "Send it" I suppose...at .5mph and at a nice HARD angle.

Ill be getting a proper photoshoot later in the month as well.

thanks man...You're probably the only person thats seen me come full circle in the Z community, since 2007 or so. Ive got some really good photoshoot pics coming, Ill be dropping all over here, this weekend.

Yeah though, this is probably my lowest car Ive ever had. Literally make it over speed bumps by 1-2mm. I just let the bolts on the underside, drag. Theyll flatten eventually, I guess.

I wish there was a lot more down the road. Like a turbo set up or full interior redo. This may be where I stop, after I get the hood installed next month and a wrap put on a few months from now.

Thanks a lot for saying that.

I love it, even your pics are on point! This thread delivers!

It's so cool to follow you now on your third build, I loved your Z33 but now this one is even more badass. I would totally be happy with what you have and not even wrap it, the black totally pops.

So many kind words, starting all the way back in 2008! Thanks Waiz, Ive always appreciated it.

Just think, I havent even touched the interior gone FI, not sure I will with this one either.

I cant help but fall in love with the deep burgundy/ wine color vinyl. The black kinda hides some of the lines I really want to see. I agree about the pics though, the guy that did them always delivers the goods!

I would stay N/A and just enjoy the car. I just think once you go FI you are always chasing reliability issues no matter how good a kit you get.

I think the black really makes the kit pop, I would just keep it since your paint is in such good condition

Hood finally got put on the car a few days ago!

The fitment was almost a 10/10. The only issue is the washer fluid hardware. Ill need to do a little editing to those and epoxy them into the openings. The hood comes with all the necessary holes for installing everything you need though.

Last thing youll see from me is an update with the car wrapped in March/ April.
