I've been a busy beaver the last few days.
-Swirlpots with AN bungs have been welded on.
-Ground down some aluminum inside the intake.
-Assembled new ATI Damper
-Messed up assembly so I had to press off and reassemble. The bolt holes didn't line up
-Figured out that the old ARP damper bolt was too long.
-Pulled old damper off.
-Disassembled coil bracket mount for powder coating (going to be Yellow/green)
-Installed front wheel hub assembly.

I am going to do a rebuild and powder coat my calipers. Rusty, I know you have done it a few times. Where do you get the rebuild kits from?

Last picture shows my brake duct not on the car after assembly. cool...


First pictures show the powder coating on the car. Looks damn good in person! The camera can't keep up with the intensity of the Yellow/Green. The calipers will be coated the same yellow/green. I think the wheels for the car will be the Nismo Club Sport. If they still make them when I get close to being done.

Here's the KITS you need from Z1. They have the o-ring for between the halves.

Thanks dude.

Also. You have done an SPL upgrade on your lower control arms right? Worth it?

My 2 cents on the lower bushings. Yea, they are worth it. You be surprised at how much freer the suspension moves with the SPL bearings.

I asked him the same exact question
As I purchased new lower control arms, because the lower ball joints aren’t serviceable
