^ Thank you, I appreciate that.

Took a little bit of time today to throw on the rear Whiteline sway bar and end links. Filled the diff, and decided to put a different exhaust on.

Also… FINALLY got the R35 rotors today.. there were some mixups and delays but it all got straightened out so no need to re-hash it.

So now I’m 380mm on all four corners. Honestly, they look ridiculous in person but it’s hard to get a good perspective in pictures

Really nice rebuild !! Looks like you are using some good quality parts !

Can't wait to see the final results on this!

If you don't mind me asking, what's your budget on this project?

What's a budget? lol

I wouldn't really say that I have or had a budget in mind when I started this. I'm sure if I started to add everything up I'd get a little light-headed lol.

I'm not even really sure what the final iteration of the car will look like at this point. I'm leaning towards Advan GT's over TE37's but for the sizes and concave look I want I would likely have to do fenders. Downside is.. I don't really like the look of what is out there right now.

Until I can figure out what I want in that area I'm just working on the bumper swap and figuring out a color to wrap it.

Realized I never added a pic of the Recaro in, here’s the best I have right now:

Here’s maybe a better perspective pic of the rear rotor size:

And I’m leaning towards this color, it’s very similar to Midnight Purple II (coincidentally, that is the color of a Kouki S14 I used to drive back in the day) I just feel like you don’t see a lot of green Z’s *

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Green looks great and different :hello:

I think the green will look awesome !! Are you going to do it yourself, or have someone wrap it ?

I had a shop in east York quote it and about fell over. I’m not shy when it comes to a big number but this was a quite excessive. So at this point I ordered some gloss red vinyl as close to a54 as I can get and may try and to the hood, spoiler, and front bumper myself until I can get other quotes… not a lot of wrap shops around here it would seem.

Check out Vvivid vinyl wrap on Amazon. They have a bunch of cool looking colors. The 2015+ front bumper is really hard to do. When I removed the wrap that was on my car when I bought it, the old vinyl pulled the paint off the front bumper. I tried to wrap the front bumper to cover up the mess, and it is a bear to do !! If you want some help with the wrap, let me know.

That green will go great with the calipers.

Not a huge update, but:

Have the click of death on my GTR calipers, anyone familiar with the issue knows the pain.

Picked up all new hardware, pins and springs, and decided to put in .5mm titanium shims while
I was in there. Doesn’t seem to have yielded positive results…

A little more exciting, yet slightly intimidating, I picked up vinyl and I’m going to try my hand at wrapping it myself.. any tips from anyone that’s done it before?

So life’s gotten a little busy recently so I haven’t had the time I would like to commit to the wrap, but I did make progress in a different way.

Picked up some TFF bash bars front and rear. Shout out to them, great workmanship and even got some fruit snacks out of the deal.

Went with a heavy metallic on gloss white. Tried to get a good pic but it just doesn’t do it justice without seeing it in the sun in person.

Also inb4 “you ruined your garage floor”. Doing a new epoxy floor is already on the to-do list for the spring. Should be more concerned with the fact that I forgot to buy a respirator.
