EVERYONE.. I already posted in the local... but I have a couple curb ramps for sale. if anyone near St. Louis is interested...lmk! I got these for $215 shipped to my house.. I'm selling it for $170 local. Still new. Reason I don't need them...I could go up my driveway without scraping after being dropped.

Your Z looks awesome bro, let me know what you think of the BC coils!

so far so good! I've never been lowered before and buying Coilovers for the first time.. man these feel great compare to stock. I love the look too! I still have to go get an alignment done.. then get rear spacers for the rear! Lmk what you got shipped to 63368..I was told 20mm or 25mm bolt on. :)

KaienZ34 05-05-2013 11:16 AM

Both cars are smoken, i'll always love the MKIV. I'm only on swifts, but I loaded up the hatch for a trip put two people in the seats. It looked perfect, I think it was about an inch lower than the swifts so two inches lower than stock front and rear. How much lower than stock are you now?

Jasonle 05-05-2013 11:24 AM

I think it's 1" in front and 1.5 in the rear. I've only driven it 4 times.. I'm waiting to get an alignment done before driving it more. But so far it's nice!

Did a car wash while the mother is out running errands today(mothers day).. decided to take the Supra out for a quick few pictures with the Z. The supra is a side project... eventually ima change out that body kit and get something else.. but for now my focus is on the Black beast! Just ordered some 20mm rear spacers from Z1 and the picture of the Tommy Kaira Hebi Bebi shift knob I just ordered this knob (early birthday present from the wife) should be coming in a week or so...

simota1 05-12-2013 03:49 PM

Looking good buddy

Dallaz 05-13-2013 11:12 PM

Man your car looks killer! I definitely want to see pics of the new shift knob installed. I just skimmed the last few pages of this thread so far so I may have missed this, but do you have anything else planned for it?

Thanks! I'm working on the interior next! Doing black and red seats and door panels..upgrade the brakes...Berk HFC's and then ima do the engine mods after that. Eventually I want to turbo this and the supra in the future...but my wife wants to have kids soon. Oh we'll...taking it slowly right now.. till 30 years later when the kids move out :icon17:

These 20mm spacers are perfect! It LOOKS a lot better NOW that it's pushed out and not sunken in. I want to THANK EVERYONE that answered my questions through PM on what spacers I should go with. I want to THANK John AGAIN for helping me with all this tonight :):tiphat:

Jerggy13 05-15-2013 10:53 PM

No problem man. I am glad they worked out so well.

If anyone in the StL region needs any install work done, please let me know.

Hey Guys I need some opinions. I really like these rims and I wanted to do the murder out look. So I was thinking about powdercoating the chrome to all black. I had user "Cooltoy" (which is a cool dude for doing this for me:tup:) photoshop these for me. The first picture is chrome which is what I have right now and the 2nd picture is the photoshop all blacked out. What are your thoughts? Should I leave it chrome or should I black it out. I like both but if you had to choose one...which one.

370Z JT 05-16-2013 12:49 PM

Blacked out

MIGHTYMOUSE 05-16-2013 06:34 PM

all satin black would look nice!

Jerggy13 05-16-2013 07:51 PM

Black looks good

ENT-Z 05-16-2013 08:41 PM

Definitely black

Jasonle 05-16-2013 08:46 PM

wow black is winning lol. Made a few phone calls..$65 a wheel he charges to powder coat these black... tempting!

Jerggy13 05-16-2013 09:31 PM

just remember dismounting, mounting, balancing costs also.

You will be without wheels for a while also.

Jasonle 05-17-2013 05:33 AM

These are NOT my rims...but I was thinking having them do my polished like this Gloss shiny black and the spokes part Satin black..

You definitely should. If it happens to be around the first Saturday of September when your thinking of traveling this way you could see our cars and coffee as well. It's huge!

I'd love to see yours in person!

Jasonle 05-19-2013 02:47 AM

we're thinking about coming labor day week. I'll hit you guys up definitely if i do come down there!

Just washed the Z and polished the rims. Here some better pictures of the spacers I got for the rear :)

GetYourWheels 05-20-2013 04:01 PM

Nice progress! The black would look nice, however I would remove the headlight/tail light if you go with all black wheels. IMO it's just too much black without contrast.

Not sure if I'm going to black wheels now..I just polished the wheels and it looks nice! :)

Mr&Mrs 05-23-2013 04:21 AM

The spacers make everything work now. Did you get my PM?

Thank you :tiphat: I did get your PM! I was quoted $250-$300 a wheel to powdercoat these Rims to the way I want it with the lip gloss and the spokes satin..thats just too much...I might as well get new rims. For now i'ma leave it.. Down the road ill get some new shoes.
