Well, I decided to make some big changes to my car. Over the next couple of months I'm gonna post some teaser shots with final pics once everything is installed and finalized. If anyone is going to Z Nationals in the ATL area you'll be able to see it in person. I've only talked to a few members and vendors about the change, so if you know about it keep it hush, hush. I'll post pics as I go. On a totally different note I tried installing the Mishimoto power steering reservoir this weekend and failed. I'll try again this weekend.

I hate secrets :mad:

Haha. I think it's gonna be a love/ hate kinda deal with the purist members on the forum, but I'm extremely excited for it.

I'm excited to see what you have planned.

Quick update on the changes to my car. If I were to break my plans out into four phases, as of today i've purchased 2 of the 4 phases. Unfortunately I still have to wait for the parts to arrive which I would estimate both will be here around the first week of September. The third phase will have to wait until I purchase my daily driver, which is about 3 weeks out... its a wonderful P.O.S 2000 Cavalier with about 120,000 miles, but hey it's hard to beat $1000, and keeping my car under a cover in the winter is priceless. The last phase will be my winter project.

I'm also taking my front and rear bumper to get refinished next week. My painter is gonna touch up some of the chips in the front bumper and refit the rear spats (the slight gap from when I installed them is annoying me). Im also gonna have him paint my Mishimoto PS reserviour and radiator overflow tank to match the 40th body color.

I'll post pics when everything is done.

sounds very interesting Wiggins........Tell us what your getting:stirthepot:

I've given you hints on what I'm doing via text, keep it quiet though ;)

Construction in progress...

Ohhh shettttt!!! Your doing it!!! Sick!! Can't wait to see it!!!!

It's killing me man. I took my door inserts out and will be driving without any for a few weeks. Luckily I picked up my DD today, so i wont be putting a ton of miles on it before everything is sent back. I'm paying $1,000 for the DD, totally worth it to keep the miles off the Z and keep it stored in the winter. Here's a pic....

Oh and that Jag in the background is still for sale. Someone please buy it so I can buy more Z parts!!

On a side note I had a photo shoot with a local internet periodical a couple weeks back. Pics and an article should be posted in a week or two. Check them out here:

Any updates:ugh2:

My only update is that my car is at a Nissan dealer with a failed clutch slave cylinder. 27 days past 3 yr warranty. God I hope I can get them to cover

Take them the thread off of this forum and contact Nissan HQ. A good dealer will take care of it for you. ON a side note call John at Z1 and get an upgraded CSC if you have to buy the new one.

Called Nissan N.A about an hour ago. They are gonna "look into it" and get back to me. Fingers crossed they give me good news tomorrow. The problem is I traveled 120 miles for work, and I'm supposed to come home tomorrow.

As far as updates on the parts I've ordered I have nothing yet, the biggest piece is supposed to begin being built this week, from there it's two weeks until they get delivered to my door. One of the smaller upgrades is supposed to shipped by Sept 1. I'll keep everyone updated.
