Beautiful Z brother. I love the lip kit :tup:. You've probably been asked multiple times, but how's the fitment? Keep up the great work!

hahaha!! well to answer the question i can say... everything fits perfect even the front lip that was custom made for my 2013+ front bumper... they have some details here and there but is not something to worry about :tup:

And the wheels... fits like a glove bro ;)

Any other question let me know

Man this car is VERY well done! The Swift drop looks better on yours than mine, but maybe because you have different wheels and I'm on the Nismo wheels.

Thanks a lot bro for the comment. :tup: i really appreciated... well my opinion is that the difference between Nismo and mine was the nismo struts ;) maybe that was the reason that the drop of our cars have a little difference with the same springs.

mods update :stirthepot:

recently i was thinking that is time to work on my next upgrade... is a maintenance too hahaha! I was looking to upgrade the brake department ;) after read a few threads and read the feedback from some 370z user i decide to go with the EBC USR Slotted Rotors :) here are some pics...

https://farm1.staticflickr.com/572/2...8b7c95fc_c.jpgimage4 by Carlos Berrios, on Flickr

they are a beauty and i can wait to install them :excited: my next purchase are going to be the brake pads and the brake fluid that i am already running on my Z the Motul RBF600 soo far soo good :) At the moment im not 100% sure about what brake pads buy... i track and daily use the Stop Tech and they are very very good and they are cheaper than the EBC. Anyway at the moment to buy it im going to decide...

And my last exterior mod... finally the front splitter :stirthepot:

Last Saturday i go to SPR (Splitters Puerto Rico) to see what they can do for my Z.... And few hours lately here is the work done :excited:

Good Am everyone :hello: lets give an update to my Build :) Well last Saturday I take the Z to a friend and one of my STI mechanics to install the brakes rotors, brake pads and new brake fluid. here are some pics :)

https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5726/...b497a271_c.jpgimage2 by Carlos Berrios, on Flickr

The parts are:
EBC USR Ultimax Rotors
EBC Yellowstuff Brake Pads'
Motul RBF600 Brake Fluid

It still on brake-in process cause as i read... i have to wait about 100-200 miles to get the best from the brake pads.. but daaaamn i love it so far... The car stop fcking great... can wait to test this setup at the track :driving: i know it will work great.

Other simple mod that i made was installing the Gram Lights decal on the wheels and paint the letters on the tires hahaha! looks great for me... but dont know if i will do it again (tires letters) hahaha!

https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5816/...df90c523_c.jpgimage1 (1) by Carlos Berrios, on Flickr

Sorry for the random pic :p i take it last night and i have my GF waiting for me to enter to the theater loooool! :bowrofl: Later im going to take some good pics ;)
