I got some parts for the Z will post details they time they are ready for installation. As of now car has been sanded and polished and fitting of the parts has started. Took it on a recovery for a quick wash inside out.

Image
Image

Engine looks clean now
Image
Image

Even clearcoated underside of the hood
Image

Finish seems to be great
Image
Image
Image
Image

I got cusco front and rear struts and motorsports sway bars along with some exciting stuff from Techno Toy Tuning they make some excellent suspension parts for older Toyota and Datusn/Nissans. I always felt the lack of camber and caster setting and a weaker stock suspension so got myself these from them, only down point is their parts are a bit heavy but im not that much bothered about weight saving.

Rear lower control arms, will allows to adjust toe and camber, and can also move the tire within fender wall about 1/2"and can widen the rear track by 1"

Image
Image

Front lower control arms, again widen and shortening along with camber and toe setting, have two setting for sway bars and in total very touch compared to stock ones, come with new ball joints as well.

Image
Image
Image

Tension control rods, got these to adjust the caster as thats a priority, even after cutting the fenders wheels is touching on turning



Image
Image
Image

got new bixenon headlights, will fit in place of old halogen stock ones, good thing is they are also made of glass as OEM ones.

Image
Image

side by side
Image


car wont be complete without CF, for the start got the rear tail light panel and BRE replica spoiler CF wrapped at Carbonsignal, result as always amazing
