LIES! lol

Noice,glad to see more progress. I remember seeing your car a long time ago on I-5N in Seattle.

Will do, but my coils have to arrive first haha.

Sorry guys haha won't do it again. Yeah I was thinking the same thing, so I can take it off when working in the bay.

Ahh...ok, sorry sorry.

Yeah, I've been looking at ways for it for a while. The only way I could think of is to make a weld in one.

How will you guys solve the strut bar issue? a welded in one? 10/8? isn't that like 350z stiff

Alright thanks, as I was a little worried it might be too stiff.

What are your spring rates, and how do you like the ride? Comfortable? Looks good!!

What about the GT-R Deep blue Pearl? Sorry don't have any pictures of the color at the moment.

Well I havent recieved my coils yet, so we'll see. Its been a little over 3weeks since I ordered.

Yes, I was surprised on the little amount of rust the car had, but by the looks of it the car has been wrecked before. I live in Washington so it rains 3/4 of the year, for that 3/4 of the year she'll be parked inside the garage until a nice sunny day. I agree on that, I will never be able to sell mine for the amount of time and money I put into her. Hmmm...I never really noticed that I rarely take off the wheel as I am doing body work first.

I know for a fact that my dad wouldn't like me cutting into the car, I wouldn't hear the end of it haha. I will try the spacer for the sway bar. As for the wheels I have no clue what the specs are, I haven't really looked into them yet.

Well I did a compression test yesterday which turned out to be at 125. For the coilovers yes I am using the springs out of the box spring rates are 8/6. That was the style of strut bar I was looking for too. As for the wiring I plan on ripping it all out, replace my dash with my uncracked one and go from there.

Ahh thank you for the correction, I will edit the original post.

Thanks! For now I will probably change out my head because I have a n42/p79 combo. I'm still waiting for my coils to come in, I hate fedex they keep coming to deliver when no one is around so now they shipped it back to Apexi. so now I have to play the waiting game. I already have my Zccjdm camber plates in, I think I will do a custom strut bar like the ones on the new 370z's still not sure yet though. I am only paying (well borrowed) $2800 for all this to get done with paint taking up $2k of that cost haha. The rest is for the supplies for the wiring and bodywork. Link to the energy suspension pieces? I think I have a link somewhere showing you how to paint your car for around $500.

Well...still no coils Fedex is being Fedex, but I did get a new fender from a 75 280z at the local u-pull junkyard. Progress is getting slower and slower as more and more cars are coming for sandblasting. Only have the hatch sanded so far. There's still so much to do Now for the other projects at the shop 67 Mustang that came in for blasting A old little Honda can't remember the name right now The Chevelle

Thanks! I wish I can afford a nice motor but i have a small budget right now. In the future I will put a nice one in

Apexi n1's for the s13

Thanks, yeah it is alright for a 70 but it has its problems. It was in a front end collision once. I'm actually looking for a passenger fender right now. If I can't find one by friday I'm taking it to Zspecialies to get repaired.

I'm curious because I haven't seen any topics on it after I searched. Also for the rear coilover install is there a way to install it without a rear adapter sleeve, and use the rear perch it comes with?

Thankyou, I always search but the search doesnt work on my phone.

Will the 280z fender fit on a 240z?

(drool) Do want!

End of Week 1 Ordered my Coils and camber plates will be here Wednesday-Saturday, bought the cheap $80 plastic fender mirrors off ebay last week and they arrived today. While taking apart the car for sanding I found out that I needed a new passenger side fender so if anyone has one they're willing to sell pm me. Currently she is getting gutted out completely for rewiring during that process all the plastic interior pieces broke so now I also am in need of those. I settled on a Lexus Black Sapphire pearl for paint what do you guys think of the color? The bad fender How she sits as of today The pile of parts And finally of the shop
