Thanks for the intro Stony. As you can see I've been around but really don't like to be in the lime light so...
NZeder and mattyice thanks for your complement.
As Stony states I owe a lot of thanks to Matt but also to my buddy Pat and to this form for where my car stands now. Not only has this forum given me inspiration for my Z but it has been a awesome source of information. Only within the past several months has people in Japan really started getting into RB powered Z so this forum was my only source of good solid information on RB Zs. I've been the owner of the car for 15+ years and this forum has helped improve my Z within the past 2 years than the total previous years that I've owned it. Much thanks to all the staff and members for this wonderful forum!
A little intro on my Z. The model I have is the S31 Fairlady-Z 200L with I purchased used over 15 years ago. The car was initially silver with Black Watanabes and came with a L28 engine, triple 44mm solex, headers and exhaust. It also came with stock A/C and power windows. The car has come a long way since then and the current looks of the car now is blue metallic with front spoilers, 240Z over fenders and 17" Works S1 wheels.

The car is running out of registration this month and will go into the body shop in 2~3 months (want the old school look = white w/ gunmetal overfenders) so I'm planning on rewiring the entire car using Painless Wires. Also plan to build the engine while the chassis is in the shop. I already have the head ready go. Port & polished head with HKS cams, valve springs & cam gears. I just need to build the bottom end.
Also want to do this but much work tho...
Dash came from a R33 Skyline GTR, AC works too!!
