Nice work, Robert! Flying right through this project, maybe this will motivate me to get back wrenching on my bucket of parts 😅

Keep in mind that those kseries making 300+HP na are vtec heads... I was once big into Hondas for many years as they were cheap and easy to build for fun street cars, but you take a vtec engine, disconnect the VTEC solenoid and that engine is going to run like poop compared to the power you're making with vtec funtioning. But, I realize these heads are being produced as a non VTEC head, so I'm sure they'll run healthy. Just don't make the mistake of thinking it'll make equal power to a VTEC head, cause it wont.

Any updates on this?

Those are seriously impressive numbers!

Hey what's up lead foot, im almost positive I won't be going gnose anymore but I'm also pretty sure I will not end up using the factory ones either. I'm will most likely buy fiberglass ones and try to widen them since I'm planning to go widebody. Send me a pm and we'll talk. Also I have been updating this build under the members project section so if anyone wants to check it out there's been a good amount of progress made since I've last posted here.

Yeah definitely higher than I would spray ppg, looks good though, can't wait to see it on the ground with the wats installed

The finish came out much better this time, good job! What pressure did you shoot the clear at?

pm sent.

This is a mean looking z, love it.

Just read through your build, SEM products are great, I've used their carbo-fil and interior paint at work and on my personal project. I'm a big fan of ppg products though, if prepped properly paint chipping off should never be a problem. Either way the doors came out looking good, Post up pics of the chassis once you finish it!

Actually, I'm not looking for anything loud color wise.. I guess i could see how it'd come off that way with the lime yellow haha, i thought 112 lime yellow would be a little softer, but maybe i was thinking of 919 yellow. I'm a big fan of the Pastel like vintage looking colors, I will have to decide about the flares. Someone should reproduce a panel starting from below the body line And the whole wheel arch area to make a easier repair for the cut quarters. That way it wouldn't be as big of a deal to patch it back up to original if for some reason i had a change of heart years later. And thanks a lot for all the good feedback rturbo 930, it really helps to toss around other ideas.

For example if you look closely I don't believe that orange z with the gnose and flares has the wheel arches cut. And still has wider wheels on it...

If I go gnose I will be running work flares front and back with the work front lip. If I don't go gnose then work flares on the rear and then the wide 3.25 zg flares up front. Now, trust me i really don't want to cut up the quarters either... Maybe I can leave them uncut like the original zg's? I can still run wide wheels just not slam it (which I don't plan to either way) And thanks for those pics! I want to stray away from orange just because i saw a nice Rb swapped 432 clone fairlady in a magazine years ago, stateside.

If you read this please Give your opinion on the color situation, not gonna hurt my feelings! I'm thinking possibly paint matching the flares? Or if anyone has seen a 112 lime yellow z with flares that looks good post up a pic! Thanks!
