To bad you wont be keeping that color, the bay looks beautiful

Great looking work! What welder are you using? I'm ready to move up from my mig and get a tig to really be able to fabricate with, but don't (can't) want to spend too much on one.

Your gonna wanna use some kind of rust prevention paint on those parts, regular flat black wont do the job in the long run. If your gonna rattle can it you should probably use rustoleum, or if you wanna do it the right way go with por15

Car is coming together great! The other z in the garage looks amazing too, i hope thats not your donor car cause it looks to have a lot of potential.

Car is coming together great.

very unique swap. Cant wait to see a driving vid.

looks amazing, sucks that you had to do the paint work twice.

looking good man, keep at it!

Amazing swap! i haven't been on here in a while, i almost feel guilty that i could just read all the way from page 5 to now without waiting on updates and vids like everyone else did

great build! the r33 wheels look much better

what about 87-89 z31 tails, without the center..

i have a l28et thats being freshly rebuilt right now, new rings, bearings, all gaskets and seals. i also have a non egr shaved and polished intake manifold to go with it, and a spacer and 60mm throttle body. head is fresh from the machine shop too. valve cover and turbo manifold can also be included. PM me if interested.

HUGH!! Whats going on any updates?????

I have some updates, but no pictures...... I think i'll just wait for the pics to post everything. Just a little something to hold everyone off, welding has commenced

@ rturbo 930, i don't think its a real fairlady, i believe he is converting it. And oustedfairlady, its gonna be a lot of work but just keep at it. You couldn't use the firewall from the parts car you sourced all the other parts from?

Nice dude, and honestly not at all man. Mine is the only one that i know of anywhere near me. And thanks bud, but tearing all down at once has its downfalls. If its not that bad i would suggest doing it panel by panel, my car has almost been down for a year now, its a lot at once when you do a full teardown

I read about that on your thread.. but my question is, can it be done on jackstands? ( since i never got around to building a rotisserie ) how would i be able to use the dry ice on the underside? I've never used dry ice myself but i have seen someone use it in their car, but it was on the inside so he just put all the ice inside the car. And yeah the space is nice, i originally had a 1 car garage when i fist started the build, then moved to a 2 car garage. But after a few months i decided i wanted a tad bit more room. That way me and my brother could pull in our bikes and have somewhere to work on them. So then i just got the 3 car garage. And I'm very happy with it.

well first things first..... what i've been up to the last few months thats kept my mind off the z........ My 05 zx10r trackbike ( aside from my z, motorcycles have always been a passion for me. So it was a long overdue upgrade from my 600 to a 1000 ) Working on my brothers 08 zx10, completely ignoring my baby sitting in the background patiently awaiting me. And then we have my newest project........ A 1966 Honda cb160. She is in horrible shape and needs a lot of work. But i got her from the original owner with only 7,548 original miles! Current stage. And the cafe racer make over i plan to give her. ( same concept, different color scheme ) But no worries, i've swore to myself that i will not drop a penny into her until my z is finished. Now. Shall we get back to the Z? Okay this is her closest current stage. About to remove drivetrain and front suspension. Drivetrain pulled. ( Thats me by the way, in the white. ) Interior. Or whats left of it. ( anyone know the color code for that factory blue? Might respray original color. ) All my Z's guts.... Misc. parts. ( putting my brothers 50th a.e to good use, lol ) Donor hood. Being chopped up for any useful sheet metal. Taking a break from helping my brother tune his bike. contemplating leaving or welding shut the upper quarter badges..... (black spray paint is only to prevent bare metal from rusting) Well thats it for now, i just bought a new needle gun. So i'll be attacking the undercoating with that, and welding in new metal should start this tuesday. I'll try and keep this thread updated from this point forward.

Thanks for the info on the needle gun. Just went and bought one yesterday, hope it helps me remove my undercoating easier

Alright finally got things rolling again with this project. I've been pretty busy with other things but my new goal is to have her back on the road by january.

my z has the original mirrors still on it; and i also have one spare brand new still in the nissan box, my glass is flat.

Nice build man, your work looks great; and keep in mind everyone has different taste when it comes to their personal cars, so doing what suites you is always best. Thats the beauty of it though how lame would it be if everyone modded each car exactly the same, there'd be no diversity.

that's a sick z.
