KROz Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 The dr20 wheels you had were in 114x4? I can't find them anywhere in our bolt pattern! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~KnuckleDuster~ Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 The dr20 wheels you had were in 114x4? I can't find them anywhere in our bolt pattern! I thought they were but your right all I see is 4x100. The 1" spacers I had on must have been a 4x114 to 4x100 adapter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KROz Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Never mind that! Found them on eBay. Nice build by the way. Your original s30 inspired my dream of an NA RB in the distant future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your original s30 inspired my dream of an NA RB in the distant future! Thanks, I miss the old Z..never should have sold it! The N/A Rb was really fun, finding aftermarket parts was a scavenger hunt though. I'm looking forward to feeling turbo power once again!

motomanmike Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Just a thought looking back on this post I had a thought. On my 1 Z I had a similar radiator and I got a sandwich plate and used that bottom portion of the radiator as the oil cooler and it worked pretty good. Had to get creative routing the line to clear the alternator pulley but just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakk24a Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Only one word is needed for this and it's "WOW". Absolutely love the work you're doing to it at the moment! Keep up the effort, you're an inspiration to us all including myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docaam Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Awesome work man, I still remember sending you a pm for your old Z when you were selling it but it went slightly beyond my budget on ebay and missed it. Got something else and now about it to finish it. It was one hell of a built looking forward to see this one as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~KnuckleDuster~ Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the kind words guys. Unfortunatly the Z is still sitting at the shop getting the kinks worked out. Iv'e just been collecting interior pieces to replace the broken ones. Heres what the rear interior currently looks like Edited July 23, 2017 by ~KnuckleDuster~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~KnuckleDuster~ Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Just throwing this video in here for fun. With my Z still sitting in the shop collecting dust getting all the wiring sorted out this video helps keep the faith that one day hopefully soon, I'll get to bring my car home and have my little slice of heaven.

brianZortiz Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Man, you have door dings. I hate how some people have no respect of other vehicles parked next to them. They open there door and Wam!. Nice car, I have those same dings. Hope you can fix her up to look extra clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~KnuckleDuster~ Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) Fender work and coilover installation under way. New wheel bearings installed all around as well. Here's the old set-up with cut springs of different lengths. Edited January 14, 2016 by ~KnuckleDuster~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
