Recommended Posts

HOLY CRAP! Those door panels turned out great!!!!!! 

Thanks, the chrome vinyl has held up good so far. Its been a few weeks

 

A little progress today. I received my custom plug wires, heat shield, manifold stud kit, and new valve cover bolts from Datsun Spirit today. I also installed my new 3 row aluminum radiator

I got a new windshield and my rear hatch glass installed yesterday. I opted to have the professionals come out and do this job. Im glad I did because they did an amazing job. I used the Precision seals that I got with my weatherstrip kit and they thought they worked great. No gaps or anything. Still trying to decide to reinstall the metal trim.....

Do you have a list or excel file of the bolt sizes and hardware you purchased, and what parts they are for?

Thanks for the kind words!

 

I am in the process of making a list of all the hardware I bought. I ordered more than I needed so I just need to figure out what I didnt use. I will let you know.

 

Hey Matt, been following your build for awhile... amazing work.

Did you ever make a list of all the hardware you purchased? Would love to see that. Thanks :D

Received my BC coilovers. I went with 4kg rate in rear and 5kg in front. Should be a nice smooth ride.

Very nice!

I just finished installing the fronts, now gotta do the rears.

 

Your build is definitely inspiring ... mind I ask what your budget on this build is? or if you've surpassed that? :lol:
