Lunar240z Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 did a big portion of my dash today the whole thing is going to be brushed, and either the welds smoothed or i'll go over them with the pulser on to make them look nicer. and this is something else i just started, an elise style rear diffuser, im not really expecting it to be effective, its more for looks, and my rear section was kinda wrinkly.

Lunar240z Posted May 24, 2007 Author Share Posted May 24, 2007 WHEELS I'm not really rich or anything, I just spend all of my money on my car. The wheels are the same as austin's 16x9.5, and 16x9, tires are 255/50/16 for the rear and 245/45/16 on the front. I didnt realize the 50s would be so much bigger, but hopefully they'll fit up there. the wheels will be further out than that, once i actually have the suspension in there. and the zg's mounted... right now ive been focusing on being able to roll this thing around before i leave for school in late june. I've got most of the suspension assembled together. But I just dont work on her enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunar240z Posted May 24, 2007 Author Share Posted May 24, 2007 Here' some of the progress on the suspension. I need to get another 280z stub axle. i mushroomed one of them trying to remove it from the car in the picknpull. I think i'm going to redo this arm, i got kinda crazy trying to makethe weld smooth, but afterwards decided it wasnt such a good idea. this is a bit of assembly i did on the shortblock...
