Spent a couple days at RRYDE alley and came out with a cleaner look

Before:


After:


Latest round of mods:

Koyo V-Core 36mm Aluminum Racing Radiator (for the 350z)
Forged racing slim fan shroud - polished
Earl's Transmission Cooler w/ custom RRDYE bracket, braided hoses and AN fittings
Polished Thermostat
Polished Unorthodox Racing Idler Pulley
Polished Unorthodox Racing Alternator Pulley
Modified, welded and Chrome coolant pipes (driver/passenger sides - deleted coolant hose that runs across the timing cover)
Various braided hoses and polished clamps
PCV valve converted to AN fitting
A couple more polished bolts

HUGE thanks to all who helped: RRYDE, OH6 G35, Dave's Garage, bigc, Marty_G, and sammy_G


Tranny lines coverted to AN (a very tedious task, thanks RRYDE!)


Forged Racing fan shroud and Koyo Radiator


UR Alternator Pulley


UR Idler Pulley


AN fitting on PCV valve


Polished thermostat


So much room now

Thanks Man!

Coming along very nicely Chris. Nice hanging out with you and your son at RRYDE alley on Saturday. Our boys had a lot of fun playing cars together.

Burned brackets/bar is money, sick work Randy!
