Snooze ya lose

Actually, I like them so much I decided to keep them for the 370Z. Just had to add front and back spacers for caliper clearances, and replace the front barrels to a different offset +42

Other than that ..... they fit perfectly

Well as of right now, I have a GTSpec Front Strut Bar, BC Racing Coilovers in 14/12, and Powergrid Endlinks. If all the funds come together, I'm going to be picking up a Haltech platinum and doing a single turbo build early this spring.

Mine were about $4000 all in right to my door but that was back in 06/07. I bet you could do it for $3500 now with the dollar better and less GST.

Installed my coilovers last weekend.

This weekend I might install the front RB BBK I picked up over winter.

Then I need to figure out where to pick up 19" tires for lo dollers.

Then I need to shoot a hole through the VQ so I have a real excuse to get rid of it.

^^ Jon, lmk what sizes you are lookin' for.

I had a couple $$ burning a hole in my Paypal so I ordered a (very) little something from Riverside Infiniti. Somehow I forgot to mention it to the lovely wife. So I get home today and there's a box in the hallway.

Wife: "So I guess this part is for me since I paid the COD on it...?"

Haha, busted. So much for stealth mods.

I need 245/35 19 x4. OR 235, I need to test fit the wheels to see how much stretch **** needs to fit.

edit; The cheapest I have found for decent tires is Discount Tire Direct. FK 452's are just a touch over 900 bucks.

I've been looking all winter for some gently-used 255/35s for the rears, and I do come across some different sizes in my travels. I'll keep an eye out for ya. For my part, though, looks like I'll have to bite the bullet and buy new to get what I want.
