Appreciate it, but still looking for a concise answer to my question on the fluids. Transmission fluid, oil, coolant, all of it. My car has been sitting for almost a year inside a garage with the back door to the garage only closed at night time. I dont think having that door open during the day will do any damage to the car. There is much debate on that though, and if its good for the suspension to be resting like that on the jack stands. I took the rims off for most of it though. But as it warms up the car will start getting pulled out and put back together piece by piece. So since my next step besides and LED swap and steering wheel and seats the next step will be to get the engine back in shape. Therefore im in need of ALL FLUIDS.

Just got word my gauge cluster inlay is all done, so I will be sending out all my interior things to get a full led swap. Should have pics up next week. I will probably have my pulleys on next week too... Just waiting for my ac lines and my hoses and belts and this beast will be pieced back together.

Sorry it's been around a month since I've updated. Car is still on stands, but I'm closer to getting it on the road. I keep buying parts though and putting them on instead of just moving forward. So what I've done since my last update was,new belts, unorthodox pulleys, all ac lines are in besides the one off the turbo. It's on back order. Koyo radiator, and z1 hoses, and stainless steele sleeves are on the car as well. Gauge cluster should be done and in my hands next week. My custom steering wheel will be done by about end of july early october. I bout a DLI, then decided I didn't want it so I'm selling it. Grounding kit installed, and I pulled the trigger on a set of sparco r505seats.

They will be going off to the interior shop soon. They will be all black leather and heated with either light grey diamond stitch,or gold diamond stitch which makes me come to y'all with a question. Gold or grey stitching. If I do grey stitching I'm leaving my carpet grey, and doing my pillars and my headliner grey suede. If I go gold stitch all will go black, so the gold will just be accenting everything. Help is needed on this one. Then the car will go into paint. Coco brown with a copper ghost pearl, or midnight blue with a ghost ice pearl. Advice is wanted on that as well.

I will get hate for this, but I'm dipping the car. I just can't choose a color, and I will be doing a widebody project within the next. 2 years that's when I will pick a paint color. I'm bouncing between the two interiors because they are neutral completely. Also there will be a lot of carbon fiber vinyl accents I'm there. When you see how much fiber is in the car it makes sense. It's a show car, so clean classy, but slightly over the top is the name of the game. Also I would stray away from blue, because my lighting is red.
