All I can say is wowww. Making it happen! Looking good too with the new wheel setup. Beasty! Can't wait to see the GTR blue paint on.

Before paint, are you prepping the engine bay by covering motor and removing hoses? I still need to clean mine up too. Haha

I had a slow weekend this weekend but I'm putting in some time this year again, haha.

Thanks for the opinions regarding the wheels, they should look just right with a bit more low.





Right now my engine bay is all bondo'd up. I got all of the spot welds, brackets, and where the wiring harnesses used to go through all shaved!

I'm going to sand it down, primer, sand more, then base coat the bay like I have been doing on all of the exterior dents. After the rest of the car is finished up I'm going to drive to the paint shop. They're going to do the masking off and I'm going to take everything apart...

Gotta do what you gotta do to save $$.

Thanks man!

Consider it slammed, guys. The top of my shoes touch the front bumper... The rear shot was pre-coilover install and I still haven't finished up the fender forming in the rear.

Well, I decided to make this a track car that can be street driven. I am going to build a roll/harness bar and will cover it with specially designed padding to make it as safe as possible. Until then I can enjoy my new seats with the factory 3 point!

15-20 mph. Keep your crash bars if you go FI. Imagine it at 60.

uhhhh basically spun off the road like an ******* on the way to class. I blame the cold summer tires, but .

I had a good run. Two years at 450+WHP.

I bought a white 350z, this drivetrain will be going into it after I can move to a spot with a work area...

Hey yosip, I currently own and am in the process of building my 06 G35x and was wondering what you have left to part out? I've been trying to find info on 6MT swapping an X and you are the only person I have found who successfully managed it, and was wondering if you could spread the knowledge. Located in MA btw, so if you have part leftover to sell I can make the drive to pickup.
