Alangorst Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Hi all this is the build of my zed. Bought it in November 16 off a mate. Pretty standard , nisei springs and shocks , nismo arbs , hks legimax exhaust and custom made y piece and de cats. Decided before I bought the car that this one definetly needs a BGW so bought one and got some 19s to for it as well. After this I decided it was time for a new clutch and gearbox as mine weren't the best. So picked up a good used gearbox and bought a dc performance stage 4 clutch and ultra lightweight flywheel. Got bored one day and seen a hole saw sitting at my mates and decided to cut holes in my bumpers and tuck the rear bumper. Car then got took and I got a custom made single exit exhaust for it and decided it would be good to put the private plate on the car and remove all the interior from behind the front seats , fit some buckets and a harness bar 🙄 So now the car was driving as it should with its new box and clutch I decided the body was a bit rough and needed tidying up. So I stripped it all down , rolled the rear arches , smoothed the z badges out of the wings , smoothed the front bumper , smoothed the tailgate and smoothed out the aerial hole , took the whole car back to bare metal and got a mate to give it a quick lick of paint for me! Which turned out like this. That made the car look a little different. Whilst I had my car stripped down to get painted I purchased a green 350z donar car that has some powder coated suspension parts on it ( so be it they are yellow , green and orange ) but the next move is to change every single component on the underside of the car , clean all the floor and schutz it Currently I have the front all stripped out and the front inner arches all tidied up, just waiting on some solid engine mounts arriving and some tien track rods and track rod ends. 😬 Once all that's done I intend on a plenum spacer or a plenum and then go and get her mapped as it's still restricted from jap land. This is what some of the suspension looks like, everything coloured is staying the colour that it is🙄 Well that's it for now really! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scobie140 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Colours cracking The green donor car used to belong to a member on here, the unique suspension colouring gives it away Curious as to why the angle on the rear pate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Nice colour, not sure about drilling holes in bumpers personally but like the clever number plate (V6 2+2+2 assuming thats the point!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm Aware on who owned the car was speaking to him a while Back. The plates just on the standard bracket but the clip that holds its down is broke so it just sits where it wants really 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers bud yeah the holes in the bumpers were a boredom thing one day hah don't know how I feel towards them fully but no going back now 😂👌🻠The plate was just a random plate that's been sat on retention for a ages and I wanted to hide how old my zed is hah then after it being on for a while I noticed the V2+2+2 thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
