Car looking mean "ready for fight" in that pic.

Zeds really take to wheel upgrades well.

Nice concaveness going on there :thumbs:.

Look forward to seeing more of your zed in future threads.

Went for a single exit AAM competition and sold my non resonated cobra sports dual, had a minor mishap with a bottom control arm bush and decided these billet ally with uprated bushes would be a good choice, little did I know they weren’t quite machined right so me and my boss had to make some washers to ensure the ballpoint tightened properly

Asked my boss to paint the spoiler for me and help me fit it which was a pain in itself as we did it without using a stencil to mark the holes and run the brake light wiring

Needed to replace rear discs and pads so went all out and went for EBC yellow stuff and drilled and grooved as you do. The Z deserves the best! Became well acquainted with a common problem to the brembos over a certain age! The shim plates rising due to salt corrosion as the paints come off the calipers

Finally decided to spruce up some of the interior by painting the silver trim on the dials as felt it was just a bit boring so I also did the gearstick surround and the the dash trim in graphite black

Decided on some new wheels but saving up for these 7twenty style 42s, also up to date replaced some the rear tyres with some Falken azenis 510s and also painted the logos so people know I can’t afford continentals haha!

Thankyou guys yes I do love the azure blue makes it for me, and cheers yes I wanted something that shaped with the body added something to the back end

Great paintwork.

 

I do think it need a more aggressive rear bumper with that spoiler and the single exit though....

 

Slippery slope because then you'll want to balance it with more aggressive front and skirts!

 

Maybe bumper cut or tuck plus a top secret style diffuser? Then as I say to balance it out maybe a front lip/splitter combo?
