My Z32 SWB

Recommended Posts

Sick.

 

My fav of all my Top Trump card cars when I was a child.

 

If it were my project (just my 2p) I'd get it as OEM and clean as I could B) .

 

Good times man, enjoy.

 

I don't really do OEM :lol: And there is no way an OEM spoiler is going back on, way too fugly!

Did you not read the end of the first post regarding a possible V8 transplant?!

Although cost wise that would be a nightmare so I would likely just find a good s/h TT engine to drop in.

No, that's fair enough man, it's just you tend to see more of these modded to hell and back now than you do fine examples.

 

I did read it your bit about the V8, that's why I said 'just my 2p'.

 

Either way, it will be great fun to follow what you do with it, great car.

 

Love old Japanese sport car interiors !!

 

What other areas need to looked at if you drop the TT in ?? Are the brakes all the same ??

If the TT gets dropped in, it's obviously a long block and all the associated gubbins, Oil cooler, new fuel pump, intercoolers and piping, new rad, clutch, flywheel, shim on the starter, transmission bell housing shaved, exhaust, pcu, loom....

Brakes are the same. lol

To be honest, by the time I cost it all up, it could be worth doing the V8 conversion.

 

Externally she will remain mostly stock. Already has 99 spec rear lights, so will get the inserts I think to convert front lights to 99 spec. Possibly get a 99 spec front bumper at some point. That's probably it to be honest externally. I love how she looks already.

Bout time you were back in a Zed. :p:lol:B) Looks good. Doesn't look like the stock Z32 blue though, and no stock blue interior to match.

 

It had a cloth interior originally. Previous owner swapped out for leather.

I need to check paint codes.

I never used to like these as everything i saw back in the day was max power, flip paint , dragons and neon's but as soon as i got serious with cars and into the Jdm car scene i found hundreds of amazing z32 on the net and in a lot of case nice than most mk4 supras

Don't think the wheels are too bad they just don't suit the car. What wheels you got in mind?

 

No idea yet. Wish I hadn't sold those Rota GTRs a few month back though!

I had thought of that Immy. But don't like the look of the car when on Rays.

May think about 370 wheels.

 

For the short term though I'm gonna Plastidip the ones I already have.
