jameskaye22 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 (edited) Hello everyone, So after catching the modifying bug with my civic coupe back in 2011 i have made the natural progression to something a bit more interesting. Take centre stage my 350z, its a 54 plate with 62000miles on. And best of all its standard so let the fun begin. This is what she looked like when i first got her; So i have a few things in mind already, New numberplate Stubby aerial Dewiper rear Debadge rear Clean and paint plenum Edited November 18, 2014 by jameskaye22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jameskaye22 Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 Ok so i got a new front plate and stubby of ebay and went to Halfords for some paint and gromits last week and decided to spend the day sorting out a few aesthetics on the car Mid way through polishing Dewipered i think just looks so much sleeker!! Right next job has to be a little more visual work Lower and Spacers are in order. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jameskaye22 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 Ok so like normal I forgot to take some photos before I started and was just to excited to get to work on the Zed. Yesterday I went to pick up a set of Apexi 30mm lowering springs, so after an amazingly uneventful few hours and some help from a mate this is what has happened. Right so the car is now lower but the need for spacers has become massively apparent but luckily they arrived this morning as I was about to post up this update, so I took a quick break from the laptop and broke out my tools for the 3rd day this week and put on the spacers! 20mm front and 30mm Rear. Apologies for the car being dirty but it rained just after I cleaned the car !! Anyway the close ups show I think the fitment is nearly perfect but a little camber adjustment is in order I reckon, I will go take a few PROPER pics later today and post up to show off the whole car 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjf1985 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Looks good mate! I thought the 30mm Apexi springs required rear camber adjustment but the camber looks fine to me. Miles better with the spacers too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
