I've had my car for nearly 2 years now, I suppose its time to start a thread...
In an effort to avoid boosting the Z, I went pretty much as far as you can go NA without building the engine. If I'm honest, a modded Z is plenty fast for the street. Unfortunately I could not fight the itch for boost, I tried and tried but in the end it was too strong, I just had to see the Z get its rightful twins, I placed an order on 2/13/12 for a GTM stage 1 TT kit.

I honestly don't have a lot of good pictures of the car or parts. Its pretty sad how lazy I got with documenting this build considering all the writeups and pictures I did for
my last car (S14.5).
Im going to try to change that moving forward; I will update this thread with all future installs, including the TT kit which I will be installing myself.
Heres a few shitty iphone pictures:
The rear of the Z with Sunline addons and painted valance is my personal favorite:
The Stillen side skirts look like they were made for the Sunline rear, its a perfect match and most people ask me if this is the factory kit:
Playing hide and seek, the sneaky bitch:
Thats all for now, I'll be installing the powertrix coils and brake pads/lines hopefully before the TT kit arrives, so I'll have some more updates then.
