Haha, yeah... I got that question over on the G37 forum as well... it have a couple of lifts but I did not capture the car while it was on it... the pics with the motor coming out are actually on a lift, just not all inclusive pictures I guess.

Damnit Larry for still getting more attention than me on my build thread (kidding, I added pics with that car in it for a reason)... yeah, that Z33 is on bad machine! They are making custom over fenders and they are going to be gorgeous and most likely for sale once they are done. It is the shop car and the owner who is doing this custom work recently broke his foot unfortunately so it as been delayed... I will keep you guys updated on it though as well!

I had to switch up my stance and raise the rears to get some kind of traction. U seem slammed there or the custom body kit gives that appearance. What r u gonna do for traction?

I am on a full UAS air ride system over my KW-V3 coils so I will be able to adjust the stance for function for sure... I just need to get some more meat on the bones of those wheels now!

I have no intention of tracking this car any time soon so I am hoping this oil cooler will be enough for this setup... I honestly barely even drive this car but I do understand what you mean... the problem is that there is very little room for a large oil cooler with most F/I kits so most people build to their need and I am hoping that this is the extent of my need for now. In a couple seasons when I am ready to let go of this being a show car and start running some track days, I will re-consider this setup for sure.

^ this... thank you for helping elaborate. It is always better to be safe than sorry with F/I builds but again, application needs to be considered. I should have built out my motor and could have gone with a much larger radiator and oil cooler... I am jsut going off of what has been done already and it is my hope that I do not need this at this stage of my build.
