I guess I will start it back up from winter 2015.

So my little guy turned one, my wife went back to work and I could safely breath again and feel ok spending money on my Z. Lol not so much me, more my other half would stress thinking I should wait till she went back to work. So I did, one year off mods it sucked Z wise :thumbs down:

I started off buying a shift knob as I knew once I installed the kit I had from thecarkitcompany, I would destroy my OEM one like most others…… and I did lol.

So I now have the Bypass kit with a rear view camera and this knob

Looking back I realized I lied……….winter 2014

I installed a set of used SPL rear camber arms I got off a member WoRM IIRC

Really crappy old cell phone pic, should note that cell phone has been replaced it was scratched up and hurting……




I also got around to installing the Zspeed under shield. Which I have since traded for a used '13 Nismo front bumper I know have the Nismo Zspeed under shroud.





DISCLAIMER *** I DO NOT USE PURPLE POWER :yuk: REDLINE ONLY!!! It was just the box the local parts guy put my 12 bottles of Redline in from the shelf

After the sway bar I locked down a deal on a set of stance GR+ true type coil overs

***space saved for when I find my coil over pics pre-instal***

so then I obviously needed more SPL parts

Went full rear SPL and added the toe arms, traction arms and the eccentric lock out kit fully adjustable rear suspension.

***space saved again***

photo bucket is taking forever to update sorry


Next on the suspension list:
SPL Front camber arm
air ride setup further down the road after some wheels

how about a temporary teaser for what it's leading to!

Mike, Next time you see your Z check the gap between hatch and rear bumper. Let me know what you think.
