Very nice my friend! Awesome transformation! But did I miss something? Was the car painted black after the built engine went in?

yes the car was silver originally then I wrapped it black. Silver and carbon fiber didn't look too good.

Life been busy guys and I have not had a chance to update This. In Feb 2017, I decided to build the Diff and add few suspension components (SPL endlinks and lockout kit). I also wanted to raise the car a little because the bodykit sits low making it very hard to drive everyday in the summer so I also installed the OEM nismo suspension as well. Here are some pics








Also one issue I had with the Z last summer were the brakes, I was changing rotors 3-4 times a season because they keep getting warped and that's only from SPIRITED DRIVING! So after some research, I pulled the trigger on the AP racing RADI-CALS from stillen which will be installed next week, here are some pics:








Lastly I decided to do some work to the interior of the Z so I ended up getting seats and a new steering wheel.





I will be tracking her this summer to see how she does. Next winter, I will be looking into custom coilover setup

After having done it a couple of times... How fast can you drop your motor?

I always take my time and there is no room in engine bay to do any work but I would say 2 days (about 20 hours) I can have it out with a help of one of my friends.

Absolutdly stunning and gargantuan those brakes! Price tag?
Beautiful steering wheel. Isit a re-trimmed OEM wheel? Who sculptured it?

Thanks Pal. Brakes were $6200 and were ordered straight from Stillen. The steering wheel was done by Carbonfiberelement (tony) here is the facebook link

He does great work and the steering wheel quality is top notch, the cost was around $850.00

lol I wish dude. I worked a part time job for 3 years to pay for this car and once I saved up the funds for the project I literally quit as I was working 70 hours a week and didn't have much of a life.

Dang, I thought it might be faster than that. Are you pulling it out the front or dropping it out the bottom still attached to the subframe?

Impressive

Right out the front, gives me more room and makes it easier on me as my engine lift is not the greatest.

I'm sure the savings from having to buy a box spring for your mattress or any furnature in your bedroom helped with the purchase price of all the goodies
