Well I figured I would try to keep up with everything I'm going to be doing to the Nismo. I previously owned a base 350z for 5 years and it went through a lot of changes while I had it. I miss that thing everyday but I'm too happy with my new (to me) Nismo 370.
Here are some pictures of my old 350z ImageUploadedByTapatalk1452531086.419082.jpg 2011 ImageUploadedByTapatalk1452531768.096454.jpg 2012 ImageUploadedByTapatalk1452531880.461609.jpg 2013 ImageUploadedByTapatalk1452531915.916639.jpg 2014 (sold it in June 2014) I've since bought a 2013 Subaru WRX, I missed my Z too much and I traded it in for the 2012 Nismo 370z I have now.

ImageUploadedByTapatalk1452532897.185948.jpg As of right now I'm waiting to make another batch of orders I'm just not sure what I want to order first. I'm also ordering new tires as I haven't driven the car in almost a month because it needs new tires. I'm really leaning towards the Bridgestone S04's right now.

I was driving on pretty much nothing.. ¯\_()_/¯ More updates to follow soon! 2012 Nismo Z34 #326

Little update on my Z
I decided to go air suspension as opposed to coilovers because I am wanting to go lower then I previously wanted to. I know that going lower on coilovers would've only brought more problems and I would probably end up damaging something. Anyways I ended up going with airlift struts and bags. I had the management (autopilot v2)/air tank/compressors from an old setup I had on a Subaru WRX. I literally only used it for 2 months on that car before I traded the WRX in for the Z. So far I'm just waiting on the new wheels to come in to order more parts. Anyways here are some pictures of the car now.

*Little update*
So I'm currently still waiting on the wheels to arrive but I have a very good friend who just bought out Brada Wheels (which was in terrible hands with the previous owner). He gave me the opportunity to rep them over the weekend at Import Alliance in Hampton Georgia. The wheels are only temporary but I did like the wheel he used on my car. Had I not already ordered wheels in February I probably would've gone through his company. Any who here are a couple pictures of the car from the weekend.

*little update*
The new wheels came in as well as a new exhaust. Currently waiting on tires to arrive to mount the wheels and align the car. I'll hopefully be finishing the exhaust soon with test pipes and possibly some headers (haven't decided)? Anywho here are some pictures of the wheels and exhaust!
