Looks great Spohn, nice to see you finally threw a build thread together! Do you have any more shots of the rear in particular?

This is about the best I can do for now. So enjoy my baby's got back pics. :icon17: Then the tag says Butts to top it off. Yes, this is the county name. Thanks for the comments. I plan to take more tomorrow.

Hey looks good!

Is that +22 with or without the spacer factored in?

looks good, but open rim design screams for a BBK.... if you're planning a next mod, I'd put a BBK up there. Honestly your car doesn't need much else, aestheticly speaking.

:tup:

The wheel itself is +22 then I added the 10mm spacer giving it a +12.
Your right. I'm aiming for a BBK and LSD by April. So it shouldn't be to much longer.

It really doesn't need much more. The headlights set this car of to me. Plus I'd like to get the door handles painted.

Thanls for the comments.:tup:

Nice looking car man! I hadn't even seen this thread. Can you get center caps for those wheels?

Good choice in mods!

Yea you can get center caps. But I personally like them without it. More of a race look. Which is what I'm going for. Now maybe if I could get a video like yours I'd be set.

Good looking Z man. Keep up the good work.

i dig it mang

looks good bro!!!! nice set of mods you got there :D

Thanks everyone.

Small upgrade today. Plus my exhaust will be here next week.

:tup:

I love the color, and your floor tiles.

haha.

car looks great so far, imo needs a spoiler

Yea I know. I have a couple in mind. But I've been spending my funds else where. Maybe by the end of the summer I'll have one along with a kit.

I used to feel that the spoilerless hatch looked a bit too plain but I now think that it really looks pretty good especially if the car is dropped on a set of decent wheels. That said, there should be a few new spoiler options coming out soon so who knows!


Example of how a set of wheels and a good drop look on a spoilerless Z

So freaking awesome!!!!!!!!! <3

hey spohn the headlights look good. they do a good job dont they. by the way I see you are from Butts georgia. you need a personal plate " c mor" would would work nicely for you. :icon23:

car looks good! can't wait to see it in a few weeks :tup:

I agree. I feel my wheels and drop (mainly drop) really set my ride off big time. I want a wing on the back. But nothing to aggressive either. I'm really going to take my time here until I find something that pops.

The headlights are wonderful. The chrome bothered me from day one. Now the car has more of a suttle look.

The "C Mor" that's funny as hell.:bowrofl: Yea Butts county is a joke around here.
Can't get here fast enough. Can't wait to get pictures of everyones ride to.

yeah the chrome bothered me as well. I always felt that it should have matched the door handles/rims rather than matching the hamburgers.

Yea, I need to get the emblems painted matte black also.

just get rid of them all together. I went with the z emblem on the front and nothing on the back since I went with the amuse rear. also I think 180 is one of the best companies i have ever delt with.

Updates To My Build
 

Well guys I have some more mods I finally installed this past week I installed the Stillen Gen3 intakes, GTM test pipes, Greddy TI-C exhaust, and GTM 34 row oil cooler. This car sounds bad a$$ IMO. But it's not for everyone. On cold start up it sounds real throaty. Then to take it for a spin and get on it is awesome. It's throaty at first then comes some rasp around 2500-3000. Then it just screams. All the good stuff I love. Even from the exhaust fumes. Makes me feel like it's true racecar. Hey that's what we are shooting for, right? :tup:

Then the oil cooler was a must for the hot Georgia summers. Being that I plan to do alot of spirted driving and some track days. I felt the 34 row was right for me.

good stuff! :tup:

<3

looks good dude... cant wait to hear it next week

NIOCE!!!!!!! loving the exhaust!!!! :D i wish i had your intakes right about now

Yea. Did you order some already?

no.... the insufficient funds bell just rang lol

on a serious note though next payday i might be picking up a good intake if not a coil over kit just so i can raise my car and not destroy my kit

Yea that would be a good idea. That you might be holding out for a GTM kit. Just kidding.

Car look nice man

Thanks. I have to tell you. Modding is so addictive. Is there classes you can take to over come this. Then again, why would I want that.

My dad's shop
 

Just thought I'd post pics of my dad's shop where all the work goes down. We both have put good alot of time and money in it overtime. The lift was the best investment we both could of made. We have about every tool you would need to get anything done.

My dad is a Volkswagen/ MG buff. He used to work as a VW mechanic in his youger days. I'll post pics of his cars/ projects later.
