Paint work has started and hopefully car will be have today or tomorrow the paint job. All doors, trunk and hood (will be) were removed for the primer.





Primed fenders


Primed doors


I opened up all the locks and fittings, even window channels


Managed to get an old 280ZX hood scoop, was thinking of doing something custom but then as it used to come on a Turbo Z so might look better, atleast will throw direct air on the turbo



This is where it will be cut


took out the front damper for paint


Got a used grill off ebay as well

I have bought the new brakes or the car as well

Brake booster I have changed locally taking it from a 280Z will work better with all the stuff I got rest are all new items.

The stock rear brakes are not disk and I am converting to 4 pot front and 1 pot at the back all disc, so for that booster and mainly master cylinder needs to be changed. Got 1' or 15/16 master cylinder (heard its made by Wilwood). It will give less play when brakes are changed and will carry 14% more brake oil.



For brakes I went with stage 4 Front Big brake kit from silver mine motors


for the Rear got a custom Stage 2 kit from datsun parts, the kit includes:
Rebuilt Maxima Calipers, new brake rotors same as for front along with brake pads and mounting brackets and E-Brake brackets and SS lines.




In addition I bought a wilwood proportion valve as well as it was needed

Front air damper and bumper installed




Trying the fender flares


Front caster is too much out


Rear not sure this
