hdskull's Magnetic Black Z
Just purchased some new parts, and it's time to start a my own journal!
Purchased a Magnetic Black Base 6MT Z July of 2010, since then, I've added a few parts to it. One interesting thing about my car is that it's ran every single set of stock rims, from 18" to Nismo to 40th to sports package Rays. Interior
Exterior
Suspension/Wheels/Tires
Intake/Exhaust
Many thanks to Scott@Relentless Autosports, Lou@Amplified, kevin1985912, ilive2win, and anyone else who's helped me out :) |

I dont know if I like the nismos or the SSRs better! Either way, clean car and good execution

Fast Intentions exhaust installed
The fitment of the Fast Intentions exhaust is absolutely dead on/perfect. Sits perfectly flush with the rear bumper. I have to thank Scott @ Relentless Autosports for installing my exhaust with such short notice. I brought the car in before my final exam, and Scott dropped me off at school. Once I was done with my exam, he was already done with the exhaust install! Perfect customer service ftw! Thanks Scott! :tup:

There is no drone at cruising speed, and the exhaust is actually really quiet if I am just driving around casually (shifting at 2~3k RPM). The exhaust really opens up when I reach 4500RPM, and screams all the way until red line! Love it! :D |
Wheels getting installed

STi-R clear lens and painted headlight housing
This past weekend, I finally got to paint my headlights! This is something I've always wanted to do because the headlights stand out to much against the black color of the car. I originally wanted to paint the housing Nissan color code K11 gunmetal, but I was unable to get the paint in time, so I went with another gunmetal color that Kragen/O'Reilly's carried in store. It came out slightly lighter than I would've liked, but it will do for now :)
Bumper off with the Stillen Gen3's http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0325.jpg Headlights open http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0324.jpg Housing painted http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0326.jpg Clear lens installed http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0327.jpg Everything put back together http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0329.jpg Cutoff/output before http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0313.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0312.jpg Cutoff/output after http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0331.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...l/IMAG0330.jpg ^The wall is not perfectly flat here, there are parts that are concave, so it might look like there are ridges.. In the process of painting the housing, my friend also installed STi-R clear lens for my projectors. I've always been envious of his ZKW clear lens/TL projector combo, and now I finally have a nice cutoff of my own! Here are some quick garage pictures http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...d/DSC00151.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...d/DSC00149.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...d/DSC00145.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...d/DSC00158.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...d/DSC00154.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...d/DSC00153.jpg http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...d/DSC00167.jpg |
Good choice on the housing color. Cutoff is nice!

You're killing it w/this build! One of my favorite on the site, keep it going.
Headlights look awesome and stance on the SSR is perfect. Nice work man! Would love to see some video of the car in motion ... :driving: |
