Just got back from overseas, lots of items waiting to be installed! Quick update with some pics of new toys:

Harness Bar

Racing Brake Front Rotors:

Adams Polishes Detailing Kit:

Racing Brake ET500 Front/Rear Pads, Password JDM Shift Knob, Escort Radar Mirror Mount:

Koni Shocks:

Putting a lot of (perhaps misplaced) faith in the camera of the iPhone 4S lol, have to take some better pictures soon. Modding will finally begin sometime next week

Nice man! It's like Christmas all over again!

wheee! · 03-09-2012, 07:49 AM

I dunno Ed.... I think that's a lot of stuff at once. Might as well give me the Koni's to test out for you while you install all the other goodies....

Where did you get the harness par?

Harness bar is courtesy of member BGTV8 (Robin) really hooking me up, he had these made in AUS by a company that has since closed, however he was able to grab the remainder of their stock before they did. He still has the jig and I believe he said he could get more made on a case by case basis, you would need to contact him for details/quote.

Ah, sounds good. I will wait to see how your install goes and review.

Ok, some updates! RE-11's should be here Monday, then need to get them mounted and balanced next week on the Advans. Calipers are coming back from Mike mid-week next week, so I'll have to get those put back on with the new rotors and pads before taking it to the shop for the suspension. Also, waiting on the headlights, they are at 180custom right now. I have decided that the new "demon bolt" is not in fact the one on the stock cats as that was no big thing to get off. It is the one on the drivers side suspension, that goes through the bottom of the strut. Because this bolt cannot be taken out, the whole suspension will now be getting done by a local shop. Oh well.

Got the taillights back yesterday and reinstalled today, they look amazing! The paint looks so much better than the film did. Forgot to take pictures though

Door handles are off the car (That was not a good time

) and out getting painted right now as well as the side markers.

I did get one package in the mail today:

Also, because it was fairly nice out this afternoon, I thought I'd snap one more pic of one of the rear wheels before the tires go on next week. I am so excited to see these things on the car!

That's it for now, many more updates to follow!

All sorts of of goodies. Can't wait to see them on the car. Repped

edconline · 03-21-2012, 08:00 PM

Thanks for the rep!

FairladyZ10PG · 03-21-2012, 10:34 PM

I miss the advans so much

Can't wait to see them on your car.

wheee! · 03-22-2012, 07:25 AM

Don't be silly, those are the retaining bolts for his harness bar...

YIKES!

So got the handles back last week, they look amazing! they were even able to get the screws that hold the buttons in out without stripping them, (and confirmed that there is an insane amount of locktite on them) so the paint around those should hold up a lot better. The side markers look pretty good however, right down in the edge of the Z logo there are some spots that may need to be touched up, apparently they were hard to tape off.

Pics:

Also, UPS left a package for me today:

RE-11's are finally here! 305/30R19 rears and 275/30R19 front. Now that there are here, I definitely notice the difference in OD between front and back, hopefully small enough it won't matter though. Not sure why Bridgestone doesn't offer the 275's in a 35 aspect.

Have to wait until late April to get these bad boys mounted and installed as I will be out of the province
