How much heat did you use? Any tips when using the heat gun?

And where's the updates?! You loaded all the mods on the first page. lol

Those headlights really make a difference, nice job man.

Thanks Dallaz! I wont be needing the intakes for my next mod.

Just enough to soften the plastic and the glue inside. Once u pop the housing apply heat as you pry it open. An extra person will be good. I haven't done anything else to it yet, those are mods that I've done for the last few months but never got around posting lol. Big update soon though!


Thnx man. They really do!

OIC :stirthepot:

Amazing thread Ron! :tup:

I got to see your car in person today at Cars and Coffee, and the pictures/write-ups don't do it justice. It's gorgeous.

Looking forward to further write-ups.

Thank you!! I had a great time this morning. It was freaking cold lol but it was nice meeting the other Z guys/gals.

So far great job bro....very clean!!! Looks like you need to add some cf to that ride tho. Hit me up:tup:

Alright small update... I shouldn't have bought this but I got a good deal and couldn't pass on the opportunity:

Installed pics on monday! I'm still waiting on another piece for the engine bay..

Very nice, Ive seen your car around. Hopefully get to meet you soon. Keep up the good work oh and when you are ready to sell intakes, hit me up. Ill go pick them up from you.

Holy sh!t I'm jealous! Ive been wanting some carbon under the hood. Can't wait to see installed pics

Like your car, I'm also patiently waiting for pics!

Looking good Ron. I got to meet you and see your car at the November Cars and Coffee.

Believe me guys, I have yet to see a picture that does justice to Ron's car. It's gorgeous. Tastefully modded, perfect stance. :tup:

Thanks man, intakes should be out soon, I'll let you know when they are available. C&C is in two weeks, come out!

I was supposed to get the part I'm waiting today but USPS shows its still in CA so I guess it'll get here Monday or Tues.

Thank you sir, I'll be there for the next as well.

I'm going to miss the next one since I'll be out of town.

When January rolls around, I should have the Nismo front bumper on the car, the door handles painted, and the springs and spacers on.

Got the call from Manny at Baker this afternoon that the bumper is in, but the brackets are on back order. I had hoped to have everything done this week, but it wasn't meant to be. With all the travel coming-up over the next three weeks, it's probably going to be the first week in December before things can get done.

Love the black fuel gauge mod. How did you go about keeping the E,F, fuel symbol and dashes in perfect order?

It's a complete overlay that has the letters and symbols already printed on it. So all I did was:

1. Mask the orange letters/symbols on the stock gauge
2. Paint the gauge black
3. Scrape the orange paint from the stock gauge,
4. Stick the overlay on top.

You can probably get an overlay from Black Cat Customs. They don't stock them though, it was made by request from a forum member here, Digitonium. He did his and sold me the spare.

Be safe on that trip. Nismo front end FTW!

do my headlights! I'll give you a surprise!

Let me know how to PwJDM stuff fits, I'm looking into those myself...

Was it a one time deal? or somewhere online? :D

http://www.the370z.com/drivetrain-en...nt-covers.html

Coupon code THE370Z I think it's still active. I'll let you all know how this stuff fits soon :D

yeah I plan on coming out to C&C, couldnt make it to last months because I went out of town. Thanks for the coupon code, was going to ask about your good deal. I need more carbon ;)

yum, what tyres u fancy?

Ron - when you get ready to change wheels, we need to talk. I'd like first shot at buying your factory Nismo rims.

Mike

Not sure yet, need to figure out wheel sizes/offsets and all that.. but you know I really shouldn't be buying wheels right now lol.

Hey Mike, I think I might keep the nismo wheels man.

No worries. If they are ever available, I'd just appreciate you keeping me in mind.

BTW - those ADV10 wheels were gorgeous!

Those wheels would look great on your Nismo :tup:

aaaaand I just got a quote for them... brb gonna find other wheels

Easily $9100 in wheels.

u said it

!!!!

What type of wheels you looking for? Concave?

Step lip or concave.. I liked those ADV10 cuz they have both :D SSR SP3s are nice but I don't like the convex face on them.

I used to have mesh wheels so I want something different. I guess most concave step lip wheels will run for over 5k-6k then

Yes sir. You gotta pay to play. Concave is a fad that is dying down IMHO.

hmm so apparently that wheel has a lot of options that I don't really need and some others that I can do without and still get a similar look... let see.

Picture time!

Fitment... hmm could be better. I had to grind some of the edges on all the Password:JDM pieces, the battery and master brake cylinder covers where hitting the hinges on the hood when closing. The radiator cooling plate needed some trimming near the headlights... Took me 10min to fix so def not something to keep you from getting them.

Dat looks nice man.

Wow! I want

nizzice

That didn't take long Ron!

Looks great. :tup:
