Wiggins3377's 40th Anniversary Z

speedfreek · 09-05-2012, 02:44 PM

Sick ride man

I really want the Spec-ME lip now but only if I get it molded to the bumper like you have it. I doubt I can find anyone around here I can trust to do the work for the right price as well as do a great job. Worried about paint matching on the PW.

As far as a new front bumper emblem. Have you seen the Evo-R's new black Z emblems with the CF backing? I think that would set it off nicely. Unfortunately I don't think they are in production yet so there will be a wait.

Thanks for the praise guys. It took a long time for me to decide on this set-up, but I'm very happy with it. As for as molding the lip, I don't think it was as hard as it appears. Anyone with body work experience should be able to do it well. Another helper would be to look at 2theextreme's journal he has some progress shots that I gave my guy and I think they helped. I decided to just stop by my local Nissan dealer to get a new front emblem.

It's been awhile since I updated this, but with the new year I just made my first purchase for the Z. Put a down payment on a new set of GS4s. Went with 20" this time and got the glossy bronze barrels with matte black faces and a step up lip. I've got 8-12 weeks to wait, but should be here just in time for summer! I'll update with pics once I've received them. My next upgrade will be an exhaust or maybe something with the interior (considering a red shift boot or building a iPad mini in the cubby). On a totally separate note my intelligent key system went out on me a few weeks back, luckily I was under warranty so I just had it fixed.

Thanks, and thanks for answering my questions! You are one of a couple users who made my decision easier.

Ohhhh Bronze barrels, I think that will look awesome. Our 40ths look great with darker shades/colors on the wheels.

Nice mods though, love the Stillen sides and the front, they flow nicely!

Can't wait to see teaser pics of the wheels!

Wiggins3377 · 03-04-2013, 07:56 PM

Finally pulled the trigger on a used Fast Intentions Exhaust. I plan to clean it up this weekend and install the next. Still shopping around for their long tube headers if anyone has a set they are looking to part with.

Builds looking great! I won't get my FI, CF, CB system until June! Make sure u post a clip of how it sounds

Great looking Z buddy.

Mr&Mrs · 03-13-2013, 10:49 PM

Looking good cant wait to see the wheels!

Wiggins3377 · 03-16-2013, 06:37 PM

Installed the exhaust system today, I'm sure it's been said before about Fast Intentions' products... but all I can say I wow. Mine is the 18" resonator version and the sound is amazing. I originally planned on adding their long tube headers to the setup, but I'm fearful it may be to loud. Starting to think I may just go with some high flow cats and call it a day. As for driving around with the system, I've already hit the cans a couple of times on my H&Rs. Think I'm just gonna have to be careful when I'm driving on rough roads.

On side note... I really need to clean my car.

If you can find some used Motordyne Art Pipes (V2 or V3) those go great with the Fast Intentions exhaust. Also art pipes keep your low end torque compared to some other test pipes

I have the CF cans on my resonated 18" exhaust but I'm sure the sound would be similar.

Anyways, love your 40th buddy!

Just got word from RavSpec that my wheels came in a little early. Paid the balance today and they should be delivered mid next week. I'm a few weeks away from install as weather is still crappy in Cincy, but I'll post some teaser shots when they get in.
