Wiggins3377's 40th Anniversary Z

Wiggins3377 · 09-16-2013, 07:31 PM

LCR Autowerks had fabricated it for me. They are a forum member.

In other news, one of the bigger mods I had planned fell through, so unfortunately the "big reveal" I had planned wont happen. That said I guess I can stop with teasers (except for one, I'll give a little hint below) and update everyone with my plans. I decided to get rid of the red accent color on the 40th and go with something that I think will compliment the color of the car more... Purple!!! I already started with the engine dress up, by upgrading all my silicone to the Samco purple (although im still waiting on my radiator and catch can hoses). I've also switched out my PWJDM dressup bolts with a set of NRG fender washers in purple. This weekend I'll be making a grounding kit in purple. Next I'll be sending my calipers to get powdercoated, after that... lets just say I made a purchase last week. It'll be here in 8-12 weeks.

My only hint is this: Its black, its JDM and well... think planets in the solar system.

Im a huge fan of purple (done right) as an accent. Cant wait to see it layed out. Purple will go way better considering it is in the paint itself.

The only thing running through my mind is Uranus.

Need another hint please! Please!

That's why I went with purple. The color will just look so good with the 40th. I'll take pics of the engine bay once its all installed. Right now it's a red/purple mash up

Radiator hoses are at the warehouse!!! Hopefully I get to install them this weekend.

U get er done yet??

Wiggins3377 · 10-02-2013, 07:20 PM

Radiator hoses are. However I haven't had my car for over a month. First the CSC now the IPDERM. Fighting Nissan over paying for the repair again...

Here's the best pic I have...

Luciano13 · 10-02-2013, 09:37 PM

Oh wow that sucks!! Luckily u have the Cav

TheGreatOne · 10-03-2013, 12:11 AM

Very smart going with purple on the 40th to compliment the bit of purple hue we have in the paint depending on the angle.

looking good...sucks about not having the car for so long though

subscribed!!! brother i never knew you had a journal... sorry for the late entry

simota1 · 10-03-2013, 08:06 AM

i just finished reading it.... loved everybit of it man keep it up

Wiggins3377 · 10-08-2013, 06:56 PM

Well i just received word from Mark at RavSpec that one of my big purchases is in, that said I'll be making my final payment tomorrow and will hopefully have the items in the next week. I cant wait for these, best part is it only took about a month to get them!! Much better than the 2-3 month wait Mark quoted me.

I've also accumulated a few more parts since my car has been sitting at Nissan, they include a Pivot Racing Radiator Cap (this is a small update), more Samco hoses to compliment the purple already in my engine bay, a self made purple grounding wire kit and a Top Secret engine cover. Cant wait to get this all installed before I head down to Import Alliance in Nashville later this month.

Speaking of my car sitting at Nissan, I'm finally starting to make progress on fried IMDERM. Nissan is sending a DTS (no idea what that stands for) agent to come out and look at my car. Hopefully he will find that the CSC was installed incorrectly and they comp my repair bills and even the other half of the CSC bill. Wish me luck!

I'll post pictures when i get everything.

GaleForce · 10-08-2013, 07:28 PM

Good luck with the DTS.

Luciano13 · 10-08-2013, 07:30 PM

Good luck brother!! The waiting game can almost take the best of us

simota1 · 10-08-2013, 07:38 PM
