Well the Z has upgraded its status as it will no longer be subjected to daily driving duties. Just picked this up yesterday. Gave it a good wash today. Still needs some work but pretty clean for a used car. Pretty fun little car with lots of cargo room which I needed something with more utility with good mpg.

My wheels should arrive today! :excited: Hopefully get some initial shots up this afternoon for your viewing pleasure as well.
When I say should, I mean the FedEx website has 9/3 as the delivered date but the location hasn't been updated since 8/30 when they were still in Cali. So I have no idea if they are on a truck to be delivered or not. |
Well after a long wait my wheels finally arrived. I was sad to get home and see the sticker on my front door. Requires signature, yet I am at work all day. No problem called FedEx told them to hold it at the warehouse and I would pick it up by tomorrow in the Fit (see that thing is already coming in handy). But to my surprise the door bell rings shortly after. The FedEx guys figured it was a car enthusiast waiting on wheels so they swung back through after finishing the rest of their stops. Stand up guys :tup:
And let the unpackaging begin.... http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps55339570.jpg http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps8b1f9875.jpg That concave though....:yum: http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps44d89139.jpg The guys at Getyourwheels were awesome to work with and they handled everything great. Can't wait to see them on the car, hopefully this Saturday. Love how they turned out. |
That is a hot set of wheels...great choice.

Plastidipped the fangs and installed the Stillen splitter this Saturday. Also mounted up the Forgestars. Changed the whole look of the Z and I think it came out great!
Tape job took forever to get the lines straight. http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps09aff9a9.jpg Right after applying the last coat I tried to get the tape off as quickly as possible to try to get the lines straight. This was a FAIL! I was so frustrated by this point, but with this many hours invested I wasn't taking no for an answer so I forged ahead. It didn't come out flawless since I had to touch up both corners to get the outter most lines straight. But I am satisfied with it right now. I don't think I will get it painted permanently to where I cant go back to the PW fangs. http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps72f8cfa4.jpg After what was the Plastidip experiment it was time to bolt up the splitter. This went much more smoothly. Fitment was almost dead on. http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps2bcfe35c.jpg http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps159a8e6c.jpg Representing BamaGZ after all my hard work :tup: http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps003fed54.jpg More pics updated on Page 1. |
Wheels are sick bro!

It has been a while since I have done any updates. Finally had some time to install a couple of things I got over the winter. I have a couple more small things planned before Zdayz.
First up is Z1 hood struts. http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps5f379dd9.jpg |
Most recently I installed my Fortune Auto 500 coilovers. Went through some trial and error trying to get them adjusted. I think I got it close to where I want it now. Shout out to Marti @ Rev Works for the great deal and great customer service!
Started off sitting on the tires. Since I wanted to keep the splitter in one piece I thought it would be best to raise it some. http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps28d637ee.jpg Cleaned up and some quick shots http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...pse0a3331d.jpg http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...ps13477c0d.jpg |
Installed CAI

Taped up and ready for ZdayZ XI

We have the meats....
http://www.the370z.com/members/speed...285-35-18s.jpg Sneak peek from Jason at GYW. Best customer service in the business! They are scheduled to be here tomorrow. Plan is to get them mounted up and everything ready to go for AMP. |
Nice build!!
I wanted to ask, how do you like the fortune auto coilovers? I'm thinking about going the same route. If you can post a review or quick summary. Thanks! |
