I say if you have all the means to do it then do it. a ls motor would also be sick. Or a boosted 350sbc. Either way it will be a crazy car.

thanks man, me too, seems like almost every one i've seen is half assed together or the body work is shotty. my buddy is trying to do the conversion to his coupe and..well, words fail to describe.as far as wheels go, i'm lookin at a few different options; cleaning up the hasemi's that were originally on the car months ago
some work vs's that Jspec's got for sale
or some kakimoto's that jspec's got for sale
the panasports belong to my buddy, i'm not too crazy about them, they're nice but they don't really fit the car. i really wanna get my hands on some '07 nismo 350z wheels or some work meisters.

I'll have some daytime pics up today. I gotta make some room in the garage for her so she can come home today and then me and my buddy who is the mastermind behind the body work and paint will take it to a good location for some real good high-res pics.

I've always though R32 spoiler would be too high for vert, but it looks really good on your car.

Wow, this is truly brilliant. When I first saw the thread title for the first time I said "uuggghhhhh" to myself, but I was compelled to look. I am glad that I did. And just checking up on it now that it's done... I am truly impressed with the workmanship that went into it. Amazing. Inspiring.

well thank you sir, and i know what you mean, I've seen some terrible work out there. when I first started out with the build I got nothing but crap for a while but now that its done I think all those haters are eating their words 
I always say, do it right or don't do it at all
