What do you think of the new look?

You didn't think they were going on my Z did you?

We picked them up last fall and we're going to put them on my girlfriend Stephanie(NSR240sxe)'s kouki s14 in the spring.

We painted them to match the valve cover

Here's a picture of the car they'll be going on....

Hope you liked the pictures

Jerry as soon as a car comes into your reach it comes out super clean and always looks amazing how do you do it

They look great, be sure to post pics when you get them on the car

You did have me nervous for a second though, i thought they were going on the Z.

Yeah, my jaw was sinking lower and lower...by the thought you would actually sport hot pink.

Well done.

hey jerry, hate to break it to ya, but i think those are for a 300zx. so, with this new knowledge, i have no choice but to make you put them on your z instead. they will look quite nice with the white paint and the red interior. pink on Z32's=sexy.

cough.

They should look great on the car. We've got a big stockpile of parts that we've accumulated over the winter that are waiting to go on the car come spring

Matte black + pink = win. Think old challenger or panther pink 'cuda Pink definitely wouldn't look right on my Z though haha

Oh great - now the wife wants a 240 with matching pink accessories, thanks a lot!!

j/k - excellent job on the painting, should look pretty clean when it's all together. Here's hoping any painting I do in the future looks 1/2 as good as that!

Nothing wrong with the better half wanting a fun car too!

Thanks for the compliments on the painting, I've gotten much better over the years

We will eventually. I got an excellent deal on the calipers and rotors so we'll run with those for now

Its VHT brand paint that I purchased at Summit Racing. They offer a hot pink engine paint. Good up to 1200 degrees if I remember right.
