I autocross at route 66 in Joliet. Ill actually be at strats tonight with a bunch of friends. You should come by so I can finally see your car. I really don't know of any lots unfortunatley. You were at my store on Roosevelt. My friend saw your car and took a pic of it lol. We do hire 16 year olds. But we just hired a guy last week so I don't know if you'll get the job or not. Email me your phone number so we can meet up this week. Spring break!! I'm working on my car all week!!

Update!

- 300zx brakes installed- greddy lip installed



brakes all on. redrilled the rotors myself!





ill get more pics when its hopefully warm and sunny out tomorrow!

so as it turned out, i was sold the 26mm 300zx brakes. this kind of pissed me off because i was told they were 30mm. but oh well, S*** happens. i brought the rotors i had back to autozone and exchanged them for the 26mm ones. the greddy lip i actually picked up for $50, but it came in 3 pieces. i dont have any pictures of it but i fiberglassed it back together, sanded it all down and then painted it. i may be putting gloss on the sides/lip, i havnt decided yet.

next to come is

- kouki tail lights (possible black ebay led ones)- JDM kouki rear bumper with valances- JDM kouki wingthen it will be back onto the engine with a holset turbo with all the necessary equipment
