My 1991 Z 2+2 Build Thread

[whiterw]

So I just picked up my first Z and am slowly starting to love it. I've always seen these cars on the road and have seen a few at walmart parking lot "Car Shows." I've always liked their styling and couldnt be happier with the one i picked up.

I bought the Z with 160xxx on the odometer and some stupid 20" wheels with spacers.



So, I bought 350z wheels and took those hideous things off. (sold them for $550




After the wheels were put on, I purchased an aluminum 1 piece drive shaft, ralco shift knob, hid's, brake pads (Front needed some for inspection), and an interior bezel that i needed.

I'm also working on getting an ashtray cover, spare tire, passenger side door air vent cover, and some form of upgraded speakers (These bose are just awful with their age)


I'll posting pics and what not but I wanted to get this thread started so I could track the cars progress

Brakes are in!! I broke a brake line in the process and had to fit a new one in.


Here's the new rotor!


Old Broken brake line....

New brake line bent to perfection.

The weather was actually nice enough to take the T-Tops off.


PITA bleeding this system. but shes all fixed now.


The 300 and the 3000.... gotta admit they can ride together all day.

Looks great.
Switching those wheels out was a good decision.

Lookin' good man, keep at it!
And yeah, the 350's were better than the 20" Balla wheels, but mb battles will be even better!
