This car is a DD, and will track it.

So ive tried to make it a nice street car.

Front-K sport coiloverSPL Tension Peak performance inner,outer.Nismo powerbrace300zx 30mm alum brakesCross drilled zinc coated rotorsHawk Pads(forgot which ones)

Back-K sportsMegan 3 arm setNew calipersSlotted rotorsD1 spec pmu pads

This is what i started the car out with, i had no idea about what makes a car, a car. Thank god i started out with suspension since it was super easy, and the whole underneath of my car is undercoated now and 0 rust!

Heres some pictures of the suspension build on the car. Currently im working on the engine/ getting everything good before the engine goes in.

When i first got it- horrid condition, thankfully i had motovation.





had to get a new one, i was taking the hoses off and the tube just, rusted away and broke >.> 30$ gone..

for a DD I'd say you have a killer setup. You'll be able to slay at any autocross and you have a laundry list of upgrades, but you chose not to break the bank and do custom stuff or super expensive pieces either. If my car had a setup like that I'd be proud of it. I'll give her a 10 for being a wicked dd
