Why did you photoshop your license plate off your car in the first pic but then post a pic of you drifting where you can clearly see your license plate. That, to me, doesn't make any sense. All of nothing man.

ground my bump stops and ordered tein inner and outer tie rods, already have spacers for them, so angle is about to get a bit more extreme in the next few weeks
They were originally about an inch long. Once I buy a grinder of my own im going to round the ends more to fit in the cup.



sometimes i get to work and take pics, really a joy of a machine to drive too




Sneak peak of the angle grabber i got

Angle is in. Tein inner tie rods with spacer. Shaved bump stops after checking for clearances on different wheels I have. Outertie rods should be here early next week



planning on running 1/8th inch toe out up front, same for toe in out back, get rid of as much camber as possible out back, run a few degrees camber up front

whats peoples' opinions on the front camber for a daily driver that I also backroad and drift? Ill already be scrubbing tires with the toe, I was thinking ~3* camber but havent driven with it yet so idk

Thanks, always good to see people like it!

I actually just raised in about .5 inches so I won't scrape on the track. Going to give it a go at 200dod Dec 7th and 8th at Summit Point

Sweet car. Do you have any before/after picture comparisons for the steering angle mods? Very curious how much angle you got out of them

You make it real hard to fap when you stand in the pics like that

I love the color on those rims and name is sweet too. The lugs and rims are a good play on each other. Nice car

First time out at Summit Point for 200 Drifters of December/ Drift Nirvana, won't be the last

Here are a few videos of me drifting, you really have plenty of power with this car, supercharger would be nice though heh




In the front I was running 225s on 17x9 wheels here and theres plenty of room for improvement before I would need more. Best change I made all day was putting an R compound tire up front. The rears I ran whatever I had, 17s 18s, 265 was the biggest the rear saw

now its time to build for the winter. I'll edit a video with some more drifting soon. 350z is getting a new bumper and possibly going maroon with the wheels and then no more changes for awhile...

Ill be updating this build thread with my 300zx progress now as I get more serious about it and hopefully get it racing and drifting by this coming summer. Expect vh45 motor teardown and harness splicing soon. I am halfway done both
