???????????????????????????????????????????????
why

I understand projects to make your car unique. But that's like when I saw a post about an automatic shift boot. You're spending money to impersonate something you could just buy?

I understand the z34's have better performance, but I personally like the z33's style better. I think the "fangs" are ugly as hell.

It's your car and your money, but that doesn't make it not stupid.
You're making us young'ns with lower budgets look bad.

Not really too sure why there is so much hate on the build.

Its not really personally my taste but it looks like OP did a decent conversion. I would be interested to see a side shot to see how everything lines up.

People have being doing Kouki conversions on 240s for years, i did a 97 front end converstion on my 95 maxima, thats a VERY popular front end retrofit....

I gota 68 grill on my 71 datsun 510 cause i think it looks better....people still rock SSS badging on old datsuns as well as valve covers and stuff even though it never was an SSS.

I could go on and on, the main thing is that you play it off right, certain conversions just look stupid no matter what (ie skyline front end conversions on s chassis). As for OP i highly recomend ditching those i sunk my battleship wheels and get something that fits nicely for starters. Besides that, i think it has a bit of potential. Gota get some better pics though

Why didn't you just buy a Z34. Nowadays their value is dropping like a sack of potatoes just like the 350. IMO the Z34 doesn't look any better than the Z33 to where I would waste money on a conversion. If anything people should try to make their own cars instead of impersonating others.

^the hypocrisy in this post is funny

99% of all peoples cars on here look like someone elses. You really think anyone is gona "stand out" and be "unique" cause they spent 4k on some custom made Work wheels and a "legit" Ings kit? its all been done before....It either looks GOOD or it doesnt.

Thats just my opinion, im not really sticking up for anyone. I shall digress lol

^ WHY the ill will towards the kid. He has the money or his parents money. Let him do whatever he wants. It's like me saying hope your family dies in a fiery crash. I hope he does the conversion and he gets to enjoy it.

Looks like you took your time and did it right. But that front end does not match the body lines of a 350Z at all.

A decent 370z even 2009 will cost around $23,000 plus tax, financing etc.

Front looks good but doesn't flow.

I personally prefer the look of the 350Z over the 370Z!
