WOW kit looks good. I thought i disliked this kit due to the bolt/rivet look of the fenders. Car looks great. Congrats and sorry to hear about your engine.

looking good..are there many z's in SA?

noer

Yeah,

There are a few. We have about 40 supercharge 350Z's and 5 Twin Turbo Z's.
We have lots of Subaru's and Honda's with some hectic mods. I would say that my Z is the most customised Z in SA.
We have lots of hot cars in SA. The only downfall is that you have to pay your *** off to mod a car here. Prices have come down though.
To give you an example my car with mods is worth 120000 US Dollars in SA. I am sure you can build a sick Z with that money if you in the US.

I always need accessories and parts. Do you guys know of any reputable companies that will export parts to SA. I am looking for forged internals urgently.
