Id be converting that transmission before I do anything else!!! But im not going to start a manual over auto battle lmao.
Too late
Meh... one of my my other cars is manual and more for playing. And I do pretty well in my auto Z in autocross, like taking 4th place overall in the last event, so that's ok. Seems like over 90% of the people mod their cars, get lightweight parts, and put stickers everywhere but don't even take their cars to the track anyway. LOL
I like your interior wrap man, reminds me of mine! Haven't seen anyone wrap our headliners in it before. Personally, was gonna say I prefer 3m's 1080 line. I would also use the primer 94 sparingly, and primarily on backsides. I have had issues with it causing tears in vinyl and making it stick to areas too much when it came to actually wanting to work the material.
Thank you! It's still a work in progress, but it's coming along. If you want to check out anymore pics, I've got a thread going on in the interior & exterior section.
Today, I had my Z a photoshoot! Should have pics by Thursday. Also got a nail in my front brand new tires, so went and got it patched along with a Mobil 1 oil change.

Thank you I'm sure you intended to do it anyway, but be sure to post up the pics when you get them!

I ordered a 5'x50'. I ripped a hood (probably 6 ft section) a rear fender (another 6) and a side skirt (7 ft, but I may have used a 3x7 ft part for something else? I don't remember) so to some negligence and learning the material, and in addition wasn't too smart probably about management and had a lot of extra materials in some areas. I ordered another 20 ft, but think I could get by with about 20 more. So 45-60 ft is probably the magic number. Maybe someone else will comment on this, but 45' will at last give you a huge huge start, and if you needed to pick up another 10-15 feet it wouldn't be the end of the world. What color and make are you going with? BTW, I 100% recommend 3M over the other companies I have used (Hexis).

That's what everyone I've talked to has said! I wasn't sure how a matte color would work on a Z because usually they compliment cars with a lot of aggressive body lines, but it really helps to exaggerate the lines our has!
