Absolutely LOVE the look of the 370 Nismo wheels on the z33.... Both silver and dark. Best-looking wheels ever, IMO! I've seen pics of the silver ones on a Redline 350z..

Ehhhh, I was wrong.... still way too obvious and "added on". Will have the spoiler painted at the same time as the bumper so if I decide to put it on later, it will already be color keyed. (Also going to have my guy shoot the rear spoiler I was playing with a couple of weeks ago so it'll be ready to put on if I decide to spoil myself. )

Without spoiler:

All the urethane pieces (front, sides, rear) on the car are prominently off tone!!

With spoiler:

Not horrible, not great = Ehhhhhhhh

I really should just shoot the entire car.....

In case you're wondering what that obnoxious orange sticker on the windshield is, it's the sticker they made us wear for the parade lap at Laguna a few weeks back. Looks horrible but I like looking at it when I get in the car. Haha!

Put the z up for sale. I had came to the realization that its not the best idea to drive a high mileage sports car all over the place while not having the money to repair it. Can't afford to buy another car along with the z so its up for sale it goes.Really sad.

Mounted the Rays Track V1's on the '05 Roadster. I also swapped out the trim piece around the shift boot (it was scratched up looking from the previous owner).

That markes the beginning of a new engine build to support my Gtm TT kit

Did absolutely nothing to it... Feed it a tank Premium every week, and towel off the morning dew for good measure... besides that, it's just commuter work car that can weave through traffic quite admirably.

LMGT4's are my dream wheels for my Z but I'm debating whether or not to just powder coat my stock V1's..they look so good.

Took the Z33 to the 1st Ray Tribute Meet in Santa Ana recently. I'll need to file down the brake pads if you can tell. Overall, great event.

I bought BFG comp 2 A/S on for my Track wheels today. Supposedly Its the highest performing A/S tire next to the Pilot A/S +3. look forward to a nice review sometime soon...hopefully, I can pull some camber out of the rear (by raising my coils) then my traction should be much better.
