Z's are going to be endangered like the 240s soon

Thats okay. Slow progress is still forward progress. I can say the same thing. Ive been planning my wedding and buying a house on a nice lot. My projects have taken a backseat after I got my Akebonos mounted to my Z.

Research and planning has been on my mind. I need to order a seat so I can do the door bars.

LOL, if you could only pick your neighbors.

There hasn't been a lot of action on my end. Hit a curb, bent a wheel, mounted a set of new wheels with ALL WEATHER TIRES. I'm signed up for a NASA event at Sebring next week. I'll be running HPDE events with my daily until the 240sx is track ready.

As for the 240sx: The side mounted seat mounts are finished and I began to rebuild the floor for the seat mounting frame.
