Here's a few more:




Car is still the same '03 I had last year, but now with 370z Nismo front end, VK56, and a bunch of other stuff I've been working on. Don't have power steering back in it yet, or the steering properly adjusted so it locks into place at full lock. It's a bit of a challenge to drive right now... going to fix that up this week.
Here's 2 corners of video from Saturday night.

Towards the end of the night, I made front end contact with Mark M in his 240sx when he lost a tire, I ended up lightly rear ending him. Did some damage to the front bumper, and bent two brackets which will take about 20 minutes to fix. No big deal, that's drifting

(Sorry for the awful photo, cell phone, middle of the night).
I also took my friend's e60 M5 out for a couple runs.

I'm taking this as Z33.4 conversion
That had to include fenders, hood, lights, bumper... Anything else involved with it? Was it a straight bolt on ordeal, or had to do modifications?

Lots of mods, and it's impossible to fit if you want a hinged hood.
Fenders (modified), headlights (modified mounting), bumper, hood (pinned).
The gap between the hood and bumper will be smaller, it gets larger as the car moves faster because I don't have it fastened in the front at all. I also had to modify the 350z skirts (with a cutoff wheel) and then make new mounting holes for them on the fender. I also have a decent undertray/splitter setup which I run at regular track days.
