So, just a small update on my winter program doing up the Z.
The car was originally lowered on H&R springs, but i was finding ocassionally i would just scrape the bottom of the car where i live. I could happily live with that if i was going to keep the stock body, but as i'm going to be putting a bodykit on, i decided to raise the car a little. So, now it's sitting on the Tein S-techs. I've gotta say, i love em. The front is just perfect, altough i will be removing a bit from the rear springmount to lower the back a bit more.
Anyway i go the wheels mounted aswell finally. Volk CE28N in Titanium Gunmetal 19x9.5 / 19x10.5 (+22 all round) with Kumho Ecsta SPT with 255/35 up front and 275/35 in the rear, and the fit perfect. I couldn't be happier.
I also colour matched the door handles to the wheels. I didn't want to paint them black, as i think they are a feature of the car. The silver handles stood out like dogs *****, so i just toned them down, so now i think they look great.
Any way, tell me what you guys think so far.
