Also partnered w Agency Power and Status Racing, at the end of the summer, my leather and suede carbon fiber seats should be ready to pick up and throw in the car.
Ill likely keep my saprcos and recover them as they are much larger than the status seats.. those are gna be race/ fun day/ show only seats.



will be reworking some interior panels so the stitch flows in the car like in this r35:







Also talking with Fortune about their 510 series w Swift springs and air cup kit.



Should have more information next week on a green light or not.


Wheels have been ordered, so its just waiting for the engineers to come up w the design now.

 

Always cutting edge, thanks man! All the Best.

 

boom.. awesome video by Cody Groom @cgroommedia

Car game and beard game - both strong. Loved the video Brian. Your Z is truly one of a kind.

 

video was a good watch. is there another pt2 for the sedan?

 

The fortune coilover/air cup kit are a pretty cool idea. Drive hard with them aired out to have the handling of coilovers and air up to make it through areas that have crap roads.
At least that's what I'm assuming the purpose is. Correct me if I'm wrong

 

Sick *** video bruh

 

When you wanna race for pinks?

 

FA 510s have been too harsh for the streets from what I've been reading on the Evo forums. Gotten quite a few negative reviews for daily. I just put in an order for the 500s with street valving.

Edit: Got some info from FA, reason why the 510s aren't as great on Evos was due to the stiff chassis. Stiff chassis and stiff suspension causing overwhelmingly stiff ride and not recommended for street use.

Luckily it turns out the Fortune guys and me have a bazillion friends in common, and I'm being greatly taken care of now that I am a sponsored Fortune vehicle as well.

We went with 14k and 10k due to the fact that I'm much wider than stock, and run r compound tires, which are also soft. The valving allows for a vast range of damping characteristic changes.. but we can play w it.

On top of this, the swift spring upgrade makes a vast difference in overall ride quality and harshness per whatever spring rate, so that's what I did.


Ill post pics soon, but its wrapped white now and I like it far better.

Front bumper still isn't done.. and I'm just waiting until May for my wheels to arrive and for my Fortune dampers and lift system to arrive.

As soon as HIN is over may 21st, we can remove the air bag system and start installing the new goodies.

 

I ended up with 14k 6k which is almost same front and rear after you do some magic formula since I'm running true type coils in the rear. Point I'm getting to they are custom valved to me car, tires and so on. And when I drive the car on the street they are definitely livable so I don't see OP having a problem

 

nice video

 

 

Awsome thanks for sharing, looking like you are out having fun!!

 

Can't wait to see some Status seats in this beast! IMHO will significantly step this build up! GL

 

so the fake aero stuff hanging off the rear isn't going to cut it.
The exhaust swirls enough that its discoloring my vinyl.

So we kill all birds w one stone and create real working aero for this turd.

Halving the do luck rear bumper, building a flat floor panel out of dibond and alumalite, new splitter, and a custom diffuser panel out back.

The only hard part that's a drag is that I may need to ditch the tomei to do this properly. If that winds up the case, Ill probably tuck an AP exhaust from another car behind the diffuser and just exit the exhaust into the diffuser flow and have the piping nipped up and custom welded.

heres a few rough pics. Everything will be black, the lines are just gray to show basic shape ideas.

All the cut angles on the bumper and the flares will match the angle of the superleggera fender line..











got the rest of the car wrapped up, and the do luck bumper finally test fit back onto the car.





I had the lines inside the opening pockets of the JP cleaned up and trimmed down so I can add gloss black powder coated mesh to the openings after it gets wrapped today. My cooler cores are getting beat up by fwy debris.

 

Looking good... If you gotta get an exhaust fabricated my vote is on dual.




Did you get them massive rear tires yet?

 

more suspension parts.. thanks Concept Z Performance!
