Default Got bored, took some pics.

Was home this weekend visiting and decided to uncover the Z and take some photos. Car was kinda dusty (car cover not doing as good of a job as I hoped) and my camera is only 3.2mp so dont hate on my photography skills too bad:





Some custom intake shots:



And Some More:

looks mean!
But I never understood why do a single exhaust with a car that has a dual stock (which looks amazing btw).

OEM is a single exhaust, just dual tips. FYI

Looks good BTW

car looks great, but i don't understand why you have the air duct there when the intake is in the center of the bumper.

Pictures look great!! How do you get the intake tube to be longer on the vortech? Add anymore power or just for looks? Also, will I be able to get that to fit on a G (intake piping) thanks man... CAr looks amazing!

Thanks for the comments guys! To answer a few of the questions:

The lip is Seibon CW (C-west Replica)

The domo-kun sticker I purchased on ebay.

I made the custom intake because TIMROD showed me that the stock Vortech filter is drastically undersized for the application, and also the stock filter is pretty much impossible to removed for cleaning. I am not sure if it made power because I installed it at about the same time i did the 3.12 pulley and a new tune so of course it feels way faster

I keep the car covered up at my parents house in Tampa, I recently moved to Ft Lauderdale for Pharmacy school and my apartment isnt exactly in the best part of town

Lol, I have had the varis duct for like 2 years, and I added the custom intake much later.

I have the parts to make one but, I have not gotten around to it. What filter did you use? Is there some sort of offset piece between the elbow and the s/c in your pics?

K and N
Part No RC-4630

I did have to use a offset piece of piping, used a 5inch diameter piece of alluminum tubing that we capped on both ends and then cut offset 3.5 inch holes on each side to get the appropriate offset.

Looking good... I see that you have a C-West Lip (I think) without side skirts or rear and it looks fine. I want to do just a lip as well, but thought the C-West would be too much and make the car look uneven... thanks for changing my mind.

BUT STILL SO CONFUSED....
