I don't think there would be a problem if you buy the abs replica spoiler. The bumper on the other hand I would but the authentic one just to make sure fitment is on point and it's abs for durability. It's all about patience and persistan when it comes on finding v3 parts. Keep checking fb classifieds and ebay. Search for "350z oem nismo" and if you find any original part from the nismo z check into his other stuff which most of the time he has more than one part feom that car laying in his inventory. I saw a guy that is selling his complete near mint v3 rear bumper in nogaro red with blinker light assembly and all for 900 obo free shipping. I would place an offer and see where it goes.

On another note I started the first mod of the year, I scored a nice nismo differential cover for a steal and restored it. Now I'm obligated to find a nice lsd to go with it. I have a pumpkin laying around in the garage that I'll start building with new parts. My plan is once it's all completed with oil and all I'll swap the vlsd pumpkin I have on the z now. I think this year I'm gonna do drivetrain mods and start on my deteriorating interior. Sunday while taking an uncomfortable nap in the z I noticed the cloth of the headliner is staring to sag where the visors are. Also the leather of my steering is wearing pretty bad.

But when one owns a Nismo, one doesn't want to hear there's MORE as any number quoted above the actual number of 1607 makes it that much LESS rare. Hahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

I keed! I keed!

I love this build! As a fellow Nismo lover I appreciate what you have done! Good to see the attention to detail to Nismo-fy your Z!

Sorry fellas. I'm running 10 mm front and 15 rear spacers. tires are firestone firehawk wide oval 285/35 R and bridgestone rea50 265/40 F on tanabe sustec pro 5 coilovers. Im on oem spec alignment. Kinetix A arms and spl rear toe arms and bolts. I'm gonna go 35 profile on my front tires because I find them too tall for the 18 inch wheel. Even though both front and rear have the same diameter and fill the wheel wells equally. I hope this helps.

Yeah but I don't know which. There are some that you have to drill through the bell housing and other like z1 that modifies like half the transmisión and costs lie 400 plus labor to buy. Zspeed sells a heavy duty stock csc that's what's calling my attention at the moment it's $190

Zspeed has done some great work with our cars, I am running their tilton racing cmc upgrade. I would call them and get some details. Cut out the middle man and hear it from their lips. Z1 does great from what I have read as well but agree that may take more work.
By the time I did my cmc and slave upgrade on my de I was close to $300 with lines and fluid.
