Those are just about my favorite wheels...I'm still considering a set sometime. They have that classic kinda style that always looks good on a Z. Nice ride dude!

My comment was directed at you painting them, but good job on upgrading them.

everyone has their own taste, i think they came out pretty nice...but i'm not going to pretend like they are a BBK though like the people buying those fake ebay BBK caliper clip ons, which i've actually seen one out here in dallas!

Nice look overall

as for the calipers im not feeling it. No need to make a tiny base model caliper "POP". Last thing you want is people to see it. If it were painted a nice silver just to have a cleaner look would have worked better imo.

well i have a red theme throughout the engine bay to the rear of the car so it just suited it better...i'm not too worried about what people think about them since they work for what i need them for and IMO looks better than stock...if i tracked my car more then i'd get BBK but that only happens every blue moon, granite i almost got some of those akebono brakes and was going to powdercoat them red but just don't need BBK for mostly DD.

Is that stock suspension or are these pictures updated with the coils? If it's stock, it looks good as is. I like it a lot. I'm definitely getting P45's with the red lip.

Hey, looks clean. It will really look nice when you drop it. You can get away with a pretty nasty drop and only need to buy rear camber and toe. But if you got with true coilovers pick up the SPL pro midlinks. Dont get radius arms to adjust the toe.
My car is slammed and i have nothing but my toe in check on the front w/ -5 camber and the tires wear decent. My rears at that camber were being replaced every 6-8 weeks..

Anyways loking forward to your progress!
