Default My Silver Fairlady

Hey guys, this is my photo thread and it will be updated regularly with the fairlady's progress
First off this my old Celica

Which I traded in for the Z


Took some pictures


















Went to a track day (Great fun)





Resulted in me getting new brake pads and rotors along with high temp brake fluids. The pads and rotors are TRW brand


^^^ The brake dust from the day
This will be going on soon

yes I am aware it's not lined up properly in the picture and will do the bumper tuck mod after.
Next plans are wheels, lower and big brake kit. Later on would like some leather seats to replace the fabric ones.
Thanks for looking

Having great fun with it just can't wait for the wheels as that'll make the car look a lot better. I just want the Z to look clean with nice wheels, exhaust, and a drop

The Celica looks nice it almost seems as if I've seen it on nc.org
The Z is definitely way more fun though!

So today my exhaust arrived and I went to the shop to put it on.
Quite a unique design the exhaust had, with a rear sway bar of the car a funny shape and all that to make it fit.
Anyways here are some pics





And after that I decided I like the bumper tuck look, so that's what happened




Thanks for watching
