Posted up top of the Dragon. This is a must do for all Z and drivers alike! Zdayz is a must see and be apart of!!

Zdayz2017 prep has already started!

These are the new TE37rt powder coated. I missed my gold. I liked the red. It was unique. I might still get a second pair. 18x10.5 for track day use. But I love my cheap beat to $hit RPF1...


Updates : I need to lighten this fat pig up. Weighed in at 3522. Way to heavy to compete with gutted miatas in my SSM class. I plan to start by gutting the front ac parts, lighter seats(asm recaros up for sale), gut the rear speaker area...

She needs to lighten up big time

#bootysnorkler is a joke with some buddies and my better half... She is like Z in the rear

Awesome Awesome Awesome

Keep it up man, this and pretty much all progress/journal threads keep the dream alive for me even though my car is a turd right now.

I don't know how to word it but with the way you and others are going will/are setting the standard for builds in terms of rawness and functionality !

I'm just so happy when I read some of these threads

Thank you so much bud. Same with yours. I have learned and watched others. Trying to help/teach the new young guns, And I am learning a new way to mod for the track events and auto-x.

The best advise I learned has been ask questions properly and listen

Thanks again bud that means a lot!

MAJOR CHANGE : Update

Bitter sweet day. Happy sad however you want to put it...

I purchased an 08 Nismo PPW #1461.

I will be parting out the 03. Ill make a thread. AERO and ARC off limits. I will be holding that. Boost, Cosworth etc parts.

I look in the garage and I am sad and then happy. I am sure it will be the right route to take. I loved the Single turbo. The install by SOHO and tune was and has been amazing to me and the car. All I did was drive it and started to beat it up the last 3 years. I cant thank them enough! Great guys!

Danny at Slammered inc has been apart of the build from Day 1! He has saved her so many times and helped get her where she is/was currently. He is a TOP NOTCH mechanic! He does bag setups but if you need something complex he is the man to go to. He will still be involved in the Nismo.

The main reason for me doing this is easy of driving and "reliability". But you said it has been perfect. Yes it has been. Florida heat in the summer sucks. Florida heat sucks. The turbo / oil got way to hot for my liking. I could not get a full track session in without cool down every 3 laps. This past event autox I needed the car to cool down for 10-15mins between runs. Just was not liking it.

All that have read through the thread know I love this car. **** i bought it back. And if it comes back for sale in 3 years I might buy it back again. As I said I am sad and extremely happy for the future of autox and road course with the Nismo. I keep telling myself "stock,stock,stock" But I doubt it will be.

I will changed the title and keep this going. It may be obvious I love the Z33 platform!

You buy it from another member? How much does a nismo cost now a days? I stayed up late one night thinking about how I should've bought an HR the other day. Might follow in your foot steps one day.

I will be making a thread for the parts. Like I mentioned all Aero is staying with me. ARC staying with me. Cosworth turbokit etc is being parted.

Thanks guys. I am excited to start the HR adventure. Seems like a nice platform.

Definitely sell the car with the momentum parts on it, don't strip it of its glory. It will also make it much easier on you once you purchase the car back in a few years.

Who was it that said history repeats itself? Hahaha

Just playing around man. But I'm sure you'll probably end up back in the car, so might as well keep it boosted
