also what type of clay do/did you use?

And why is everyone on my *** for using canards? hahah damn you guys are hostile!
Already got some quotes on the vinyl, wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Signals are only $20 bucks lol and yes I no the lighting conversion is going to be expensive.

I always use Meguiars car products. lol the canards are very popular, a lot of people like them.

Kiwami Reps? Damn, Rota/LN don't waste time do they? lol.

Anyways, looking good so far, OP. Nice to see earlier Z33's still getting modded. It's always refreshing.

Put on the canards, if you like aggressive look. I liked the v2 canards so I have them on my Z.

Didn't do it yet. Re-read my post.

Considering that I'm not that low and my damping is set to 15/30 right now it rides pretty good. When I get low pro tires, more low, and stiffen the damping it's probably not going to ride good at all. I went with 12/10 spring rates also.

Finally got the tires on. Went with 225/35/19 and 255/35/19. Tires are hankook ventus v12's.
The white stuff you see is not scratches, it was used to stretch the tires on.

Test fitted my VIS nismo v2. Fitment was pretty good. I didn't bolt it on I just slid it into place.

Also decided to test fit my front wheels.
I pushed it up with a jack but not all the way.

It's easy... just pull the inner fender off and it goes right in. don't waste your time pulling the bumper off to do it unless your changing that too.

Just wondering, how come so many people are putting such small tires on their cars these days? Bigger ones work better

There are 3 main reasons, first is the HellaGay thing, they actually think it looks cool or something. Next are the people who don't know how to research , measure and don't understand tire sizing. Last we have the broke *** kid who is pinchin his pennies.
