Congrats on another clean Z.

Good to see I hooked you up with the Agency Power deal :thumbup:

Thanks!

haha thanks man, i tried seeing if i can beat his price but didn't find anything. He has best prices around!

Tomorrow the Agency Power Exhaust is coming in and next week time to place an order on TS Diffuser Shine Auto and will see how much work it needs to fit the Agency Power

Also i was going to buy a set of 2006 headlights off a local but deal fell through so i picked up the DEPO 2006 headlights, sti-r lenses, d2s 5000k bulbs, halos for the ironman mod, and top corner white LED PCB Replacement. I will update this once i get started on it :)

Quick Update to what i was up to past couple days.

Working on redoing the headlights, got started on the depo 06 headlights.

So i bought clear STi-R lens from theretrofitsource.com
35watt 5000k D2s bulbs theretrofitsource.com
Zled top corner led bulbs

The progress is paused for now because im waiting for OEM nissan ballasts to come in for D2S bulbs, and i have to redo the wiring on the 2006 headlights because the main harness in my car is 6pin while the headlight is 8pin. Oh and i still need to get the glue out of the headlights so i can reseal them, that **** so damn sticky.

And here is what happened with the test pipe bungs... The bung broke in a half when i tried to unscrew the o2 too much rust

And there will be many many more goodies coming!

Not a fan of yellow usually but your Z pulls it off extremely well

Good luck with your build

I wish I had a yellow Z :(

Thank You!

haha it's an awesome color! I never was a fan of yellow cars until owning one, you don't just see them on the road daily atleast here in Chicago.

Well after receiving the ballasts i was able to finally test out the light, i redid the wiring to 6pin because the new headlights were 8pin, it was pretty easy, but i also got help from one of the members from fb page. The hardest part of this whole headlight was resealing them back.

Here are couple pictures, don't mind the very blue picture my phone ****ed it up..

I haven't driven the car in a month and a half so im fairly excited to finally get to finish it in 2 weeks !The progress is moving fairly slow because of work and the shitty Chicago weather, and other things in the schedule but here are some updates.

1. The headlights have been all finished after having some trouble with the passenger side light. Everything was fine, i sealed it and everything and then i found my hair stuck on the projector shroud! So i had to bake it open again and resealed it, i went to test if the halo worked and it didn't! WTF!! So i had to buy a new halo and resealed the light. And yes i tested the halo before resealing. My cars headlight harness is 6pin while those 06+ lights are 8pin so i had to cut off the 6pin connector and the 8 pin connector and rewire it, but it works all good now.

2. Front swaybar has been installed and the car has been lowered 1" front and 3/4" rear.

3. I ordered Nismo Rear Add ons (fiberglass) and i wasnt a fan of the fitment because it left a gap between the bumper and the nismo add on, so i had to apply bondo to fill in the gap, sand, prime, and just dropped it off at the body shop to get it painted. Should have it done tomorrow

4. In a week the weather should be in the high 20s so it will be good to get the test pipes installed, the old exhaust dropped, rear swaybar. And replace with the new goodies :)
