Awesome! What pieces did you end up purchasing? Did you just order or did you just receive it? The wait is brutal but so worth it.
Picked up another GMak piece myself :icon21:! Thanks Brian McCann @azexiled for hooking me up. lmao! i certainly didn't get Garage Mak. I need to slow down buying parts. |
Haha I would but not a fan of the front half. I prefer the Nismo V3 and similar bumpers, would love the Garage Mak front diffuser though. As far as the front fenders go I'm still deciding on what I want. I have ideas but yea... Need to chill as well on mods this year :).

Put in some work today. On my way to having the OS Giken in the car tomorrow.

Finished up the install. So far it feels great! Night and day difference, the car squats really hard now.
https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....acb5e72e83.jpg Also gave it a nice wash. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....4f5986a07b.jpg |
Just curious. What exactly are you doing to the rear and why? I'm interested in knowing!! Thxs!!!
|
Do you mean why did I install the OS Giken? Or why I did the wide body? Both for pleasure. I think the Z looks great as is but it's not aggressive enough for me.

I have a base model so it came with an open diff. No problem until the wheels start spinning and or I'm coming out of a corner. The OS Giken is definitely going to help getting power down to the wheels. Ight and day difference so far. Love it. Have to get some track time now.
|
What type of break in is there for your new setup?
|
Do a couple burnouts, take some hard corners.
OS Giken diffs have no break-in requirements :). They're over engineered and built to last. Fitment was perfect. |
Was out early this am for a C&C. Buddies Supra tagged along.
https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....5a23cdc758.jpg Met up with another Supra owner, 98 Quicksilver (1-40ish) with a veilside intake manifold. 😍😍 https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....2e32deebe3.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....d3adb38734.jpg Lots of other cool cars. Should have some hd shots of mine soon. |
nice cars :) think I have seen your buddys car over at supraforums.com ....do u know if he's a member? and yes please post up some hd shots of your Z, this car looks sooo amazing!
|
Very nice work. Top quality parts just the way I like it! Keep it up!

More fun with the Z. Went to Harrisburg, PA for Supercars on state street. Had a little pre-meet before the meet... It was crazy.

Looks like that was a cool meet to attend.

More plans for the Z.
I don't know if people saw but I ended up picking a set of 6 piston 370mm brakes from Freni-One. Deciding on if I just want to get them painted and throw them on without a rear set up which will be coming eventually... I also got my hands on a set of Ohlins Super Autobach Hamamastu Coils. Special edition of the Ohlins, 11kg front/10kg rear. Decided to get rid of the Bilsteins and Swift spring set up so they will be up for sale after I get them installed. Last but not least, more big things to come! :) https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....ebafefb849.jpg |
https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....183edc75a2.jpg
Well these badboys came in today. I know the Ohlins themselves are pretty rare, might be the only Super Autobac Hamamatsu version in the states. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....60a71de069.jpg Can't wait to get these on the car. My Bilstein/Swift set up is super stiff, this will allow me to at least not feel every bump in the road when I want to just cruise haha. Front fenders are still in planning phase. Have lots of ideas, shouts out to Brian for letting me bounce them off of him. Want something similar to the Varis GTR and wide enough I can fit some 295's up front. We'll see how it turns out :). |
Very cool build, just looked through a couple pages & was understandably impressed. Kudos
|
Thanks! Appreciate it.
|
I'm not for sure if people were following my pick up of Freni-One 6 piston brakes and 370mm discs. Well if you were you might've been confused as to why they're already up for sale and it's because I did something crazy...
https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....72ae6195a1.jpg Impul 6/4 brakes. Stopping power for days. The build continues! |
