Wheels are too old looking and big, this isn't a donk.

Welcome to the forum. Well done rescuing that poor Z. There must have been packs of potato's growing on there!!
Decent detail always makes a difference.

Paint looks great, wheels would have been cool in 2003 but look dated in 2013

Well...I expected the hate on the wheels because I saw the 20s wheel thread. As for the paint the front clip was repainted by a shop recommended from my local Nissan dealership. As for the interior I have a new "used" steering wheel that's going in soon. Everything else I do I'll create a build thread but thanks for the "kinda sorta" welcome...

I actually just posted above? I'm almost amazed how much you guys suck...I've been part of other forums where we learned things from each other and discussed our cars. Instead I find myself here with a bunch of trolls fling me because I introduced myself? Awesome...class move guys.

Seriously dude, welcome! Nice save, but don't take things too personal. Having said that, save for suspension & possible new rims.
