Well, I finally decided to jump on the bandwagon of fellow nismo owners and post a thread about the current progress of my Z. She hasn't got a name yet, still can't find one that fits her. Anyways, I bought her back in Feb 2009 after my 1st deployment and things are currently on hold yet again as i'm deployed back in theater. Don't mind tho, for now this is her current state, that is until I return from my deployment to a garage of surprises and wonder! Fellow nismo owners, enjoy!

Enjoy my very patient project!

Looks great bro! Where are you deployed to? I have done 3 tours to Iraq. The braces look great. Can you tell a difference in handling?

Nice! Loving the braces! Did you notice a difference? The nismo is already pretty rigid, but that front brace looks amazing!

I drove a sentra spec V prior and didn't really get much seat time with the Z before installing the braces (less than 100 miles). All I can really say is the ride is a lil bit firmer. I'm looking at adding whiteline sway bars though to decrease the body roll and some good bucket seats.

Great start on the car. Be safe over there.

Very clean man! Car looks great! Thank you for serving. God be with you.

:werd:

:tip:

Dido!!!

Looking good! Be safe bro.

car looks really clean...even from underneath haha

Thanks for serving and protecting, stay safe. Good looking Nismo or should I say Nizmo.

Thanx guys, I try to keep my OCD in check but with the Z, I just can't help but want to keep her pretty. But I still drive her like a sports cars, hard and fast (auto-x). I'm actually deployed in Iraq, next ones gna be Afghanistan then I should be done with deployment afterwards. Again, thanks for the comments and thank you for taking a look at my "NIZMO"

Hey Nismofreak....I have a silver Z also and am wondering how the Nismo stripe kit is holding up now that you've had it on for a while.

I'm considering it for mine.

Thanks!

its doin pretty good so far actually, cars been in stoage this past year since i'm deployed, but i had it on since april 09 and i only tore off a 1x1" piece while i was using a buffer on the hood, so, be careful with buffers and it'll last, and the red has very slightly faded

+1 :icon18:

^lol, my wife absolutely hates my car but i'm addicted to it like i'm addicted to drugs.....

err....i mean...WAS......cuz ya kno, military isn't allowed to do drugs......so yea.....go nissan!

A couple weeks left right?

:+1: You almost home?

yep almost, my MCR canards and voltex wing haven't shipped yet though >.<, so angry, i was hoping to sleep with my voltex wing until it got installed.....wait...that sounded wrong.....anyways yea, can't wait.

ROD, ever done work with a srt4 before? I'ma prolly be stopping by for some good ole' hangout's and maybe a lil bit of borrowing tools and plenty of duct tape :D
