What did you do to your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

[Nis Mo Z]

Looks fantastic!
I’ve spent WAY too much time measuring and planning for spacers, and you can help me a TON!
Any rubbing at all with the 15mm/20mm?
Are you on OEM size Dunlops?

I am on oem Dunlops, however with the eibach drop and 20mm spacers in the rear I get a slight rubbing on the extended "widebody" fender add ons over dips in the road. I will swap the 20mm in the front and 15mm to the rear since the fronts are nowhere near rubbing

The front does sit a little further in.
Thanks!

Yup I agree that's another reason for me to put the 20mm up front because the rear might be 5mm too aggressive or I might try 10mm if it still rubs.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the flares are just for looks. Pretty sure the actual fender lip itself is in the same place it is on the Sport and Perf, they just added some plastic on top of it.

Yeah I think its for looks(maybe aero?) but that's what the tires are rubbing against because being a white Nismo you can see the rubber on it but it barely rubs it.

Took my mom for a ride.

Love the flag. It looks great!

Thanks! Note for anyone who is doing the same - don't use command strips on a rough textured wall. They all fell down (except the Nissan one ) I plan on using thumb tacks in conjunction

Picked up an ‘08 350Z and it needs some work. Fixed a loose rear turn signal lens. In the process of fixing curb rash on the rims, painting the rims, and installing new tires.

Next will be to fix front bumper cracks, install front fender liners (missing), and front skid plate (missing). Also need to replace the front windshield.

You got special plans in mind, or just getting it back in top shape?

It’s a project car for me and my kids. Plan is to first getting it in top shape. After that, we’ll see. Nothing too crazy though. They’re still in school and don’t want them burdened with a money pit like their old man did.

After an extended weekend and scenic road trip in the Z, I washed and waxed the lovely machine and tucked it snuggly in the garage. Good job, Z!

Sorry, I didn't sing it any lullabies. I didn't want to scare it.

So I got the Stillen Competition exhaust installed on the Nismo!

The exhaust system for all 9AT automatics is freaking light. All 3 pieces added up to 35lbs!!! My Stillen was 38 lbs

 

[FSUZ33]

Nice!

Light because it’s the same diameter as the exhaust on a ‘97 Civic. Guessing it’s fairly thin walled as well, which isn’t terrible if it’s stainless.

Never seen an exhaust pipe like that Y section. Is it two stamped pieces welded together top and bottom? Could be hydroformed, but not sure because of the flange between the Y.

Someone may offer to buy the axle-back, unless that fad is already dead.

 

[Ikazuchi6]

Does the NISMO axle back fit the Performance?

Made a slight upgrade to the front brakes today. These are the 9668 calipers and still shockingly light.
