Got around to throwing engine in. *shrug*
Used the donor plenum to hoist the engine into da bay. Still working out a few kinks but it's coming along.

One bad ass car.... :D
|
Gracias. Slowly but surely.
|
milo, please keep us updated on this project...your Z is one of my favorites. Although, I think a stock front bumper with a stillen type III lip would turn your car instantly into sex on wheels...
|
Yeah....thought about that. Was thinking more along the lines of JDM front bumper with a molded in side body line on the bumper. Maybe even molding in the fog light ducts as well. But for right now, I am just trying to get it together at this time.
We will see how this keeps going. Still need a few bucks to finish her up. Probably won't be running until end of January/early February. |

Well, it's actually the GRacer front bumper.
But it's not my favorite either, but it was the most ergonomic front bumper that had a taste of "mod" style to it. Not a fan of the Wings West either.

oh yea, sorry, I get the two mixed up. Well, beautiful Z...it makes me wish I had money.

LOL .... doesn't take a whole lot of money, just time/effort and the balls to try it. Besides....your z is pretty nice already....just keep up the good work. |
well, i just graduated from college about 2 weeks ago or so, so I'm absolutely poor. This last year, I actually didn't even have enough money to mantain my Z even. So, hopefully I can get a good job and start fixing things and building it again.

what dps are those?
|
Greg Dupree had these lying around, supposedly the OG LaBree DP's he made himself. Needed a set of DP's on the quick and GD hooked me up with these for cheap. I plan on pulling them later when I finally get around to buying/installing Mike Smith Manifold, that I will have extrude honed, and also when I get a set of DP super splits....then send it all off to swain coat. Probably will have to wait till summer on all that though.

2 crappy jobs = 1 okay job. |
HA, I will. And Greg is awesome! DEF a guy who doesn't mind hooking up his fellow Z brothers.
