Slowpoke Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Sucks about the hood. I dunno about the wale tail and the stock body lines. It would mesh alot better with fender flares or an aggressive looking air dam. How's it drive? Quote Link to comment

hobospyder Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Box flares 1 Quote Link to comment
Slowpoke Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Or he could not flare it and flush like everyone else who owns one of these. Haha, ouch, i have fender flares and flush.... Nothing wrong with the with stock fenders, its a good look. Just think that look works better with a smaller rear spoiler. Quote Link to comment

Just think that look works better with a smaller rear spoiler. No nothing wrong with it. I like them both ways it's just easier to do than to undo. Looking good EV89X.

Slowpoke Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 I had that exact same header from my old 240z. I thought that the bung had been put on there by a PO, Mine is welded in the exact way. Could not figure out if it was MSA or something else. Any ideas on what it is? How low does it hang down past the frame rails? Quote Link to comment
ownTer Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Loving the thread. I hope to have a Z some day soon.That or a 510. " If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. " 1 Quote Link to comment

How low does it hang down past the frame rails? that thing on the headers i believe is for cold starts. you attach a hose from that to the bottom part of the air filter and it puts warm air in. it hangs maybe an inch or less below the rails. my exhaust will scrape on a small brick.

EndStar Posted March 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Nice! Got road noise? Not so much road noose, but my car rattles a lot haha Quote Link to comment
EndStar Posted March 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 My dad is going to try and help me create a custom fuel rail, so I don't have to buy one. I need light bulbs, fix my hatch latch, and my turn signal stalk won't activate my turn signals, but my brights work. Just a lot of small things at this point Quote Link to comment
ownTer Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Its all the small things that make the huge difference. Nice to see it up and running! Quote Link to comment
