Shakotan Z (lots of Oics)


Recommended Posts

going home this weekend to do a couple things, new bulbs for my taillights , and i need to elongate my exhaust so it doesn't get caught in my bumper. might do a small boso pipe, just come up about 3 feet with it cut on an angle. nothing too crazy. and bulbs, any you guys recommend, wanna make sure they are bright enough to be easily noticeable and last a while.

Looks like its coming together. Bet you get alot of looks! Whats the plan for getting it lower?

 

I got on Great Lakes Z Club. I didn't introduce my self on there yet, but their forum looks dead.

the forums arent used too much, but the facebook page is always busy and people posting go there
