Went out looking for some salvage yard gold, and ended up at a salvage yard that could be used to film a horror film. after an hour or so lost in the woods I found afew sad Z's...
Didn't find any useable parts, but there is a ton of cool cars rotting away in those woods. Plan on going back with a real camera to take a lot of pics.

First drift event with the new suspension was last weekend...what a world of difference!! No more spinning out due to crazy weight transfer on transitions. Just need to work on my steering angle and alignment now.
then I clipped one of the clipping points lol.
Just ripped the bumper off and kept at it.
Next event is May 10th..hoping to have extended tie rods and my hydro/dual rear calipers installed by then.

@ nisbro.
Got the kojins back yesterday and moved forward with the BBK install. The fucking rear kit was a lot of trouble or this would probably be done by now. Here's the front all bolted up and teh rear with the new wheels prior to BBK install.
Edit: They're now fully installed and bolted down. Only problem is the shitlords at summit racing sent me the fucking rear SRT-8 brake pads that don't fit. Just ordered new ones but I am not a happy panda right now. Was hoping to have the fronts done by now. Also, the shitlords at Z1 Motorsports were supposed to give me washers to space their calipers out by 3/64" to center them. This wasn't included with the it and is the reason the rear 370Z brakes are not on it right now. Fuckers...
