Re: Z31 300ZX Project
Did a bit of work over the last few weekends.
Got my black interior 90% done, including charcoal Z32 seats and a nice new Momo steering wheel.
Finally got around to buying a set of Bilstein shocks for the rear.
Compared to the Tokico blues I had.
Installed.
How she sits now
Took a nice cruise yesterday afternoon.
At the Historic King William Courthouse
Next to the Walkerton bridge

Looks like the maroon car came with an exhaust, does that mean you have two? ;-D Nice build! Sweet car!

It did, but it was a shitty hack job of an exhaust. If you really need one, I may be able to come up with something for you though, send me a PM with what you're looking for.

Re: Z31 300ZX Project
UPS man dropped off a stack of goodies last night. Wilwood Forged Superlite 4 piston calipers with the accompanying brake lines and pads. Running them with a set of adapter brackets and 350Z track rotors.
Rotor test fitting.
Everything installed.
Still need to bleed them. I'll get more pictures once it's on the ground.
Also working on building a set of OWO heads for the car. Got them all assembled, just need to find time to install.
Since you guys are likely unfamiliar, OWO heads came off of later model vehicles with the 3.3L version of my engine. They are an updated casting with better flowing ports and larger exhaust studs (less likely to break off). Mine are getting adjustable cam gears, Isky 272 cams, and 110lb Schneider valve springs.
