This week's update, the wheels are back from paint and polish!

Image

I was able to mount the tires today at work. Thankfully we have a Cheetah bead seater which makes stretching tires very easy.

First time the cars been on its wheels in months so I rolled it out of the side yard for a few pictures.
I found the exhaust collector is way too low. I've got about an inch of clearance from the collector to the ground...
Just one more thing to address before JCCS next month...

DAMN! I don't even recognize this car. This is Brian btw. Mind if I like this up on our blog 4thUP.com? You took this to levels I didn't expect in the least bit.

swapping to electrical ignition / newer distributor requires tach upgrade as well...

pretty common on S30Zs as well



Ahhh, I see. I've always wondered this. Thanks :)

A few pictures from CnC saturday morning. Happy to say everything is going well.
The engine and exhaust are complete, the interior is back from upholstery and the seats came out fantastic. Looking forward to JCCS in two weeks!

Here's a short clip of the completed exhaust and it's unmistakable L series note
