very very nice!!! for the horn button try some double sided tape. it'll wedge it in there and help it stay put at the same time. just be sure you maintain the contact point still so your horn works

Installed the Nardi steering wheel to finish it off the interior some little things pending though

Some pictures i took, car was a bit dirty though.

After driving some issues are coming up, like

1. Brakes not taking enough pressure
2. Some heat coming from from the gearbox opening
3. Clutch pedal needs a bit of alignment
4. Exhaust is too low might need working on gearbox mounting and move the exhaust up
5. Steering rod had some problem during alignment time running -1.7 camber on one end and -1.1 on other will be fixed soon

Coils, some trunk emblem, speedo GPS module and fuel sender are on order will be replaced next week. Apart from this car drives very nice suspension if a bit stiff i guess will loosen up after some driving.

interesting brake/accel. setup

Lots of work has been done, changed the brake booster, custom fitted one from some Mitsubishi pickup, fitted nicely on 1" willwood brake master cylinder. Sorted out the gear mounts and downpipe, some dropping in the front on right side it bottom out already seems like fenders flares might not be installed properly or some other issue.

Installed custom door sills

Had some stickers lying with me which I ordered at different times stuck those

Datsun and Cusco

Project X workshop just repping them for a while

Cusco rear strut

Old school

JAF and a tricky JNC (courtesy to Toolz)

PMC-S, Prince motor-sports some might not feel this on a Z but I love it

One more along with repping :tu:

JNC in Dubai

PMC-S inside on console

Speedcorner

Last found an old one lying around perfect!

Exhaust all sorted

Almost final height, already bottom out in front right side

Left front side seems a bit more lowered but its more to do with the way flares are installed

Next up is changing the downpipe this week ,then installing coils on weekend a do the final tune along sorting out AC ducting.

Very nice!

What is the brand of those seats? OMP? I have been looking for a suitable set of seats for my z. I already had a pair of glassfibre buckets, but those were impossible to mount low enough. I am 186 cm tall and it was impossible to wear helmet with those seats..

Did you modify original floor and mounting points?

Hi, got it through a friend here he owns some car parts shop, according to him these are done by same manufacturer who also do contract manufacturing for OMP and some recaros.

These sit as same level as stock ones Im 176 and there is still room over my head but havent tried it yet with a helmet

Some work done in past few weeks

Changed the coils, plugs (thought plugs were changed in previous workshop), installed GPS module for the autometer speedo as had problem in getting signal from the gearbox and also installed the autometer fuel center unit.

Plugs, no idea how the car was running and even tuned on these, I did ask the workshop when installing other things to change it got back to them and they said politely ohh we forgot :td:

Got NGK BCPR7ES aka 3330

Old fuel sender which came with surge tank out

Was broken thats why gauge always showed FULL :roll:

Autometer one height adjusted and there it goes in

Autometer GPS speedo interface, peace of mind now accurate reading regardless of tire/diff sizes

Splitfire coils for Neo

Time for these to go out

Old vs New

Done

Plugged and ready to fire

Took the car to a local meet and did shoot with some 350z and 370z
