Ordered some parts for the 3sgte

Alt bearing
AC/Alt Belt
PS belt
Distributor Cap
Wireset
Spark plugs

Only a few more large items and I'm moving this project.

Still have to figure out if my OEM flywheel after a machining will work with the clutch I just acquired. I assume so, but would love for someone to assure me there could not be issue with just machining it clean. Otherwise, I'll be looking to acquire another.

So exhaust, and a aluminum rad. Almost there.

Today I did though. tongue.gif Yesterday I had a new synthesizer come in, so I was busy playing with that. Also if it makes everyone happy I'm thinking about going with a 300ZX instead now. At least it's still Japanese, close enough right?

Thought about getting a 280ZX, but then dealing with a 30+ year old car for a daily driver.

Meh, I don't really care for those as much. Lacks the charm of the original Z car, and isn't as fast as a Z32. Some of those are almost as old as the 280ZX, so just rather have the 280ZX at that point. Z31 looks kind of cool I suppose, but isn't for me.

I feel ya. I've always loved the old 280zx but they're so hard to find in any type of decent condition around here even for a fixer upper. (╯︵╰,)

Actually yesterday but whatever...

...was the 4-year anniversary of buying my 6gc; an amazing 48 months of blood, sweat, good times, and great friends!

To celebrate I bought new tires for the lil' lady.

Around here you can find a lot of them in good original or semi-restored condition for under $3,000 all the time. Why it was under my considerations, but for a daily would be pushing it I think.

Today I tried vacuum forming for the first time and made these. Not perfect on the sides but the rubber will hide it. But the front is perfect and will be great for my projector retrofit. Also bought a toms lip the other day needs work but will be worth it.

Reminds me of when I did my retrofit!
What thickness of plastic did you use?

I used a 2mm impact modified acrylic. My first try didn't go so well I overheated the plastic and got bubbles. So I decided to hit it with a hammer and it took a few hits in the same spot before it broke. Its supposed to be 50x stronger than glass and have a uv coating on it already.

Got real tired of my power steering belt not being correctly tightened. Just seems I could never get the pry I needed....

So, I had a free oil change, and had some local mechanics tighten her up.

Felt weird taking it to a shop, and first time since I've owned it, that its been on a lift.

People may not purchase it because they get tired of waiting for 132 pictures to load!

It's all up on a Photo Bucket album, I wasn't about to sit there and script 132 pictures into the listing. tongue.gif I thought having some 50 pictures of the last cars I sold was bad...

Ah okay. If I was purchasing, I would actually appreciate all the pics.

Indeed. I know when I'm looking for a car, pictures sell.

finally had my projector headlights installed. WRC style spoiler mod will be done in a couple of weeks. I know I have not been on here for a very long time, but thought you guys might like to see a pic with the upgrade..

Finished swapping my buddy's '96 Camry to a standard. Finally got it running tonight after a whole day of trying to figure out why it was just starting and dying. We didn't realize the MAF sensor had to be changed to the '97 one because we swapped in every '97 harness from the donor car. Runs like a f*ckin champ now!
Just some wiring stuff that needs to be done tomorrow and that's it.

Clear side repeaters and front indicators would finish it off nicely
