Good shit haha

Damn, what luck! Looking forward to the progress.

my buddys dad has a z car in their drive way that's just sat there for 15+ years it runs but the clutch is junk

I keep thinking about stealing it and fixing it for him.


got any websites specific for these guys parts?

good work

Yep there are lots of places to get parts. Prices will vary. EEE- bay is a good resource too.

www.thezstore.com
www.blackdragonauto.com

And some forum specific sites include:

Zcar.org

Hybridz.org



There are tons of sites, and if you were looking for parts, I'd definitely scour the buy/sell/trade sections of the above mentioned forums. They usually carry the best deals.

cool, any recommended brands?

If you're looking for higher end performance parts check out


technotoytuning.com

arizonazcar.com

otherwise everything else is either custom made, or OEM Nissan, for the most part. But when it doubt, definitely stick to Nissan stuff.

If you were down to do this, I'd definitely help you in any ways I can.

It's just replacing a clutch/tune up giving it a little love but if I have questions ill ask

Okay. Got to work on the car for a day this weekend.

Made some progress. With projects like this, you have to take it one panel at a time. It's easy to become discouraged when one looks at the project as a whole.

So I started off deleting the OEM air cleaner, and added the intake that I used on my 240 when it was N/A. It'll work for now.

I swapped wheels and tires.

Then I started working on the tail light panel. Cut out the rust, and welded in some patches, thus beginning the adventure. I'll try to complete a section every time I return home.


Total Work Days: 2

Money spent on parts: $13 (silicone coupler for my intake)

Total cost of project thus far: $663





Here are some pictures. (uploaded in sets of 3x, continued in the next post)

It's a start....More to come.
