hahaha loves it a!

Got her alarm installed today, those are the fronts with one polishe, but did a second hand polish shortly after. Looks a lot better :)
Casual skid rims on the back (well, flatmates rims, my tyres until they are popped - bets on dan stealing them though!)

Changed the push button start to normal ignition and tidied up a lot of the wiring, looks good, very happy! Will get central locking done in a week or so. Still waiting on fan to arrive so we can put new alloy radiator in and send her to a good mate of mine to get intercooler piping made and fitted :)

If anyone knows of/has a rb25det turbo, let me know! Would like to bolt it onto the z18 for a bit more power..
Looking at buying a spook/chin spoiler fairly soon.. I pine! :drool:

I am so over the moon with the dash! Looks amazzing yay :D hahaha reckon the plates suit her?? I'm very excited about the spook.... But at the same time I'm saving hard so she gets painted within a months time.... oh the choices :p

Thanks!! She was a bit of a state upon arrival, very happy with how things are progressing :)
I've lowered it by putting 280zx front struts with spring perchs lowered right down on the strut, then just shorter shocks in the rear and cobra springs. All springs are captive as. Could go a bit lower but for now it will do! :dance2:

Here are some pictures I took in the weekend after putting her new plates on.. Gives her a bit more personality for sure.

I brought a turbo for her today... Suposivley a rb25det ball bearing, but after a bit of research it seems to be single turbo VG30.... which is going to be a bit too laggy for my wee girl, plus its water cooled so will have to go the extra effort into putting lines in....

If anyone needs one, hit me up, I dont need her :P
Thanks Aaron for your input in the photo too haha
