Tell me not the before and after, the steering became a light lighter when going at lower speeds and handling round about exits or entrances to a highway or freeway.

 

I was slammed two months ago, I hit the oil filter door about 20+ times, and had it rebent and reformed, it saves everything else. It really does.

I'm now about .7 of an inch higher but still low. I don't scrape or hit the tray at all.

 

New parts for my G I wonder what a difference this should al make.

 

All done!

 

That oil pan is cool (no pun). Love it.

Whole lot of mods at once here, but the only one that's going to feel obvious is the transmission mount. What are you thinking about it?

Was wondering why your Cusco bar was blue, until I zoomed in. LOL

 

Thanks! Reason being for the overkill oil pan is




You can barely see cause my camera skills suck but there is a hole in the pan.

 

Got new wheels on the G yesterday, they are 18x8 all around. Tire size is 225/45/18 for all 4

 

Not bad vQ37, almost look OEM.

 

Installed the ZSPEC Ultimate Engine Dress-Up Engine Bay Fastener Kit.

I had wanted to get a fastener kit for a while, but in my limited searching online, the pricing was upwards of $200. I wasn't going to spend that much for engine bay bolts. When I saw that the price on the ZSPEC kits is $100 and shipping is free, I decided to pull the trigger.

ZSPEC was awesome to deal with every step of the way. Within 30 minutes of ordering, I had a tracking number. They shipped it USPS Priority Mail and I had the kit in my hands two days later.

ZSPEC has a ton of colors to choose from - including Neo-Chrome. I went with emerald green because JDM, yo. Also, red or blue parts are so common and I'm not into purple or orange. YMMV. Anyway, here's what you get with the 370Z/G37 kit:





Installation was a breeze - the only thing to be careful about is not dropping hardware deep into the intricacies of your engine bay. Use extra caution when working above your belts and pulleys - it would be hard to retrive something if it got wedged deep in there.


















OEM hood latch. ZSPEC recommends you use Loctite on the replacement bolts. I did.





Out with the old...and gummed up. Here are all the OEM bolts that got replaced.



Here is my bounty of leftover parts. For now, I've opted not to install the throttle body hardware nor the hardware for the timing chain covers on the engine block. I'll save that for another day. Even still, there are plenty of leftover bolts and washers. The options are endless.



Parting shots.





Props to ZSPEC for putting together such a generous kit at such a reasonable price. I'm quite happy with my purchase. Big thumbs up on this.

 

Now I g2 drop the dough on that dressup kit haha, looks fantastic. Didnt realize the price went down as much as it did.

 

 

Thanks man, that was what I was going for

 

Damn, what did you hit there?? Nice upgrades BTW

 

I hit a commercial sized rachet strap on the on ramp.

 

When i bought these Rays 2+ years ago i knew i was going to have to refinish them but they were so cheap i couldn't pass up the deal. Not too long after picking up the wheels, i grabbed some plasti dip as i pass Dipyourcar.com all the time. I think painting is the way to go but already had the plasti dip so went with it. I'm happy with the way they came out but it did take a while. In hindsight, i should have paid a little more for wheels in better shape.
