Default Project Z31 Daily Drift Swag! Quest for perfect stance & lowness

Ahoy dudes, my names cameron. I have a 86 z31 POS, that I have had since I was 17(21 now) and am finially doing some decent work to it trying to make a reliable DD drift rig thats fun to drive and streetable!

Mods so far installed:
MSA headers with full 2.5" exhaust sounds ok for a POS na vg30
Stance GR+ Pro SS-D coils all around with 12k springs
s13 rearend with q45 LSD
custom driveshaft
Kaminari Front lip x2

Things I have that need to be installed:
Complete semi-built LSx swap(sitting on stand in my shop)
hydro ebrake
cage(bits and pieces laying around)

Things I need:
255 fuel pump
wheels of some sort maybe xxr 530's, rpf1 or varrstoens or some shit that is good for daily use and track
tires
all adjustable SPL or Stance arms to get things in alignment
some sort of decent sound system that's not over doing things
odds and ends for my LSx swap
I need to repaint the bitch to a nice shade of black with purple flake!















Power Plant for a later date


more to come really soon dudes, including droppage and wheels!

So after being in the ER last night, for trying to get pics for you fruits of the new hotness, I finally still managed to get pics with stitches in the palm of my hand and my hand being swollen and hurting like shit(thanks Vicodin, for making me feel warm and fuzzy inside now).

Injuries, careless mistake, won't let it happen again so don't flame me(i rarely get hurt when working on my cars), it was dark, I was trying to get pics of the new joints on the car. Well long story short I really could not see the jack stand starting to tip, and the car tipped off and my hand got caught between my hydraulic jack and the car. I'm just happy I had an old 280zx hatch carpet under the wheel which prevented the wheel from getting dinged!





Ok enough of my bitching here is one thrown on the back of the car, still need to test the front once my hand gets better. Also thinking about running a 10mm spacer on the rear for a little more clearance of the shock body. Another thing since I have s13 rear, with +12 offset wheels idk what the effective offset is as of now with no spacer but it appears to be negative I'm not sure!








more updates once my hand heals to where i can move it!

So, in 4 months, all you managed to do was bolt on a set of wheels, and broke your hand in the process?

I guess so lol, it's hard to find time to do anything, working full time with overtime and being a full time student. Plus it took me like a month for those special order fake ass wheels!! I more as of right now I'm just trying my best to acquire parts finish up suspension, stance and safety stuff to get it ready to race! Also if that post seemed a little odd it's because I copy and pasted it from my build thread on z31performance.
