This car is certainly the 'anti hardparker', and puts all it's goodies to good use at HPDE's... For the most part, it's a simple setup. I hate huge, non useable, peaky powerhands, and made it a point during the build to focus on the ultimate engine response possible, as well as making it handle and stop equally well. It seems like proper 'all around' cars aren't popular for some reason, so I figure why not bring the 'total car' concept back $\:D$ Simple mod list (PM me if you want the whole kit-and-kabootle)..

Daily Grind Wheels: Volk 57pros in full RMC/Chrome 18's (wearing cheap rubber) (I also have my old 'temp' Z33 base model wheels in the one set of pics) EDIT: I forgot to mention, I did all work MYSELF on the car...tore down the engine, stock rebuild, install, wiring, suspension...the only part I didn't do was align the car, and help mold in the new water temp gauge into the cigg lighter area (no pics of that yet in car) Alas here are some pics...

The Swain coating (is the best heat coating bar none available today:

The extrude hone is the best port/polish/hone stuff on the market today as well $\:D$

No offense to you or the drift guys, but I think drifting is totally lame. Does it require skill? Certainly. Good driver? Yes as well....but to me it's a pointless way to smash your car all to hell.

Grip Driving will forever > Drifting in my book. As we say, the slowest way around a corner is sideways :P

THe multi spoke ones are 350z base model 17's. They are heavy as hell, and the tires on them were about smoked...so I somehow fell into a perfect situation to get a set of The Ray's 18" Track Wheels UBER cheap, and jumped on it $\:D$
