Hi all, I've been really busy on our Z. The 'before pics' are on Mr Hollowpoint's (my husbands) Pics of my 300zx thread in this forum.

i have now resprayed nearly all the car with bodykit and other mods that I wanted. The 'floating targas' boot install is also looking a lot better. Of course we both have loads of things on our todo list for the Z, but for now, we are ready for show season and just enjoying our creation for the summer.

That is PERFECT. Exactly how a 300zx should look.

totally worn out and broken, shouting 'Holy ****, WHAT A RIDE!'"

We will be at Japfest this coming weekend with the Zclub, then we're hoping to make Japfest2 up here at Donnington park. We are seriously considering coming to JAE with you guys this year, as we missed it out last year altogether. Thanks so much for all the nice comments, as I'm sure you're all too aware, there are plenty out there who will slam something so modified, either out of jealousy, or just because they personally believe cars shouldn't be modified.

If everything seems fine, you've probably not grasped the gravity of the situation.
