Lol sorry man! I just read through the read and love the build, love where you are going with it. If I had the chance to build a Z31 I would want it done the same way. And those renders!

But let me know when you need more parts, email me:

Will do, thanks! I find the site to be a little difficult to navigate/search because it doesn't seem to break the parts down by chassis. Thanks for the kind words on the build direction too!

Honestly our website is horrible. We are in the works for a new website as we speak, and it will be mobile friendly

If you need anything, just email me or give us a call. If a part you want is available for a Z, we can get it. If it's not available for purchase, I can recommend some places to look.

Any and all window/exterior rubber seals would be great. Honestly, I will pretty much buy up just about anything I can get. I daily search NOS, OEM new parts on eBay.

Just email over a list of what you are looking for and I can keep an eye out. I know all of those pieces you just asked about are hard to find now a days! But, the Nissan dealer we use has access to the old parts catalogs so we can search for any numbers really. Just let me know on an email man!

Brand new in the box NOS T top with new seals and the proper color trim I want to replicate on the rest of the car. Also pulled the other quarter window and got just about everything in the engine bay unhooked and ready to pull. Will probably do that tomorrow. The quarter window butyl seal had already melted in the past so I just had to remove the two 10mm nuts and pushed right out. One of the most common sources of water leaks. When the painter does the body work to remove the trim, he will bond them in with the same stuff used on windshields this time.

Almost got the engine out but need to wait for a friend to lend me a hand. Kept the wiring harness connected and intact too!

Yeah I am going to install the Kouki hood, front bumper and lights.

My throttle bodies are in Australia and have been dismantled. They are supposed to send me some progress photos I hope.

Should be ordering the Watanabe's this week. Going with gunmetal grey 16x8 0, 8.5 -6.

I bought an S14 subframe and will order MAX adjustable arms and drop spindle/knuckles. I also got an Infinity J30 diff. 3.98 (IIRC) LSD. I plan to get a Nismo 1.5 way to swap in as well and may even go with a shorter ratio. I have been told the 3.98 is too tall for my setup and my only experience is with BMW so I just couldn't go 4.1x+ off the bat. I may end up swapping the ring and pinion gear but we will see.

EFI Hardware sent me a photo of the throttle bodies stripped down. And the guy doing my 3/4 renders sent me this wild wide body version he designed. I love it but will likely never do anything like that.

These are the MAX parts I plan to order.

You have to modify the sub since the 350Z diff ears are in a different location

Ordered the rear suspension parts from MAX. Also went ahead and ordered ARP head studs as well as the Ross hall sensor kit for the RB. I will definitely want crank fire ignition at the RPM's I will be running. Just chipping away at the parts list
