That is why i have a monkey hanging from my *Censored**Censored**Censored*

Like i said, it is a project in the works. This is just my current progress. I still need to finish the suspension and get a FMIC, BOV, Test-Pipe and get it tuned. That will be all the motor stuff for a while, because i need to learn the car with less power before i get a turbo upgrade and such, which will happen eventually.
But my exterior plans consist of: 17" DT-05R Wheels, Kouki Taillights, GP Sports 3pc wing (small one), Nismo or JDM Zenki Skirts, and a clean rear bumper which i havent picked out yet. Maybe eventually a vented carbon fiber hood if i feel i need the cooling vents for purpose. I doubt it though. Interior is gonna get some Recaro's and harness's eventually and maybe a rear 4pc cage. We will see, but nothing is going to happen more until like november, because right now i need to make money for school.

Very, very clean and nice car. I was wondering where the IC was in those pics And those wheels should look hot on your car

If it were me I'd get some black wheels with a fat chrome lip, but the gunmetal or hyper black will look great. Hopefully my next car will be a 240, I've wanted one for 3 years so eventually I'll snag one.

Great photography also, definitely keep us updated with info + pics. (And invest in a new set of rear rubbers )

Thanks for the props, the wheels will be hyperblack and the new rubber was already installed 3 days ago. I will get some better pics, and report back later.

If you are going to DRIFT it, i'd recommend a clutch type LSD, as every forum recomends against using a viscous type LSD for drifting or even road racing. Also, worry about the drivetrain before you add power.

Edit: also, where is the brake upgrade to go with the power upgrades?

Z32 Brake upgrade is coming after i get a FMIC, i am not getting the FMIC for power really, mostly to cure the heatsoak problem. I am going with Z32 F&R calipers, Project MU F&R Slotted rotors, stainless lines, and i still havent decided on pads yet.
I plan on getting a quality LSD when my budget says i can, because i just lost my job and am in deep *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* for money. The drivetrain should be fine for a while, the J30 is doing fine for my little power, and the ACT Clutch will withstand enough for me. From here on out it is going to be a slow project. What pads does everyone reccomend?
and yes, i will get some action shots as soon as i can. Lately though i have been on the mad hunt for a job, and havent had much time.

Nice car and welcome to the forums! Your car is a total sleeper. The only thing that denotes power is the HKS muffler, but dont worry, id rather it look stock and be a beast in the engine.

I personally think it is annoying as hell lol. But i think there is turbulence being created in the intake tract somewhere, it might have to do with my Blitz Stainless Steel Mesh intake filter, or my restrictive Stock SMIC. i'm not sure.
