The pig makes it home.

The Z makes it back to Knoxville finally. Now it's on to assembly and wiring. Woot.

If you are talking about the metal, red box, then you're right, it is a fuel tank. Its probablly a fuel safe (I think thats the brand, pretty popular) fuel tank, they are stronger then normal fuel tanks. Hence, they are less prone to cracking/breaking in hard impacts.

Yeap, nailed it right on the head. 12 gallon cel.

Soultron, hook it up man. Strip all the stuff out of it, paint it flat black and roll that thing.

Yea we roll deep, deep in repair bills at the moment

The logo is Chrome vinyl.

Yea, i'm had spacers made for it. The only problem was that the guy that made the fenders put one hell of a lip roll on the underside. So I may have to put some Hipari on it to make em fit.

Yeah I noticed that those fender flares really don't leave much room for the low-profile tires that you commonly see drifting, plus I think the hipari's would look pretty good on the old girl.

I'm kinda curious as to how much hp you'll be making, and what you'll be doing to the suspension. I'm looking forward to how this thing turns out.

btw I prefer "Twin-Turbo V8" over "Nissan Turbo"
