That is a well put car. Congrats on a clean pick up. Those Mag Blue Te's & brake combo are just sick!

Wow Alvin! Congrats on the new purchase. Looks like a beast (jdm beast lol). Good to see Rob at Z Car Garage had his hands on it. Great guy over there. If you ever decide to get crazier with the Z, I highly recommend you come back down to Cali and let Rob do the work.

Some of his other work (my S30... New paint job is coming):

Why? I really don't like HD photography I could take pics of a rust bucket and make them look good. Take normal pics and then we can really see how the car looks.

In the end if your happy that's what matters. I would have not bought a 350Z and stuck all of that JDM$$ all show no go crap on it.

Really can't say anything else looks like a Z with 15K of JDM parts.

There's nothing else needed to be done with the Z.. where's the fun in that? It looks hot though. Looks like your friend bought everything that Mackin carries.

Ask and you shall receive here is a few crappy iphone pic

However, I don't get this... bad picture and people say the pic does the car no justice, good pics and people say the pic hides the flaws of the car...lol Btw the car has 285rwhp and was tuned with Unichip. It's an N/A built so all bolt ons and then tune. Might not be a lot for Evos but for a z that's a pretty strong number on an N/A build with just bolt ons. So no it's not just crap. And actually the parts totaled about $37k... Considering I paid only slightly higher than KBB...it was a steal!

No worries though it will be changed up in time This Z is not complete yet

Thanks bro! I definitely think it was a good move on my part. I love the Evo no doubt, but it was time to get a coupe again!

Damn Eric that's soooo sick! I aboslutely LOVE the 240z! That is a beautiful one too! Rob is definitely a great guy. I don't mind making a trip down there, the drive isnt all that bad and I have relatives there anyhow I know he does top notch work because he is the only one that touches this car when the previous owner has her. I definitely love the vibe of Z Car Garage!

HD is great for posters and things, but cars don't really look like that. Regular pic with no post picture processing and you can really see what the car looks like.

Good luck with it hope you enjoy it until the next project comes around.
