New updates.. Not much but cool pictures

Went to good 6-7 shows driving around all over on the east coast in the past 6 months.. did some burnouts if you haven't seen already.. check this video out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nz69n0CoS0

Threw my passenger zeta 3 of my fr-s into the driver side of my 180, looks cool (temporary until i get my new zeta 2's reupholstered)



My trip to daytona from va crushed my bumper so now its completely wrecked.. too broke to fix it at the time but heres a pic of it, the whole bottom part of fiberglass ripped completely off on the highway.



And a few pics from h2oi that i thought were nice.





after all that driving (and i normally never drive this car) put on a few thousand miles within those trips, but wore the hell out of some suspension parts. Wheel bearing in my rear passenger wheel is now gone. so thats something i gotta get + my balljoints are pretty worn and i bent a tie rod.. so plenty of things are about to come. That lead to me ordering the villain drift angle kit hopefully by next week. Next up is hunting for an s15 turbo, intercooler piping, and new air filter. Maybe cams.. however money comes about

Update:
Bought more parts
Mach V is a local shop next to me that supports Prosport gauges, and I decided to get the full 60mm setup with the Revo style gauges. Also with that, I went and bought gauge pods for the ac vent replacement from street faction as well as a new front bash bar. (Come to find out the custom bash bar i purchased doesn't fit with my intercooler setup.) Also found this guy who makes custom dash pod setups for the steering column, so I went and ordered this cool setup linked:
http://ortizcustompods.com/nissan.html

Ok so down to the details, I got her almost all the way back together to start getting on all the tweaks. Bled everything, filled all the fluids. got her running again after a fresh waterpump install. Everything seemed to be fine but of course a huge project like this always has its flaws. My power steering setup was flipped, which in my case i'm still confused on whats the correct way to go about it because I have a RHD Hicas rack, and you can't find shit for details on them online. I have yet to start the car since so not sure if it fixed it yet. Outside of this, my other issue is that my chase bays fans are not turning on with the chase bays thermoswitch I have, so i'm trying to figure out what is causing it from turning on or if my dumbass has to wait longer for them to activate. Ontop of that my HKS filter doesn't fit within the space I want it to with my J-pipe delete so now I have to go filter searching... I don't have much time for this car so at this rate it'll be done by the end of summer(hopefully)

On to the bright side I have the tires mounted, weld heat sink cover, and got a photoshoot of my jzx100 done recently. Heres some pictures
