Z31 that drifts

This is my turd. I paid $1000 for it....sometime in 2010 I think. Dont know, had like 40 z31s. Anywhoooo....

It was a mess when I got it...solid, straight chassis...but the hood was banged up and the hatch glass was broken.









What a turd! lol

So I had what I believed was a cracked manifold...



It was a big crack...



Escalated quite quickly, actually.



Together:



Wait...rewind for a second. I forgot to mention, this was a factory automatic car. So another project was auto to manual swap. I did that in a day, no real pictures.

ugly mess though here:



New hood, blah blah





Front mount:



I'm going to skip all of the lame lowering spring stuff...and jump right to the fun.

Awesome CLSD (not stock) in factory Z31 diff case, with finned cover.



Best $25 ever spent:





Rolling shot from earlier this year...was on lame Suspension Techniques springs and Bilstein HDs





THEN...the good stuff:













Straight pipe back on:



The front wasnt quite low enough...went a touch lower. Rubs on fenders now...meh



These did not last long....

I have Z32 calipers for it...need to buy rotors...I also have some brand new billet steering knuckles my friend and I make that I havent even put on yet....and theres other random crap I probably forgot...oh well.

Thats my turd. I rev it to 6500rpm daily and beat the piss out of it and it takes all of the abuse.
