A great friend passed away over the weekend, still in shock and it hasnt fully set in yet.

In order to keep my mind busy and clear I've been really busy with the.car.

I was supposed to be finishing the wire harness today and instead I found myself ripping the OEM battery bracket off the car while in a state of trance while trance around the world/ above and beyond was on. One thing led to another and well.. Ill let pictures and progress talk.

Right after the.bracket came off.


During derusting:


After:

Stay stunned ;-)

Working on the harness. Discovered some sweet tricks and have done zero cutting so far.

Also moved two relays into the car that were used for the fog light mod.






Should be done tomorrow as far as This part of the harness is concerned

Slam the thing then worry about wheels. Do yourself a favor and save for something other than XXR wheels. They won't hold their value at all and I think you'd be better off on 16's anyways.

lol its a sentra, it doesnt deserve expensive wheels. Plus I change my mind soo much buying expensive wheels would be a waste of money for me.

Ill never run 16s on this car. 17s all day long.

[Specv118]

Can we finally see some progress instead of hearing what plans you make for it.
How faking hard can it be to get some wheels and coilovers? WTF

I have coils... lol

Im to busy working 50+ hours a week and going to school 30+ hours a week atm to post any progress worth a damn.

Ah. They would look nice, but idk about staggering on a fwd. Personal preference, but I wouldn't do it.

[Specv118]

Those 350 wheels look great on that sentra. Would be even better if they were fitted properly, what's the comparison in offset between the 350 wheels and the spec v wheels?

stock specv wheels IIRC are +42 and those 350z wheels are +35 (I think, but dont quote me) .. that and those are staggered Z wheels also I found out. 8 front and 8.5 back IIRC
