      I think it looks great, I like the rake. Maybe just a tiny bit lower in the rear, but looks good. Any plans for the engine? Diesel power is awesome!

        Yeah the splitter is one of my favorite parts of the exterior. Probably the reason why I'm hesitant to buy a factory lip for the vehicle.

        Thanks man, I'm trying to get it as low as possible right now I have the front coils all the way down and the rear has no perches and no rubber inserts. Might have to get creative because I don't really want to bag it....

              Its been a little while since I posted any progress and much has changed in the last few months. Since my last post I received a promotion at work which in turn brought on the perk of a company vehicle. While I loved everything about the TDi it really served no purpose with the addition of a company vehicle. The point of the TDi was fuel economy since I travel about a 100 miles a day for work. Having a company car ( and a gas card) allowed me to find something more fun to drive on the weekend. After looking at several different options I saw something that wasn't on my radar, but immediately fell in love with. After a short test, I knew I wanted it anf the rest is history. I'm now the owner of a Nismo 370z !

              I'll update with pictures later this evening.....

                  The rear is definitely going to need some work, hopefully nothing to crazy lol but let the madness begin!

                        No offense but you went from a nice, clean sedan to one of the world's ugliest cars. Not because you're making it ugly, but because it is inherently ugly. Much nicer/better looking cars out there for that kind of money IMO

                            Haha thanks bro, everyone is entitled to you opinion! Sorry you don't like it, I love it though. Plenty of raw power and handles like its on rails. I love it and I'm excited to continue play out my build.

                                Finally the coilovers arrived time to get this thing a little closer to earth....


                                The install begins...


                                When comparing this coilovers install to some of the previous installs I've done it was a breeze... The BC coilovers come completely assembled so it was basically a swap in and swap out.

                                Stock suspension


                                Rear coilovers installed


                                To make the wheels fit and dial in the suspension I needed to buy adjustable camber arms I decided to go with SPC camber arms after some research...

                                Stock cambers arms


                                SPC camber arms installed


                                Stock front suspension


                                Front coilovers installed


                                Dropped the wheels off at Banchwerks to be mounted

                                Still have a bit more tweeking to do to get it where I want it, but here are some pics of how it sits for now
