    I saw your thread with the lack of pictures, and now I feel like you were just building up anticipation. That car is very clean!
    The only thing lower than my standards is my truck.

    Build thread!!!

          yo looks pretty gnar man, are the original specs +20 all around? And a spacer was required to clear the front brakes? what tire sizes are you running and do you have any aftermarket camber arms? I have a 90 N/a 300 as well and i was planning on buying these wheels so I google imaged and your car came up haha. I'm also from WA too.

            Your car is really nice i like it!

            I m not sure why everybody is going on about these being rare, I know a handful of people with z32's, shit I even know two people who drift them
            I thought they were pretty common lol

              Actually these are +25 all around. They come in +20 and +25 but I had ordered the +25 by mistake . The +20 set SHOULD fit without a spacer in the front, but you may need a 5mm. Sorry for the late reply. I've been extremely busy with work and preparing things for the booth I'll be at for ForumFest. If you wanna talk to me there I'd be more than happy to, come see me at the Imperial Tint booth if you're going.

                Thanks! These Z's aren't that uncommon, although my color and a few other colors are pretty rare its just there aren't many people who want to deal with the VG30 and this chassis doesn't have quite the aftermarket support as other Nissan platforms.

                  Update time! Sorry for the long delay, I've been super busy lately. Dropped the front about a week or so ago as much as I possibly could and I'm liking the way it sits now. Will snap some photos of it later as the Washington weather permits (currently raining) so those should be posted up within an hour or so.

                    Very LONG time gap between updates, my apologies. With show season in full swing, and the recent mishaps I've gone through I've been REALLY busy!

                    Anyways, these are a couple of photos from a NW event Stancewars

                    I ended up modifying my front coilovers by removing both the spring perch and the bottom locking collar. The end result was this,
                    http://imgur.com/a/UBW18#5My Hood latch cable has been tore through, and my tire sits about 1/4 inch from my pinch weld and my frame.

                    Meanwhile I did a shoot with a good friend of mine, he hasn't sent me most of the images yet, or any of the any of the High Res but I have a few preview shots I'll post up!

                    One of my favorite shots, couldn't have turned out much better!

                    Recently been thinking about how to go lower, debated on raising my shock towers, but decided I needed a bit more tire stretch first and to fix my fenders. Then this happened http://imgur.com/a/UBW18#3
                    So this is where I am at right now, rolling around on a donut with no fenders until this weekend when I can get some new tires. Going to be going with 215/40/17 Nexens, should be the PERFECT stretch for what I am trying to do. Also ordering some extended studs and spacers for the front, so it should sit absolutely perfect.

                      I liked the old rims but the new ones match even better! Well done!

                          I feel like 18's and tucking rim at that height would look infinitely better.
                          As low as you are, it's started to make the rear wheel well look to big for the diameter of the 17".

                          Never the less, car is damn low.

                            I agree the 17's look a bit strange in the rear, my next set of wheels will probably be a 17/18 stagger. Adding quite a few finishing touches to the car this week, will post up pictures as parts come in!
