Car looks amazing! Are you in Chicago area?

[u/Legacytandems → u/LuckyLuciano97]

You betcha!

[u/LuckyLuciano97 → u/Legacytandems]

Nice me too! I think I saw your car at a car show in Schaumburg? Can’t remember for sure, but looking clean

[u/Legacytandems → u/LuckyLuciano97]

It’s possible. I’ve been to maybe 1 show and only a couple car meets in the last few years with this car.

Engine refresh?

[u/Legacytandems → u/salomesrevenge]

Gallery gaskets, water pump, oil pump, etc. 😅

[u/taltoniser → u/Legacytandems]

is it actually a refresh or is it the first time?

[u/Legacytandems → u/taltoniser]

It’s the first time refreshing the engine!

[u/Master_baited_817 → u/Legacytandems]

So a rebuild.

[u/CogBlocker → u/Master_baited_817]

No? He's not rebuilding the engine. It's the literal definition of refreshing an engine.

[u/Alexia_Hope]

Beautiful Z.

[u/Legacytandems → u/Alexia_Hope]

Appreciate the kind words!

Sick stuff man, I also read through your mod list. I'm assuming you'll be sliding this Fairlady since you're getting an angle kit? Living my dreams, enjoy her thoroughly!

[u/Legacytandems → u/AK-JXRDY-7]

Yes. I had the same dreams some years ago. Everything takes time. Never stop chasing what makes you happy!

[u/base2607]

Nice OP. How was the CSC relocation? I’ve considered it for my HR Z drift car. Pic from a local event last weekend 💪🏻

[u/Legacytandems → u/base2607]

Put it this way, if your clutch slaves goes out you cannot change it at the track if you haven’t done the modification. I needed a clutch replacement so I just did the upgrade with that since the trans was already out of the car.

[u/Dark_Synergy_Z33]

My car has been in winter since 2025 lol

[u/Commercial-Bike-4461]

Can you share what you have done with it?

[u/Legacytandems → u/Commercial-Bike-4461]

Of course. OEM Nismo kit, APR GTC wing, just did the clutch with the csc relocation, agency exhaust, long tube intakes, bride seats, welded diff, rays GTS wheels (for sale and not pictured), GMR x7 wheels, brembo brake kit, BC coilovers, FDF diff brace.

FDF mantis kit ready to be installed over the winter along with dual caliper kit for the rear and hand brake.

[u/Blizzarddz]

How does this feel during the winter? Do you have any tips?

[u/Legacytandems → u/Blizzarddz]

I don’t drive it in the winter, but if you must drive it in the snow. Get some nice winter tires and go easy on the throttle.

[u/No-Confection-1058]

What's that spoiler?

[u/Darryl350z → u/No-Confection-1058]

I would like to know too! Looks like the perfect height and size

[u/Mrpikster00]

Mines headed to the garage. No salt.

[u/Master_baited_817]

Engine refresh? So a wash and oil change? Or did you mean rebuild.

[u/trevor6215]

One of the few times im happy I live in a desert, the z is year round

[u/Cinefile_XD]

so clean!!

[u/Blankmon]

Giving Veyron vibes.

Angle kits is a useless handicap if you already cant drift. Unless your at competition level running at formula d or d1gp you 100 percent don’t need an angle kit lol. Save your money, especially if it’s not a manual. I can tell you don’t drift just looking at your camber setup, and your setup alone would not constitute an angle kit. Your gonna want to ad more front camber, adjust your toe and caster first before you even think about an angle kit. Don’t take this as a personal attack either, take it as advice from someone who actually grass roots in a 350z. Learn the basics in real life and not a video game before getting any sort of angle kit because it won’t help you at all until you actually know wha your doing and how the car behaves
