Very nice transformation so far. I am digging the chrome wheels and the deisgn of them. I am not a fan of the polished lip or chrome lip with black on the inside. Way too many people on here dig them, so in my opinion they look amazing. Whats left for the interior and on with the modding! Welcome to the CL site and thanks for sharing.

I know it sounds like a lot, but would you be able to post a video of how that exhaust sounds on your SC ?

No, i didnt remove the dash. Though i wish i did, cause then i could have removed the wood trim and covered it in leather (like the sides)
I did start to take the dash out, but got stuck with the damn glovebox - lol
I just masked off the ENTIRE interior and windshield, and just sprayed the crap out of it.

Agreed. Very surprised a 9.5 +35 would sit do deep into the wheel well. The tire is just about 1/16th away from the fender lip (they are not rolled, and the lip/trim is still there). Still undecided if im going to roll the fenders and drop spacers in (like ive done on all the 240's). It is just a daily. Time will tell.

That was the idea. The car sat in my garage the entire two weeks for the coilovers to arrive (the longest leadtime) until i really drove it. Just couldnt drive it around in stock trim.

Like i said, the Chrome is growing on me.
With or without a polished lip, i do not care of Black wheels. To me, they just look kinda dirty and cheap looking. I have not ever seen a set of black wheels that i was crazy about.

Will see what I can do. It is always hard to capture an exhaust clip.

Mmmm cookies. Ill definately ask the wife to bake more of them.

You know you wanna start on yours. Then we can be twins.


Pics from the Performance Nissan BBQ we had yesterday. Had to bring the SC since i sold off all the 240's - lol






And my buddies have a brand new Fender Roller that they are gonna lend me. With a couple of 15 or 20mil spacers, should sit nice and flush.
