Looks like a good starting point. If you want to drop it I recommend BC coils, mine still rides very smooth.

Well, being that you dont have the fogs, get a 97+ front bumper, side skirt as well as tailights. That alone will run you close to a thousand with matching paint but well worth it!

I plan on keeping the 95 look but mixin and matching body pieces. Lip up front, 97+ side skirts and a rear lip. The rear fenders are already rolled because the rear tires are 10 inches wide. I will look into JDM Muscles thread. I just think the 6speed would be more beneficial with the V8's lack of aftermarket support.

The V8 has plenty of aftermarket support....it is just pricey.

I have already modified the airbox, I noticed I czn spin the wheels alot more easily if I desired to after this mod. The wheels are the Nismo 350z R-tune wheels made by Rays Engineering. Front Size: 18x9.0 Offset: +30mm Weight: 21 lbs 4 oz. Rear Size: 19x10.0 Offset: +30mm Weight: 29 lbs 8 oz. not sure I can drop it too low...

Clean ride! Looks great for the amount of miles it has on it!
I'd repaint the mirrors to match the rest if the paint job and finish the bumper lights and then do the drop,(controll arm bushings) alignment, exhaust and manual swap <<<<<I'm waiting on parts myself
Good luck! because it's just too hot to be working on the car if it isn't broke
