Message Well, I was going to wait and post about my car when it was more to my liking this spring, but it's cold here in WI and I'm anxious to show you guys what I've been up to since my last Z was in an unfortunate accident this past August. I picked up a 93' TT about 350 miles from home, drove her here and tore into the engine the bay the next day... Here's a pic of the accident:



At least they let me keep the wheels =)

Onto the pics.....
Here's what I found when I opened the hood... Cosmoline is nasty.



After some cleaning, etc...



After a new T-belt, H2O pump, auto-tensioner, etc. etc.



And the finished product: Those are the RVM hard pipes if anyone is inetersted. Also, you can catch a glimpse of the Nismo 555's at the #1 cylinder. There's a pile of new OEM stuff in there.. I won't even get started.



It's first day out of the garage in 2.5 months:



The J-spec shift knob:


My hopefully temporary boost gauge. (I thought it safer to have *something* to accurately check the boost until I pick up some good stuff):

Here's a pic of the exhaust I'm having installed just as soon as I get he emissions tested. It's no Labree (=(), but I picked it up for $350 new. It's identicle to the exhaust Courtesy Nissan sells:




Nice welds, IMO...



And the WAGZ shot... *bling bling* =)


BIG thanks to COZ. He is the MAN when it comes to ordering OEM parts. Thanks to Z1 and ASHZ for the stg. 3 ECU, you guys were very helpful. And thnaks to the guy that finished polishing my plenum, etc... I would have died finishing it myself.
Unfortunately, I won't get to really drive her until spring. Damn the snow and the salt.
Hope you guys all enjoyed. I owe all of the work I did to this forum... it's really helped me to appreciate the Z32, and the information on here is amazing.. thanks guys.

~Mike
