Hey guys, sorry its been a minute. Life got in the way of the Z haha. Got hitched, bought a place, night school to get degree, new job and had a kid.
New place has a 600 sq ft shop with same size basement under it. Got some other tools and storage things, as well as a (free) mill table to turn into a weld table someday.
New daily.
Not much has changed on it to be honest, but getting the itch to get back into it.
Some guys asked why the cage roof bar was angled slightly down back to the main hoop. This gap should explain that, I hope.
Dash bar through the steering column mount. Stock heater core fits.
S14 subframe, S13 HICAS rack, S14 JDM sway bar & mounts, SPL tension rods, S14 knuckles, S14 coilovers.
Rear subframe and mount waiting for the new solid bushings.
Z32 NA finned diff cover w/ SPL solid diff bushings.
StopTech Z33 Track Pack 324mm rotors and pads for the CTS-V Brembos.

Turned up 6061 subframe bushings to fit the new mounts perfectly.
Almost have the furnace hooked up - I ran gas out to shop, just need some ducts and to close it all in. Actually want to work on the Z this winter.
