Installed the bushings and RUCAs. I installed the KAAZ into the open diff casing but ended up having some play in the gears, I’m going to pull it back out tomorrow and check the shims. I should have the car together this weekend if all goes well. ---

So I finished up a bunch of work to the car, but still have some things to work out. Installed the subframe bushings, coilovers, 300zx front brakes, 5 lug all around and the set of 18" failmax. I dropped the car a bit but I need spacers for the front and a fender roll for the rear to drop it any lower. I’m still running the welded diff until I get the KAAZ shimmed so it doesn’t destroy my gears. The gap between the rear wheels and fenders don’t match up, I’ll have to check that again (about a 1/4" difference) and the drivers side rear is flush with the fender but the pass side sticks out a bit, might need a camber adjustment. I’ll have to get an alignment anyway. The welded makes the car hop around quite a bit and makes a knocking sound in the rear somewhere, I still can’t pin-point where. But overall the car looks pretty good and the Stance coilovers have pretty nice ride. I’ll get some pics up later today.
