List so far -

- Lightweight Drive Shaft
- UD Crank Pulley + OD Water Pump Pulley - I’ll have Licata’s throw these on if they’re doing the timing belt anyways
- [https://www.z1motorsports.com/air-intakes/jwt/jwt-300zx-pop-charger-intake-p-59.html](https://www.z1motorsports.com/air-intakes/jwt/jwt-300zx-pop-charger-intake-p-59.html) This is the most popular intake for NAs on the forums
- [https://www.z1motorsports.com/exhaust/hks/hks-hiper-cat-back-exhaust-system-p-88.html](https://www.z1motorsports.com/exhaust/hks/hks-hiper-cat-back-exhaust-system-p-88.html) This exhaust is most appealing to me and very popular on the forums, I will probably swap the rear bumper or get a diffuser to make it look a little better
- I’ll eventually get the PCM done, I wanna keep my stock one so I’ll just pay the core charge

It’s the t-tops that sold me. I loved every second of it. I plugged in my phone and cranked the tunes. My dad was next to me in his 1.4L Turbo Malibu and we were neck and neck from transit/maple to transit/sheridan lmao

I was at Licata’s today and mentioned to Russ the owner that we sent ya there 👍

My NA had the following mods:

- UR pulley
- HKS hyper exhaust
- Test pipes
- Single filter JWT POP intake
- HKS ALC (for auto trans)
- 1.5" lowering springs
- A bunch of suspension upgrades
- SS brake lines

I didn’t get a chip because it was too expensive at the time for the gains.

One IMPORTANT thing to keep in mind is when the weather gets cold, if you smell gas you have a small fuel leak from the old rubber fuel lines. This won’t happen in the summer. It’s mainly a cold weather issue if the lines are old.

And if you store it over the winter, when you get inside after a few months it’ll smell AMAZING due to the natural leather. I love that smell, lol.

I’ll be doing all these! My biggest issue is figuring out what wheels I can buy that’ll fit nice without sticking out, I’ve never needed to deal with offset and this shit is giving me a headache. I’ll probably do 18s.

Looking at these - [https://www.ebay.com/i/372170974615?norover=1&mpt=[CACHEBUSTER]&siteid=0&ipn=admain2&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-158885-639833-3&mkcid=4&placement=532140&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5pvHjtP06QIVyUMMCh1aLAgGEAEYASABEgLJO\_D\_BwE](https://www.ebay.com/i/372170974615?norover=1&mpt=%5BCACHEBUSTER%5D&siteid=0&ipn=admain2&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-158885-639833-3&mkcid=4&placement=532140&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5pvHjtP06QIVyUMMCh1aLAgGEAEYASABEgLJO_D_BwE)

Anything bigger than 18" just looks off on these cars IMO. Do some image searching and you’ll see.

You need to pay attention to the offset and back spacing otherwise you’ll end up needing a spacer to clear the front calipers, as well as longer wheel studs to keep proper thread engagement.

When I bought my wheels I had @Inn-Tune help me. That was like a decade ago, lol. They didn’t make the wheels I wanted in the proper offset so I’m running a 5mm spacer up front. And my caliper clearance is legendary. Fits a sheet of paper in between the caliper and spokes, but only when the caliper is at operating temp. Track temps actually caused scalloping on the inside of the wheels.

I can’t remember if there are any good wheel resources out there but I’ll look.

I’ve been going through the forums and people are split on 17s and 18s 50/50

Funny enough found out today there’s a guy at my work with a 1990 but maroon, says he has 19s, 275 in back, non-turbo, but they stick out a bit, which I think looks silly

Oh yeah, he was a contractor I think. Let me borrow a couple nail guns when I did my roof.

That’s more a function of the offset / backspace. I have 18x10 295 in the rear and they don’t stick out.

Nope unless your a dealership and even then they can only go on Tuesdays. You have to wait for them to call. Took my friend 2 weeks to get in to the Cheektowaga location
