No way! I LOVE the pop-ups.

Nice purchase Norb! I also like the factory wheels.

The sleepy look reminds me of the stanceworks/driftboyz that do that to the old FC RX7s and AE86s with the fucked up bumpers zip tied on. The projector thing is just too modern for the styling, too bug eyed, reminds me of bulging eyes on a Transformers character. No way.

I am going to test fit some M5 style 65s in the next few weeks

I’ve got a nice set of 243’s that would work great with Mingle’s parts. 😉

I did the zip tie intake mod the day after I got it - seems like I picked up a couple whp on the butt dyno. Love that free shit.

Plugs/wires will be here this week, I plan on changing all drivetrain fluids and filters this week as well. Need those jacking pucks to get it on the lift.

Plan on doing an LS6 intake as well in the next month or two.

yeah the FRC only came in a stick. this particular car also has a few other goodies like the dual zone HVAC, non-power pass seat, sport suspension (Z51 I think) and the rare lightweight mag wheels

IMO there are no good looking headlight mods for these that look better than stock. Embrace the flip ups!

It’s kind of a 300zx inside joke. The last generation Lambo Diablo gave up it’s flip up headlights for 300zx headlights. But on the Diablo the “Nissan” is covered up by a carbon fiber strip.

I actually have J-Spec headlights from the '99 model 300zx which are factory HID.
