Went out for some folding chairs

This looks awesome

No way! I LOVE the pop-ups.

Nice purchase Norb! I also like the factory wheels.

A+ lol.

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

Sleepy headlights FTW.

I’m with ya on this, I like the old school pop-ups. Congrats on the pickup!

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

I really like the factory wheels. Leave them and make it fast!

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.

I know this is probably stupid, but it was never mentioned in the thread. MT?

is this thing turbo yet or what?

All FRC(fixed roof coupe) vettes were manual IIRC

I would be all over a vette kit after seeing what austin at stm did with his recently. Looked amazing.

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

little single out back would be really fun on a stock motor. I really really really wanna keep this thing comfortable and quiet and daily-able

Very cool, Congrats!

Super cool. I am not up on Vette’s but I just knew this was MT.

Very nice looking car. :bigtup:

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

Yes, I agree with this 100%

Says the guy who put lambo headlights on a Nissan…

pics?

Does it feel faster than the bmw?

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.
