300zx underbody RESTORATION | Abandoned 300zx ep9

Before getting the engine in, I thought this was the perfect moment to give the underbody some love. This isn’t a full underbody resto by any means but perfect time to do it with the fenders off and trans/engine still not in the car! We’ll finish the job later down the road :) probably when we do subframe bushings or something like that..

    What size are your wheels? 17 or 18 to clear the new brakes? My z is in desperate need of a big brake kit

    • @Radwerkes
      @Radwerkes 5 месяцев назад

      The Regas are 17” and are probably one of the worst wheels for brake clearance lol! Will definitely fit these Z33 brembos but R35’s probably won’t fit and I don’t think Akebonos would fit behind them. Something like a 18” TE you can fit about any kit behind it though(I think 17” Te can fit a 6 pot..) Can confirm though, it’s a welcomed upgrade over the stock brakes with some nice pads 👍.

    love the videos, do NOT use the center divider in your ams down pipes, it will cause you to have boost creep if you want to run anything over 12 psi. just re locktight those bolts into the down pipes to seal the holes. and leave those dividers in the scrap bin.. they will cause you tuning issues down the road if you decide to crank the boost up. ask me how i know. this is well known in z32 community sadly.

    Pay the price for quality parts...cry once...The z32 is a japanese Ferrari. The reason why AMS is so frowned upon is because all they do is copy the quality stuff and farm it out to china. Meanwhile the person or shop that put in the R&D and spent all the money loses out every time.

      Very true, if I was to do it again. I would have just re-used a lot of my stock parts and waited for the polar kits. unfortunately for my situation of when I bought all the parts they were the only ones labeled “in stock” which was a lie.. also money did have a factor to play but it is a ces’t la vie moment.
