This is just for a rough idea of how it's gonna look. Here's a lowdown






I got busy with the body work or sort of ghetto style! Zip ties and masking tape. Removed some shitty trim on the side of the car and it looks so much better. I wasn't sure how to mount the flares. Right on lip of the fenders or over the edge. The wheels look super tucked with it mounted on the lip but looks kinda weird... i dunno It matched up pretty well on the lip but something just wasn't right. I'm retard and smoking crack...butt crack that is. It just started to rain otherwise I'd mount these ******* on and flat black the spoiler. The spoiler is getting a nice helping of fiberglass to hold it on besides just some nuts and bolts. This isn't gonna be some showcar so I could care less about that it's not perfect. I may give it a rattle can paint job since I have quite abit of holes to fill in and paint it later. I have these that I was planning on using for it also but the volvo needs some basic stuff like a new CV joint and some other little things. Damn daily drivers! Only RHB5's but lag would be pretty minimal. Maybe a little later I'll pick another pair up and go forth with it.

I drove it yesterday around acouple of block since my turn signals don't work, no seat belts and I don't have insurance on it yet. Thats just an accident waiting to happen. It fired right up after tossing the jump pack on it since the optima that was in it was totally dead so it's getting charged up as we speak. It sounded so nice and felt good to shift since the brick is auto.

Sounds fun mine was just the opposite, was a turbo350 tranny with a shift kit and chirped the tires shifting everytime, started up every time unless it was hot and on a hill slanting forwards

Why what? Did you think I said the Z was an auto? The brick as in my volvo is auto. And the spoiler I mean as in front spoiler or if you want to call it a bumper but it's not really a bumper or even a skin since the bumper is just metal bar that sticks out and is long gone before I even got the car.

i think its technicaly supposed to be a "front air damn" but eh, i think i may have had the same one only black that i got at a datsun meet

lookin good so far in any case, those flares i think are a bit over-done.. your gonna need some meaty tires for that rear end if you want traction (although your manual so you probably have better control then i did lol) did you end up sticking with the R-180 or switch to a R-200?

it's just got the stock open diff. It's my way of conserving rubber when I peel out.
