    I didn't really do many pics while I was working on the suede. Just before and after pics. I have a few ppl interested in getting their interiors done so once that happens I may try a how-to.

    Im amazed at your attention to detail. Car is coming along amazingly. Please post more pics tho!! Even if it not an update. Exterior and interior shots would be cool.
    If only I could! TigerRacing is a small shop and doesn't have the means to fund a large build. Z1 on the other hand builds every day, but probably wouldn't want to waste their time. Best I can do is get discounts on items here and there.

    LoL and Nissan...we all know that's a whole other story.

    Thanks! I try to get most of the details, without being overly tacky. Trying to keep it simple, I guess is the word

    Will try to get more pics. Been really sick this week so no updates. I really need to finish putting the interior back together. Been having fitment issues argh! Always easier to take something apart than it is to put back together.

    I have ordered a new convertible top though and it should be here by the end of the week. Will have to find someone to install it for me since I've heard it's VERY difficult.

    Few other goodies are also on their way, and that will be my next update.

    I really don't know. LoL jk I learned most of this by just hanging out with friends that knew about cars and reading forums. Trial and error of course helps too!

    Thanks! I can't wait until it's done either and dyno or track would be fun! It's not all about show or go. It's about BOTH!

    Maybe you could talk Z1 into covering the labor charges for building the motor? They dont have to fund the whole thing, but would help right? Just tell em you'll rock the vinyl and take it to some shows.
