    I love the Zenki flares. I think it adds a lot of character to the car and gives it a classic look.

    Granted the kouki widebody reaps benefits stuffing huge wheel sizes under them. Just depends on what your going for. I like them all.

    Oh, so a nearly completely stock looking 84 Z31 2+2 that looks like it might have been a NA (chrome trim, missing turbo badge on the hatch) or turbo (front lip, trubo auto cooler hole, and spoiler) with aftermarket wheels has achieved a nice clean subtle look. Looks like Nissan hit a home run when it designed it stock since the only non-OEM part that you can see on the car is the wheels.

    It is a nice clean looking Z31 though.
    Restore it, Don't crush it. They don't make them like this anymore.

    Yeah, I thought about a kouki swap before…

    But everyone does that. And I do think the zenki/chuki has grown on me a hell of a lot more than the kouki ever will.

    But yeah, zenki/chuki 4 lyfe

    ^ I'm not seeing what the fuss is over this one. Looks like an S13 with a riced out body kit, bleh. Has some nice touches but overall comes off as tacky.

    Just my opinion, carry on

    I think where they went wrong was one hood vent too many, and the Z32 markers. That crap didn't even belong on a Z32.

    The box flares would really pop with some less lame wheels in there.

    Is that a kouki hood btw?

    I like the hood but they probably could've done w/o the front most pair as you said. I also like how they spliced an R32 GT-R bumper with the Z31 one, then went with z32 markers. It being a slick top, blue, and the rb26 helps too lol.

    I've thought about molding one of these fancy "rocket bunny" bumpers for an s13 to a z31. biggest problem is acquiring the kit, and then having the balls to cut into it.
