    Nice stuff!

    What springs do you have? Looks like the rear is about 1" taller than front......

    What type of seats do you have? They look pretty nice!

          thanks guys, the springs are tokico reds...they do sort of make the rear look all jacked up. i wish i had gotten some STs instead. The seats are nismos that i bought from crabapple on 88hybrid.

                  i paid $275 for them. crabapple delivered them himself to my house.
                  i have no idea what he paid for them but it looks like the same ones are on ebay for $170.

                    I think I have found them!

                    I won't expect these to be real Nismo's with price like this, but they sure look nice. Was it pretty difficult to mount? How about the ride quality?

                      mine are probably knock offs too but they seem to be good quality. definitely alot lighter than the stock ones. i think the stock seats actually have better bolstering. crabapple did all the mounting work to the stock rails. i can take some pics of what he did but it looks like he welded a piece of metal from the mounting bolts on the seat to the top of the rails.

                        I gotta admit, the 350Z wheels look awesome on the Z31.

                        Just my opinion though.

                            Matt, just read your post...

                            Had them on my gold 87 2+2 and yes, to do look really nice. got the rims and good tires for $400 bucks. Wish my "new" 85 was a 5 lugger. You can use 84-85 ZX center caps and they look sharp too. Had a set in my garage, they were a little loose, I put a strip of electrical tape around the outside of the little clips on the caps and they stayed on and in place and they'll fit over the front bearing dust cap with no problem, try it you'll like it. There's an older square M30 in a j-yrd near me with 4 lugs, it has a full set of aftermarket alloy rims on it I may have to go for. 2 center caps are missing though, might be somewhere in the car. Was there that day to get an 88 ECU for my 85 and didn't get a chance to go through the M..
                            Currently on my 15th ZX, it's an obsession i just can't stop. Got written up in SportZ mag with 12 of my previous Z cars...

                              thanks for the tip about the centercaps 8) never heard of using them before but now that i think about it they would look good on the z33's. nice find on the m30 wheels. do you remember what kind they were? make sure you post some pics if you get them.
