Interested to see how this turns out. I realised I have an obsession for them now :O

Impul had designed some of the nicest kits/parts for the z32 imo..Really nice zed Graham :)

You're keeping the skirts then ;-).

I got in contact with a guy from Australia and he has a set of original catalogues so feast your eyes on this :)

With regards to the front bumper from impul...its so much like an 89 OEM unit in many ways but f/g so i removed mine and went for a "bendy" 89,er as it always fought a better battle with speed bumps ect;)

Speedbumps I would agree as i have a crack in the bottom, but its quite good quality fibreglass and not fitment problems, But then it should be costing nearly £2k in 1990 for the front bumper alone...

 

Its just a bit cooler than the 89 unit imo. And although it looks simelar, lots of the shapes are changed and its just really a unique bumper for me.

So back on the trailer taking it back to work where I can use the ramp to do some more work, carrying on stripping everything of for painting,only so I know it will get painted properly, sanding down all underneath ready for some new under seal and wax oil, then exhauste and prop shaft of ready for a new one piece to be fitted.

Some more

Good work!

 

Are you cutting out that rust under the filler cap? You'll need to as it will come straight back though.

Had a good night on the zed under sealing the whole car and wax oiled all in side,a real messy job but well worth it, it will last for years now.

Came home last night to a nice surprise:) great to fit some new nissan parts,can't wait to get my parts of simon lee:) he's done a great gob;)

Loving this project Graham :drool:
