So as of Friday, I will be in the US. We are doing another massive road trip. 38 states. After this one, there will be only 3 states I haven't been through, North Dakota, Alaska and Hawaii. I am very pumped! I will be stopping into Z1 Motorsport just outside of Atlanta to do some shopping. QLDZDR has already gave me some excellent ideas. I will be a little restricted as it will need to fit my suitcase. However, worse comes to worse, I'll buy another bag and pay the $100 extra to get it back. Still cheaper than shipping. I have the current shopping list: Tailights+center panel = http://www.uniqueautosports.com.au/...ries-4)tail-lights-for-nissan-300zx-2221.aspx UAS front bar = http://www.uniqueautosports.com.au/Parts-Shop/uas-2000-model-front-bar-for-300zx-1074.aspx Front lip = http://www.rgsperformance.com/product/twinz-design-type-ii-lip/ Smoked side indicators = https://www.z1motorsports.com/produ...cts_id=3051&osCsid=08e6uio6j1a3ig79eb92dsc1v5 Clear side rear markers = http://www.rgsperformance.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/rear-sidemarkers-270x270.jpg Windshield cowl = https://conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=10767 Undershield = https://www.z1motorsports.com/produ...cts_id=4581&osCsid=08e6uio6j1a3ig79eb92dsc1v5 Any other ideas?
Whoops, missed that one off. I am getting that from Unique Auto Sports. I deleted most of the other non-Z1 stuff. Should proof read better.
lol just realised I copied and pasted my old list. Basically, Ill be picking up new UAS rear lights and center piece, smoked UAS indicators for the front and back, speaker brackets for the front and back, and a couple of other Nismo small bits and pieces.
feel free to bring me back a t-shirt or stickers will definitely save on shipping costs. have a safe and awesome trip and post some pics of route 66 if you are heading that way
We are most certainly doing Rt 66 this time around. Hopefully we will land a Chrysler 300 as planned. Should be a decent run at this time of year. North of Chicago will be interesting. Winter last year was pretty hardcore. It was -24 whilst we were there last year. We have about 2 weeks until that point so hopefully some of it melts down. I am looking at picking up a TT within the first month of coming back. The new parts I pick up will mostly be for that.
i was gonna say i didn't think a front bar was gonna fit in a suitcase hahah sounds like a great trip mate. enjoy z1 for all of us
Sounds like a great trip, very lucky! So few suggestions... I'd grab the tail lights & centre panel from z1 rather than uas, should be a decent saving. (I grabbed a set from coz my first trip over & they came on contiki with me!) I don't know why you'd pay more for the fibreglass uas version of the 2k bar when you can pay a lot less & get the genuine one from Rob or your local Nissan dealer. Grab the indicators & the appropriate looms from z1 though. Windscreen cowls in the link are for lhd, make sure they sell a rhd version! Otherwise happy shopping!
If you can afford it, get the 2k spec hid zenon headlights with associated wiring ie : https://conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=757 should be cheaper if you offer cash always haggle you girls are good at that And if you can't fit all of your Zed stuff into your suitcases, just USPS it home, their rates are quite good and if well packed arrive the same way.
Sounds like a good idea, except they are LHD and we want RHD. but anyone who is holidaying in UK or Japan remember that suggestion.
Buy tools too. they are heaps chesper over there. i got 2 quality set of rchet spaners and a few other things for just under 100usd. (about 2 years ago)
Yes so shopping for the 99spec headlights would only get a result in a RHD country, we would assume. Then I just got a message that the nismo shop in California sells genuine Nissan Xenon headlight set for USD$1500 Maybe they mod them?
