I sure hope we arent back to that pattern where when your car is driving mine is not and vice-versa.
I love the Z! Glad to see it finally out and being enjoyed
Haha yes! Seemed like we were in that pattern for a bit with our old cars, huh?

That stance is perfect, this car looks great.Thanks man! Paint is a little rough around the edges, but that will eventually be sorted out. Runs great, so thats all that matters right now, lol.

Thanks to @Rekpoint for the deal on the e36 racing dynamics strut brace. Got it installed this morning on the coupe. Needed just a bit of clearancing on underside of hood and for the strut tower ground lug. Otherwise fits great!

M3 setup?
Yup! M3 clutch & pressure plate with a jb racing lightweight flywheel. Along with a DSSR and all new shifter parts and detents.

Tomorrow is clutch day! Taking the Z to a friend's shop to use his 2-post lift to knock it out before the salt flies.
Finished up installing parts on the spare transmission. It got all new detents, new slave cylinder, SS braided clutch line, shift fork pin & spring, shift rod joint, UUC DSSR, shift bushings and Redline MT-LV fluid.
Will be doing the rear main seal, JB racing lightweight flywheel, M3 pressure plate & spring hub clutch disc with new throwout bearing and pilot bearing as well.

love the parts setup pics! curious to hear your review on the LTW flywheel

Job is done and very well worth it! Didn't get a whole lot of pics, but got a few. First drive home makes me not want to put it in garage for winter yet. Lol. Revs like a son of a bitch and shifting is very smooth with new detents.
I did screw up and bought the wrong DSSR. The one I got was for the e36, thinking it was the same. Well, the Z3 shift arm is almost twice as long as the e36. Had to reuse the stock arm for now and will be ordering the correct one to swap in over winter.
All-in-all I'm very happy with the result and will be tough to take it easy next spring to break-in the clutch correctly.

So uh, do you have a spare ZF now? And are you planning on selling it to me lol

It's already accounted for, lol. @wasnt m3 was nice enough to lend me his spare ZF to rebuild before I did the clutch job. So now my old one gets rebuilt and given back.
