Hey all. This is going to be my offical build thread. I recently purchased a 2004 Touring Fully Loaded 6 speed Z. The only problem was, it was a theft recovery. The thieves presented a fake ID and had the car gone for a little over one hour! And this is the outcome. This car is going to take me a little while to get together because I'm a 19 year old college student. I paid for the car myself and have to pay for everything, so funds are limited after paying for my apartment at school, phone, insurance on the other car, gas, etc. Here are pics of the car as I bought it.















Here's what I've got since I got the car:






Things I need: (bold= I have the item)
Hood
HID Headlights
Passenger side fender
Lower center console w/ AC controls
Upper center console with gauges
Airbox
Nismo Front Bumper *on the way*
Nismo Side Skirts
Nismo rear extensions *on the way*
Driver's side fender
Door Sills
BOSE headunit
Radiator *on the way*
Rad. support
Engine cover
Battery/other corner cover
Front bumper reinforcement
Headrest


What else can you see that I need? Feel free to copy paste my list or just state things that you see missing that I need!

Coomer- Yeah it does seem that way... it seems really light in terms of the rest of the car... but it's had no paint work, body work, etc.

eggman- nope just an oem hood

Romas- yeah I know This is the part that worries me the most... I'm trying to find a rear ended Z to cut out its loom so i can replace or just cut it and solder them together. I really need to get a friend of mine here to take his front end off so we can inspect everything further.

DeW- yeah that tire shine is top on my list of priorities!

daazndood- nah this is my first Z. This is my second car (first one obviously being the celica!)

Thanks for the comments guys... I hope to keep this thread as up to date as possible with assembly and all that jazz... It's going to be a great learning experience for me
