Yeah, suspension was pretty fun to install.

It seems like the front shocks have had lowering springs installed on them or something, because when we put the rear coupe (softer) suspension on his vert, it sat WAY up back there. Good thing I got an extra set of vert springs laying around!

I think the shifter is either a Miata or a C's Racing one, B&M never made an FC shifter, only one for an FD (but I might be wrong, I could not find a B&M one) also dont you mean 350Z wheels?

Nice job so far, man.
