Its pretty awesome as-is, but I think it would be cool to restore it back to what it was. It would be basically the only way for me to modify my car on the cheap, as stock parts go VERY cheap. If I could lower my car and actually survive my daily commute, I'd slam it, but that just wouldn't work
What say you, Oppo? I would still keep all the aftermarket parts to restore it to awesome-spec later.

But your wheels are so perfect.

If you slam it, your car will slowly be destroyed and will be miserable! It's a really clean Z32 with low miles, so I think having it be all-original would not only be cool but increase value. It's a decision you should make, though. Some good aftermarket wheels and tires along with a non-brotastic suspension setup would make the car better, mind you. Your wheels look pretty awesome and some eibachs/bilsteins would do the trick for handling. If you're still trying to sell it, having it stock could help.

You don't think some mild performance stuff like bilstein hd shocks, eibach prokit springs, and some sway bars would survive the commute?
If you did some kind of wheel/tire setup with more meat on it, and less stretch, you could definitely commute with that suspension and still have pretty solid handling.
Therefore I propose the following:
1. Put stock wheels with cheap/good tires on car.
2. Sell current aftermarket wheels/tires.
3. Use money from wheels to buy suspension stuff that's not crazy.
4. Profit? Eh, maybe break even...

And coil overs are soooooo expensive, and I'd rather drive my car!

I thought you were selling it a few days ago? Did you change your mind again? bone stock altho not that exciting is the absolute best way to preserve it's value. the con being it does not look quite as cool but it does look twice as clean.
totally stock with a shaved engine bay could command top dollar IMO.

Either option is good. On one hand, you can have a car like you'd drive it off the lot 20 years ago, or you could have a faster car! I'm having the same dilemma, but my car's basically stock as-is. Some wheels, tires, chassis and suspension upgrades, big brakes, and heavy duty clutch would need to happen for my car to be suitable for track use. Those things would make the car harder to live with, and it's no Camry to begin with! I don't have the money for all of that stuff now, but in the future I'll have decisions to make...

I'm not doing anything expensive. I could probably get all the parts for $250. Plus I'd keep the current set up for shows

Stillen counts as 90's spec right?

it's hard to tell from that angle. does the fuel flap position give it away? I can tell the difference from a side angle between the coupe and the 2+2

TT and NA have the same body, unless it's a 2+2. This is TT because of the lip andspoiler

OEM+ is the way to go. Not stock, not fully modded. Slight drop with exhaust mods and 350Z/370Z/G37 Wheels would be perfect :) maybe even some stillen parts
