Thumbs up W.I.P.: NISMO Z-Tune "Light Tuned" (pics resized)

Hi there. Yeah yeah, I know... Another Z-Tune. Well, it's true. But the difference is that this isn't stock. I'm lightly modifying that beast, nothing "hard".
Just take a look:

This is the Acu-Stion P-E set for the Z-Tune. It's a quite difficult to understand because it has no instructions. Any help is welcome


The rear suspension






Rear Brake Disc


Front diff attached




And the front brakes already glued


More pics soon!!

I want to tell that this project is going slow, and I haven't decided some things to build on this model. For now I know that I want to paint the car white, with the NISMO stripes along the sides and the bonet. I have not decided the color of the rims (I supous those are going to be in some kind of Bronze), if add the roll cage, the wing (I've created a post for that), if apply CF to the bonnet, or if paint a Racing stripe along the up side of the car... Things to decide yet

Comments are welcome

SEE YOU!!

I'd love to comment, but those pictures are HUGE and I can't see the whole thing at one time, which makes it hard. I'll keep tabs on this thread, though. Also, a tip... pull back from the piece when taking a picture: it will allow for a sharp focus. I can't wait to see the smaller pictures!

Nice job.

What kind of kevlar decal did you used for the shaft?

Re: W.I.P.: NISMO Z-Tune "Light Tuned" (huge pics inside)

Mmmm... I used The Kevlar 1 Pattern Decal from Modeller's, bought on HLJ.com. The result is no exactly the original of the car, but gives to the model a better look than the black painted shaft. I'm glad you ask!.

That's the real thing:
