Ok, lets see:

I'm stiching the seat tomorrow (thank home-ec for that one!)
I'm cleaning Engine bay tomorrow
Washing Car
Cleaning Rims
Armorall the interior
Tighten handle in passenger door
Fix all other little things...

Red Zenki .. pshh .. in two months i'm painting Le Mans Sunset Racing Gold (350z orange/gold color).

Hopefully I can run to auto-zone and find a decent shift *** (if not, i'm ordering one, up for suggestions) and seat covers.

I'm NOT gutting the interior .. NOT going turbo (133k miles, first car) NOT getting CAI, SRI!! NOT swapping engine .. Can't test pipe, its illegal here (cops are ***** about it)
-- I'm going to be putting on a PDM-Racing GPS Bodykit ... i'm not sure what size rims/ offset to go with, anyone have an idea?

It just got ALL fluids changed, allignment, new rear brake pads, and tune-up. I don't mess around! lol

if you snip the brown wire you can still put them all the way up, but there's a sticky in the style section called sleepy eyes for dummies, it'll answer your questions, funny video too

Nice ride. Looks like mine when I first got it, cept mine had a lip and an SE. Yeah the engine bay and interior looks pretty nasty for someone that "babied" the car.
But it sounds like you're working on it real hard to make it look better, so that's good. GL with it.

The 1989 came with a 2.3 Litre Straight-4, single cam
might want to change that to 2.4 L on page 3 of your cardomain
