These braces are from member Cully. I cleaned the front one up and sprayed it before I installed it. Im real happy with them. Thanks again Cully.

And on a side note, a 96 / 97 Z34 would make a great DD. I've always liked those cars. My Mom had a black 96 Z34 that I used to beat on when I was 17 / 18 yrs old. :lol:

The rear bar is from HELD motorsports I believe. A real great design IMO. My Z is awesome for daily driving. Its big and comfortable to drive, quiet on the road (except the exhaust lol) and it has plenty of power. Ive surprised many other people who try to race it. It gets beat on its fair share but I try and make up for it by taking good care of the car. The only thing that sucks is that it gets terrible gas mileage while cold. I drive to school everyday less than a mile away and average 14mpg. When I am home tho I get 17-18mpg city.

 

Oh yeah, I never did mention, the bars perform GREAT. I noticed the biggest difference with the rear one. I installed it yesterday and drove it. The rear seems alot tighter and doesnt want to "roll" out when I hit a tight corner. The front one wasnt as big of a difference but its still there. I installed it this morning and drove it. It seems like it follows the wheels better instead of dragging the front end around the corner.

Ooo I was wondering how the front looked so shiny again, great job!

 

And yeah that Held bar is great, I paid a premium for it but I think it was worth it... great design. Really nice guy if you ever talk to him too.

 

Glad these went to a good home matt

My AWeb RSTB makes a huge difference.

 

I thought the verts came with one standard?

no just the front, and you cant put a rear in the verts because the top would hit it, and not go all the way down.

Adam sent me the wrong bar the first time around and I didn't discover it until I had sanded, primed and painted it! It was an inch too short. I now use that bar for leverage. Broke a T-60 socket with it the other day! Good times.
