New (very lucky) guy here

Hey everyone. Newbie on the forums here!
My friend bought a 91 z32 from a guy that came with a complete spare engine.

He went and bought a roller body that had been widened in the rear to accommodate larger tires. A lot of the wiring is still in tact. The drive shaft is in place along with all four wheels with tein electronically adjustable coilovers. The windows and locks are in place and work. There's also a full roll cage.

What's missing though? The engine (hence roller), transmission, driveshaft, I think the rear axle, and a lot of the interior. Ummmm front bumper, and a lot of things under the hood.

Now he bought it for a friend who was going to pay him back....who never did, now me being this guys best friend and brother practically, rendering me his best man when he gets married, is going to give me the whole package. For free. :ic on_super:

My intentions are still far and beyond practical. Not looking for a power beast tho. Maybe 450rwhp tops. Maybe auto cross it. And then a to show off. I admit it

The car came standard, but trying to get a big cool factor out of it mainly, I want to try the saws paddle kit and hopefully other mods to beef up the tranny, therefore wanting to switch to an auto (plus the gf will drive it occasionally once fully built).
Next ideas are push button start, custom wrapped panels in interior, small but effective full alpine system (probably a PDX-v9, with full type s components and sub), amongst other things.

Glad to get that out of my system. I'm glad to join the forums

Thanks for the vid!
But I remember seeing an alarm and remote/push button start aftermarket system somewhere.
But instead of the supplied button I'd use one on an aftermarket steering wheel.
