Mistress UPDATE.....

   I have done a lot of updates since these pictures were posted. 

 

NOS parts include...motor parts, Nissan head gasket, new valves, valve seats, guides and springs, cam shaft (which had a big chunk missing), water pump, starter, decked the head, refurbished original radiator, all new freeze plugs.

 

In the interior...new dash and center console.  I put new Afco water temp. and oil pressure gauges in the center console.  I also put the factory clock in the dash. 

 

My favorite update is my NISMO rims and Serenity tires.  This was a pain in the ass job.  Got new axle seals, NISMO extended wheel studs and spacers.  Had to make a couple tools for axle wheel stud job.  I also lowered the truck 3" with Beltech lowering blocks.

 

After all of this work I drove my Mistress 2 days and then she wouldn't start...wouldn't you know it the battery died on me.  So I also bought a new yellow top Optima battery for her.

Thank you! They look amazing. 16x7 offset 39 right?

Do you have any issues with rubbing in the front? I keep finding wheels that I think are great, but most I find have too much negative offset and hit the footwell with one turn of the steering wheel.

Passed up steelies with slightly used race tires too..
