Hi everyone! Just introducing myself, my name is Josh from Honolulu and here's my 2.8 Z3 
The last of season of SCCA in Honolulu was 2024 since we lost our last good open parking lot (all lots now have trees and light posts around). Since then, I've picked this up and decided to keep the car nearly stock apart from the exhaust. I've always been up and down keeping a second car not that there is no (legal) race scene. But, it's a joy to drive. I'm doing the last bit of the front suspension, then deciding if I really want to do the rear diff bushing or taking it to a shop with my arm and leg for sale.
Resto and mods:
- Replacement steering wheel leather from redleathergoods.com, I didn't like the quality but it's overall better than before lol
- Front suspension; sachs struts, lemforder LCA, top mount, end links, by Bavarian Motor Experts, Honolulu
- Rear suspension; none. Debating on bilsteins
- Exhaust; custom exhaust from RAD Motor sport Inc
- Wheels; Style 18, considering changing
- Resprayed black from PO
- All fluids refreshed (diff, transmission, coolant, oil)
I have a lot of photos from previous repairs working with the Bentley, hopefully I'll actually post them. Glad to be on a forum again since the vortex days haha
