Hi Guys.after Some Research The Only Company I Can Find That Still List's The Imsa Style Flares I'm After Are Showcase Bodyparts.i've Read Numerous Reports On Bad Dealing's With These Guys,so It Would Be Big Risk With Me Being In England.are There Any Other Company's That Could Supply Me.here's A Pic Of The One's I'm After.

Has Anyone Elsed Noticed That For Quite A While The Options For Looking At The 100 Recent Photo's And 100 Random Photo's Doesn't Appear To Be Working??

yes your absolutely correct it ha d the ly x flow engine.this cylinder head was made by nissan and were made for group 4 racing only.nissan only had to make the heads,apply to homologate them,and then make them available for general public to be allowed to legally use them in competition.:

lovely.........

In Addtion Here Are Some Pictures Of The Red Road Car (with A Hint Of Aston Martin Interior I Think).

hi guys.in case you don't know,this blue race 240 was built in the early 90's by a fantastic company called FOURWAYS ENGINEERING in the uk.the car was one three built for a certain mr.Taylor who managed (maybe still) a rather well known 80's/90's pop band,Duran Duran.he built two road cars which were reported to have cost in excess of 70k each (remember over 15 years ago and in british pounds!!). the blue race z was commisioned later and rumours of anything between 140k to 250k have been mentioned.i'm in the process of gathering more information.information so far gathered is the race z was stripped and then rebodied in handcrafted alluminium panels.for weight reduction tubular steel wishbones were made for suspension,as was front and rear differentials.I spoke with the creator of this masterpiece today and it was quite clear that the owner has kept info minimal on his car and that it never raced officially and is kept in storage in uk.i've requested more info and photo's on the car,and he is going to ask the owner.this is probably the only photo released on the car. what do you think??

hi guys.please forgive my ignorance on this question.is it possible to fit power steering,possibly of 280,to 73 240z.the only reason i ask is that i'm possibly wanting to fit really wide wheels on my next project and know turning at slow speeds will be an issue.would this spoil the feel of the excellent 240 drive or maybe is it mechanically not viable?? opinions please..

sorry to repeat what's been said but that is lovely colour and a lovely car.what code is that? is it a proper z colour?.? niiiiiiiiiccce!!!

they look really nice.simple and clean look.

that's brilliant.i'll check this week on how much thread there is.thanks guys.

Hi Guys.when Installing My New Hoshino Impul Wheels On My 73 240z I've Noticed My Wheel Studs Don't Stick Out As Far And Therefore I Don't Have That Many Revolutions On My Nuts When Tightening Them.does Any One Know How Many Turns I Should Be Getting So There Are Safe? And If I Do Need Longer Studs Where They Are Available.thanks.

thank guys.

hi guys.does anyone know the best place to get black fairlady style mirrors from?

at last a picture of rota rb on a zed (i think!).they look fantastic.if you are the owner please respond.i would like to know what size and offset you have.the rota webpage only mention +12 offset.however on ebay i've seen +04 offset listed? love the deep flat polished lip.what do the rest of you guys think compared to the rewinds?

hi guys.i own 1973 240z and have car lowered approx 1".found some wheels 15 x 7 with +12 offset and 4 1/4" back space.really don't want the wheels to look too wide and stick out from arch as i'm wanting to upgrade but still keep car stock looking.please help.also what size tyre's should i go for.heard that although 50 profile tyre's look good but make ride quite hard and rough.remember our roads in england are not great.

the only 15" rim for 280zx i can think of was the swastica style but am fairly sure that was on the later turbo models.here's a pic.

hi goose.loved those wheels so much i think i've found some almost identical.have look at these.there from australia by performance wheels.we have distributor here in england so i'm sure they'll be one in the states.they come in silver like yours as well.you might get lucky with an odd one for a spare.really well priced as well.
