The camaro lacks classic styling and isn't even a sports car. For 20 years the L-series engine was second to the 350 in terms of popularity for modifying and upgrades. -
So how were the races?

I'm not offended in any way by what Morton wrote. Nissan designed and built the car to ride better than you might think a sports car would. Didn't the first one end up a racer with BRE or Bob Sharp because a model sat on the hood or the roof and bent it? That would be more damning in my book than building a car that had a soft ride, especially when the competition was like riding in an oxcart.

Saw one of these screaming down the Expressway on Okinawa in 1982. It was chasing a pair of Skylines that had raced by a minute or two prior. It didn't have a G-nose though. Now they use the V-8 Toyotas on the Expressways. -
I'm with you on that. I think of the 240-260-280 as rice from a different era. I will say though I've met more muscle car fanatics who like the early Zs than Honda Civics tricked out.

In my experience the su's performance overall was preferable to the DGV's The Webers were great for mileage, but a good set of tuned and maintained su's is tough to beat for performance unless you go to triples.

I may have a shot of the interior, the engine, and the sticker on the windshield but it'll be awhile before I can post them. -
What a great thing to be able to take your lady for a ride in your toy, and she doesn't mind a bit. -
This was the "Nostalgic heroes car show" held in Tokyo this past Spring. I think they do 2-3 car shows throughout Japan and I caught this one at Tokyo Big Site. There was also an auto auction going on in the gallery hall next door and there were several Skylines from 15-3 years old on the block but no Fairladys. -
I'm so glad Toyota never tried hard to market this car. It's got awesome lines, but I wonder if there would have been a Z car as we know it. They really missed the mark and the Celica just did't measure up. -
I've got to believe they sell for about 3-4 times what you could get one for in the states. I don't know if Nissan sold roadsters in Australia. -
I really wish they had sold Skylines in the States, the fastbacks really are graceful. -
She was a real sport about the trip...I don't think she knew what she got herself in to. What killed me about the color was how deep the metallic finish was on the, very good work. -
I appreciate everyone's help, it's a relief to have cracked that nut.

This may be the most anyone would ever see at one time, I know it was for me.

This car makes the rounds at shows in Japan. It is a really nice exampleof a ZG racecar. -

I've always preferred the lines of the fastbacks.
