  1. Hello everyone, My name is Mark, I am new to the Houston area. I own/built my 1972 hybrid 240z. It's a 350SBC swap with 700r4 tranny. It also has a 75 shot just for fun. I just picked up a 78 280z that surprisingly still runs after decades of neglect. Iplan on restoring this one so my daughter and wife can drive it. Hope to use this site and resources to answer my questions along the way. Anyways hello everyone.
  2. yes sir, that is the plan. Painting chrome no good. I just put a vintage air unit in the z, so recooping from that right now:)
  3. Offset is -13 on fronts and -19 on rears. I was worried about the clearance of the spring perches in the rear, but there is plenty of clearance. And the color is Chrysler Champion Silver. Its a dark silver, almost gray. Goes well with the matte black hood, wheels, and fender flares. Looking to remove the chrome from door handles and drip sill next. But the looks still is goot.
  4. I am running the Tokico Blues and Tokico 280 springs on my 240z. Now I have a 350 sbc in mine, so ride height is close to stock. I recently purchased the Rota Rb's in 17x9.5® and 17x9(f). I have a set of Sumitomo htz2(?) in 275/40/17 and 245/40/17. The height appears to be slightly higher due to taller diameter tire (25.8" tall). I had to cut quite a bit of rear fender out. Nothing on the front fender, but I had to shave the inner edge off of my MSA air dam. Oh and I am running the zg fender flares. Ride is a little stiff, but it's not as stiff as my ride in the garage:) Here is a pic of her: By evolvin at 2009-11-04
