Correction looks like several have bought one so far. Yeah it is on ebay. I can make it compatable with Macs but it costs me another $100 so just windows ops right now.

If we told you what it is that would ruin the surprise. I am sure you will see it on numerous Z Car sites. Hallmark Cards, Nintendo and Comedy Central are already developing protoypes of the same software.

We are beta testing a new software that is specifically designed for Classic Z Car owners. We will be contacting you soon Mike. Now be nice little boys and girls or Santa will not bring you one:classic:

Just curious what kind of radio everyone has in their Z. Any type of custom speakers?CD players? I am shopping around for a cd player and new speakers.

I had an alaskan husky as a kid. Best dog we ever had. We used to sit in the back of the station wagon and get him to howl at the moon on road trips.

I always tell people if you drive one you will probably buy one. Z's are fun to drive on curvy roads. I am no expert but guess it might have something to do with them being built so low to the ground as well. The drawback is trying to use a drive up ATM machine. Need long arms. I swear they are made for SUV's.

I guess I am lucky since my 280 does not seem to have many engine related problems. I did have my fuel injectors cleaned out and this did solve any hesitation problems. Mine does hate cold weather and it will not move unless it is warmed up. Other than that I dont have any problems and have taken it to Atlanta and Tampa a few times- 6 hour drives. for as old as my baby is she runs like a champ :classic:

I am having all new carpet installed but I have one major problem. Water is leaking onto the passenger floorboard. Under the dash. I disconnected the hose from the blower motor and I have major rust where it connects under the dash. I am trying to avoid having to remove the entire dash. I removed the cowl under the wipers which is not much help in getting to the area that needs to be fixed. any suggestions? quickest way to take the dash out?

I would be interested as well. Own a 280 - Jacskonville, FL

I own a 280. They look ugly as sin. Look like wheels you would see on a honda not a Z

I wonder if the guy had them re-chromed?

Actually my garage is not very big compared to the space in the house. I guess the picture makes it look larger than it really is:classic:

Thanks for all the info. I think I will try the wheel polishing shop suggestion. I tried using Mother's and the drill with a hard buffer but they still dont shine like the wheels in those pics on ebay.

I own these same type of rims. I have tried but I am not able to get mine to shine like these. Any suggestions? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2433935073&category=43954 Rims Link

I own a 280z with a 5 speed and could not catch one the other day. I tried to catch him from behind and only started about 2 lengths behind him. It was some type of very small honda but I would not be surprised if his engine had some type of mods done to it. It seemed a little too fast for a stock honda.

My friends Dad owned a Nissan pickup. Late 80's model. The key to his truck started both of our z cars right up. Must be a Nissan glitch I guess.

When you start looking for grocery getters then your Z is in trouble. Your wife will get pregnant and tell you to sell the sports car. :classic:

That file must have issues. I imported it into Flash MX to convert it and compress it. The sound is there but no video shows when it is imported.

I have no idea. I found it on some bikini site a long time ago.

The one with all the girls and the z car. I posted that image as a wallpaper on here a long time ago. The file listed shows the image before I put the fade effect on the car. I have had people claim my work as their own before so it is nothing new.

Not to mention that you're using my enjoy the ride image on your homepage. Fair is fair.

I can ship anyone who wants one -$7.24 total. I dont want to violate Mike's rule though by marketing products without his permission. These are two others I did but took them down early since I got the Ebay notice. After I modify all of them again will repost them. Orange Z 280 Z Design

I would change it to something like this.
