That weight calculation was an aproximate value including heater and instruments. Which would add up to over 40 lbs. I would suggest that you stick to making parts that are not currently manufactured...hoods, hatches tail light panels and ZG flares out of CF are already available through several sources. R

PDK has just completed and installation of their fiberglass dash with heater controls etc. So it can be done, however the dash is a RACE PART and requires a large amount of fabrication in order for it to work for this application. Ron Advisor to PDK Fabrication.com

Well, I have 2 sets now. These are a spare set. The first set is beadblasted with a polished lip. This set is epoxy painted centers with a polished lip. Definately a Rare Find!! -

Les Cannaday is definately the way to go. He is one of 3 or 4 dealers in the USA. The 15's will work better on your car. Les is a great friend of mine and I have gone to pick up Panasports from Panasport with him...the difference between the racing wheels and the street wheels is weight, the racing wheels are much lighter....and they are stamped for Racing Only.

It is possible to order the Video on line for $24.00, I guess I should say something since they used my car for the interviews and there is a min or two with my BRE replica. The show needs some work and the twins know about it.

Hmm, I dont know...I was at a friends shop today, they were working on the Monster Garage escalade ultimate tailgate mobile. I got a chance to look at it...and well it is a little rough. The paint is flawless...the interior needed some help. My buddy was working on it for the third time, changing out the hydro's that opened the doors for an electronic solution to make it work better.

Hello all, the BRE Z filmed in this episode was my car filmed at Nissan about 3 months ago. With all the time they spent with John Morton and Trevor Harris, well I am surprized that they didnt use as much footage as I thought they could have. Les, helped me bring my car up to nissan, and they slapped him in the chair and interviewed him, not a planned event, but they used quite a bit of his footage. I would agree that the Turbo Twins didn't really know what to do, but they were given the parts to make this work, MSA gave them most of the stuff used on these cars. They were looking for tripples, but it seems that no one gives that stuff away Ron
