Very cool. If any of you are interested in uploading all your images after the show, I can make a gallery area for it. Just let me know. Would like to see the images! Mike

Funny how things are turning around though. There once was a time that people searched far and wide to find the cheapest deal. Now people seem to be searching far and wide to find the best quality. There are good products that come out of China. Just reach into your pocket and look at your mobile phone. Manufacturers can no longer build disposable crap. I have a feeling the new generations will shift things back. Don't blame government, blame the consumer.

Yuck! They should have at least put in one of those Retro Sound radios.. or I guess installing nothing in that area leaves it open for new owner to install whatever they want. I don't like that 3-dial A/C control panel at all.. it looks unfinished.

I didn't read the description, but, did they explain the reason for the three dials where the radio should be located? It doesn't seem that Nissan would make that kind of modification..

Kats, these concerns aren't just limited to cars and parts. Just look at household appliances, home construction materials, etc, etc.. Who do we blame? The manufacturer, or the majority of consumers who wants to buy these things for the cheapest price? In my old age, I'm starting to focus more on quality/workmanship of well made (and typically expensive) products. It's a lot easier to appreciate...

Nevermind, I found it... Strange error... I'm looking into it.

Uh oh... can you guys share the link of the page you're trying to access?

Get the BRE cover. I have it and the fit is wonderful for inside my garage. Mike

Gorgeous!!

Hi @jonathanrussell, yeah I compared to Panasports, Rota, and Konig's. The VTO wheels are very nice option at a medium price point. No real complaints from the shop on mount/balance. From what I can tell, the wheels looked like they balanced up just fine with a minimal amount of weights.

Hi Jay, glad you found the site. Good luck with the sale of your roadster! Mike

Woot! My yellow 240z was recently featured in the VTO Wheels Customer Spotlight! I was wondering why Alex wanted me to take some photos of the car.. Anyone notice the cat posing for the photo? His name is Mr Banks and will sign autographs. ? Thanks @VTOwheels Mike PS: One correction, I am running Tokico Illumina adjustable struts (it says I am running stock struts). p{ margin:10px 0; padding:0; } table{ border-collapse:collapse; } h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6{ display:block;

Mike came to VTO Wheels because he knew our fitment and customer service is the best in the industry. The VTO Classic 8 GTR 16"x7" wheels gives Mike's Z car a stylish finish, while the deeper lip gives a much more desirable and understated aggressive look. This yellow beauty is sitting on stock struts with Tokico springs that lower the car 1 inch. The VTO's are 0mm offset and wrapped in 205/55-16 BFG G-Force Sport 2 sticky rubber. No rubbing issues are reported, and the ride is said to be smooth and free of vibration. Thank you for your support, and please let VTO help you find the perfect fit for your next project, whatever the year, make, or model may be. Don't know what offset or bolt pattern to run? With us fitment doesn't have to be a guess! We will send you a wheel to test your fitment so you know that when you place an order, the fit will be perfect.

Check out what I just found in my files. This was the original order form that was sent to me from the Franklin Mint. I used one of these to order my model. I have two copies of this set and am willing to send it to the new owner of the Z purchased on BaT (if you don't already have a copy). Just send me a PM.

Ok sending you my address in PM. Thank you!! Mike

And took some more photos...

In that same box I found my original AM/FM radio.

Update, I found my original door and engine plates in a random box. I did start another post to discuss replacements below. Glad I found these before I purchased new ones. Here's the post I created about buying and creating new plates:

Absolutely, I have no idea why I put them in such a random location! It must have made sense at the time, I'm sure. @Patcon, sure I could use them. Do you advise rivets over screws? Not sure if screws would clear the door, though.
