Gav Is the car slightly modified? If so, go with your Sparco's. If the car is stock then puffin' up the stock seats. We did it in the red Z and we don't slide around, have lots of support and they still have the stockish look. We just (obviously) modified the colors. Just my .02 cents Vicky

Hi Chris! That's how faded our seat-belts are, they're gray which actually matches the dash and the other grays in the car. I really think red would look nice or maybe even a wine color to match the carpet. Scott will have the final say..........his car...........his "other woman"LOL Vicky

mperdue Please tell me that's not you or any of your relatives in your avatar! :tapemouth Vicky

Hi guys I need to replace the gray seat-belts in the '77 280Z. Of course they MUST be red! Did Datsun ever have red seat-belts in any of their early Z's. If not, do you think that dyeing is an option? If they are available should I give Mid-West Z a call? Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated:classic: Vicky

The '77 280Z has "Z Rush" and the '72 240Z has "Itsa 72Z". I wanted "InZane" for the red Z but the State of Florida has cracked down on what they deem as offensive plates.....wha??? Some other cool plates... Wa Wa Zit - I saw this on a Z06 Corvette X TA Z - Was on a Z28 Camaro Fazt Z Zweet Zpeed Just about anything that has an "S" you can use for a "Z" Vicky

Me too Stephen. My friends and I were younger and stupider also, plus they were trying to be cool and show how they could shift without the clutch depressed. This was way back in the 70's. Vicky

What is the GTO body kit? Is it fiberglass? Most insurance companys jack up the price on a glass car no matter who you go with. Got any pictures of your Z Tomohawk? Vicky

You forgot air-conditioned and carpeted floors Vicky

Yes, I know about the push start with a manual car. But I'm confused on the "Clutch Disengage". Is that like what some of my friends used to do when they shifted the car without pushing the clutch in? Vicky

Hagerty is cheap because they are a "Specialty" insurance comapny. They assume that people with show/rare/high-end exotics don't drive their autos in the same manner as they would their everyday beater. People with these type of vehicles tend to be more cautious when driving, making extra sure nothing happens to their car. Vicky

Anyone who's been in the service is eligable for coverage from USAA. Our 2 Z's and car hauler are covered through Hagerty. My 4-Runner is with USAA (Dad was in the Air Force). The 454 Dually and Scott's S-10 are with Geico. All I do is work to pay car insurance Vicky

I have in many a manual cars :stupid: It just lurches forward. But I don't think the car would ever actually start..........would it? I've never got that far, as I've always freaked out and said to myself, what an azz I amLOL Vicky

Now that's to much IMO. The car needs to be a little more correct to even start at that price. It's a very nice Z but $9,000, I think not. We'll have to see what he finally gets. Maybe he is starting high (to say the least) so he can accept a lower bid:cross-eye Vicky

We have the G-Tech mounted on the dash. That thing is awesome! (Got Mr. K's signature on the outside of the glove-box....in red!) Vicky

........and those would be some nice headlights flopping around in the breezeLOL (sorry, I just had to say that) Vicky

MSA is "People's Choice" no points are given, just a good, fun all 'round show. The Z Car Convention is a points show and is actually quite serious as far as the records/rules of the ZCCA. Vicky

More like "Diss". They make no mention (thank God) of that car being a Factory Restored car, so technically they can restore it as original as "They" think, but we know better. I really don't think they are asking too much. Rule of thumb, start high, some fool just might bite. Pretty nice little Z. Vicky

True. Many tints are illegal in some states. We have Limo tint on the 77. The car is "grandfathered in" becasue back in the seventies there were no restrictions on tints in Florida. The down side is at night, the reflections inside the cabin can obstuct your view, but we all know how dim our dash lights areLOL The new fad here is candy tints. The ricers just keep making their cars more tacky IMO :sick: Vicky

That's the car they need to start with......but wait, there's no improvements to that design!!!! Vicky

Bummer. Better at home than on the track in front of everyone, no? Cuong or anybody, what does "RB26" stand for? Does it have some sort of translation like our L24, L26 or L28? Vicky

I have to first like the style/lines of the car before any graphics, wheels and what not are added. Start with an S30, then we'll talk. All you guys have great talent, however. Vicky

Nice rim-shot TomohawkLOL The answer is......... The "1958 Around Australia Mobilgas Trial", a tortuous Pro-Rally tour of which few cars even finished. This was the start of Mr. K's maverick reputation with Nissan. Vicky

Anyone have the answer to the above question yet? Vicky P.S. Datsun won this race too

I could cheat and go look at zhome but I'm going to guess and say.......1977 280Z? Vicky

There is no Z in the Japanese alphabet. I read somewhere that they wanted something unique. They chose "Z" because "nothing comes after Z in the english alphabet". I'm not sure if this is correct, but I did read this somewhere. Am I right? Vicky
