S30Z Bushido

I cannot start a new topic in the parts for sale area

extremely bad ass. get some video of this thing in action!!

excellent example of an S30. I haven't posted on HybridZ in ages, but I had to let you know what an awesome job you've done. It makes me proud that the logo I designed for HybridZ is worn on your car.

these are UK model cars. the UK 260Z is differently equipped than a US market 260Z. and if im not mistaken, the UK never recieved the 280Z.

i bet the offset is crap...

keep us posted, im very interested in seeing the final setup.

best wheels ever to be fitted to a s130. the exhaust manifold is sexy too.

looking great man, im glad you're still working on this project. a few months ago i went over to classiczcars to see if you had any updates in your photo album and there werent any new pics so i thought maybe the project was defunkt. anyways good to see progress! keep it up

that looks terrible. the lines dont flow at all...

i photoshopped the pic that 280zforce posted. It has stock zenki taillights. you can see more of the car here though... http://zhp.satokikaku.com/

im pretty sure you could have gotten away with a roll and a bit of a pull.... i deinfetly would have changed tire sizes before i went as far as cutting my fenders. those wheels with zg's are going to be way sunken, if you do go that route at least get some spacers to try and push them out a bit... also, dont forget to weld the fender where you cut it.

ehhh. looks fat too me. too heavy looking.

heres a photoshop that i did of the rear diffuser of a R34 GTR on my car if anyone is interested.

heres a grill i made for my 76 about almost 2 years ago, it's all stainless and aluminum, and still looks as good as the day i made it. excuse the crappy pics: before paint: i was thinking about maybe making a few and selling them, if there is interest that is. it is for a 280z but will fit 240's too, the thing is it takes a little tinkering to get it to clear the hood when you open it because of the flush look, but it's not difficult to make work.

Hugh, great news with the S30 SR20 plans. I'm always on freshalloy and your silver 180 was awesome, I'm sure the 240z will be even better, are you planning on just using the 240sx as a daily driver and keeping it stock or are you planning to modify it also?

i havent driven it because i moved to new york city, and the car is at my dad's place in south florida, the door handles were shaved in photoshop. haha

1989 was the crossover year from z31 to z32, thats why i got mixed up... i wonder what it would take to get an R230 in an S30... yeahm the blue z is mine, i havent driven it in months, i miss it so much.

This is actually a R200 LSD out of a 89 300ZXT oh, i thought the Z32 used an r230... is your diff from a Z31 or Z32?

nice find. i need to get a r230 on my car also...

i think thats taking weight reduction a little too far... you going solid axle?

looks clean, i LOVE the paint color. i think it's bayside blue TV2? some pics of the car when it's finished would be nice.

better watch otu what you photoshop... the owner of that pic might sue you... pfffft.

thanks for the compliments, thats what i want to do after college, automotive design...

whats the width and offset on those?

i think the general idea of this car is in the right place, but it could definetly use a cleaning up. the wheels are hideous, like everyone else has said, and in my opinion there are just too many lines everywhere, so i did a photoshop of what i would have done with this car. opinions are welcome, let me know what you think. second one down is my rendition. i got rid of the bulkyness in the front and rear bumpers, molded all the lines, cleaned up the side vent, replaced the tacked-on looking square sideskirt with a molded, more flowing shaped one, modified the spoiler a bit, shaved the door handles and gas door, as well as adding a Ferrari 250 GTO inspired vent for the rear fender, and changed the wheels to an 18in work equip 01, which are still big, but looks more fitting than 20inchers...
