slownrusty Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Started building the white car when: 1) There was no such thing as a 350Z 2) Biggie Smalls was still enjoying the success of his FIRST album 3) Mentioning Twitter, Facebook, Texting, Blackberrys, MP3s and the I-Phones might put you in a mental institute But its coming along and I still have more work to do on it...it really is my "Christine" or "Eleanor"...and will never end. Bought the silver car this Spring to remind what it was to drive a nice Turbo 280ZX... So here they are together, the white car was driven today for the first time in 3 or 4 months...I cannot remember. Yasin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayzrocket Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Hey, are those RB-r's on the white one the 17x7.5/8.5's, and also if you would share your tire sizes? Any spacers? I am trying to get the best info I can for my zx, not necessarily the same style but what will fit with the factory suspention set up. Maybe a little info on that air dam as well. lol. Thanks, J.

slownrusty Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 Thanks guys! Its coming along...s-l-o-w-l-y! Hey, are those RB-r's on the white one the 17x7.5/8.5's, and also if you would share your tire sizes? Any spacers? I am trying to get the best info I can for my zx, not necessarily the same style but what will fit with the factory suspention set up. Maybe a little info on that air dam as well. lol.Thanks, J. WOW!!! ok thats it i want to paint my 280zx WHITE!! that looks great! May i ask what tires an size wheels those are that are on the white S130? To answer your questions: - The wheels are 17 x 9.5" all the way around. - No spacers - 275/40 Rear - 245/45 Front - Suspension is a full coilovers front and rear which I had to re-do to fit the dang wheels! 9.5" wheels do not fit all that well on the ZX unless they are around a -25mm offset. These are -19mm which is all that is available. - Front Air Dam was purchased many years ago by a Japanese Body Kit Manufacturer that is now defunct.

jhaag Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 What a beautiful pair of ZXs! Wish I'd been there when you took the white one out for a spin! John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S30TRBO Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Looking awesome as always Yasin! Nice pair you have Have you had the current wheels on the white ZXT for a while? I remember the ones on the silver one that were on the white one last time I seen it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Every day I like the 280ZX more and more! I just jumped about 365 days ahead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abes Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Please don't take this the wrong way, i've been following you build for a while and admired the engine side of it but the car, meh... NOW, These pictures of the white car with those wheels......Definitely in my top two zx's of all time. It is very hard to find a zx with a bad ass stance. Not ricey Not ghetto, Just plain ole bad ass. I've owed about 7 zx's and have never put wheels on any of them because it's hard to find a nice set w/o spending thousands. You have just conquered it. GREAT JOB.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayolives Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Yasin, The white car is one of my favorite zx builds. And to all those poeple who don't spread the love for the zx car, take a close look at this one. Nice job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 My sentiments exactly! I'll add "inspiring" Not normally a big fan of the ZX but WOW!!! The white car is awesome!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stationwagonguy Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 DAMN the white car looks good. Is that turbo stripe down near the rocker factory? I can't remember ever seeing one before (or maybe I didn't notice it, it's quite dramatic/good looking against the white). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
