sweet jesus. rb26 and tubbed (by the looks of it). win!

16x8 0 offset will not need flares.

your engine sounds like a gun. get us a video once its all run in and sorted!

my rears - ssr formula mesh 15x9.5 -33 my fronts - hayashi streets 15x9.5 -19

im in the same boat as the op only im located in australia. you guys in the US have all the good z parts. to the OP when you find a solution keep us updated. As in aust we can find coilovers for any car very cheaply. if only tein made bolt in coilovers for the z....

ill grab some better pics of the sp1r for you. in other news ive found an l28et which im going to purchase. - not that fascinating to you americans, but its a big deal to me as we never received the l28et in australia. to put it into perspective, its rarer than rb25/26 for us aussies, as every 2nd sports car here is either sr20 or rb powered. i guess you guys would rather an sr or rb powered z. ill leave with a pic of my car that was taken by some guy at the meet mentioned earlier.

haha the only rb id put in this would be a 26. but here in australia you see skylines/silvias everywhere and id rather keep it period correct. id love to have an l28et! u americans can pick them up so cheap, lucky bastards! still got no idea what im going to do about engine mods.

not at the moment. ill take some and post them for you haha i was never a fan of the mud flaps. and if i kept them on, it hides the stance from the rear. and we cant have that! Thanks for the kind words guys

hi guys thought id make a build thread over here. ok sold my previous car 03 honda dc5r. minor mods: exhaust injen cai tein ha coilovers 17x9 +18 regamasters evo x2 / marquis promoda x2 then was surfing the net one day and i dno how i saw pics of austin hokes car. i was instantly in love and knew i had to have one. after toying the ideas of getting an s13/14/15s , skylines/gtrs i said **** it and this happened. ....................... ....................... in comes the 1973 datsun 240z. l24 su carbs lowered springs skyline gearbox some front lip ive only seen for sale in australia bre rear wing drove the car like that for around 8 months. around that time i bought a couple things hayashi streets 15x9.5 -19 stretched 195/55/15 ssr sp1r 15x8.5 +2 225/45/15 toyo t1s then car got put in for a respray. back to bare metal, check for rust/fixed minor. i got very lucky that what appeared to be rust under the paint was actually bog! (score!) **** having rust. got zg flares put on and rear wing painted black. bam! by this time i already had something on their way from japan for the rears. 15x9.5 -33 ssr formula mesh they arrived last friday. had 205/60/15 pirelli p6s mounted on saturday morning. then sunday morning went to a massive meet which was held in sydney. my front flares look ****, guy i bought them off cut too much out (i didnt think too much of it at the time). so ive got another set coming from japan that should arrive this week to replace them. couple pics of the other cars at the meet (fonzy one of my favourite cars in the world)
