you mean 250kts right? Don't worry I'll hold off reporting you for a ride! hahaha On a side note, how do you like the living conditions of the corporate world? Have you done part 121 ops? Would you consider it more competitive for corporate slots?

Easy there... I dig it. The VQ powerplant is a great swap, and I'm a fan of the newer style dash boards into z cars as well. The body work is kinda border line, but certainly nothing calling for disgust. But to each his own I suppose. I believe he is a member on these boards though.

Ever made your way to KBLI? I know there aren't a whole lot of those planes gracing the skies, and I've seen one fairly regularly on the ramp here. (I work across the ramp for Allegiant)

different for sure. Going to take some adjustment. But excited for new beginings!

How do you tell if there is a pilot at your party? he'll tell you Personally just a Private ticket holder myself. Going back to school this summer to continue towards a commercial lisence and never ending debt... My dad is a commercial pilot and have grown up traveling and around aircraft my whole life. I actually still keep a current log book of all my flights. My mom started it for me at 3 weeks old, and I continued it when I was 8 or 9. I'm pretty proud of it. Kind of interesting to go back through it and see all the places I've supposedly been, but can't remember

I really like the conversions. That red one doesn't really do it for me either though. Some extremely well done versions I've seen though.

ran across this as well.. http://www.classicdatsun.com/new/240_misc-parts.html

I usually add a few keywords like 240, 260, 280z, datsun, nissan, and then whatever pertains to the item i'm listing. The page long keywords are stupid. Keep flagging!

hahaha I love it! I've always called the big wings park benches, and now someone took it literally LOL

I used a NAPA Gunmetal wheel rattle can paint on mine. Might be close

Now this is a tough decision. The sparrow tail is growing on me more and more, but this is a fantastic deal too

Do you have the same wheels on your 280z? Any pictures of it? I'm pretty certain I'll be going with these rims now (513 design) and zg flares. Just deciding on a street tire size that will fill up the flares.

I'm going to chime in quickly, and visit something that was said earlier in the thread. I'd like to just point out that I think the tapered end to airliners actually doesn't have much to do with aerodynamics. Although it's helps for sure, the bigger reason is to allow pilots to take off at a higher angle of attack. Would be difficult to pull the nose up if the tail was as wide as the rest of the fuselage.

lol just teasin'!

wow 255 on an 8" rim is impressive. Looks great. I wonder how something like a 235 all around would look.

Love the stance! what size tires?

HAHAHA Gotta love the Muppets

^yup. And most abundant element is hydrogen.

I dunno... Enough things break on my car there's bound to be a system controlling it:wink:

Fantastic pics! I was just a week too late to see it. Though I wouldn't have had time anyway. Maybe next year.

maybe not so much... Falcon racing wheels? Look like watts. Either way just had a good laugh. Wonder when the LHD conversion was done? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Datsun-Z-Series-280-Z-75-Fair-Lady-Z_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem414cba50e2QQitemZ280460153058QQptZUSQ5fCarsQ5fTrucks

Definitely fab up metal and weld if you have the means to do so.' I ended up filling the indents in the rear panel with body filler. I wish I had welded but had no access to a welder or anyone who could do it for me apart from taking it to a shop. Although I would do it differently If i had the means to again, I'm happy with how it turned out, and havn't had any cracking or problems with it after 4 years.

Super clean Silvia though. And I think the grey market thing to do is to register those as a 240sx. So somewhat correct

I think Jon's intent wasn't so much towards you, but anyone who might be searching this thread in the future; preventing mis-information for the people who like to speed read threads, and just pick up random sentences here and there. Sounds like you've got your information and a plan. I've searched the same topic and I've gathered the same conclusion. Shouldn't be a problem for your set up far as I can tell. Do work! haha
