  1. I`m hoping board admins will create a wallpaper/artwork section soon. So I can make all kinds of Z related artwork for HybridZ members. Not just 240Z but all years... It is impossible with my work schedule to make individual artwork for you guys. Sorry... Eric
  2. I remember the Bluestreak 280ZX. I skipped lunch today after I started doodling this. Here`s the Redstreak 240Z by yours truly! Enjoy... Eric
  3. I think BRG is one of those colors that will look nice on almost any sports car. ERIC
  4. Thanks guys. Thanks to the nice reference picture by death69. Davy, do whatever you want to do with it. Maybe it`s time you guys should create a wallpapers area.I could provide you with about 15 wallpapers. ERIC
  5. Thanks guys...here`s a 800x600 for you. and forgive the lame looking Datsun script. I was too tired and too lazy to make 6 more cars;-) Enjoy... ERIC
  6. Here`s some more colors without black hood. Some of them stock or normal and some....quite unusual:-D :-D Even more unusual colors will follow in the near future. ERIC
  7. Dear Mr dscott@shouri I know that much. And I know this is what you do for a living. But since you never replied to my PM and e-mail from a few weeks ago I`ll have to find out about these "shops" myself. So: Does anybody else know any shops in Japan? All help is much appreciated. ERIC
  8. Back to the headlight covers. I would like a set please... And here`s a question: Whenever I need a part for my car I go to MSA. What do people in Japan do? Where do they go? Does anyone know?... ERIC
  9. My daily driver is a `98 Z28 Camaro...It`s arctic white with glossy black roof. I`d say go with glossy black against arctic white. ERIC
  10. I don`t know where the bodyshop got the paint from. The reason why the bodyshop charged me so much was installation of fender flares and air dam, removal of interior and carpet(that was a pain in the ass) new floor boards and different color hood:idea: There are two shades of red available for 350Z I think. Mine is the slightly darker one. ERIC
  11. Try this one. 2006 Nissan Dark red. I saw it on a 350Z and decided to paint my car that color. Dealership provided me with a paint sample for about $35. Got the car painted inside&out and replaced the floor boards for about $3500 The one on the far left...The other red car belongs to 280Z Force Justin and it`s a bit lighter compared to my car. Same as my sig. ERIC
  12. Happy new year from all of us here at JADA TOYS to all of you Car Nuts!!!!!!!! :smile: We wish you an accident free happy new year with great deals on car parts and performance mods! Have a great 2007!!!!!! :smile: :smile: ERIC
  13. Really??? I didn`t know, yet I`m not surprised...
  14. I got my `73 for $1600 from my best friend in Feb 06.It was in running condition, but not driven since 1986. I spent over $14K as of October 06 Here`s before pictures: Here`s how it looks like now: She`s worth every penny!.. All I need now is the BRE or 432 wing and the JDM old school headlight covers. ERIC
  15. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/240z-FLAMES-KAMINARY-KIT-CUSTOM-BOX-CUSTOM-DASH-TAIL_W0QQitemZ250068553550QQihZ015QQcategoryZ6187QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem This is just my opinion....I know there must be people out there who find this car "tastefully customized", I`m not one of them. I think this poor car is butchered. If only they spent the money on the drive train. Such a shame. The owner wants the car out of his property. He wants to get rid of it. So here`s your chance. At least the glass looks alright... ERIC
  16. Check this out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1973-DATSUN-510-BRE-SSS-RARE-RACER-REPLICA_W0QQitemZ110073419235QQihZ001QQcategoryZ6188QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Looks great but sounds a little too affordable... Do you think there`s something wrong with it?
  17. Welcome you lucky #@%!* No but really, very nice deal. I got my `73 Z for a $1000 from my best friend I actually paid him another $600 just to make him happy. Nice deal! ERIC
  18. I`ll definetely check that out. And thanks for all the info. So, basically, this is about a $80K project. I was guessing it would cost about $35-$40K including the shell. Thanks. ERIC
  19. Well, whatever they used in those cars must have been manufactured before`74. Here`s a couple of questions: What year was the BRE car built? Has it been upgraded anytime before the release of 260Z? I want to build an "exact" replica of the car.The body and the paint is the easy part. My concern is how the interior and especially the engine looked like. Also, was the car a 4 speed or 5 speed? what were the gears? It`s not easy to find reliable information. Brock Enterprizes now belongs to Nissan and they are not very helpful. Again, any help will be appreciated. Thanks guys. ERIC
  20. Thanks for nice words. Any manufacturers interested in body kit ideas? Bartman. The flip nose Z looks very neat. I like it. ERIC
  21. Thanks for the nice words. Just to make one thing clear: I don`t consider myself a "photo wizard". When i design something new, I make sketches of it. And then I usually use illustrator and photoshop to turn it into a decent looking rendering. As for fellow Z guys asking for mockups: PM me and we`ll talk. ERIC
  22. Max. Actually my biggest inspiration was Peugeot 205 T16. Another car is Ford Escort RS Cosworth. As for the nose, Jaguar F Type prototype was one of my inspirations. The shape of the front fenders are very much like that of Ferrari F-40`s. Here`s a question: Has anybody ever built a "flip-nose" S30?. I`d like to see that. Thanks. ERIC
  23. Here`s a widebody idea I started working on. To be honest, I wouldn`t go "this far" with my car. It`s too much for my taste but I know that some of you like these body kits so here. Please, if you somehow like it and want to use it, let me know first. Thank you. ERIC
  24. Here`s a picture of the side skirt/air dam combo-again- for those of you who haven`t seen it before.I posted it here a few days ago. I`ll make another one when I have some free time for comparison.. ERIC
