Sr-FairladyZ

OH, well there you go. Now that looks much better. Hey I wonder whats under the hood with all that room? Maybe a day bed? hehe

Yes sir, it was a joke btw..notice the "+ an sr20"

Lower? I thought it was on jack stands in the picture.. Damn that thing is lifted, and its totally ruining it for me.

Damn, first Chevy small blocks, now Ford Taurus headlights? The poor Z car - I love you just the way you are,... + an sr20

What happened? I remember this car, it was on ebay a while back. I saved a few pics to scope out my flares.

Oo, i was right. Do i win a prize? lol btw..seen this?

Looks like a copy of the devil Z I've seen in the Wangan Midnight comic strip. Not that there is anything wrong with that!

I second that. Hey alex, My car is painted just buttoning up the loose ends. Wha?! your selling the SR240Z?? why may i ask? (insert very good answer here)

Damn this is rather depressing, Being in the northeast the best i could find was a 71 Z with 100K miles with some typical rust but none the less a solid Z for $2600. It was a new mexico car (paint burnt down to the metal in some areas) up untill 2003 when i bought it in NJ with the sole intent of an SR-swap. I Think I liked mostly that it was automatic so i knew the unibody wasnt bashed on with shifting abuse for 36 years. Converted it to stick for like $60 in parts.

Hell, if you have the rooms and your neighbors dont mind the smell, hehe

Yea, that was some nice SR-Z. Think he got upwards of $20K for it. I dont think mine will ever be worth that much , Nor do i see myself selling it anytime soon.

hmm, picture garbage cans laying down with a layer of rubber bands wrapped around them. Thats about the size j/k. 10's in the rear and 8.5's or 9's up front i would think. Its a lot to do with offset aswell since you want the outter lip to fill but not rub, and you dont want your inner lip to rub your suspension or brakes. To spec out the size you need you have to measure from your hub mounting pad to your desired outboard flange or where you want your wheel to end on the outter side of the fender. Offset is measured by subtracting the backspace from your centerline of the rim. Search around for wheel spacing caculators and such, since having the wheel fill the flare propperly is what really 'makes' the flare look good and create functionality. good luck, and your flare fab looks super sick- cant wait to see it finished.

...And the swap would have worked if it werent for you mangey kids!

I agree, The skinniest your rears should be with ZG flares is 8.5 with a moderatly - offset like -19 to -30. I have 8.5's -30mm offset in the rear with 225/50's and they fit really nice. Dont make the mistake of running ZG flares with 7'' rims and spacers and all that jazz, I've been there and your never satisfied, thats if you dont loose a rim on the expressway first.

Yes, 245 is pushing it on 7''. Your sidewalls are going to be like muffin tops. Not the nicest approach visually. Aspech when the in thing is stretching smaller width tires on garbage can width wheels.

Credit card was hit today for $7.00 Good deal! Hope to get the hardware for the weekend. It's all coming together now

Welp, I tried Emailing and that didnt work. So i called them, I think it was Wednesday of last week and spoke with Phil. He took my credit and shipping info and said it would only be $5+ shipping. But my credit card has still not yet been charged and still no hardware in the mail yet. I'm going to call them tomorrow if i still dont have anything. -Thanks a lot for the follow up though!

I'm not so worried about the scratching and or cracking that would be caused by very long term use. My main concern is the day to day moisture intrapment. Do these easly collect condensation and or fog up? Because THAT is something i cannot live with. I have had my MSA headlight covers in my closet for like 2 years, waiting for my body to be restored and the day has finaly come. My Z is painted and ready. But NOW I CANT FIND MY MOUNTING HARDWARE!! UGH! BuZy can you help me??

Hey guys, I used to use this board around 2003 when i started my Z project. Since then i forgot my s/n and p/w haha. I was happy to see some folks in my tri state area. Last time i was on this place was full of aussies (not that there is anything wrong with aussies - i love'em!) Team Nissan, Congrats on your strut removal and congrats that your garage is still standing . What project are you starting and where in NJ are you? I'm on staten island. I have a 71 with a 98 SR20 swap. She should be hitting the booth this weekend, I hope.
