@tube80z thanks for all that info! I decided on 1” front MC and 7/8” rear, I’ll decide how much I like it but I think it will feel nice! I actually just finished my setup today, I just need to attach the pedal to the MCs now! I’ll post pics of my setup, I’m happy with it so far and I’m hoping I got the clearances all correct

I'd say so, like night and day! 10 months is dang long, why did it take so long?

Hey man, congrats on the retirement from the USMC! And you're only 23 minutes from Pike's Peak, rock on!

Dang look at that! It looks very clean! I really like your cam cover, subtle and stylish! The choice of just black and silver overall looks really good!

Both concepts (one being the concept of drag while the fluid is being pushed through. The other being the concept that there isn't much drag in the lines as the fluid doesn't move enough.) make sense that either could be correct. I'll test it out as I already bent them all into place without focusing on a center point and I'll share my own personal results!

That suspension setup is dang sick!! I'm looking forward to seeing this all done!

Have you already installed the ZXT engine?

I just tried again on my work computer, so different computer and no firewall or anything. Still having the same issue. Is anyone else having this problem?

Does anyone know if the albums are down today? I've been trying to upload all day but to no avail. They upload then when I click to "Submit All Images" it goes to a blank screen and that's it. Any ideas?

Well thank you for all the service you give our country, I'm grateful for everything you and the rest of the armed forces do out there. I think people forget how much they owe the military and what it really means to have freedom in our country. Thanks for doing the world's toughest job! I guess keep me updated on how it goes and be safe in the middle east!

hmm interesting. I bought some wide ZG flares (The standard flares, but wider) off of ebay a while back and fit them to my Z myself just by laying them on, no fitment issues. Maybe the key word here might be *Perfectly* fitting haha.

No worries, it makes sense in any other application that this wouldn't be a good idea to do. Interesting, you would think the pressure would be uniform throughout the plumbing regardless, but that is really good insight! I will probably have to run these lines for a bit and buy a new bit of brake line soon so I will keep a careful eye on that happening!

interesting! I am curious if Fiberglass Mafia is JPN Garage rebranded? I am also curious is EZ Splitters is part of that umbrella. Does your friend like the fitment?

@baby_Carlton this guy just used them!

Does anyone know if Fiberglass Mafia is JPN Garage just rebranded? Also, is EZ Splitters under that umbrella as well? I've seen the same products on all 3 sites so I'm curious.

https://ezsplitters.com/product/datsun-s30-240z-260z-280z-z-speed-widebody-fender-flares/ Here is another brand selling them for $50 cheaper, they also have the exact same product images ha.

@calZ actually on review those are different flares than what I'm asking about, but good to see somebody has had a positive experience with their products!

@calZ I just saw that thread on the body kit forum ha! I searched on google but it didn't pull that up, thanks for sharing that! @Bartman that looks pretty slick! post up pics when you're done!

Thanks mate! Walker, are you in the military?

Hey all, I haven't found an answer to this question in my searching. I just finished my setup and I've done the brake lines for the most part. Before I try taking on the road I wanted to verify it was correct. I removed the factory splitter/biaser thing that is in the engine bay (I believe it's the proportioning valve that adjusts the amount of pressure to the front/back?) and ran the lines as such: both front lines meet at a T and from there go directly to the MC. The back lines are pretty much the same. Does that sound right? Does anyone keep the PV for any reason? It seems to me that it is obsolete now but I just wanted to make sure. Thanks in advance!

Looking forward to it all! I'm going to try and get my thread updated this month, I have lots of progress to report on!

Hey all, After JPN garage went down I've had a hard time finding vendors for this style of flare, I just wanted to start a quick thread documenting some locations if anyone knows who else might sell them. Also, does anyone have info on Fiberglass Mafia? I haven't heard of them before but their pics look good. http://www.fiberglassmafia.com/store/p11/S30Zspeed.html

Let me know how they fit! I've been finding a few of those as well and was curious. I also am having a hard time finding a lot of the different flare options I could find 2 years ago, it seems people aren't selling as many?

I never replied, thanks for the info! I'm going to have to download that and learn how to use it when I get my Z running! Awesome!

Man! That is one of those things that if I tried doing it, it would stop the progress of my car indefinitely ha. Great job!
