  1. Well... no. Sorry if I was misleading...I removed all the chrome from the body of the car. Even though I do like the polished lip I think the entire wheel would look good powder coated. I'm wondering if it wouldn't be better to have them anodized, though.
  2. I've removed all the chrome from my car... I'm not too into it, either.
  3. I ordered the classic style with black anodized centers. I will be running VB flares (which are spec'd 3.5" in the rear and 2.5" in the front). If I'm doing my math correctly a 5-3/4" bs'ing gives me a -6.35 offset in the rear. The rear tires are 315/35/17's. They're gonna be WIDE. I have that one saved as a favorite! lol
  4. Resurrecting this from the dead a bit... When I contacted CCW John recommended 17x11 rear with 5-3/4 backspacing. Everyone seems to be mentioning 5" backspacing. I'm wondering (with coilovers) if I'll have clearance issues. Since I don't have much experience with wheels on the 240 I'm kinda trusting John (@ CCW) and his knowledge. Anyone running 5-3/4?
  5. That thing was wicked! I don't even want to imagine the money put into that beast!
  6. Nope... I accepted my honorable discharge in 2002. I was caught up in the stop loss and was kinda ready to move on to other things.
  7. JaysZ, I just got off the phone with CCW. Their customer service was awesome. They sell tires, too, and offer them at the Tire Rack price (+ mounting and balancing free). If you have specific questions regarding backspacing feel free to give them a call... John helped me quite a bit.
  8. Yes... it was... and many of those children turned their parents over to the gestapo for uttering anything anti-nazi. But still... we can have our fun!
  9. I've heard that as well (and I think it's been brought up on Hybrid, too). If this is true then it would also work on an RB26 running a GTS-T tranny.
  10. Speaking of Star Wars... I was watching the Simpsons last night and it was the Homer Roast episode. When Monty Burns got up to say his part they played a small bit of the Imperial March song. I was dying!
  11. Lol! (hellbound I guess). The dark side made him join the HJ!
  12. Or... we can pick him up. Nellis ain't that hard to find!
  13. OMG! Wonder what type of injuries that guy recieved. Makes me cringe!
  14. All I can ever find for the 240Z is the 86-1811 and 86-1812 shocks. Are the 8610's a special order item? I see the 8610-1436/1437 Race versions in the Koni catalog, but according to JohnC's reply to this post... ... I think I'm barking up the wrong tree. No wonder I couldn't find them:
  15. I don't have them on yet. I need to put my order in for the Modern Motorsports front hubs. I'll be making my own caliper brackets after that. Might be a few months off.
  16. You would think that there would be pics of the engine... since that's the cars major selling point. Would definately go over that puppy with a fine toothed comb. Jamie's got the smarts to make the right call.
  17. My wife's birthday is in August, too... hmmm. We're not big partiers, though (well... not since I left the AF), but I'm sure we can all have a good time.
  18. Well... I have R32 GTR brakes (Sumitomo's) and I have also been told they are the same as the ZXTT units. If there are any identifying features on the brakes (part numbers or what-not) I can check my calipers to verify.
  19. Hehe... Been to a few of those myself. Always a good time... unless you're working night sorties. I don't mind coming out... it's about a 4 hour drive for me. I might have some friends coming out on one of the E-3 crews. I just don't have my RB Z done... hafta settle with the Subaru.
  20. Red Flag? Are you going to be in town for a week or two? Might could make it out there.
  21. Is that the Wolfsburg plant?
