Guest JAMIE T Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 Ok, I'll bite. My Dream Z would(will) be my '72 with a custom tube front subframe(already in progress, thanks to good photos from Ron Jones, thanx Ron). The roll cage(already in the car) will tie into the front subframe. It will have coilovers, and big brakes from Mike/SCCA. Fully adjustable control arms from Mikelly. A full one piece fiberglass front end(already have that too). The car will look just like the Wangon Midnight car(ZG Flares and BRE spoiler), only my car will be new GM Sunset Orange Metallic, and have 17"x9" Volk racing/Rays engineering TE37 wheels in bronze or white. Interior will sport some Sparco or Recaro racing seats in tan leather or suede, to match the rest of the tan leather trim in the car. Autometer ultralite gauges(silver). Also, it will have full power everything and a killer stereo, with video and a Playstation 2 for DVD ability, and a flip down moniter when you open the hatch(for playing Wangon Midnight at car shows) As for motivation, A turbo'd LT4(better heads and intake than LT1) stroked to 396 cubes, and a T56 trans and an R230 3.69 VLSD rear from a Q45. Yeah, that should do it. Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest the_dj Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 I couldn't resist. I found this in a search, so here goes. 78 280Z (might as well start with at least one thing I have already) 406cid aluminum block sbc, d-1 procharger running 18psi boost, built top and bottom for an 8500 redline, 180 degree headers + x-pipe to make it sound like a 4-banger, all assembled by me of course. Handmade, by me, fiberglass/kevlar composite body panels for that dream look that resides only in my head. HRE 19" rims, black centers with polished lip. 255 up front and 345 in back. Digital dash run from a laptop computer that ties to the engine ECU, software of course written by me (any pattern emerging?? I like to do it my way??) Nothing in the way of big fricken stereo or anything...not my boat. I want things different.........anyway, I'm sure that 900hp in a Z that sounds like a 4 banger would be ... scary? DJSS Ahhhh what a fun post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 A 1970 Datsun 240Z black on black. Then I'd put in a 93 Mazda Rotary TT engine from an RX-7. Upgraded brakes and suspension and a 280ZX LSD rear end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Star 1 Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 I'll take DavyZ's car but with LS1 motor, with heads and cam making about 425 RWHP. Add the Nosizal EFI Nos kit and squize about 125 shot into that LS1.. And while Iwas at I go ahead and install a C5 rear transaxal, T56, with 411 gears.

danj Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 My dream Z would be to get mine back from the fabricator so I can put the pedal to the metal. I dropped the car off in Phoenix last July and the project is taking much longer than I had hoped. Once I get it back I may add to my dream.

BTW sequential gearboxes are VERY expensive and most can not handle anything close to 900 hp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
