love-my-V8-280Z Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 Looks good! I have seen pics of your car before. Can you tell me what size tires you are running, I have never seen tires that stick out past the fender before, do you ever hit? thanks Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BQR280Z Posted March 14, 2004 Author Share Posted March 14, 2004 The tires are Champiro 205/50-15's. The wheels are Enkei Blades and are 8" wide with zero offset. The result is an old-school deep dish reverse style wheel with a very agressive look, wide stance. I know it is old-school but I like it.

80LS1T Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Hey Bill! Sorry I never got over to you place after you gave me that strut assembley. My car wasnt running the best so I parked it for the winter in late september I have seen Bill's car in person and it is very nice! Lots of custom and very unique features! I really like the fuel door! 8) Anyways....I promise to stop by sometime this summer! I am going to be painting it soon! So it will be pretty close to finished then(not that cars like these are ever done! LOL) Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BQR280Z Posted March 15, 2004 Author Share Posted March 15, 2004 The basic spoiler is from an 81 Escort GT, came from a local boneyard, was cracked, price - $15. After that, the build-up is all mine. I kicked around cutting it into a 3 piece, and originally was going to keep the rear hatch latch button, but ended up with a semi-whaletail. It is definately different, and everybody says it belongs on "my" car. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BQR280Z Posted March 21, 2004 Author Share Posted March 21, 2004 Has anyone added an aero splitter?? Any recommendations on how far forward one should exend?? I planned on running it under the car all the way to the front cross member. I would love to use a sheet of carbon fiber material but don't know where to find one that size (any help??) so I will probably end up with a sheet of 3/16" aluminum.

BQR280Z Posted May 10, 2004 Author Share Posted May 10, 2004 80LT1, This Friday, May 14 is the annual car show in Clintonville, if your Z is up and painted bring it by. My Z will be there. Just got a new purge system for the NOS with a hi-intensity blue LED that lights up the purge cloud - looks awesome. I'll try to get some cool pix and post them.
