olie05 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 You should change the title of the post to kaminari instead of kamiari... I came looking for a crazy japanese body kit. -Oliver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kraymond Posted August 18, 2005 Author Share Posted August 18, 2005 I have not done much research on tires/wheels and not sure how big I can go but any recomendations would be welcome. I have stock struts with a koni suspension kit and will put in an R200 or R 230 with rear disc brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dudeboy Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Kraymond, If you have not seen this picture, you might like this: http://album.hybridz.org/showphoto.php?photo=3813&cat=500&page=1 When i lived in San Diego, Cali, long, long time ago there was a guy who had the kit on his car -smoke gray color with centerlines and Yokohama AVS sports. I can't remeber if they were 285/40 or 295/40 -15 inch, but they do not make these tires anymore, so you have to get created with the plus1, plus 2, and even plus 3 sizes with the tires today to fill those flares.

Dudeboy Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 By the way, That is good looking bodykit and different and good luck with the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Battle Pope Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Upon further inspection, it really "squares" the car out. Almost makes it look like an early design of the 280ZX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest iskone Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Kraymond: Looks good! I couldn't tell how much extra space for wheels you have from the pics but I would think at least 295's with the stock supension. I would change out to coils if I was you. With coils 315's or 335's should be possible. Dudeboy: Where is the yellow Z from? I like what they did with the rear bumper and air dam. Don't care for the wheels but it looks really nice over all.

Dudeboy Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Not to steal this thread, my apology. Iskone, The yellow car is in Germany: http://www.grombil.com Those are Porsche 930 Turbo 11 inch flares and rear bumper (steel) massaged to fit the Z.

Oldestzguy Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I am familiar with that kit from a long time ago. It reminds me of the "all business" "Can Am" look. Does anybody remember that very wild white Can Am 280 ZX car with my same stripes on it for sale on Ebay about six months ago? This following statement is a compliment to you! Your kit led me to wonder if the new Dodge Pickup dually flares could be sectioned and molded and/or rounded to flare into the door like your kit has, etc. If you look at them, they are very nice, can be picked up a junkyards, etc real cheap and are factory strong. If I can't get the other flares I want, or I decide not to do the Porsche flares which look great;, I am going to be very creative with a wild, "full race" Can-Am look with a big wing and try to use the dually flares off of a big truck for the rear and a small truck for the front. Chevy has the squared off wheel well openings and Ford and Dodge have rounded ones although the circle looks too big. Great job, great look. I am jealous.
