jay28 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 well with my car being so low and the large wheels Ide be afrais of rubbing, so with no back seats I have an excuse not to carry anyont in the back. I miss not having a project now, the best part was working on the car all hours of the night, half thinking about selling it and starting another project!

Challenger Posted July 15, 2008 Author Share Posted July 15, 2008 Hey, Im not missing having a project... Ive been working on this for 5 years and just want to drive it! As for rubbing did you not cut the fenders for the flares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragefear Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I proabably asked this already but where are you guys getting your interior pieces? I need to get all new interior. EVERYTHING. Everything that I have is tan and its got to go! I want it all black! thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay28 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I havent even looked about the interior fittings yet, I did cut the arches, I cut an inch first, but there was a small amount of rubbing so I had to cut a further half inch out, its fine now. Wow 5 years is a long time, I done mine in 4 months including the engine build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil-Z Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Great looking car. What kind of rear spoiler did you use? I'd like to put one on my 2+2 but most vendors don't carry any (only for coupe). Any suggestions/advise? Julius European Z's came standard with a rear spoiler. Sucks huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger Posted July 17, 2008 Author Share Posted July 17, 2008 Yeah thee 2+2's have a whole different look. They are longer and sleeker. And lowered with zg flares they look really proportionate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datman Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Removing the rear bumper should be law for all 2+2 owners...it transforms the car.... 1 fast z that looks fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duder280z Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Yeah Challenger, looking sick! I was already thinking dark metallic grey when I change colors, now I'm sold. Very nice dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 Well I got it running, smoked awhile and had a few vacume leaks (unbolted air regulator parts) put that back on and plugged a tube and added some fuel injector cleaner and it ran great. Took it around the block a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if it is the huge american bumper! I like the small one we got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280Z Turbo Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Only if it is the huge american bumper! I like the small one we got. I'd rather have that bumper too, but a Euro/JDM 2+2 rear bumper is a little hard to come by in these parts. That's why I'm going bumperless in the rear. My stock rear bumper weighs 38 lbs. The shocks weigh about 7 lbs a piece and the rubber add a few more pounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garvice Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 If you do want one, look at the Australian Ebay website http://www.ebay.com.au Every 6-12 months someone seems to be wrecking a 2+2 260. Not sure what postage would be, but I know the z32 adapter I got from Austin wasn't much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
