Regulatori Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 I finally took some pics of my 73 Z since we had decent weather in Seattle for one day. My car definitely needs a wash but they came out pretty good. It's on a slight incline...that's why the front has more wheelgap than the rear.

Vintage Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 You have one of the nicest S30s, with the wheels/stance/color, it just looks right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regulatori Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 Thanks for all of the compliments...I really appreciate it. I've had the car for a few years now and I love it. Right after I bought I started a list of the things I wanted to do it and just slowly checked them off as I saved up the money. Here is the specs... 1973 240Z, 3.1 stroker, N42 head, Schneider cam (mild), triple Mikuni 44s with Mikuni manifold, MSA header, 3" exhaust with JIC racing Ti muffler, Cusco strut bars, sectioned coilovers (Illuminas and Ground-Control springs), BRE wing (carbon fiber), Longchamp XR4 rims in 15x8 -14 in the rear and 15x7.5 -7in the front, and a Nardi wheel. The engine needs more tuning but right now it's making around 230hp (at the fly). It's a very good street engine though....lots of midrange and plenty quick. My next purchase is going to be bigger brakes, swaybars, and an LSD. I was looking for a set of the XR4 rims for a long time (over a year) in that size/offset.....they are hard to find because they've been discontinued. The funny thing is that I was browsing the internet while in Iraq which was like a rare treat (I'm in the Marines) and someone just happened to post a used set on a car forum minutes before I logged on. I quickly emailed the person and had my parents write the guy out of check since they had my checkbook. I'm just really happy with the results.

big-phil Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I wish mine was that straight and clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strokin77 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 great looking car. I have similar setup as you, unfortunately I did not build mine, I bought it like that . The only difference between mone and yours is that i run a P90 instead. just curious if you ever run your car at the track and what kind of numbers did you put up.

nbesheer Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I love the wheels, all 5 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackhammer Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Your Z looks great..... like the fact it is "old school" with the stroker and triple Mikuni's. I especially want to say " Thank You " for your service to our country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
