209runner Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I've been looking for some rear quarter for my 240z and I think I found the one I want. The only problem is I don't know who makes it. Any info wound be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six_Shooter Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Those are sweet, because they retain the stock lines of the car. IIRC those were custom made by the builder of that car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savageskaterkid Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 It looks very similar to Dan Juday's car IIRC, its been awhile since I've seen a pic of his car. I know this isn't his, but he comes to mind when I see this pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeWard Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Very nice. More than likely custom. I want to know too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Pretty sure they were made in Japan along with that car. Powered by a plain old 760hp twin turbo VH45DE with a pair of TD06-20G Mitsubishi turbos... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 you really should examine the picture a bit more. it says "photos & owner" in the copyrights. search that persons name and you may be able to get some more info, but don't expect it to be a mold or a kit, the car was completely custom with a lot of goodies and has a full rollcage, aluminum dash, and a VH45DETT.

blueovalz Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I agree. Looking at other photos of this car, it was apparent these quarters were either modified OTC parts, or completely fabricated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmogSUX Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 WHat's IIRC mean? And :drool: that paint is sooo glossy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nullbound Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I was in touch with the owner a few years ago... through an interpreter. Those fenders are definitely fabricated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

209runner Posted March 19, 2008 Author Share Posted March 19, 2008 Dan do you have a wide body on your Z? If so can you post a couple of pictures of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueovalz Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Nicest thing anyone has said about me all week. Dan, that's not true. I was just telling somebody this weekend how nice it was not hearing you chime in as much as you used to.... :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: I just kill myself!

rickl750 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Guys, Here's some info on this car: http://forums.thecarlounge.net/zerothread?id=2115791 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil280zxt Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Always thought the rear quarters on this car have the same body lines as the Porsche 944. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 HERE is a post I made on some info that I found on the web about that car... Not quite PORSCHE 944 flares... I have seen a bodykit somewhere that does put 944 style flares on a Z. (Thanks Dan, Reaction Reasearch is it.) That black Z that always comes up on ebay has them I believe.

Dan Juday Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Always thought the rear quarters on this car have the same body lines as the Porsche 944. Pardon me while I "chime in" here. (j.k. all in good fun I know) John Washington makes a set of flares for the S30 that mimic the 944: http://www.reactionresearch.com/940z.html I must admit though, they are not near as nice IMHO is the the ones on that blue Z. They do, however, have the advantage of being obtainable by simply writing a check. They may also be a good starting point for someone wanting to duplicate something like the ones on the blue Z.
