Not your typical 280zx... check it out, quite different & unique

[Guest 280ZForce]

saw this guy on cardomain, pretty unique... he says it's JGTC inspired and supposedly has a turbo L28 in it but no pics under the hood. Not too sure how JGTC it is with all that heavy audio stuff but I suppose it's just a show car.

 

Here's the cardomain link... http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3000779

Justin - Interesting find...well it is a turbo..here is the proof:

 

 

I think it looks pretty good here:

 

It says the owner of the car owns a shop called 1/4 mile Cutoms Paint and Performance. So I guess they wanted to showcase their work. The paint job is pretty incredible and I can definitely respect it, but it has too much body kit overall and from the rear 1/4 to the back bumper has too ass.

 

Needless to say, its different and definitely a show piece. Its on bags or hydraulics too.

 

Lots of time went into that bad boy!

it is all seamless.. thats what i like about it.. and the paint reflects that... i think its awesome.. the exhaust behind the front wheel is a nice touch also...

I think the idea behind the riveted panel style one is good, but not great execution.

Overall, I like it, but I think the interior needs some work to be brought up to par with the rest of the car

I agree...that red interior is a bore and hard to look at! Cool paint job but Id get tired of it..... guess its perfect for the show circuit. Nicely integrated Skyline taillights!

What is "JGTC"?

 

I had seen pictures of that car a couple months ago IIRC. IMO it looked FAR better in the red than the silver. The "panel" look is hard to look at and is too busy.

JGTC means Japan Grand Touring Car. They are like super GT cars in the race circuit.

 

here's 1 of the JGTC R34 Skylines...

does it look completely ridicules? YES. would people stare as you drove down the road? HELL YES. would my wife drive in it with me? OH NO. would I own that? SURE.

 

I think the panels look cool! gotta weigh a ton:confused:

I do like the front features alot. Personally missed on the rear quarter panels. Over all glad to see increasing interest in the s130.

JGTC doesn't come to mind when seeing that car. Definately different.

[mrkopsho]

Over all I love the body kit. I think it would look good all chrome.

[m4xwellmurd3r]

I can see the resemblance to a JGTC car. it's an edgy wide body kit that alters the entire shape of the car for the most part. I think the panel job could've been done better. I like how it was done on the rear tail lights. had he gone for a more subtle look it would've overall looked much nicer.

[woldson]

^^Agreed.
