Z808 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 My '71 versus my '79, both after having the steering and suspension completely rebuilt, my 79 felt more stable at high speeds whereas the 71 still felt a little "Squirrely". For aero, the 71 only had a front dam and the 79 has nothing a/m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy85 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 "who the hell would wanna drive across Wyoming at 70mph???' There is nothing followed by even less through most of Wyoming. I'm sure there are many more Antelope than people. It's the most 'nothing as far as the eye can see' drive I've ever been on. My stock OG high-school vintage 260Z went to 120 indicated once but it took a long time to get there and didn't feel too swell. My current 240Z has gone somewhere north of 130 at Milwaukee Mile, is perfectly stable, and gets there much faster. You can say it's just a little off stock though Cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumby Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 My S130 did very well cuising at 150MPH (according to my GPS) on the autobahn in Germany. It was rather loud but I could still hear the engine and blowoff valve when I left off the gas. The car pulled hard all the way there.

Heathhh Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 lol, i have a lot of suspension issues to fix with my 82 280zx 2+2. The front end is all over the place. Needs new struts/springs all around, and the passenger front fender is slightly damaged. It also bent the strut a bit. I hope theres not much more damage than just the strut..I'll be finding out when i get some money and finally take off the wheels to replace suspension.
