19762802+2 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Mark Rolston has owned the same 240Z for ten years. He obviously has used that time to build one of the nicest 240Z on earth. After breaking the original engine in the 240 Mark decided his new engine would be the ever great RB26DETT from a Nissan Skyline GTR and in the current configuration is putting out roughly 600hp. That kind of power in a 240 makes this car something to be feared anywhere there is a flat surface for the tires to bite. Everything else on this car has been upgraded including the suspension, brakes, lowered 2-3 inches, control arms, and 18″x11″ wheels all around. The body has been upgraded as well with a dry carbon-fiber custom hood and fiberglass fender flares. Mark even says if you are interested in one of these Al’s bodywork (512-836-1851) in Austin, Texas still has the molds. Found all of this with google within minutes.

zlalomz Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Those look like Motorsports "IMSA" flares. They are a bit wider and have the mud flaps compared to Motorsport "street flares" that I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PR280z Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Thanks, 19752802+2. I`ll be giving them a call to see if they can come up with what i need.This is what i have.They are called ISMA flares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240z8 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 For the specific flares on that car, heres a link to his website. There is a phone number to a person with molds. I think they may only be available in CF, it says anyone wants a copy of these CF parts (hatch, flares, fenders, hood, door panels, sills, splitter) call Al’s Bodyworks at 512-836-1851. He’s got the molds now and wants to sell more copies but I haven't called then so you could give that a try. http://web.mac.com/markrolston/NewSite/Z-Blog/Entries/2009/4/4_New_Aero_Parts.html EDIT: Whoops, I just noticed 19752802+2 posted a phone number already, I really need to refresh pages and read them before I post. I had to go to school almost 2 hours before he posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrain Posted December 1, 2009 Author Share Posted December 1, 2009 wow thanks everybody, I am not sure how well my 16x8 will fit under these but we will see I will give Him a call or maybe pay him a visit as I am going to Austin this Christmas.

jeffer949 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Hey guys those where actually custom made by his body man IIRC. I remember reading this when he was the ride of the month over at zcar. I believe he made molds for them also. Just contact the member on here. I cant remember his name but i think his current build is something like insane crazy 240z build.
