84 to 89 300ZX chopper wheel will be find I forgot to Mention

They are not the same, you will have to the base from either a 81 280ZX turbo or a 82 280ZX Turbo, if you look under the base of your Turbo Distributor it should look like a Torx head fitting on a plain 280ZX distributor it has a fitting cut in half, when you get the correct base your Torx like fitting on your Turbo Distributor slide right in that Torx like opening, on my 280ZX Turbo Distributor I also Change the Chopper wheel inside with A chopper wheel from a 84 300ZX what you get is a true #1 cylinder "Home" reference. With the crank angle sensor in the distributor you get 720 degrees of engine rotation for each 360 degree of trigger wheel rotation. This allows for a unique #1 cylinder identifier. The original trigger wheel in the 280zx turbo does not uniquely reference the #1 cylinder. That's why you need to change the wheel. The 81 distributor has no optical sensor built in, which is why they use the crank trigger wheel and pick-up. The 82/83 distributor is a direct drop in replacement

I have to make a correction on the rear spoiler of that Z car, that rear spoiler when looking closer I noticed it is actually the old 3 piece duck tail type spoiler, very popular back in the early 70s they are still available at a price tag of $295.00

The spoiler that you see on that 240z is a ZG-R rear spoiler and you can actually get this spoiler from Zcar Customs are just go to there website @ www.zccjdm.com or there is another seller of the same spoiler and they call it the duck spoiler and it's carbon fiber for a cheaper price @ www.retro-spec.com for $319 vs $595 from Z car customs.

Im using some reaction research rear quarter panel flares, they are good for a 11" to 12" rear wheel

I was just watching criminal minds the episode was extreme aggressor and it was staring a datsun 240z lol for sale, it was a real nice orange z car.

it would be a lot easier to just go and purchase the Zed findings floor boards and tack weld them in place, just make sure that you have a pair of grip pliers to hold the floor boards in place, and you want to try and cut and have shape of the floor boards that you are about to install, don't try and take out to much of the original floor boards, to get an Ideal on how to weld and install the z floor boards you can find video on youtube.

I had sent a email to Zforce productions about the availability of the Bamf flares but i did not receive a reply to my personal email address, and I dont have a contact number to call

here is a photo of the wheel and rear quarter flare that did the coverage over the wheel and it's a 17x11" 6" lip with a 5" backspace

Thanks for the link DevilZ and R26 but I don't think they will be wide enough because I have a 6" lip with a 5" backspace, I like the flares because all I have to do is some trimming at the wheel well and slap the flares on, but i just don't think they will be wide enough, the flares that i used on my other 240z where from reaction research and they fit perfectly but they are the whole quarter panel and i had to mold them in and its a project and I would have to paint the whole rear quarters vs the link that you showed me the flares for $350.00 I will post some photos of the wheel and the previous z that I had them on

Does anyone know whats going on with zforce productions im looking for some real wide flares that will cover my 17x11" wheels and the Bamf flares where the only flares that I knew would probably cover this wide wheel as well as needing some flares for my front 17x9" wheels, I dont care if I have to order them from overseas.

its so weird because i was surfing the web for some new kind of flares for my 73 Datsun 240z when i came across the write up, I was in disbelief at first but it was mentioned to me that there was some gentlemen taking photos of the car including the anchor news cast guy from Foxs news yes i said it fox news the network that has bill o'reilly on it, i will be taking some time in the coming weeks to get in touch with the editor who did the write up and hopefully maybe we can get some more z cars noticed, and by the way the wheels are made by Image wheels they are wheel makers out of great britain.

I was down in Manhattan New York of last year 2011 in July, taking care of some business and i had drove down my 1972 Turbocharged Datsun 240Z that I normally take to a Parking garage on 48 St W in Manhattan but it was not until 8 months later that I realized that the Wall St Journal had actually done a small write up on my car, first and foremost I would like to thank everyone here at HybridZ for all of there Ideals and technical Info, as well as there support for some of my own ideals that most people would have thought was crazy to try, but not HybridZ I always received Encouragement and people here would always say let us know how it comes out and to post your Ideals and projects when they where done, My Datsun 240Z would have never been noticed if it weren't for the support from everyone here at HybridZ.com Here is the link to the small write up that the Wall St Journal did on my Datsun Zcar http://blogs.wsj.com/drivers-seat/2011/07/30/vintage-240z-not-quite-original-but-who-cares/?blog_id=146&post_id=7579

Im about to change my head gasket on my L28ET engine, I noticed that the fel-pro head gasket had about 14 more cooling passage holes then the oem 280zx turbo head gasket, but i keep hearing people say go with the oem, but this could effect the cooling properties of the head and block, is there a particular reason why nissan decided to close up those certain water passage area's on the head gasket hhhhm.
