Hi All only just got around to joining after a mate mentioned my car on here some time ago. Been a bit of an odd year for me so far as my other vehicle has taken up most of my time after some yoof knobbled it.. anyhow I degress, here's the reason I signed up.... Since the Carb photo was taken i've fitted her out with triple K&N's, she's not needed any other work. Next thing will be a new starter as the current one has started to occassionally stick. Other than that she's been great - Cheers Nick

Absolutely gorgeous. Totally. Love the wheel choice and especailly the tyre choice & profile. Really suits the slightly ballooned look. Please don't hate me, but I just wanted to see what it would look like with a slight tap...nothing excessive. Just a gentle massage with the stick:

A gentle massage of the stick would make a perfect car even more perfect! (Is this even possible!?)

I've removed the centre box as I was having problems getting over speed bumps, she could go lower but am in no hurry to do so, haven't a clue where to start looking for suppliers of lowered suspension for it.

Currently driving a 1972 BMW 1602 as my daily. Don't ask about previous cars - there have been way too many and I stopped counting at 160!

I've removed the centre box as I was having problems getting over speed bumps, she could go lower but am in no hurry to do so, haven't a clue where to start looking for suppliers of lowered suspension for it. |Excuse the plug but...I have a brand new set of lowering springs for a 240z sat in the loft, they'd give you a 38mm drop and +15% spring rate on the road if you're interested (my next 240z will be coilovers) also have replacement stock Tokico dampers (front and rear) if you were after them. Infact if you're looking for any parts - especially any panels, or maybe if you just want spares don't hesistate to email me - my 240z build is in the signature. The parts are in the UK, I just happen to be in Canada at present. Beautiful car, and I LOVE those wheels, interested to know the sizing/model - had something similar planned with 5 spokes for my own Z.

edited....

The wheels are 15x7 and made by Performance, I have nothing else on them sorry.
