I have not run that exact size, but I did run RA1's in 225/50/15 on zero offset Rewinds with no rubbing. It also depends on if you have the stock front valance or an air dam on the front. If you have...

That's cool. I thought putting it back to stock would be pretty tuff to do, but thought he might want to with such a low VIN car.

Whatever happened to the 2 Z's that were used for North American testing? I believe they were shipped back to Japan for evaluation after the test. Wonder what happened to them after that?
Marty
Absolutely stunning!!! Congrats Jerry, she turned out beautiful.
Any idea what Les plans to do with the #29 car?

I am with conedodger. I quit entering car shows. Oh, my car won plenty of awards and even a couple of Best in Shows. It is very stock (maybe 3-4 not totally stock parts on it) and nicely detailed...
I have relatively new Nissan wires on my car. Recently, I switched to a ZX Distributor and MSD Blaster II coil. I was wondering if the sotck wires are adequate, or should I upgrade to something...
Hey Rich,
How do you do in the show?

You can also stick a couple 0f 2x10's, about three feet long under the ramps, to help cut down the angle even more.

So, how did you manage to get an invite to see the hanger?
Thanks for the reply Wade, but I picked one up some time ago.
My yellow track car had the quick steering knuckles, and they made a big difference. I liked them a lot. The car was maybe an inch or so lowered and I did not use the bump steer spacers. I did not...
I am SOOOOO jealous!! There is an LS1 powered 260Z at the tracks around here. He intimidates the hell out of the Z06's. If you are tracking the car, I hope it has a really good roll cage and 5...
I was also enjoying a re-read of this thread. But you never answered the question on where the builds stands today. Did you finish the car? I would be interested in seeing updated pictures.

Does anyone sell the transverse link supports with the ears separately? Without having to buy the whole sway bar kit?
TIA,

First make sure that your calipers are on the correct side, with the bleeder pointing up as Zed Head said.
Bleed the Master cylinder first. Then make sure the rear drums are adjusted to get all...
I agree with Chuck. I used drum brakes with the Toyota vented 4X4 upgrade in the front on my track car and they performed great. Just get some decent pads and make sure you adjust the rears...
It looks very similar to the Bob Sharp racing wheel that came on my track car when I bought it. That was made by Racemark. I really liked the feel of that wheel on the track.

How does $25 +shipping sound?
One small clarification: You can use the early version clutch fork and slave cylinder with a 225mm 280Z clutch. Functionally they do the same job. You just have to adjust it once in a while. If...
As an alternative, I have a decent pair of rust-free inspection lids, from AZ, that I could sell you. send me a PM if you are interested.
Marty
Zedy,
The critical thing to keep straight is, to match the clutch to the throw out bearing collar, and to match the fork to the slave cylinder.
If you use the stock 240Z Clutch and pressure...
Congrats! It is a VERY nice looking car. I especially like the blue interior. Love that color combo.
Marty
How did you get the center caps to stay on the front of those Rewinds?
Marty
Very nice! What brand strut bar is that and where did you get it??
Thanks,
Marty
Congrats Rich, that is outstanding!!! Beautiful car. It is also a great thing that you could get your wife to go along and actually enjoy it too!
That is an unbelieveable score to get 2 mint...
