There is quite a size difference between the 2000GT and the S30. (Photos nicked from classiczcars.com)

I just LOVE those 2000GT's ... In choosing a colour to paint my 240Z project, the best inspiration I can find is the GT's off-white, with black wheels (wata's) and a satin black bonnet. The GT looks so svelte in this scheme and I think it will give the S30Z an underated old school sporty look. Must say, looking at the two together gives one a real idea as to just how tiny (read LOW and narrow) is the GT ...

My last 240Z in 98 was off white and the colour was really good.

don't think removing the reverse lights would be legal. But sounds good otherwise :)


Just saw a 280zx 2 seater. I wish mine was a 2 seater. woo hoo!

I would delete the reverse lights but run both reverse and indicator bulbs through a clear indicator lense if that makes sense ??? it does in my head

bit bored at work and since i need to do few fixes on the 260z i though it will be time for make over # 2 for my 260z 2+2 in near future.

here is my dodgy Paint photoshoping skills on my 260z.

Sulio hope u dont mind me borowing your flares  8)

at glance u wont notice the changes but there are quite a few and still few more to come but i think ill be happy with the result.

so whats on the table.

#1 getting rid of the sunroof for good. YAY  ;D
#2 removing all the door locks and door handles (eat your hearts out thieves  ;D)
#3 custom rear 1/4 windows adapting 2 seater ones into the 2+2 ones never liked that top curve always preffered the style of the 2 seater ones.
#4 removing the fuel filler cap and hiding it behind the number plate
#5 ZG flares and wider rims
#6 front spoiler update

plus few more other bits i may adapt from the 240z to realy confuse the situation what car it is.

Not what I would do to a Zed but you've got to admire the commitment & the matte black looks good.
