thats 21, I'm sure we can get more, c'mon guys chime in...who's not on the list yet?
Sulio
Lurch, Nick just called. The brakes he has are S2 280ZX brakes so that works for me but he had a hunt around for the MC and just realised he sold it to a 1600 go some time back. Bummer, but I'm hoping to go to Centre Rd wreckers on the weekend so I'll have a hunt around.
Sulio
Hi Nick,
Further to our phone discussion, I beleive I need the series 2 calilpers and rotors as per pics below as I'm using the US Maxima flat bracket which places the caliper at different offest than the series 1. I believe the series S2 rotors have the 47mm hats.
Thanks,
Sulio
cool...update to 20, c'mon keep em comin fella's...

I have some memory of reading that ducting the front spoiler holes to your front brakes to cool them is easier to do with vented rotors than solids. I think the thread said something about cold spots on the solids vs the vented ones which tend to spread the cool air out through the vents of the disc???
Does anybody have any advice on this and how much can you expect it to help such a set up to cool the discs or reduce brake fade by?
Sulio
...update, ok were up to 18 Zeds, theres gotta be more...come on fella's who's in touch with Richard (Biggels)? he's usually up for a spin. Still waiting on Matt Drago to respond also...20 cars would be good! Gavin...you should be able to catch a flight down for the day, would'nt more than a 22 hour flight, c'mon?

hehe...yer, I'm all over the place! Anyhow I want to get these rear brakes installled when I find the calipers and hopefully some Tokico Illuminas for the 5 way adjustment. Thing is the dollars is cacked itself so I'll see how things go with the shocks. Adjustable Koni's are a tad rich for me atm.
I just joined the Gippsalnd Car Club. The plan is to get the car ready for some Hill Climb events and ahev some fun.
Sulio
Yer this was why i told Chris to sell em and keep the cash as I expect the frieght would be at least $200 to Melbourne. Unfortunalty I did'nt get a chance to drive out to pick em up as planned.
Sulio
If your concerned about fuel and it's a daily you might find you'll be running 16 or 17L per 100km with 3.1L on tripple 44's as I'm getting around 14L/100km on a L28 with 40's but not conerned as it's not a daily driver.
Sulio
Hi Glenn, yes 36 today...but as I say to the Mrs, it's a MANS 36 which is equal to a WOMENS 26, hehe...she hates that.
Funny you should mention the horns as I thoought these might go over the top of them but your right I don't think there is room from memory. Yer definatley would'nt want to get rid of the air horns as apparently they do impact on air velocity into the carb.
Rob Creightons got a really nice FG box to fit over Webbers or Dells. It lookes factory with Z SPORT or NISSAN SPORT on the side of it and you can run a K&N filter out front with it. I've been trying to find out where I can source one for ages. I believe Gavin Strongman was selling them at one stage. I'll persist and post info when I eventually find/buy one.
Sulio
yer thought they were Ram Flos, I had a pair on my SU's. Just was'nt sure where to buy em. Not sure wether to go for them (they look nice) or a cold air intake box with a K&N filter with all these guys talking of the improved performance they're getting with em.
Sulio
Once again my apologies fellas. I've got my boss down from Sydney which commits me for dinner. The premises is company owned so you can see my predicament. Anyhow the 20th is a definate.

...well thats 14 maybe 15. It would be nice to hit at least 20 cars. What about Biggelz, Matt Drago, Glen (White 2+2) and Glens mate I think Mick from memory...c'mon fellas. It'll be a nice drive afterwoulds also. Blackspurr...
Sorry guys but there needs to be a date change due to facility availability. Pushed from next Wed 19th to the following night the Thursday 20th. My appologies if this causes an inconvinience but it's unavoidable.
OK so that would make it the 20th of November at 7:00pm.
Address is 5 / 54 Howleys Rd Notting Hill, Vic
I'll sort out some sausages and bread. We've already got sauce and mustard so everyone please just bring along your choice of drinks.
Sulio
Well counts at 9. C'mon I can think of a few more, RevZ, Dale, Scoota, Biggels, Spamaster Bruce, MattDrago, Kyle, Warrenz, John(red RB John) hmmm...who else is there we can put some pressure on!
To get over 20 cars would be great!
