Wire wheels, V8 and a scoop make this more hotrod style but i must admit i was influenced by a fellow with a 393 Powered Zed before i built this.. I like this one more than my 2 Seater. Oh and i got some new stuff going on with the engine to take the Nitrous.
They are just a different shape on the ends and doesn't go all the way up to the inner lip like the original one does. You can extend it if you like but the rubber hides the gap anyway. Keep your old one after you drill out all the spot weld because you can use it as a guide to drill out the new one for plug welds or if you have a strong enough spot welder for the same purpose.
Yea mate you have my mobile. If you want the brakes on a different orientation i have another set of brackets here that could be modified to suit before you drop in on changeover basis. Would make the process a fair bit quicker.
See thing is i am probably going to put Green Zed on club Rego and put BAD260 plates on the black one. Unless i sell the BAD260 plates and buy these, kinda like my BAD260 plates but :-\
R200 are good up to 330 Ft/lbs of torque. The car has extended chassis rails but is not seam welded. The car weighs 1300Kgs as it sits but the weight loss from the alloy heads gets the Cleveland at the same weight as the L series but the transmission is still heavier. I like the black too but it will only be like this for one year.
I was either going to go for a stroker or nitrous. Of course you have to build the engine to handle nitrous but it's only a 150 shot so it doesn't require anything dramatic.
I just paid the rego on this Zed and traveled about 13.000 Kilometers this past year. Still going strong and i'm currently putting together parts for a killer engine package. Might need another run on the Dyno and some wider tyres on the rear!
Too far gone? Must be pretty bad. I did some fairly extensive repairs on Viveks 240Z doors. Do you have pictures? Be very hard to find a good set of 2 Seater doors and they will cost plenty.
Following a request i have now fabricated a Driver's side dolly for the same area. I'll be knocking a set out soon and i will post up a photo. At this rate i think i will have to become a sponsor of Auszcar.
