One owner? You're not old enough to be the original owner!

with a slight application of logic you can surmise that he bought a one owner car.

Lol thanks guys. My mom bought it back in 1978 off the show room floor. When she had us (Im a triplet) she never touched the car and bought a SUV. So it was garaged for many years until I got my license.

Yes its alot stiffer with the coilovers and it did rub a bit on the back, but we bent the inside lip flat (which you cant see anyways) with a rubber hammer and it fixed the problem. I try not to drive it all the time its more of a show car now. =]

That's a nice looking Z! Where did you get your HIDs? Or did you make them yourself. I'd like to do those for my 280Z.

I bought the HID kit off ebay, you just need to find the right ones for your car then get a universal housing to put them in. As of now the HID's are out of my car because they fried my switch. I guess I didnt use a relay owell haha..

The S30 switch will get fried even with factory sealed beam headlights. Of course you need a relay.
