My 240Z's progress
Well I have had my 240Z for 2 weeks now so its time to document my build
Specs:
72 240Z
104K on Body 11,343 on engine, turbo, tranny and diff.
1982 L28ET
Borg Warner 5 speed Tranny
R200 Diff non lsd
Front toyota 4 pot brakes
Rear drums
So far i have done lots of maintenance, cleaning, pulling out the interiors to clean and inspect.
Changed thermostat, new MSD fuel pump, all fluids, plugs, fixed bumpers, lights, new gauges, new straight pipe, my beautiful Hoshino wheels, lowered her a bit more, rolled and pulled fenders and bought more parts.
Since the engine, tranny, diff and turbo rebuild it has been 11,343 miles so more power is the word
Already have a Jim Wolfe ECU for 420cc injectors, Cobra Maf, New 420 cc Injectors, having a front mount fabricated this week, manual boost controller, and other little things.
The goal now is 350HP
I love the bodylines of the Z so I really did not want to install flares so after a lot of research and measuring I was able to fit my Impul Hoshinos.
Wheel specs:
Impul Hoshino G5
Fully polished
front 15x9.25 -13 (5 inch lip)
Rear 15x9.25 -38 (5.5 inch lip)
No rubbing at all
As soon as my power goals are accomplished she will be off for body work and a new coat of white paint, she has a couple of rust bubbles very minimum tho so this will be corrected.
Here a couple of quick pictures from a car show in the local area a couple of days ago.

Sweet Z! Can I get some more info on your suspension setup? Also are you using spacers?
I'd like to get some Rota Shakotan's for my 240z when I own it.. Trying to figure out what configuration will fit w/o fender flares. Probably on stock suspension as well (No coils).
I go back on forth about the flares. I like them but I am unsure about chopping up the body.
