big brake kit
 

I have a 82 280zxt and i want to put a big brake kit on it but i cant find any nor can a find some 18" wheels that will fit it. so far i have no mods just stock. Thanks Steve

I'm not positive, but I don't think 18's will fit on a ZX, and finding them with the right offset and bolt pattern should be pretty challenging. Are you sure you like wheels that big look on that car? I know 17's look real nice on the first generation Z's, but the ZX's don't look very good with large diameter wheels, IMO.

youll never get 18s to fit but i know 17s will.. your going to have to get wheel spacers to get them to fit.. theres only a few rims i know that have the right offset but good luck finding them.. if you want a big break kit i know that ross coragan from modern-motorsports.com was working on a set for the 280ZX.. go check out his website.. they sell wheel spacers there too.. thats where i went to get mine.. ill have some pics up soon on here showing off my new 17" rims on my 280ZX.....

this his how 17s look on a ZX.. i think they look fine to me...

Wow dude...
 

I tell ya ice, I like your Z more every time I see it! Something about how clean it looks makes me wish I had the means to repaint mine. What type of wheels are those? They look pretty sharp, and I usually don't like big rims on the ZX. Nice wing btw ;)

Just noticed...
 

Hah, I just noticed that the Z in the background of your picture looks just like mine, only I have the stainless pillar things.

hahah belive it or not.. but thats how my car started out looking like... i just use that as my parts car.. i gotta get rid of it soon cuz its an eyesore on my driveway.. but to answer your question.. those are tenzo SHU4.. i found those on e bay going for $100 each and i had to jump on that.. ive had them sitting in my garage for almsot a year.. i dont know what took me so long putting them on.. :D

wow, your car looks very good. The wheels fit with its personality nicely. I like your interrior work too with the silver dash. The shaved markers look great although I would never get away with that around here.
