hmm......... well that sucks the fool that had my z befor me removed the pads from the calper , he then cut and bent the brake line over so that the brakes in the back dont work .I think he wanted to be able to power braKE the car. i need brake lines and calpers and roters for the rear of the z
they sell roters for $25 a peace and calpers for $125 ther at the parts store here but no metal brake lines listed where do i go to get thoughs and are the other parts ok prices or should i wait and by better stuff "ie" after market

man ive had that wing since the late 80's early 90's its a fiberglass replica of the 280ZX-R wing.. i dont know who made it or if its still even available... you might try asking motorsports to see if they carry it.. but i doubt it.. i looked through thier catalog but didnt see it there... sorry man..
