Ive always liked the way wheels look with lips on them. Adds at least 50 more hp for cool wheels like stickers on rice burners. LOL. Kidding. But for real those are sweet rims. Any more plans for your "Z"?

Nice Z man! i love the wheels how do they fit? i want as big a set as possible on my 71, but im told that nothing over a 225 will fit in the back, i say BS bacause i've fit 245/50/16 on the rear of my old 78, so if i were to put the 265 in the rear on a 8.5 wheel do you think the tire will hit the rear shock mount? or is that why you have the slightly slim tires to clear that? (or coil overs). LMK im ver intrested, i think i speak for alot of us when i sau i'd like to have my Z look like that.

yeah, in my photobucket account, here's the link:

http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y46...40Z/Z%20wreck/

When I hit the girl (it was her fault) it shoved my bumper back, bending the radiator support, bending the drivers side fender, and shoved the radiator into my engine. I got a good settlement from it though, enough to do most, if not all, of the work I want to do to the Z.

Here is a couple of recent pics of my front bumper repainted and installed. Also my Autobot license plate, and Z hood emblem. Just sitting on the hood for now. I made a custom one a while back, and can't seem to find it. Also I am using the turn signals off my '82, and that they are smaller than the '81's. But they will do for now, until somebody hooks me up with a '79-'81 set. Anyway here you go enjoy.

Look at my exhaust

Is my exhaust not normal? Look its on the right side of the car. In most of the other pictures of others cars I've noticed that the exhaust tail pipes are on the left side.. What gives?

You have a '79 to '81 ZX. They all exit on the right side of the car, except for the '81 Turbo I believe.

With the '82 & '83 model years, they changed it to exit on the left side.

When I replaced the exhaust on my '80 280ZX, I cut a slot out on the driver side rear valence for the new dual tip exhaust.

This also eliminated the last two 90 deg bends in the exhaust pipe.
