I made up my own. First choice was a thinner stripe with the original datsun badge and just recently I tried a little thicker to fit my new badges on the stripe. and...

Hey Ben, How much are they asking for the metal ones?
-
Yer, when I picked up this set Ash said he was giong to be selling them. I beleive he will be charging AUD$35 per blank badge which is about USD$25 ea. He is actually down as ZR240 on this forum and I believe he will be advertising shortly on this site amongst others.

Pics of my badges fresh out of the moulds and 1 hour later all painted to original colours.

Thanks mate. You should be able to get those window rubbers on e-bay. I've seen them come up every couple of weeks for about $80 ea. Jeez...$500 thats pretty a good price. How many peices is the G-nose made up of?

Thanks guys, wow good comprehensive response. I would'nt care that the badges are plastic so thanks for the contact sblake01. I do have a friend thats got a couple of steel ones he's gonna try and make some plastic copies of, but $69.00 sounds ok if that does'nt work out for me. I thought 3 would look good. 1 on each side with 1 placed on the flat part of the rear BRE fin spoiler I'm about to fit. Hi Kiwi ZX+Zed, Yer thats my car, just got the flares on recently, picked them up from a member here called Zkid. I have'nt got any real close pics of the flares prior to fitment but if you have a look in my gallery there are a few pics I've taken pretty close to the car. Zkid had one set on hand that I bought but I'm not sure if he's making any more up. Try out the guy on the link below(Ashley), he's making them and selling them but he's pretty laid back and he's got a set lying around. I'm sure he will give you some real close up pics whilst they're off the car to guide you. http://www.viczcar.com/v-web/bulletin/bb/viewtopic.php?t=331 Nice car, seeing you've already got the g-nose the ZG flares would finish off the look quite nicely and I'm guessing you would'nt see many complete ZG looking cars in NZ as we don't see here in Oz. I know you guys get a lot of imports, did you buy the car from Japan or local? Thank you Sulio

The wheels I've got now are 17x8.5 and 17x9.5 at rear. As far as the RS-8's go that you have I almost bought them but I was umming and arring over wether I wanted 16" or 17" wheels, however the deciding factor for me was the need for spacers. If you do have any issues with offset I suppose you could always get new inner and outer peices rolled for them seeing they are 3 peice and get exactly the offset you would like but from my research that would cost about AUD$300 per wheel here in Australia, thats about USD$220. It's quite a bit of money but I suppose if you get them done in the same dimensions as the watanabes guys use for their ZG set up you'd still be doing quite well in terms of cost and it would look awesome. Cheers Sulio

I almost bought these wheels in those exact dimensions here in Australia, the set I found was originally off a 180sx I think and the owner wanted AUD$600 for them. I was sure they would need spacers at that offset!?? 7240z, if you get them on they will look real nice. I can't remember if they were 2 peice or 3 peice wheels!? Do you know 7240z?

I'm thinking of getting some fairladyZ badges for my car. Which cars were badged with this badge? From memory I thought that only cars in Japan had the fairladyZ badge on it. Did they call all Z's in Japan fairladys? Cheers Sulio

Fun in my Z, I beleive they are sold in the US. Rusty77z, Yer the front 8.5" are -8 and the rear 9.5" are -19. The rears do rub on bumps but the plan is to cut the guards soon. Sulio -

2-4-t-Z-MAN, The tyres did extend beyond the orig quarters which means I'll have to cut the originals at some stage hopefully later this week as the current clearance is only about 10mm! Zeewhiz, The wheels are called VENTURO's made in Australia by a company called ROH. They are a 17" 3 piece custom wheel. 17x8.5 at front with 17x9.5 at rear. Tyres are 225x45 at front and 255x40 at rear. Alfadog, Gav told me he was quite impressed with the fat set up on your car. Oh year funny you mention that stripe as you are the 3rd person to pick up on it. I just took it off to mount the flares, I've got plenty more stripe sticker so I'll stick a new one over it on the weekend. Cheers Sulio

Hi Ed, Hehe...yer I'm a wheel junkie but I think I finally found something that I really like. They're made here in Australia by a Co called ROH. 17 inch in size. Fronts are 8.5 inch wide and rears are 9.5. Offset -6 for the front and -19 for the rear. This set up clears the original suspension however there is some cutting of original fenders required to fit the rim and rubber under the new flares. Cheers Sulio -

Mrdatto, I bought this set of flares from Zkid (username) from this site. He is located in Adelaide. Not sure if he is making any more. You can also try Ashley (ZR240) on www.viczcar.com as he has moulds for ZG flares, a number of z front spoiler moulds and the rear BRE fin. I am still thinking about which front spoiler to get. Rear fin would look nice I think. I got the seats from a company that imports them from O/S. They are located in Bendigo. Can't remember the name but they have no badging on them and are basically a Recaro copy but they feel and look great. Got em for a good price too. PM me if you want more details on the seats. Cheers Sulio
