I think you should hold off on rims until you get the flares on due to the fact that a big bit of metal has to be cut from the rear arch in order to fit the flares on properly and allow a bigger sized rim on there. I gave you the offset previously for the Watanabe rims on a stock C110, did you want to know the offset for a GTR? (flared C110)

OK, for those who really loved this game but were annoyed that you could only hit it around the 320 mark... Some people hacked the source This one you can hit the Penguin over twice as far. This one is ridiculous, I hit the penguin 5-10 minutes ago and it still hasn't stopped. Obviously the crazy "rocket-up-arse" one is a bit silly but the first one is still just as fun with the added bonus of extra distance. :devious:

LOL LOL Crazy, Mad, Nuts, Bonkers, Looney (Luni). It's funny the things you take for granted. Mind you, if you heard me say it in person I'm sure you'd understand. doolally (doo-lah-lee)

Either I've gone blind and doo-lally or you didn't actually post a URL or a link of the site you're talking about. :dead:

Videos worked fine for me... however. Drifting? Driving at 10km/h then sliding sideways for a little while. Yes! Oh, and one of the video files didn't exist apparently, the third one. So I only saw two. Maybe the third one had all the drifting in it.

Cat Bowling: First Go 118 w/ 3 Strikes in a Row. Haven't played it again yet, too busy hitting penguins ROFL Penguin Batting: First Go 306.8 Bouncer Best so Far 320.5 Bouncer Best High Shot 205.6 Certainly a good way to pass the time.

Ok, here goes. The Rear Bumper Part Numbers; 85011-R3000 Sedan 85011-R5200 GT (England) 1/74 85011-R5250 GT (England) 2/74 ----- 85011-R3000 Hardtop 85011-R5200 Hardtop (Option) 85011-R5250 Hardtop (EC) - I don't know what the EC stands for . 85011-R3050 Hardtop (Europe except EC.) So, going by that I would assume they are a swap but I guess the best way to tell is to give it a try, or measure the mouting points.

So, if I buy you some Spark Plug leads or... more appropriate to my current funds.. a new fuse. You'll put my name on your car?? LOL

Without meaning to seem perhaps a little rude, it seems to me that if you had of read the post from start to finish you would have came to that exact conclusion without the need to wait for emails. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad the owner is now part of the forum. But no further information has been gained at all, as (thanks to Alfadog) we already knew the story behind it.

Simply Datto_240Z. No. From my understanding, the 280ZX is a Z'X' as the X stands for Lu'X'ury, all the fiddly fancy (for the time) gadgets that came with the car. Also isn't the model designation number S130? as opposed to S31? As the Z cars (as with most Nissan models during roughly the same time period) changed designation numbers. ie. C10, C110 (C111), C210(C211), R30. ie. S30, S130, Z31. There's also other model ranges that did the same. Corrections are accepted and thanked. :classic:

As I understand it, No. The Mikuni Solex Carbs have 2 barrells per carb, thusly Triple Mikunis provide 1 barrel per cylinder. I don't think there'd be an easy or efficient manner of setting up 4 barrells to 6 cylinders. It just doesn't seem to make any sense to me. If I'm wrong I'm sure someone will correct me. And I shall be happily corrected... as I also could pick up a set of twin Mikuni Solex carbs for a fairly cheap price.

James, Yeah, I had already thought of them sitting quite far inside the flares but they shall have to do until I can afford some dished Watanabes for front and rear, 6.5-7" for the front and 8-9" for the rear would be my choice. If I had of bought bigger rims earlier (not that I can afford them) then I wouldn't be able to legally use them in NZ without the flares anyway so getting the flares first even if I have to put up with skinny wheels for a while is the only real option. :classic: I think Lachlan has got or is getting a proper set of C110 mirrors, he may let you use them if you ask nicely enough. Razor A proper GTR has gloss black fender mirrors anyway so you wouldn't want them to be chromed.

James, Sounds excellent, in your next contact with them, would you be able to maybe see if you can find out whether they'll send some over to little old me in NZ and if so, how much it'd be all up? Flares with the Watanabes would be fantastic that'd leave me with only having to get the chin spoiler as far as external cosmetics go. Ideally I want the proper boot spoiler too but mine will do for a while at least.

You can encode .avi's a number of ways I believe, however, this particular vid is in DivX format, thusly you need the DivX codec. Which can be downloaded here: http://download.divx.com/divx/DivX511Bundle.exe It's 5.2MB so if you're on dial-up it'll be a small wait.
