Glove box replacement?
I'm afriad I had (and still have) the same reaction as Carl and others. If anyone is going to put in the effort to remanufacture ANY rare or NLA part, we should support it by purchasing his/her product and not undermining the effort to save a possible buck.

No correction needed Tanny. You got it right the first time.

Offset Question
Well you Can't expect me to actually do rithmatic, do you? You know I aint got 40 fingers and toes! I know some. The adds and the takes-a-ways and even some of the gizindas (4 gizinda 8, 2 times). I'd know more but, in school, Elle-May Clampet was always wisperin in my ear bout the swimin hole. Makes it hard fer a man to think bout anything except multiplication.

Bob Bondurant
Is that Bondurant giving the Thumbs up? I've never seen him. I know that Les built both cars for him, and did a fantastic job.

Offset Question
I misspelt. My bad. it was suppose to read "If you put a 35mm spacer on a +40 wheel, it would be effectivly a +15 wheel when you finished." Instead of "or"

Offset Question
For 14 and 15 by 7 inch wide wheel on a 240Z, offset of 0 to +15mm is best fitment. that means the mounting plane (that rests against the hub surface) is dead center in the middle of the wheel (for a 0 offset) or 15mm outboard (moving the wheel center inboard). The Hondas, and most FWD cars, use a 35~40 offset. If you tried to use this wheel on the Z, the back of the tire would be hard against the strut tower. To change a +35mm wheel to 0 offset, you would need a spacer 35mm thick. If you put a 35mm spacer on a +40 wheel, it would be effectivly a +15 wheel when you finished. By the way, on 16 and over wheels, a +15 offset is optimal as a 0 will rub the outer fenders on bumps. So if you bought some 17X7 +40 4X100 SSR's, the spacer offered by Modern Motorsports would be just about perfect.

Bob Klemme has done the Roadster community a service by returning 00004 to her original livery and fitment. I have to applaud his efforts. I'm sure it was a lot of time and a great, giant chunk of money!

West Coast National Winner
Why? This IS the Arizonia Z Car entry, that's why. BTW, I spoke to him in length in re his 4 barrel conversion. He swears by it and says that others, who have had troubles, did not set it up per his instructions. He also claims close to 30 MPG
