I did it when the urge struck. Usually when I was oiling it. Yo have you felt the leather in a G35? I would ride in that naked on the daily son...

Im actually trying to get G35 seats for my 240. Or M45 seats with those BOSE speakers in the shoulders.

Nice.. Good luck with her.

Check it out


BTW, if you want the giant sized versions to read from, PM me your E-mail, and I'll send em over.

Im gonna qoute something from the book: "The original 240Z is undoubtedly the most sought after today. Later 260s and 280s were more luxurious, but are also heavier and less exciting to drive. Extremely desirable, but rare, are the lighweight Z432 (Japan only) and 240ZG specials."

I have a 280Z myself that'll be receiving a VH45DE... with a turbo down the road.

The 280's and such were actually heavier due to added items like the bigass bumpers and other various pieces like that but most importantly, the frame rails were much longer making it much more structurally rigid. If you caged a 240Z it would probably do very well but, you want to get the proper cage. Some cages will do nothing for chassis rigidity and some will. www.hybridz.org is a good place to check out for all of that stuff.
