Nice looking fitment - just flush

My mum just bought a Z32 300ZX. When the Aus delivered ones came out in 1990 she said "one day I'll have one" - 19 years later she got her 5sp Aus Delivered NA 2 seater. Nice car, she's let to yet me have a drive of it - however im not expecting much of a performer, but a nice summer cruiser with the targa off

you reckon? i like them cos they are genuine 3 spiece splitties and super light. gonna get them refurbished, the rim will polish up like a mirror.

Im open to suggestions for painting the centers

 

[Guest]

That looks a lot better. I see what your going for now. I like the ones you got on your Z in your sig block.

Um, weren't all the Aus delivered cars 2+2s?

yeha all aus cars were 2+2 , may aswell be a 2 seater tho, can only fit kids or small chicks in the back

I always assumed they were all the same? What is the external difference between the two, different roof shape?

different length wheel base, 12 or 13 inches i think, pretty much all panels are different from the front guards back. different mounting location of ABS unit, most control modules and other misc stuff.

the 2 seater has just got boot space behind the seats.

edit, ill take some pics, since i now own both

The silver wheels you put on the silver Zed remind me of old school Ferrari wheels for some reason lol
