Im thinking about having the seats done and laying down some new carpet and installing a new stereo. I like the idea of using 6 spoke 280zx non turbo wheels, or i might just do a 300zx 5 lug and brake swap and use the 300zx TT wheels i have sitting in the garage. 225/50-16 in the front and 245/45-16 in the rear! God maybe by then ill be hooked on the car and ill end up keeping it. Then ill have a "business" car to drive to the track and use as a tool to persuade potential new clients, or maybe ill just track the damn car and not ever work trackside photography ever again. That would be bad though, maybe ill just fix it up and sell it to some wannabe drifter kid for 7k

Sam you know i also have a 1990 300zx in the garage with a full TT swap sitting next to it, right?

if you ever come across another 240, let me know... So-Cal seems to be the mecca for these cars.

I'm tossing around the idea of buying my friend's wrecked 240 (trust me, she's definitely a write off), and putting the powertrain in my Datsun 510.
