Just fitted air dam and boot lip now off to get new carpet sick of the musty smell after 17 years in storage.

Were you racing one of your Cars at the Test day last Friday ?

My boss ( with the Moore Stephens markhams Car ) told me there was a Rapid little Datsun Z getting right stuck into it, he seemed pretty impressed.

280zx Looks Great there Gman.

Yip I was there trying to get that rb30 powered s30 of lewis lows to go a bit faster now it sounds like a f1 car but still not as fast as the L28.

I caught up with Lewis last week and saw the Lynn Rogers built machine. Love the RB head on the L6, very tricky to do I've heard.
Some car that, sounded bloody loud!!! Lucky the exhaust exits the passenger side I'd say as I doubt that the dB would be legal otherwise.

I'm not sure of the race category it is able to run in as with that head on there, he won't be able to run in stock of course, that leaves what?

A well prepared S30.

Not a Lynn Rogers motor any moor that was a bit of a disaster.Car run 90 dbl on the track and it can run in the sports and gts it doesn't get turned away from classic advents because the RBis no faster than a good L28?
