Wide body kit???

[speedyfaron]

OK I am sure that I am not the first person to ask about this, but I will ask anyway. Does anyone know if the wide body kit is still available for the older Z. (1974 260Z) I think they really make the car look that much more mean, and its gotta make it easier to keep it clean when you put on the really wide meats. Also if anyone has ever done them, can you give me a quick how to, just so I can think if I want to keep looking. Everyone has been so helpfull!
THANK YOU!

I am sure a custom body shop can mold you up one for a fair price. But as for finding one for sale now, not even sure where to start looking.

and thats stupid and a person that has a lot of time and money on their hands!!!

a little side note, that site that was posted earlier...that has a convertible Z31. its ugly as sin but you ahve to give it some originality points!!!

and its funny because i just seen a porsche 944 turbo in teh paper that needed body work and minor motor work. well i hate the back end of the 944 because of that huge bubble for a window. but the convertible looks sharp. well i was actually researchign what it takes to turn a 944 coupe into a convertible. i dont think it would be that hard. nab you a deck lid from a convertible in a junk yard and order you the cloth top and whip out the bondo and hack saw!!!

I dont know if I like any of them. I just want the widest rear wheels & low profile sticky tires I can stuff on this car. HaHa

nothing like taking a hacksaw to the porsche

944 turbo? i thought all the 944's were na.... the 93's boasted the most hp from an n/a 4 cylinder at 240hp... which i think was passed by the s2000? either way it's a huge displacement for a 4 banger, makes more tq than some v6's

nope 944 offered a turbo...im not sure on the power ratings but i know it runs low-mid 14's stock so it must be up there. even the N/A as the 2.5L but i dont think its anywhere near 240hp...

[DeleriousZ]

ahhh my bad... it was the 968 that replaced the 944 that had the beefy 4 banger.... 3.0 Litre 4 cylinder!!! DANG!

That's one mean conversion. All you need now is a tuned, high compression, short stroking alloy 6L V-10 under the hood.
