[izzer]

I love the z!:drool I'm saving up for a 240z

[!Tigger]

nice cars.

[donjalapeno]

z :drool:

[oldsnail]

nice 240z, not really feeling the flat black FD

[asahai69]

whats under the hood of the datsun?

[OTG-ZR2]

^ one crazy motor if its the car I'm thinking about...

[tofu1413]

isnt that FD on sale on CL..?

[monkeywrench]

wow beautiful Z, wish I had the money to have one of those

[boatcaptain]

hmm im not sure if that is the same one from oz design,the one i saw had a rb26dett

[JoshuaWong]

old school japanese cars so sexy :drool

[PDA_86]

wow beautiful Z, wish I had the money to have one of those

Buy mine, haha.

[donot521]

friggin sweeeet

[124Y]

I've seen that Z a couple of times in Richmond. Hot damn!
Also saw it at Rise Auto Salon 2 days ago.

[zilla510]

FD is not for sale. He'd get rid of his gf before he gets rid of that car...lol.
As for under the hood, you guy's are gonna have to wait until the Sausage Fest ;-)
And for those who know what's under the hood, please don't give it away, thnx :-)
And yes, this is the car from Rise Auto

[hk20000]

Does your bro live on St. Albans? Seen it many times going into a complex.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

digging the FD

[RE-Jo]

Are those S2000 seats in the Z? Did you happen to get a good deal for them?

[Delerious]

Dear god I love bumperless s30's. So damn hot on the rb-r's too.

[jmvdesign]

you got any better shots of the Z?

[Qmx323]

oh lord, loving that Z

[!Yaminashi]

I really like those wheels on the FD

[zilla510]

Didn't really get a chance to take solo shots of the Z.
It does have S2000 seats and I think he paid $300 for the pair.

[J____]

that looks like a tasty motor in the Z :D i need one in mine

[DiiCii]

wow that Z looks soo nice, diggin the fd as well:D just curious, did you used to live by bear creek elementary in surrey? i used to see a 260z over there alllll the time, just thought maybe it could've been this one, since it's white too haha. lovin that Z, keep the pics coming:D

[FerrariEnzo]

should be blue..

and get a custom plate "Devil Z" :)

[Walperstyle]

That Z is amazing. You could have done some better angles of the cars. That brick backdrop is amazing, but its unfortunate you had the camera angle tilted like 40 degrees. I hate having to tilt my head to see the subject.

I would take the Z back there by itself (nothing against the FD) and do a proper shoot against that brick background. Photoshop some tone into the picture. Maybe focus on back and white too. Its a perfect car for B+W photography.

edit: make sure to take your licence plates off when you are taking pictures, especially the front plate. Also, it looks like your brother spilled gasoline down under the gas cap. Clean that up too.

Here is a little Photoshop adjust I did just for the hell of it.

[zilla510]

Thanks for the compliments!
Yes that is gasoline and it needs a new gas cap. It's still a work in progress. As for my
photography skills, sorry just learning as I go and I don't have much experience in photoshop.
The pic above looks sick, thanks for the edit.

The previous owner I believe used to live around that area in Surrey.
I will definatley go out solo and do some more pics and learn how to use my camera.
If anybody with a camera is interested in going out with me and taking some pics of the car, pm me and we can get together and rip around the city :-)

[zilla510]

By the sound of it, seems like you know what's under the hood...hehe

[Phil@rise]

Nice shots! Zilla are you and your bros coming out today to check it out?
Theres a 90% chance it'll be done. The bugs list is shrinking by the minute. I'll be tossing the alarm in after lunch.
I put a couple dozen k's on it today so theres a few hundred more richmondites that have heard the hellfire from under the hood of AkimotoZ

None taken. It's getting body work and new paint in April. Gonna enjoy it for the summer :D

1exotic, those are really nice pics. I'm an amateur just learning and I know my

[BMW135i]

Mint ass S30. Need more pics of that S30 :D

[tofu1413]

vancouver's... akuma no Z.


HAHA

[Mrtemp]

Nice car! Did you buy it off of a Korean guy in Surrey by anychance? The car used to belong to my best friend's brother. I'm glad to see someone is taking good care of her!

Sadly I have a 240z that's being neglected in my parents garage right now....

[Sgt_Koopa]

I think I bought it from Charlie or something like that in Surrey. Besides the bodywork and paint, everything else has been improved or completely swapped out such as engine, differential, suspension, brakes, reinforced chassis, etc etc. :thumbsup:

[JD¹³]

Sick Z! Looks like an RB.... :p

[falcon]

That FD is the reason I didn't buy JDM. And the reason the prices of real FD's (LHD USDM/CDM) cars have crashed. Broke ass looking ghetto car.

Lol....go shit somewhere else, no one asked for your opinion. And I'm sure that FD could beat your car any day!!

I prefer left hand drive too but the price is right on the RHD. And ghetto? I think not. Still a beautiful car.

The Datsun S30, Acura NSX, and Mazda FD all have one thing in common. A timeless design that was sexy back then, is sexy now, and will be sexy 30 years from now.

This car hasn't been in Surrey in 3 years. I bought it from an Asian brother in Surrey about 3 years ago.

not sure about datsun..





I think NSX and Supra are at the top of the list.

I think R34 also.

If flat black with sunken gross wheels is beautiful to you... then sure I guess.

Every FD you posted there is LHD and looks hot. I never said FD's are ghetto, just this one in particular.

Oh my bad, I thought you said all!

PS. The bottom BB FD with the Scoot hood is a RHD :)

[falcon]

You know I owned one for 3 years, right? ;)

Ahh.. and yes that car is from Kelowna. It's hard to tell because that one actually looks nice. Usually all the RHD ones you can tell from a mile away because they are beat.

[jpark]

Fd's are So hot especially when its Lhd :droo:

The timeless lines in the original datsun z car are still emulated in the current z car.
Why because even the current designers know the past designers penned some of the most seductive lines with the s30.

[DoseONE315]

Daammn, I never thought I would see this car again.
Ran into it parker near west 4th and than at MCL a few weeks later
with the japanese flag on the hood seemed like it was about to get a nice ballin bath.
This Z is a great example or how good these cars can look and this one especially looks modern.

Those are wicked awesome photos!!! I love it! Awesome stuff

[XplicitLuder]

way to bump a huge ass old thread haha but very nice pics (never seen this thread before actually :P ) does that FD by any chance get sold to someone in alberta? i saw one that looked just like it today but it had alberta plates

[tofu1413]

that white Z is a beast.......


subaru STi/ Lancer evo? :fuckthatshit:

[JSALES]

I remember talking to the owner of that white Z

[Benz_05TSX]

Matte white and Matte black... NICE!!! Should throw in a Matte grey in there :troll:

[Cman333]

I do believe the owner wants to sell the car. :(

[TurboFC3S]

The white Z? For how much

[Stylistics]

^probably over 9000 :troll:

[JSALES]

When I last talked to the owner of the Z, he was maybe looking to sell for 17K

[Cman333]

I actually have no idea how much he wants. I was trying to talk him into keeping it.

It's an awesome car. He's on RS some times, I'm sure he'll pop into this thread sooner or later.

Here's a little more detail on the car for those interested.

Unfinished Man 1974 Datsun 260Z – RB25DET - Unfinished Man (http://www.unfinishedman.com/unfinished-man-1974-datsun-260z-rb25det/#more-3969)

datsun:sweetjesus:

[JSALES]

I wonder if the owner of the Z lives around Main street. My friend said she saw a nice white Datsun Z parked in a garage and almost dropped her panties. I have a feeling she is referring to the same car :fullofwin:
