Gitty...can say that again, ball rolling...really?? I am serious about this kit, and by the looks of it not alone here. Still without distributor this means nothing. Per prev post I have spoke with Z-1 need to find company that can get these over here. GB idea broken down shipping sounds good to me would be pricier but still in comparisson to other kits and for love of this one well worth it to me. Time to get down to some solid numbers btw wtf is this post cmon man taking up bandwidth

LETS DO THIS, best bet is to have board member that can translate assist us with this and pricing and such, I agree we should wait til minel gets product and can verify quality. How bad *** would that be though to be the only select few with this bad *** kit in the state....can you say ENVY

I actually like the rear wing. It reminds me of a supra version for the 350z. Since it's not right to stick a supra wing on it. This is is much more proper.

mdracer76- add yourself to the list if you are interested in our potenetial group buy to help reduce shipping costs. This would be good for you too as I am in Arlington. Look a few posts back for the list if interested.

What you need to do is find out what the Shipping sizes are , that is what I have asked them, meaning 2m by 4m by 1m and where they are shipping it from , then phone UPS of FEDEX and ask them how much the freight will be you are also looking at taxes and if any DUTY charges as well. I am near Toronto and I am interested in buying these kits as well and these are some of the things I am working on..

I think I found a link to the Great Britain distributor......on the site they don't list the 350Z. but the 300ZX.......I'll look, I think I saved the link.....

BUT....I do like the HUGE caliper!
Not sure I'd want to have to explore the combination of pads to make this truly WORK. Different leading versus trailing pads. Then again, I would love to be the one to test the possibilities!
A day at Blackhawk Farms cooking brakes & shreading tires does have it's appeal...........

Speed-racing mentioned he would give a better price several posts back. Were still waiting to see this special price, Im assuming this price on top of a GB to save on shipping will be quite feesable.......

I have mixed feelings on this kit.
I love the skirts and the lip.
Not too sure how I feel about the spoiler. I like it at some angles, and not on others.
I REALLY dislike the bumper. It might just be how the exhaust tips are pretty much encompassed around by the mesh and the sub-par "cut job" of the mesh. I personally dislike any real obvious mesh like that on pretty much any car.
I'm also not too much of a fan of fiberglass, i'd perfer poly.
Other than those gripes, it looks fantastic.

thanks for the fast reply, i must have missed it.. anyway i assume they are avail. for the 350. as list prices are only for the 300zx. i'll ring em up on monday.
as far as the kit goes. yeah yeah i know its Italian, rare and beautiful. however it seems to be pretty much unattainable too. if your itching to burn 2k check out the espirtR2 kit. for all those in love with the rear on this Italian.
