Depends what you're looking for.
Z parts are rare on Okinawa. Around Tokyo, they're much more common.
Will have a lot of pics to post in the future when I attend the usual Daikoku-futo meets.

So after that whole rain ordeal I had at our cruise rally, I decided to come up with some ideas as to what I wanted to do to protect the air filter from getting wet from my vented hood. I like the ARC cover but can't justify paying $700+ for something that I would only use for when it's raining. Looked at some other products as well but again, to expensive.
Here is my problem;
and here is what I've come up with, I'd get a spare Brake Cover and more than likely wrap it with CF and yes the hood does close just fine.
Now remember this would only be a temporary thing for when it's raining out and after looking over the cover I can easily add some special clips to it to mount it for a quick assembly/deassmbly...
What do you guys think????

It actually forms around it better than you think. The pics don't do to much justice other than giving the idea/concept of it. Also again this would only be used when it's raining out, not a everyday thing. I pretty much never drive the Z in the rain but there will be those occurances that will require it. Ex. Zdayz/last cruise we just had..
hey homies, sold my g a couple weeks ago... picked up a much more reliable and practical car. not as fun as rwd, but it's what i needed and wanted right now.
so....... i have my track setup wheels for sale. they have hankook RS3's on them, in pretty good shape, the wheels are slightly scratched around the lugs, but nothing bad. I dont have a pic of them, since they're in storage in bloomington, but i am looking to get about 1500$. the tires alone were 1100 and are about 7 auto-x events in. they're suuper sticky, i love them. Rota SVN 18". I think this is the setup, but i can confirm.

You might have seen these already, but they could probably help as a line of defense. From the sources I've read they help a lot with your problem.

Yep looked at those as well
I wish I had a Charizard, I only have a Charmeleon..... Wow I feel like a nerd.....Well might as well say it, I have all of the original Pokemon including the 151st Pokemon Mew which you can only get from the nintendo company on my Gameboy game. They even give you a plaque with his ID number that no one else will have.
