 I've made some progress and thought I'd share some pictures.I haven't had any luck posting them (files are too large) so I thought this would be a good way to show them. I'll add to the album as I make headway and let you know when I have new pics. I have some parts for sale (SU setup,header,new 15in wheels and tires,built l20b,front hubs & calipers) if anyone is interested I can add pics of them also , well , let me know what you think.

I still don't see any pictures in your photo gallery. I'd like to see what you're doing to the L28 truck.

 I'm running 280z front hubs , 4x4.5 bolt pattern to match the 280zx rear axle , the upgrade won't work with truck hubs , the rotors won't bolt up and the offset can't be corrected with a spacer , it's allready too far towards the inside. Don't know of any drum upgrades. When I have some time I'll see if I can come up with a caliper/rotor combo that will work with the truck hub.

zeed, is your exhaust pipe really as close to the fuel cell as it looks? i love how you did the twin tips out of the license plate hole.

Yes the exhaust is near the fuel cell but there is a heat sheild between the two
