It's teasing me, for sure. I can't wait to get these things mounted and drive my car. Picking it up tomorrow, I think?

Glad you found some 335's but I just really don't think those rims will look good on the Z... go ahead and send them to me I'll take good care of them for you :mrgreen:

I thought the Ferrari Daytona Replica on Miami Vice was done with a C3. That is how I have seen them in the past ( replicas at least)

my understanding was the white TR on Miami Vice was a true Ferrari

Edit:
notice the C3 seats int he Daytona replica from Miami Vice
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6f/Ferrari-daytona-rc.jpg

bit of info:
In the 1980s, the car gained new notoriety on the first two seasons of NBC's hit television series Miami Vice. The black car used in the series was a replica built on a Corvette chassis. Ferrari execs were not pleased that their company and one of their products was represented on TV by an imitation car. The Daytona replica was eventually destroyed on-screen and replaced with a donated Ferrari Testarossa, the company's newest model during the time.

One of these conversions showed up on "What's My Car Worth" or "Mecum" in this last year. As I recall $24k was the bid.

Mounted the Dymags today. Had to install a heim joint to gain more clearance for the sway bar bracket in the rear. Worked perfectly. Can't thank Carter enough for the wheel spacers and ZR-1 script center caps. Definitely has the meaty look now that the 335's are mounted on the 13" wheels. 315's on 11" up front.

MAN DOES THAT LOOK GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And just in time for BG :dancing You are going to like the V700 Kumho's I used that as a rain tire for years RR. They tend to get a little greasy in the dry on the edge ;)

Really looking good Brett :cheers:

Very, very nice... however I think they are going to cost you even more money! I foresee a brake upgrade in your future...

Enjoy and I hope to see it in BG.

Brett,
Looks great and looks like the spacers worked out just right ;)

How about a money shot from the rear to show those meats off. Great work :cheers:

I may need a set for my 95 LT1 Coupe... It's a rear mount single turbo and I plan on putting some 315's on her...

How much you get for them?

Cheers,
Ron

Your car looks pretty sweet!
