Bitchin' Rides!...

[JEZ 280ZX]

Hi,
Anyone see Bitchin' Rides on the Discovery Channel last night?

It's usually only US cars that they customize, but they had a customized 240Z,

with an RB25 engine in the workshop last night, with a claimed 600hp!

They were seen driving it down the road, giving it some beans!

Saw that, in the silver/grey ... Wow, that engine bay ...

Sure looked like it went well on the 'freeway' ... The owner's own car.

I quite like this show, Fast n' Loud has got a bit daft now ... This is still about the CARS. And their attention to detail is second to none. I prefer the car shows without the usual 'back story' ...

Felt sorry for the guy that damaged the paint on the "Cuda"!

So did I! Shows even the pros can do it. On the 240 I loved the bike-like gas cap that recessed itself back in the rear wing!
