PARTS: ZCG Heat Shield on Tobi’s 280ZX

We love to see our products being installed and used on client cars. Tobi is running our ZCG Heat Shield in his 280ZX!

 

Close-up of the ZCG Heat Shield, this piece is serial #00276:

 
 

Tobi is a relatively new S130 owner and started modifying it in no time!

“I got the car in the fall of 2020, it definitely needed some love, but it came with a N42 head so that was a big plus for me! While browsing through Instagram I saw a lot of guys in Japan would switch from EFI to a DCOE setup, while some told me it would be a bad idea, I loved the sound of a carb’d L28 too much. I got to work on the conversion during the winter months of 2020 and went with triple-Webers on a Canon intake manifold. While I had the car apart I added T3 front and rear suspension, MSA victory spoiler, and a set of MSA twice pipes. I was super excited when I fired it up for the first time.”

 

During the summer he  took it to car shows around town and enjoyed ripping it around, but he was having some clearance issues with the heat shield, so he purchased our Z Car Garage Heat Shield:

“I couldn’t have been happier. The build quality on the shield when I unboxed it was amazing and it went on my manifold like butter, it also fixed my clearance issues too. My future plans for the car are to save up for some  Z Car Garage CV Axles and a 240sx gearbox swap in hopes of taking the car to the track.”
