James L is from San Francisco and visited ZCG to get Stillen intakes and an UPREV tune. This is one of the first Q60’s we had our hands on:

Z Car Garage has been an authorized Panasport dealer for many years and we love the way they look and perform on our vintage cars. Back in February we posted an ad for a few remaining sets of 16″ Panasports and Eric T grabbed some for his Datsun 240z. Below: Our original Facebook post showing Ms. ButterZ running the new wheels, and Eric’s Z:

Panasport has changed its casting design over the years and this latest 16×7 “FZ” model replaces the popular/long-running “FS” model. Obvious changes are the “panasport Z” engraving on the inner barrel, rounder spokes and an extremely bright polished lip. Eric’s old wheels and the new FZ:

Wheels were shod with Bridgestone RE-11 tires, our favorite sticky street tire:

We also freshened the hydraulics with new clutch master/slave cylinders and a brake bleed:
