We love to see clients installing our Z Car Garage Big-Brakes on their Z Cars! This is Mike’s 1972 240Z with original matching L24. It was bone-stock and sitting for 16 years outside until he rescued it year and a half ago. Mike is a professional automotive paint technician and this Z will be restored with correct 115 metallic blue paint.
Client’s often ask if their wheel will clear the ZCG Big-Brakes and we offer a a caliper template to help with fitment. Sometimes it’s best to physically test fit the actual wheel desired. Mike sent us a pretty rad Star Shark wheel from Washington and we confirmed clearance of the Big-brakes:
“I chose the Colin Project Star shark wheel 14×8-13 for some JDM nostalgia, the look, and a bit more aggressive stance. They are wrapped in BF Goodrich 225/60r14 tires. I very much wanted to upgrade the brakes with the Z Car Garage Big-Brake Kit after seeing Larry Chen’s Ole Orange Bang done by Rob and ZCG team. Sent Rob a wheel for an accurate verification of fitment, and Huzzah!! They Fit! Very, very excited about this. You can’t just put any brake kit on this car. This is a kit that you can have confidence in because the research and development has been done.”
