Message Well it's finally Monday....and I know alot of people waited for today :) This is the replica of the
90-93 stock TT wing that everyone has been waiting for. The replica has been given the name Zeta.

Let me just start with the first picture. I took this picture myself when I went to check out how the mold is made,
the mold was made in SoCal and to acquire perfect fitment a Z32 hatch was used and also the wing that was mounted
on the hatch was availabe for reference. The wing is made in USA :) and ofcourse out of fiberglass.



The quality of the wing is awesome. When I got the wing I did not spot any flaws and when pre-fitted on the car it just sat on the hatch
snug without any problems or requiring any force. I remember reading alot of posts about alot of the replica wings not reaching to the end on the
sides of the hatch and that even the Kimanari wings had that issue. When my wing was per-fitted on the car the sides were pefectly lined up
with the sides of the hatch and everything else lined up correctly. In my previous post made about the wing, can be viewed here,
there was an argument about how the wing had an "overbite" sitting on the hatch when I took the pictures. That overbite was present
because on a none turbo 300ZX the installation of the wing requires the removal of the 3rd brake light panel which was present at that moment. Without
the 3rd brake light panel the wing sits nice and flush like the stock wing.

Anyways, the wait for a replica 90-93TT wing is finally over and all the Z owners with the rotting wing or just simply wanting that look can
acquire it from KurumaZ. I do not know anything about the pricing and I only know as much as that a GB will be announced very soon.

And finally here are the pictures you have been waiting for. I will add
better pictures on Wednesday when the car gets a wash and I can find a good spot for pictures. Thanks for your patience.






If you are wondering, the red TT in my garage belongs to member CrazyGreek (Joe).
I would like to also thank member CrazyGreek for all his help and knowledge. Without Joe
I would have had one hell of a time getting the wing painted and installed.

I have nightmares about that happening...I'd be the poor bastard you'd hear about on the news that gets killed by a softball-size chunk while spreading out my body over the hood and screaming "Nooo!" (Having a conversation about hail damage) - BradZ (FL) on March 25, 2005 at 9:56 PM

Tell your friend that you could take a dump, light it on fire and that would be hotter shit than his car. Probes suck, that's just all there is to it. - 300ZXpert (someday) on April 04, 2005 at 11:35 PM

p.s. You REALLY are on here at ALL hours! And I thought I was bad! :) - zmenon on August 16, 2005 at 3:06 AM
