Message Hi All,

ClubZ members in the Bay Area have seen it, but I've yet to show it off to the TT.net world. I'd like to introduce you all to CyberZ - the most technically advanced 300ZX Twin Turbo ever.

So what's next? Well, I'd like to hit the show circuit but I need a couple of things first:

1) A new paint job.
2) New seats.
3) New steering wheel.
4) Under car neon.

Plus, I want to win the SCC Ultimate Street Car Challenge for which I'll need:

1) New engine (700HP min.)
2) New suspension.
3) AP Racing 6 piston brakes.
4) Stand alone fuel, ignition, boost computer.
5) ESS Racing SAW Tiptronic transmission conversion.
6) About a million other small mods (See SCC Project Z).

Unfortunately, I don't have the funds to make all of this happen right now, hence the sponsorship request in my subject line. Does anybody have any experience with getting sponsorship? Who should I talk to? What can I expect from them? What do they ask for in return? Any help would be appreciated.

So, I hope you all enjoy checking out my Z. I'll be happy to answer any questions about how it was done. Thanks.

-Dave
