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. CyberZ is a result of over a year of planning, developing, building and testing various components to create a one-of-a kind audio/video/telematics system driven entirely by a custom built general purpose computer. Here is a list of mods that went into building this system: Stage III (Intake, Exhaust, ECU) Sway Bars Veilside Body Kit Custom Welded Roll Bar with Hand Stitched Leather Upholstery 18" Work Equip 3-Piece Wheels Samsung Syncmaster 570 TFT 15" LCD with Capacitive Touchscreen ASUS K7M Motherboard AMD Athalon 600Mhz CPU 45GB 7200RPM HD 128MB RAM D-Link DWL-500 802.11b Wireless Networking Card Creative SoundBlaster Live!

For more pictures, check out my members page on the ClubZ website: http://www.clubz.org/cgi-bin/member/DaveFranklin.asp 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
