Jan 2013 Import Tuner!!!
 

So I'm pretty excited about this..

For those that don't know, my wife has a 78 Datsun 280Z the she's been fixing up and just got back from paint/bodywork about 3 months ago.. The car came out way better than I expected it would and its been blowing up on FB and random auto blogs here and there..

So a few weeks ago, a PhotoG friend of ours, Brad Sillars of ThePhotomotive.com pitched the idea of a his/hers old school / new school Z feature to Import tuner and they liked it.. We did a photoshoot and submitted it for the feature. Turned out it was the main feature and we are on the cover!!

Here's the cover shot.

Sweet jesus :yum:

Nice congrats!

That's awesome! Haven't picked up an Import Tuner in years, just may have to pick this up. Congrats.

I just grabbed it tonight from safeway. LOL. Was wondering if it was someone on here.

sicck!! that 370z amuse rolling shot is sexy as fckk. :yum:

I had a feeling that was you...I have the issue right in front of me. Both Z's are sick, and its awesome that she shares the same passion for the same platform. Congrats! Well deserved

You have a picture of your girl? I'm just curious to how she looks because I can't imagine my girl driving this as much as I would love her to.

Awesome job! Congrats!

I need a wallpaper sized image of picture 3... sweet!

Awesome!!! I love her Z (yours too)!

Man these pictures are all over Facebook and I've liked every single one of them. Congrats on the feature and the wife! Amuse looks killer in black!

Forget the cars who’s that babe!!!

Awesome shoot, and lovely 240. I can't wait to build one once I get a garage one day.

Congrats! I came across the pics floating around on FB auto blogs as well...I was saying to myself that guy is living my dream with both generation of Z's

Even better that its your wife who shares that passion too, congrats again and I'm going to look for that issue for sure! :tup:

I was reading that one the other day. They look sick. Congrats man.

Very Nice! I'll have to get a copy this week or so.

Sooooo cool! :tup: This is the Z that i remember growing up. Once the 370 came out, I had to get one...which I did. :tup:

Snail trail on your hood FTW!!!

Wow, that is a sick [Z] couple!

That 280 is hawt :yum:

Secret dream project: Buy a 280Z, gut it, drop in modern 370 motor and trans. Make everything fit and work.

Never going to happen, but nice to day dream about...

I've seen this photo set all over facebook lately. Congrats on the feature! Both cars look great.

Now those are some sexy Z's, congrats on the feature by the way
I'll make sure to pick one up :tup:

man nice 280z......love how you guys have same color !

Congrats OP

Both cars are done really well and are deserving of the coverage, love the wife's Z! :yum:

Too bad about the model on the cover, I have no idea what is going on with that photoshop of her skin :roflpuke2:

Thanks guys, I appreciate it... Ya Waizzz not sure what happened with the model.. the photoshop they did was not so great.. I think if you are in Cali they would have done a real shoot with the model in person, but not so here in Chicago..

Sweeeeet!:tup::tup::tup:

I want an old school Z so bad!

Which is more awesome? The wife or the z



The wife..

Love them both! And we chicks rock in Z's!

congrats and two great looking Z's,
I prefer the old school and dearly miss my 240

bump from the dead.. Import Tuner posted the online version of this article today in case anyone wanted to take a look.

:tup:

Fantastic Couple, Fantastic Zs..!!

I was wondering whose Z that was, nice shoot bro. And boy do I love me some Italian faith

Congratulations, and cool to see your Z in there Liquid_G. I remember when you and i both were deciding on Tanabe as our exhaust of choice, i got mine in 2012 but research is king.:tiphat:

I seriously like that Datsun 10x better than my Z (looks wise).

Wouldn't mind having something like that in the garage myself.

I have that mag. Thats from like 3 months ago. the old Z looks nuts

I saw both of your cars in person when I was down in Chicago for the show last fall. Both of your cars, I couldn't have respected anymore being black in color and how immaculate they are. My G37 was parked with Jared's at the end...everyone was calling them twiners.

I'll maybe see you this summer at a few shows. I'll for sure be down either with or without a 370....
