1. Dominic Le's SR20-Powered Datsun 240Z
Anyone who knows me knows I'm a sucker for a Datsun 240Z, so thanks to my personal bias, this Datsun takes the #1 spot for me. As one of my dream cars, the 240Z has a special place in my heart, and Dominic Le's take on the platform is one of my all-time favorites. Combining two of my favorite things, Le was one of two SEMA exhibitors to stick an SR20DET into a Datsun Z. What makes Le's project all the more impressive to me is that most work was done in the garage. The custom drive-by-wire SR20 is surrounded by titanium bits - even the bolts holding everything together are titanium, which makes the details a pleasure to pour over. The suspension is made up of billet components, and the interior is full of homemade carbon fiber parts. Perhaps one of the car's coolest details is the red reflective carbon fiber front bumper and splitter, which Le also made himself at home. All that time running Chasing Js has certainly paid off in skillsets. Adding the perfect finishing touch to blend old school cool with new age design is a set of Work Equip 40s in a gold finish that works well with the Datsun's red exterior. Hell yeah, Dominic.
