   Pulled the engine on Presidents Day!

   Spent Monday afternoon taking the engine out. Still need to remove brackets, etc. Plan to take it to the engine shop in about 3 weeks. Also still need to remove misc items from engine bay before I can take the chassis to the paint shop, probably late next week. Once the chassis & engine are gone, I'll be able to clean-up the garage and organize the parts!

   Does a “Numbered Z� have additional value?

   In your opinion if a manufacturer identifies a car with a production number plate does it provide any additional value? As an example the 10th Anniversary Z and the new NISMO Z have small plates that said they were car # XX. If you are either a short term owner or a long term collector does having a production sequence number on the car impact your buying intention or ownership of one of them? All comments are welcome.

   It was excited to see a very clean 240Z on the cover of Grassroots Motorsports Magazine when I pulled it out of the mailbox yesterday. April 08 issue shows a nice Z on the cover, but no Z content in the article, just a cool cover shot. Thumbs up on the cover photo!

   Not really Z related but has some videos of some cool cars. http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/video/video_categories.shtml?cat=30494 Check out the Mazda Cosmo and the Honda SM600 (has a brief mention of the 240z). There is even a video of the new Knight Rider cars for those of you following that thread. Now if they could just get rid of the annoying Saab commercials before the videos play... -Mike

    Old School Nurburgring ^_^

    Thought some you might like to see this old film, Especially some of you GT4 players like me, the backgrounds and scenery looks completly different but you'll still reconize what sections of the track your on if you know the road course enough Think it's the 1970's course or earlier, maybe some one will chime in. Wish it was in the game though :cheeky: ~Z~

    This is my third tattoo and I've been dying for something Z related. (The guy who did the tattoo was so excited about my car. He had to call his girlfriend and tell her about it.) Sorry for the aweful picture, but all I had was my camera phone. So this is what I did last night. It's still a little swollen and stuff, but you can see it pretty well. My friends think I'm stupid but hopefully you guys will understand. This is the one of what I hope to be many.

    For Valentine's Day, I bought myself an Infiniti 1 2

    After serving me on a daily basis so very well for the last two years, I figured I should give my S130 a break. Alas, in order to do this, I needed to find myself a car to drive on a daily basis (and to replace my gas-hog, semi-blown engine Montero). Craigslist to the rescue. I found a dealer in Greensboro, NC who was willing to do a swap, and he was willing to drive the 4.5 hours for my Mitsu sight unseen. I suggested a trade, and after hearing what he had on the lot, I chose the 2001 Infiniti I 30. I know there are several members on the site who have one, and if there are any issues that I should look into, please let me know. Anyway, this car is much less a Valen…
