Hi All. Here's a request to our Moderators. Can you please create a new Gallery section for some picture uploads that I would like to make? I would suggest that this could be under the heading "2004 EVENTS" with a subsection of "Nissan Style Week - The Racing Spirits" ( if that is not too long :classic: ). Basically this was the latest instalment of Nissan's round-Japan touring display of old race cars. It took place from 26th December 2003 through to 8th January 2004, and I visited it just after the New Year. The location was the NISSAN GALLERY SAPPORO, in the city of Sapporo naturally, which is the capital city of Japan's northern territory of Hokkaido. There was o…

I came back from a laboratory yesterday morning(9:30) to find my car backed into my brother's saab, which was a good 10 feet below where I had parked... I thought my emergency break must have broke and the car rolled back into it, so immediately went to move it to get the tension off his. then things are knocked around on the inside, and when I try to drive up, I getting grinding noises... when I looked at the front of the car, it looked like this and the front end of a white pontiac was in/beneath it. that pretty much tipped me off as to what had plowed it into the saab and up onto the sidewalk. turns out the driver is a 27 year old Jeremy AmericanHorse, and this…

Hi all, You may recall my inquries to auto tranny swaps and lightened flywheels. Well, I just got my car back from the shop with the following modifications; 77 5 speed, Maxima flywheel, and a 2.5" exhaust with a Dynamax muffler. I left the rear differential from the automatic tranny in place (3.54 gearing). All I can say is WOW!. It's a completely new car! I've already put a hundred and fifty miles on her today just driver her around and enjoying the new feel. It's amazing how different she feels after losing the automatic tranny. Here's some observations; Engine really revs freely and pulls strong with the lighter flywheel. No issues with stalling or revs droppi…

I'm looking at getting a torque wrench and need some information and oppinions to help me make my decision. First off, what is the torque range that Z cars have (i.e. 10-75 ft/lbs, etc.)? Does this make sense? I want to know what the lowest and highest torques are on a Z car? Also, what range do the majority of these lie in? Maybe that's helps explain what I'm looking for. Second, I'd like your oppinions on torque wrench styles. I have seen the ones that look like a socket wrench and the ones that look like some kind of "scale" which the guy called a spring torque wrench. Which is better? Which do you prefer and why?

I have been trying to get information about this car from zdriver.com and it seems as though there is nobody who "owns" that site; at least no on who admits to it and replies to emails. I love the color of the 240Z in this pic and want to know about the paint code. Does anyone here know anything about it? I'd like to see more pix of it and get the paint code if possible.
