   I want to install a roll cage in my Z. I looked at the MSA one and didn't like it. Then I found these S W Racecars can someone make some suggestions or recommendations. Thanks.

   Featured Z

   I was just wondering how often the featured Z changes located on the main page? I really like Kyle's car, it's been the featured Z since a least May, when I became a member. I think it should be once a month. Just my opinion.

   HELP!!!! I am going to look at a 73 240z tomorrow. When I asked him if it had flattops on it he said it had triple carbs. Didn't think to ask what brand. Any experience out there with these? He said it runs really well and is in mint condition. Any tips would be appreciated... thanks!

   Minilite question 1 2

   Hi all, When I purchased my first 240Z (may she rest in piece....) she came with a set of Minilite wheels. I still have these wheels and plan on putting them on the '72 240Z I recently purchased. Unfortunately, one of the wheels is "out of round" with a very slight flat spot. I've talked to several places that claim they can repair aluminum wheels. My question is whether the wheels I have are Aluminum or Magnesium. I ask this because many of the places that repair aluminum wheels won't/can't repair magnesium wheels. I can't tell by looking at them if they are aluminum or magnesium. I took them to a local tire shop today and they couldn't tell me either. I'm almost …

   Has any one had any issues with the cams sold by Motorsport? I have recently bought one and it has been nothing but hell. First, it took over four months to get here. The people that grinds them forgot to drill and tap the sproket bolt hole in the front of the cam and now the piece of $^!# went flat on me. Not the whole thing, but the first 3 lobes. I know the thing was getting oil and it was in adjustment. I installed it my self, with help from my boss who is a Nissan master tech so I know it was done right. I'm hoping to get my money back and go somewhere elese so if anyone has a good reliable sourse, please let me know. I am frothing at the mouth in an…

    Does anybody with good knowledge of 240Z's live near Moorpark, CA? From the maps, it looks to be slightly Northwest of LA, near Simi Valley. Anyway, I am looking into buying a 240 over there and need someone to check it out for me. If you know your Z's and could help out another Z nut, please let me know. TIA, Marty

    For any of you living near San Jose there's an 83 280ZX Turbo in the N San Jose Pick n Pull. The engine and tranny look complete but I tore the flange off the differential for my T5 swap. Just a heads up for anyone.
