Could this be a good time for the club to consider starting a register of classic Zcars? This would not only be confined to cars currently registered, but should include cars that had been sighted in various stages of breakup. Maybe we might be able to find out how many Z's are left drivable, WIP or else for prosperity? What do others think?

Now THIS is how you design a new car with a bit of retro styling and make it an attractive car! Guess it might be time for Nissan to start thinking about hiring a couple designers from Ford. This is the best looking Mustang in nearly 30 years if it goes into production. Hopefully they did as good a job on the interior as they did the exterior, which has been one of the biggest downfalls of the Mustang since the 80's. Too bad Nissan could meld the old with the new in the 350Z the way they did with this car.

I was looking at different types of garage floor paint and I've seen a variety of brands and prices. The cheapest starts at about 18 dollars a gallon from Home Depot all the way to a 250 dollars for a kit that is supposed to do a 2 1/2 car garage. U Coat it . I don't mind spending the 250 if it is worth it. Has anybody used something else? Could you share your results/comments? Thanks

Below you will see the results of the cam gear bolt backing itself off. I've been told that this is not such an uncommon problem, espically in a motor that has been put together recently. This is a strange sich because this engine has about 20k since being built. So do yourself a favor and check that bolt!!! Anyway, lucky that I was only doing around 40 and not running 'er hard, the end result as you will see is a bit of contact between the valves and the pistons. The pistons came through ok, they are forged. It has actually been an ok experience tearing this motor down, I really wanted to know what was inside. Turns out the cam is a Schneider Racing cam, which I n…

If your voltage regualtor goes out, will the alternator read as if it is not charging? I think that my voltage reg went out, it has been showing signs for a while now. The alternator is new and suddenly it shows no activity... Thanks! Brian
