Searsgremlin Posted October 24, 2012 Share #1 Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) I got my z almost 6 months ago since then i have made afew changes. heres a bunch of pics of what i have done so far. i will add when i do more to it. this is when i first got the car. i got it from boston mass, it came from texas so has no rust. when i got it it had carb problems and would not go past 70 on flat high way and would not go past 30 up hills. I fixed all the dry rotted hoses first, then added the body parts and it needed new struts badly so i ended up lowering it in the process. at the same time i replaced the break booster and master cylinder. i also fitted a 240z grille in. i changed out some interior parts from a parts car. then i traded some parts for a header. once i had a spot in the garage i pulled of the header and carbs. rebuilt cleaned and painted everything. also i ported the intake a very little bit. after that it ran perfect. when i pulled the old header off a few of the studs were broken off and about half the bolts were loose. and the gasket had silicone on it! but long story short i was able to fix it all. the most current pics are the ones with the slotted mags. i got those off a 240z parts car i got, i was just waiting on my lugs. im 16 and this is the car i have spent the most time on. i've done all the work by myself. i love driving it, especially to school kids always ask me what kinda car it is and give me complements. thanks for looking!
