  1. The best car show for me is the one I'm currently or will be attending. So that puts Cleveland at the top of the list since that is where I'll be next. After that, who knows. On another note, I guess I'm different then most since I like to look at cars with the owners away so that I can really look at it with no distractions. For me, car shows are about the cars and thats what I want to see. I can talk anytime but car shows are few and far between where I come from.
  2. Mike, the number in the ad is Fred's. At the time that the ad was completed and the mag going to the printer, Fred did not have the new number yet so we ran with his personal home number. Leave a message and he will get back to you. Also, talk to Fred about the tile idea. He is open to all suggestions.
  3. "What's your idea of a Poker Run?" Heading to the nearest casino and playing texas holdum. Oh, and driving fast to get there.
  4. email me at arts@nissansportmag.com and I will get you the number of someone who should have the parts and will give you as good a deal as you will find.
  5. Was just wondering if anyone from here has heard of the event and plans to attend. Its the weekend of June 28th and 29th at Miller Motorsports Park. Suppose to have road racing, autocross, drifting and go-karting all open to the public along with organized racing events. I'm planning to hang with the UtahNissan guys who will have an area just for Nissan cars. BBQ and all. From what I understand if you have a club, they get in for free to display cars. Not sure if that option is still open. But you can sign up with UtahNissans to show your car with them and I think its free.

    top one is the locking one
  8. Just an FYI, the 15's and 16's come with a 0 offset. The 14's are like a +10. They were specifically designed for Toyotas and are not as good a fit for the Z.
  9. IBZINYA, PM me and I will get in contact with someone from Konig directly that should be able to help you find the rims you want. They are my wheel sponsor and I can call my contact there who should be able to get you the rims. Art
  10. Looking beyond that fact that some people will like it and some won't is the bigger picture: At least someone is making available another option for a bolt-on rim for an early Z. And since most of the rims we have to choose from are 3 or 4 versions of a Panasport and 3 or 4 versions of a slotted mag, Mesh and turbines, I like the idea of another choice.
  11. cool, just what I was looking for.
  12. Some of it peels off, but most is on pretty good. I was hoping there was a spray on and wash off way of doing this but i guess I'll have to start sanding. Yuck!
  13. quick question. What's the best stuff to take paint off of a air dam without hurting the air dam itself? Thanks
  14. I think I just earned the brain fart award for 2008. Couldn't figure out why the car was having such a hard time starting. I decided to put in a 280ZX distributor and guess what? The Z started right up. Thing is, the points dizzy was not the problem. turns out it was the plug wire that goes from the cap to the coil. The wire had slipped back so far into the wire end that it wasn't getting a solid spark from the cap to the coil and was not properly slotted into the cap. As soon as I pulled that wire I noticed black soot in the cap. Bingo, problem found. Figuring everything was brand new and I had just replaced everything during the tuneup, it never dawned on me to check and see if there was a good connection. I did push each wire down on the cap thinking that I had a good connection to start with. It always seemed to me that it wasn't getting spark. For good measure I had my wife hit me up side the head for not seeing this in the beginning. She actually thought she had done something wrong when she was helping me to get it started when it didn't want to.
  15. Thanks guys. I don't know how I missed the map. I drive straight down Chapman so I don't think I ever hit the tolls.
