battery hookup
According to the website, Radio Shack is supposed to carry DeOxit. Everybody go there and get TWO cans to the DeoXit- 100 spray Even if you have to order some. They should get smart and stock it already with all those useless "tuner cleaners." WExcept the DeOxit isn't useless.

Ferrari 250 Gto-cabriolet- Rebuild
For US$100,000 you can get a totally hand-built (exact) replica of a 250 GTO with the birdcage frame, aluminum body, V12, etc. That is definitely a replia (but kind of nice) with a V8 engine. You can get a turnkey replica weith Z chsasis, L24/L26/L28 engine for $30,000 DELIVERED. $50,000 TOPS, if you are filty rich, AND on the same drugs the seller uses. BUT, this is "America" where you buy low, sell high.

Tire Size?
Thanks Nate, good one. The tabular data & graphics were cool. Too bad I couldn't save it all on my hare drive. Maybe I'll come up with something later. thx

Tire Size?
Good idea- It would be nice to have a chart of tire sizes v. circumference, so you could pick a tire that's not going to throw off your speedometer much. Either that or a formula to calculate circumference. thx

B&M wants to borrow your car!
No offense to Enrique, but I think he'd make a good politician (j/k Enrique) I agree that the mechanism looks to be complicated, and I've been working about it for a LONG time with little success, which is why I think it would be a good idea at this time to hand the idea off to the people that are better at it.

rear hatch lock problem
Make sure that the little arm isn't loose on the lock barrel. Maybe you can pull off the retaining clip from the lock, then take it off to clean & fix. Check that the screw threads are well-fitting. Then maybe a new screw to hold the arm on, with a little thread-locker. Then just check the alignment of everything & adjust as necessary. I replaced my lock totally with one from an MGA, which has a fingerpull on it. Looks euro-cool. If you have to push hard to close the hatch, does that mean the rubber seal is flat? Maybe a fresh seal is in order for you.

Ballast resistor on the 280Z
No...... JZM was saying that the ecu eliminates the ballast resistor, and controls the power to the coil electronically.
