    I got it Wednesday jerbear. Thanks so much, you gave me FAR more than I could have ever used! I used the plate from retrosound. The ABS you were kind enough to send me was too thin. I tried to cut it with my dremel, but it vibrated a bit too much to get a smooth straight line.. however, I think if I use a sharp razor blade, I can make a USB plug holder that will look nice in my glove box next to my antenna switch. So I will definitely get some good use out of what you sent me. Thanks again!

    You WILL NOT REGRET getting your carbs done by Ztherapy. Not one bit. Really improved my mid and upper RPM,a swell as gave me a rock solid idle. The video spells out exactly how to use the car sync tool. After you get the carbs hooked up double check all your vacuum lines are good. The new SU's are so tight, they respond to the slightest adjustment. Make sure all the vacuum lines are pristine so you give yourself a fighting chance to get those carbs dialed in. I think it took me about 5 minutes to do the job once the engine was warm. After I drive it a few months, I will probably just do a double check, but watch the video several times, and get acquainted with every adjustment screw and its location, it will become like second nature after a while. PS.. I have to add this, DO NOT forget to remove your fuel bowl vent caps... haha

    Ask and you shall receive.. Remember, Before: After: Before: After, Notice the new knobs they gave me. Looks very period correct: I consider this mod to be almost a wrap. I think if I get some of those rub on decals from the hobby store, I can duplicate the font for VOL/POWER, and TUNE. Should not bet that hard. I may try that. If I do, then I will update this thread. IF not, then its been fun and I am very happy with the results.

    I have to add a continuation to this. Retrosound just sent me a VERY nice package in the mail. The included a new plastic front cover and they included a 70-73 datsun template. They also sent me newer control knobs that really look like they belong in a Datsun. Kudos to great customer service
  5. Hey buddy, I just finished the same paint job, but yours is just a hair better than mine. You did a much better job on the font on the numbers. I did choose the same wheels though haha, they are the closest thing to the 4 spoke ones I could find. What I am the most impressed with is your ability to take the picture. I have not explored that in forza 3 yet. VERY nice lighting. Anyway.. my user name is: relentlesleming I would LOVE to see your car. I will send you mine if you like and we can compare notes. I have her tuned into a pretty respectable D class car now. She is a joy to drive and push hard. If you do mostly graphics, maybe you will like my setup, its pretty tweaked. I do not want to go higher than C class with her though. Want to keep the original engine and not make her unrealistically fast.
  6. HAHA, I am looking to pick up some graphite rewinds and sell my panasports. I like the gunmetal color. So I was trolling for pics, and had to laugh out loud at the panasport weight quoted. Did not even look at the age. I need something to do when the other engineers start rambling. HAHA, we do love to hear ourselves talk.
  7. No way the panasports are 10 lbs for 15x7. They are not heavy, but you are talking forged weights at that point. I have not put them on the scales, but I have picked them up. Definitely did not feel like 10 lbs.
