    2many is correct and I think everyone can pretty much agree. I bet we dont need to tell you these things about racing, Right scca_racer? As an Co-driver with my friends rally team I have been in the car too many times when this happens... At the best we did two summersolts high in the air. The car hit the bank of the road at about 100km/h and jumped pretty much straight upwards.... Well the crowd had fun...It is costly though!! Two races before that summersolt were also interrrupted with crashes out of the road...Luckily it was deep snow in the ground at these times to soften the hit... We did manage to cut down one birch tree though.. These summersolts were done in the summer!! After that rally my friend just decided to buy new car!! The car we drove in then was a Ford rs2000 and it costs here about 10 000 Eur/dollars.... He bought a few years newer rs2000 and kept the old one as parts.....Some hobby to pay out of own pocket? No sponsors... You can see the old rs2000 in www.mediarace.fi/racing

    It is a nice Japanese Muscle look in that car... I had one in sight but i missed it by one day...It was in normal use and the price was under 1000 euros(euro = dollar, almosto 1to1). Normally you pay 2000 or more for pretty good car. I have seen one in a field and have discussed with the owner...Well that car was missing most of the parts, but it could have some parts...I think it had tail lights on it. Take care of it=)

    It says in that auction in Ebay that the diff will bolt on in -73 240 Z . How about -74 260Z? Any knowledge about subaru models that used these diffs?

    Why does the officer allways keep his gun or stick in his left hand??? Because customer is allways right??!? I had to modify it a bit but you get the drill....We write it like that...We dont have the in preposition.. This could be a bit old... LAPD, FBI and CIA are competing who can catch a rabbit fastest. For the competition they release the first bunny in the forest for the FBI to catch. FBI sealed the forest and held a pressmeeting. FBI told that there are no such things as rabbits. It is just a product of imagination like teh aliens.. Next it was CIA's turn to show their skills. They rushed into the forest and slaughtered every animal in the forest and burned the forest down.. So it was time to change the forest for the last gang LAPD. They released another bunny and the LAPD rushed to the forest. After a while the LAPD comes out of the forest with a bear that was beat to near death condition. The bear was just repeating: "Okay, okay I am rabbit, I am rabbit!!!"

    You know that many of us scandinavians are blondes including me... Here comes few short ones.... Why do blondes keep their fingers in their ears??? To keep their thoughts inside their head... Why is blonde crying in London?? She just found out that BIG BEN is a clock?!? Why did the blonde stop hunting birds?? could not throw the dog high enough=) How to keep blonde busy for the whole day? Put him/her in a round room and tell to sit in a corner.. Why in earth was the blonde happy when he got his puzzle ready?? Because the box says 2-4 years.. This one works in finnish...Why does the blonde have a towel around her when she enters the airplane? Because it is a showerplane( Jet in finnish is suihkukone and suihku means shower and kone means plane/engine) Different...Why are these blond jokes so short?? So that even the brunets could understand them..

    And....As long as there are people with cool cars there will be people that want to have that car too....And take it to joyride. Is it only envy or what that makes them rip of and destroy other mans car? If you steal it just drive it and leave it=) One can dream of times when this could happen... I am very happy that there aren't that many car thieves around here... But it still happens too often here as well...

    Yesh, Alan I know that there is no point in doing much work for little or no money. I got the impression that they have racing parts for s30 series according to those posts above. But if they are such a small part of their products....In that case these forums are probably doing all the advertizing that tehy need allready.=) Offcourse there is no point in making special videoclips of those videos that have s30 on them if there is only few such videos and not so much coverage of s30..So maybe there is no possibility for co-operation. I thought that there would be alot z material..... This site could get some benefit of those kind of video clips in form of more visitors/ even members. And more visitors mean that it is easier to get serious sponsors with banners and so on...Every action should eventually lead to some benefit in one form or another...VideoClips are pretty desired material on web nowdays..Surely most of us are clearly z fans but many of us have backround of classiscars and some enthusiasm for newer cars too....Atleast allmost everyone here has some other form of transport for daily driving? I am not saying that this would actually be good enough reason to get started with co-operation in this videoclip sharing... In exchange companies such as 2&4 can get more visitors to their site...Maybe even orders. Am I making any sense or should I take some intensive lessons in English? Hope that I don't make too much fool of myself for being an Bba in marketing...=) I hope that you didnt think that I was pointing that piracy statement to ypu Alan. It was meant to be just on general level >>" Without any intentions to suspect you, I bet that almost 100% of us have supported piracy some how....By downloading some games or maybe by buying pirate cd's and stuff like that. I think that lot of us take part in piracy without actually knowing that. In the internet it is just too easy to just click yes and DL something...

    Never heard of those but now i know... Personally I dont even have any such software. Those could make each life a bit easier? I dont know and did not have patience to really look into them.. I belong to those who want eventually see the real thing and actually own one. I do have pretty much all the videoclips that there are about these cars on the net...Atleast all that I have got my hands to... Those old s30 commercials are nice...

    Totally agree with you Alan. I certainly would not want to see any product of mine to be freely shared via internet or any other way. I am pretty sure that everyone here can agree with points Alan has made. Freeware is freeware it is not meant to be business by itself(maybe they have some additions or side line of products to make money)=). Same goes with some productions for example some documentaries that have been produced with some subsidies or public money....But normally even these productions have intentions to collect money for some public cause or just wellfare. Not sure about all words here but I hope you get my point... Without any intentions to suspect you, I bet that almost 100% of us have supported piracy some how....By downloading some games or maybe by buying pirate cd's and stuff like that. Marketing vice it is even reasonable to spread some material thorough different channels free...But only to some extend. People always want to know more and see more...It is like when you give devil the littlefinger he wants the whole hand... That is offcourse the whole idea of free samples...To make people aware of the product and give the free delicious sample so that people is going to want the rest of it... So it could be usefull for this product to be seen in places like 240z.org and so on. It would contribute to growing sales of these videos....And eventually these vids could lead to some extra sales of z products and parts? So how about some short clips to raise the appetite? I know that there are some samples and I haven't seen them all yet. Maybe some samples about s30 cars on them? Indicating that which films have material about s30 cars...Thats offcourse for the 2&4 to decide..... Just an idea Mike and Alan could be the right persons to make an initiative towards the company? Is it not so that 240z.org is open to co-op with suitable companies? How many visitors there are in these sites during a month Mike? Just my thougts....Hope you don't mind me posting them here?
  15. So who wants to drive it to Finland? I wish we had as sweet deals as that.....Atleast it looks fine in those pics but what can you really tell by watching them.... Here you can have a piece of sh..t for 2000... My first 240Z had severe rust problems no original carbs, no fan/cooling, rusted bumpers, self-made backwheelarches, hidious interior, busted clock, non-working tacho, smashed synchro in 2nd gear, twisted slot-mags...It had been stripped of many original valuable stuff and replaced with something else or just faulty items.The painting was awfull. I paid about 2600 invested 700 and sold it for 3500....Then I bought my present 260z Which was just painted and has every original stuff on it(exept flat tops)....No rust.. I paid 4150.. Could sell it for 5000 or more... At the moment only adverts about s30 z's are the ones that are interested in buying!!
  16. One day in the future this kind of conversation is going to consern tuned cars of today! For example this kind of show car.... http://user.tninet.se/~bjx414c/jackesnissane.htm
  17. Carl I was merely expressing why it reminds me of MiamiVice. Those vents remind me of testarossa. pretty far fetched but still... I do understand that in race cars ventilations are necessary.
  18. It looks like s30 z to me!!! front light bowls and the grille area...Door and windshield?!? Door handle? Those areas sure look more like s30 body!! In my opinion it is s30. What ever it is it is ugly as hel....
  19. Allthough I don't know about the Imsa cars I would say that the builder has been confused and chanching his mind under the modifying process.... That nose is as flat as 350z's and could be changed to 350 look easily=) He must have been really indecisive when he has decide to go for that gto look in the front part... Some things makes me really think of the MiamiVice...White colour and wide body with those air intakes on back wheelarches. I just hate that carrera style spoiler in any other car than maybe just maybe in 911 carrera. 356 porsche is my favourite Porch. Must go and find out what the Imsa cars looked like.
  20. Where are Sonny Crocket and Tubs?? And what about Elvis? There is something 80's ...Miami Vice in this creation of a very sick and twisted mind!

    z.com bit booring and flat all the grey....Must check out those vids at work... No patience... We have pretty much different kind of connections available here in Finland. Kabelmodem that uses tv-kabel.....256kbps/256kbps 52 eur/month(dollar is almost 1to1 with eur) I personally use gprs connection at home and on road. I have Motorola 720 and a Fujitsu laptop for work and fun=). Gprs cost is only 16 eur/month. Speed is 115 kbps....

    Which is the best head to start to tune? How good is e88? How about e88 with FI? Do they work together?
  23. Heeer u go.... Are you talking about this MAzda rx7 looking car? Dull http://www.snopes.com/business/misxlate/starion.htm http://www.starion-turbo.co.uk/ I dont believe that colt is same to mitsubishi as Datsun is to nissan.... Colt has been one of their model since 60's Funniest damn Colt!! 1400 Turbo!! http://www.coltmania.com/version2.htm
  24. So if everything else is ok the I suggest that some one rotates engine by hand. I did not notice any comments about the matter if tooths in clutc and tooths of the gearshaft aren't matching/sliding....If you can understand what I am trying to say? Up and down right an left doesnt necessary help in that case but rotating engine or gearbox from the back end(supposing that you have gear on) slowly at the same time you push it in could help.
