Thank you all for the help. I have since talked to my uncle who has said many of the same things. He said to start small (like my fuel filter and air filter). I have already changed the spark plugs and wires, the ignition coil, and (this was its cause of death for a while) my ignintion condenser. I blew a fusible link in the process, so i'm also sporting a new one of those. Mostly, I heard replies about speed. I'm not going for speed, really. but the oomph off the gun tips help. I was rather hoping for some more noise tips. (so pretty much, do these things sound brutal with a straight-pipe exhaust?) I have thought about it, but decided if it's just gonna be a louder fart, then it ain't worth it... Thanks once again, I hope to hear from some of you more!

Help me please! This will be a fun area for you smarter mechanics out there who love to watch a young car enthusiast start a quest for his very own machine. My car is awesome. I love my z. But it just doesn't kick enough tail to match my attitude. I need some small hints on how to make it a little more... beefy. I would like more power, and possibly volume. I want people to respect my little in-line six. But if it keeps getting its pride kicked by low power and quiet farting engine noises, it won't get very far. So... anything helps. Keep in mind i don't have proper funding or tools to do the big overhaulin' most of you would do to it. Thank you!

I've been skiddish about said 'salvage yards', as they have been unreliable in the past. Most didn't know what the hell i was talking about when i was looking for a new ignition condenser (mine went bad shortly after purchase). I'm almost positive they don't have any z cars laying around. The last place i got a part from was 'danny's datsuns' in oregon. Other than that, there's nissanpartspro.com, but i do not know exactly what they have called these fenders. (i can't find fender in their little links).

Hello. My name is Andrew. I have in my posession a 1979 280ZX that is rusty and falling apart. (you know so when you're complaining about 'scratching my rust') I am posting this as a help point for body parts. I personally need both front fenders, and possibly new driver's door panel. If you have information, or tips, or complaints, or anything of that nature, please contact me. (or simply reply to this thread). Bear in mind, i am young, and this is my first car ever. Although i am slightly experienced with chevy cars and such, i have never seen a Z car before my own. Thank you.
