Pics are on their way soon. Just need to find my dig camera

Technically i'm not that new (a year now). I just wanted to say hello to everyone.

I had an SR in a 240sx for years here in the U.S. and I had one in a 180sx in Japan for a year too. When it comes to an SR, you want a oil press guage. If you don't know the dude you bought it from and you want to make sure nothing is fishy, watch your oil pressure. Normal pressure at a warmmed-up engine idle is about 30 psi. If the SR has no oil pressure, you better get ready for a rebuild, because the oil squirters are blocked up and the longer you go with little or no pressure (10 psi and less) the quicker your block will sieze. You can pick up a cheapo manual one at auto zone or checkers/kragen for like $30-40.

I have the same BMW cap on my 70 240Z. In order for me to make it work I had to use tin snips and cut a tiny bit off each of the latches that extend out on the cap. It fits fine now, but the downside is you can't lock it. The lock works on the cap but you can still unscrew it and remove the cap with it "locked". Some guy on e-bay was selling the cap saying it fits a 240z and works fine. I guess it makes a good decoy. People will just assume that it is locked and not steal my gas. hahaha
