Really it ain't that bad, not my cup of tea anyway. Maybe if you put some FFAATT pieces of rubber on the corners to fill those flares more it would be different. Those driving lights could be downsized quite a bit. my $0.01 (Really my opinion isn't really worth the extra pennyLOL )

I just noticed that the rear fiberglass bumper on my 78' 280z rests(in contact with) on the tail pipe of the stock muffler. I haven't driven it much yet but will this cause any warping or cracking? I know paint blemishes in the area are inevitable.

That RULES!

I have always been a corvette fan and a Z fan. I confess before I got my first car(before I knew what a Z was) I was a corvette fan. When I got my first Z I caught Z fever, and thats cause it was a ZX. That video almost made me cry. I have always wanted to see the car i love most do that. The fact that i heard that L motor sound just took the cake for me.

HA! but hey I still have a soft spot for the 280zxs.......

My first car was a Z, I also paid for it myself. That didn't stop me from being a revhead. I fixed it when it broke had my fun, and I didn't pay too much for insurance. i also had the option of a 240sx but I am glad I chose the z(well ZX) which as my first. I liked them so much thats all I have ever bought. Now that I have a 240z and 280z I like them even more than the zx, the Z was the way to go for me.

I wonder just how much faster it will be, If it becomes faster at all. (Has to be though) Also I wonder if the extra performance is worth the $$$$$.

Wow!! U guys better pick that up right away. That car looks too awsome and it is an early Z. Wish I had the money.:disappoin

I don't have a name for my 240z. When I talk to it with the accelerator pedal, and a down shift. It ansewers back.

If i get to make it to graduation day with my 240z's I'm gonna be so happy cuz i'm gonna get to get started on a L28turbo conversion.

My car still runs and runs strong I just do not know what that sound is and no valve seat isbroken loose. (as said in the engine thread where I give a description of this prob.) Texas Z I might be selling both my cars together though for about $3000 obo. well less. Its that time again for tuition to be due in august, and I need to scrape up 5 grand. I am not driving it though to school. Since I do not know if the problem will lead to any engine damage. I was driving it like this with no problems for 2 weeks. If I some how get to keep my 240Zs then I can just swap the cylinder head over from the parts car. If someone buys them well they can do the same, but I have a receipt in the records of the previous owner replacing valve seals and stuff like that on the blue car. Since the cam oiler was loose I think one of the valves just got stuck. The noise has quieted now quite a bit. Since the replacement of the cam oiler.

April fools!:classic:

whoa!! that car is i tx! I wonder where?

Here in south texas I have only seen in my life 4 240z's and I own 2 of them the others are in a junkyard. 1 260z I had a chance to buy it but I was 19 and couldn't come up with all they were asking for it. Lots of 280z's are what I've seen, around here. Still a Zcar is a very rare sight here. I know the owners of all the 280z's i've seen on the road. I have never seen a 240z besides mine on the road here. You see mostly all 280zx's if any thing else. Sometimes you'll see a Z31or 32 but those are rare sights too. I do see alot, I mean alot of 350Zs. Almost every time I go to Corpus Christi I see one.

Hey ZMEFLY is that your new z in your avatar. If it is it is pretty sweeeeet!

Sean Dezart: Yes i do belong in Iraq. You said it well. My liitle 19 yr old girl cousin is out there. Many of my friends are out there, many of them women. I really wish it was me out there rather than them.

you know maybe i am wrong and i probably am. Maybe all i'm saying is just verbal spagetti. After all the info i've read, heard , and saw. (well i don't really trust the media anyway.) i have come to at least one conclusion: it is time for the US to step out of the UN. I know that is a very rough statement to say, but i also feel the UN is not functioning as it should. Or maybe different countries and different people have different ideas about what that function is. Maybe the UN needs to be fixed. I don't know. Maybe it is just the fuel filter. You know when those things clog up, Your Z (or Zed) won't run right. I'm gonna go back to a good ol' Z thread.

what is wierd is that so many people are formulating opinions without any knowledge to back up thier opinions. example of a conversation i was in today: (I am a college studet and this took place at school) Student 1: we should have never went to war. the UN sanctions were already working.(no , i am not making this up.) student 2: its all about oil and we are just trying to get thier oil fields. student 1: what do you think? ME: Earlier you said the we had no reason to cause war and that the un sanctions were working. student 1: yeah. Me: well can I ask you, what were the un sanctions that were placed? student 1: UUUUUUUUUUUr....... Me: Then how do you know saddam was following them, or that they were in fact working. Me: You (student 2) think that we are just fighting for thier oil. why do you think that? what information led you to belive that. ( I was expecting an argument of some sort.) student 2: I don't know i just don't think that we should be out there. Me: Then say that, don't go off talking about oil. No one said that texaco is going to build a pipeline to iraq and start pumping it here. student 2: well the US isn't all as good as every one thinks. we ship our POWs to egypt to get tortured. ( I should have followed the steps from that first post in this thread at this point it would've been perfect.) ME: I haven't heard that but they should do what they have to do. If an Iraqi soldier has info that could save US soldiers from dying and he won't tell, you have to do something. You aren't the one out there holding a machine gun getting shot at. What would you do? Better for the enemy to suffer some than let your own people die. After that the conversation on this subject ended. Still there are alot of college students that have strong opinions on the war with nothing to back it up.

when i first bought my 240z my horn didn't work. I found out that the horns that are in front of the radiator were not pluged in..

Mine is simple. fstr240z- faster 240z I had worked hard one summer at a grain elevator and cotton gin(i live in texas, and i am a college student). I was working 7day 12hr weeks for close to 3 months. I was able to save $3000 for my 240z. My friend asked me are you going to make a better looking 240z or a faster 240z. Instead of getting a new paint job (which my paint wasn't all that bad for a daily driver) I purchased performance parts. So I made a faster 240z, thus the name faster 240z.
