  1. Well the new versions are certainly less of a fire hazard....so perhaps safer ?

    350z looks like an Audi TT. 370z looks like what the 350z should have looked like.

    Is there a nice picture around?

    Too dangerous for me... but we can't cross the border anyway so I doubt many from Canada were there. ?

    Is Mad Mike there?
  8. Usually there is a lean blip then a rich drop. It is hard to tune out. Make sure your fuel levels are all the same across the 3 carbs. 30 to 27mm down from the jet bridge works nicely. Aim for all 3 to be a 29mm as a staring point.
  9. 135 main would be hinting at rich WOT. Try a 125 as a first step.
  10. I think it is an engine rebuilder: https://www.high-performance-engines.com/

    Great photos guys!
  12. Can you fit a Ghosn in the back?
  13. Given the current state of Nissan, I guess this is the best they could do. But when I see the black paint on the roof & pillars, the rockers, and the lower rear bumper to psychologically reduce the visual of the underlying bloated 370 base, it seems they would need to address these with actual structural changes rather than the paint camouflage trickery. The crease in the side body looks odd descending from front to back too. Reversing the slope could make it a little more aggressive/straked.
  14. if only
  15. I just wish they would have moved further away from the 370z style. It is clear the effort was very limited. I guess Toyota rebranding a BMW is just as lame. The industry should also move away from the unbalanced trend started by the Dodge Magnum with a fat bloated body and small windows/low roof:

    Who would have thought that mainland China could have f'd up ZCON.... 邪恶的中国
  17. Corvette body kit? ?
  18. They would have made more of a significant design change by just bolting ZG flares and 432R Rear Spoiler .... this is another 370z in my eyes. It is pretty bad when you look at a "new car design" and need a photo of the last iteration to find the subtle changes.... Nissan is lost. And as Mr K and Mr M said of the 350z,.,... IT STILL LOOKS FAT. 50year anniversary of the 240z and a not-240z tribute car...grrrr A look behind the new design process: 370z chassis (quick and cheap low bar effort platform) [✔] 300zx tail lights & 3l engine (cheap plastic insert and low bar engine) [✔] S30 badges and hood bump (very cheap changes) [✔]
  19. another 370z,,,, nice
  20. Kubota ?
  21. Thanks all! WOW it is variable but high. I last bought 2X4 in Jan or Feb ~ $3 each. And in 1993 when I built a house at $0.99.... Tyvek/Tuck tape was ~ $7/roll in 93 and it is now ~ $11/roll. Nice to see some things less than 900% price jump!
  22. I crapped my pants buying wood on the weekend. An eight foot "Two by Four" is $9.20 here with tax in. And we are surrounded by trees in Canada! I'll build next year.... what are prices where you are?

    Tractors rule!
  24. I rarely use the word "Hero" but your dad was clearly one. That was one of the best posts on this forum. He will be in our prayers.
