    just the standard, non coated ones, from Motorsport Auto... eventually I wanna get some nice coated headers.

    I yelled with glee...until it I realized.."damn, now I gotta that header off to get that hole welded shut"

    my car used to run like crap while sitting at a stop light... then after driving it awhile it would get better.. I could never figure it out.. I always thought it was heat and/or tuning... well, I finally figured it out ...my heat shield too close to the header and the vibrating heatshield actually sliced a hole in one of my primaries hahaha. and the hole was directly under my rear carb... I'd sit at a light, and slowly the rear carb would be sucking in exhaust, and run like crap!! :stupid:

    no, I was contemplating selling the motor.. but decided to just keep it as is and make it look good... yeah, I posted an mp3 file of my exhaust note awhile back.. btw, here is a vid from last Feb at MSR open track event... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGErzaIlpsQ

    I dont know?... i'm not doing the work..

    you know it. Everyone i know, associates that car with the blue haha... it will be a little darker and it will have clear coat this time... it will also have a mild spoiler in the rear(you'll see it on my hood haha)... I used to not like that look, but when I put it on and looked at my car profile with my Kaminari front spoiler... it just seem to fit... can't wait to see it all done with my new Black Panasports...

    yeah, the last paint job (although it looked good from 50ft haha) it had a lot of flaws in it... this guy is good.. only drawback is he supports a major team in the national car show scene. I'm associated with them, but not part of em.. so my car sits on a backburner until there is free time... but I'm getting it all done for about half the cost.. so I really can't complain..

    It's still not done.:disappoin . but I guess it's worth it considering the deal I'm getting.. here are a few pics so far I know it's a mess now, but damn the car sure is straight now.. it had sooo many waves in the sides.. hopfully I'll have her on the road by the end of summer

    I think you need the clutch collar as well. the 2+2 is different..
  15. here are a few pics of me and a couple of other cars.. let me know if you and your car were there.. I have a bunch of pictures... I might have your car.. BTW I drove the Blue 350Z around the oval and the red one around the AutoX course

    it might be easier to just get rich and buy one of these http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBzJdoBky1Q&search=ccx
  17. haha, aint that the truth... currently I'm driving my new Titan(the tow vehicle).. which is a nice comfortable ride and all, but it doesn't do well in the turns hahaha
  18. My Z has been at the body shop 2 weeks.. it was down for a month prior to that while I had the engine out for cleaning and repainting engine and the engine compartment... basically I havent driven my Z since my Feb 4th... this waiting to drive it is just killing me!!!! are any of you feeling my pain?? . and the fact that I know how good it will look when it's done makes it even worse... How do you guys cope with your Z being down for long periods of time?

    I just cut the air horns out of the stock air filter.... I will be getting new filters though...thinking of going with the K&N filters.

    suspension is next on my list (just have tokico springs/struts/poly bushings.)... But hey.. I"m sticking with some pretty decent cars on the track ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGErzaIlpsQ ).. without the badass suspension set up ahahah... not to mention $^!# tires... well, dont' wanna get ahead of myself.. "paint first david, paint first"
  24. Dreco replied to Dreco's post in a topic in Open Discussions
