my from bumper of my 72 wasn't bolted on the side and I wanted to take off the bumper guard so I removed it to find one of the bolts for the side had been broken off in it, I drilled it out and used a reverse tread removal bit and snaped the bit in it , I tried another bit to try to retry the process , I assume the bit is some super metal because it let anything drill into it , what do you think a machine shop a bumper shop or a welder?

I know what I want for X-mas now , gonna have to leave a whole bunch of cookies and make some whisky spiked eggnog for this one very nice car http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2448140715

my old z had suspension techniques springs I guess what you guys call ST , and I loved the way it was , and had tokico blues on it, my crx now has neuspeed sports and tokico and I think it rides very comfortably, but I am sure we all diffrent ideals what rough and smooth are too , does the sway bar change the ride charateristics of the car in reguard to riding rougher?

I didn't need that trick played on me got stuck by the mower , car and house , thank god I am not an electrician by tradeLOL

I am at the point of doing suspension and was hoping to get ideals from everyone out there as far as what they have and like or don't like , only thing I am set on is new energy suspension bushing <full set> , I was thinking Eibach progressive springs or the pro kit and tokico or kyb struts, gonna be a weekend car and hopefully a fast one , thanks in advance for the help Jeff

yes it was the topic of an earlier thread http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10498 interesting comments

this was in a thread I post about building a f54 and 31 combo I hope it helps http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1292&highlight=L+engine+calculator good luck

ok all my old motor pics are too large to post so heres a new motor pic with the 400 lbs of air horn stuff removed

this is the motor before me starting on it , got the car for 450 so I couldn't complain , will have full car shots hopefully tomarrow

ok if I was guessing I would have to go with air horns , actually can't make out what it was bit there was alot of it , it connected to my ignition a relay , not sure if I have more electrical issues but I doubt it and 4 toggle switches and two relays inside the engine compartment , from another post , not real big on electrical, this is my first z with anytype of electrical probs , here the pics of the carnage and after pics , thanks All Jeff

missed the one I seek now , a right hand drive Z 240 could have had one 6 months ago but passed on it because it was an auction and couldn't see before i bid but I will fine one eventually

it looks like a handle for a toy car

I think it more fitting on a 4 door neon or civic that has cut the springs and has the glow neon on the wipers and wheels caps, and let not forget the stickers that improve your hp. I assotiate those wings with cars that are slow, and cars that have all of a look but no go, I would never do that to a z but its like everything its taste, I prfer the sleeper aspect of street cars , very clean nice cars that all you see is the rear of good luck

well what I think I could own and could afford are two completely diffrent lists I have my 72 240z and my 91 honda crx si both I love dearly and have owned many supras and mistubishi starions and assorted others <22 in total> Wish List New GT-40 Acura NSX M3 last 2 generations 70-72 Cuda Mini S 350z<january hopefully> M5 a/c Cobra 996 C2 62 Patrol I am sure there are more maybe a tr512:love:

hey is 280 hp and running a 14.1 right , I mean no offense to the owner but I would think it would push it through the 1/4 faster than that , I realize that 14.1 is not slow by anymeans but still 280 is a bunch of ponies, Jeff

well I had the exact thing happen 2 weeks ago with my 240z , ended up being the fuel pump , check to see if its getting fuel to the carbs , you can take a long piece of fuel hose and run the out side of the fuel pump to a coffee can and see if it fills up , to make sure you are getting fuel first , good luck:geek:

I would gladly but due to the k&n filters they are no longer there , so I am trying to make it work correctly

no I wasn't , actually the first time I had driven the car , just not got it tuned enough to get on the road , hhm I bet you are right , how interesting , how do I get rid of it

it is a valve , have you check to see that the heater hoses are just bad and cracked maybe in an are you can't see, if the hose feels hard and lacks the rubbery feels they might just be bad , much cheaper than the valve and if i was under there doing that anyway I would replace the hoses just to make sure I wasn't under there replacing them after the valve as well, good luck

crazy ideal here but you might get her to swing towards a older vw either a cabriolet or a jetta , not too bad on repairs or one of the slightly older sentras , not overly sexy but does the job and not a honda

hey check out this link for your easiest and least expensive answer , if interested I have a guy who custom built a harness for my electronic dizzy< not much to it really but its new and has either the by pass or eliminates the ballast resistir and I have a word file that explain it all very well , made sense to me which was amazing http://www.geocities.com/zgarage2001/engine.html scroll down to the ignition area I can sent you the instruction if you like just pm with your email address , good luck jeff:geek:

Zhadman , count me as very interested in a new harness , thanks

Alan , I am sorry to hear of your bad luck but you gotta be somewhat thankful, atleast he didn't clip you and make you lose control and cause more damage to the Alfa or worse you could have gotten hurt, I am surprised that the police acted like that , in fla hit and run with more than $500 damage or with injuries is a felony , not to mention tried to ram you . But above all be thankful it wasn't your Z that was hit. Best of luck
