The guy is joking right? Looks like there was a fire in engine bay. Vicky

The 72 FR 240Z didn't come with a radio and I finally located one from a guy in Texas. Paid a hefty price for it too. Installed the radio in the car, was ready to listen to some tunes and come to find out there is no speaker in the car......duh. :stupid: Vicky

Those are nice Ed. I had a friend that was the 2nd owner of either a 77 or 78 280Z and those hubcaps where on the car. Those look great, just a simple clean up and they'd be good to go. Nice of you to just give them away.:classic: Vicky

You know I would have to say "Red", but that's a given. Anyway, when the 350Z first came out, there was this color which was kind of maroonish/brownish. Was it called Brickyard? That would look great on an early Z. I think Nissan only offered that color one year. But that "Lemans Sunset" is blindingly beautiful. Vicky

I sure wish we were comming out this year, but it's not in the cards, what with the gas prices and all. Plus we went to the Z Car convention in New Hampshire in October. Sure would be nice to meet all you guys. Have a great time and maybe we'll make it out in 2005. Have fun!:classic: Vicky

I think the low 20's seems fair for that car. It's an exceptional restoration. I must agree that since it is modified and not restored to original factory specifications, it would not be worth as much as the cars offered through the Nissan program. That car appears to be restored with the same detail as the factory offered Z's, but the backing of Nissan is what increases the value of the program cars. If I had the garage space and an extra 20 or 30 grand, I would consider adding that car to my fleet of Z's. She's a real beauty. Vicky

Better beef up your suspension if that women is getting in your Z......if she'd even fit in a Z. Gross Vicky

No better feeling in the world than ripping through the gears in a Z. :devious: Vicky

I was going to ask that question being a female and the one who does the laundry in the house. But I knew if I waited a few posts someone would ask that. Too FunnyROFL Pre-shrunk Tees are the best. Vicky

Great idea. I'll buy 2 mediums. Vicky

My husband has this "Kidney Killer" set-up on his red Z. Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings Suspension Techniques lowering springs (Z is lowered 2") Tokico 5 Way adjustables 1" Heavy duty sway bars 4 Wheel camber adjustment kit Front & Rear strut tower braces Quite a painful ride in my opinion, but it's not my car. Vicky

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your daughter. Positive thoughts only. She will be fine. Scott & Vicky

Great idea (dream) ChrisA. I'd like to here some feedback on that also. Vicky

Thanks 2ManyZs. Great explaination and super picture. I'm getting so smart................ Vicky

I'm reading an article in one of the cruise magazines that we have here in Florida. The name of the article is "10 Engine Wives Tales Debunked". #2 Fuel injection always makes more power - Fuel injection does a great job when throttle position changes often. For types of racing where the throttle is wide open most of the time (i.e. drag racing), a carburetor is a formidable opponet - especially when matched against throttle body injection. I know what fuel injection is and I know where the throttle body is, but what is "Throttle Body Injection". Is that whats on the FI Z's? Vicky

We'll be there for sure, can't wait to meet some fellow Z people! Vicky:classic:

I would think that the impact gun wouldn't be a good idea. You might strip (round) the lug nuts. I've heard that the old fashioned lug nut wrench is best when the lug nuts are "rusted" on. Lots of muscle and you should be able to "crack" the lug nuts. Plus the impact wrench can scratch up the lug nuts, not good if your going to a show. Just my useless .02 cents worth. Vicky
