Idling makes him sick!
George - my Z is a male!!! If you want proof, just look at the bonnet! I had my tank dropped and inspected (no rust!) and my lines flushed last time. Strange thing is, I didn't even think it could have somethign to do with that :stupid: I'll check it after lunch!

Idling makes him sick!
Hi guys, Another problem, I think it's to do with the carbs, and I have a feeling its something to do with running rich... but I dunno After idling for a while (few minutes) my car goes up to 2000-2500 reasonably OK, but then splutters and chokes and has a hard time going any higher. Once he's being driven for a while it returns to normal and he'll rev freely. I was idling for a very long time on a slight decline and then drove off, only to be restricted by the car, which wouldn't go very fast at all - anyuthing above 2000 was sluggish and no power at all, I drove for a while (couple of kays) annoying everyone behind me, and then he ran perfect after that! What do you think could be the problem?

Should I go EFI on my 240z?
I'd imagine a half-cut business would be very hard to keep out of the red... especially in a place like Malaysia where most people get a new car if their old one feels a bit sick (this is assumed, I have never been to Malaysia! Is it true?)... and I can't imagine many people there would be into swapping engines around, compared with Australia. The number of FJ20 and SR20 engines you see in 510's and the like... you could make a monthly magazine about it! (ooops they already have several!!!!!)

dash restoration
Is it just me (my dash may have been replaced before, who knows!) or is the grain used on that dash there very different to stock??

Should I go EFI on my 240z?
Come on, be sensible about it though. Compare similar things - how about a 2nd hand R33 compared to an R33 half cut. And then, you'll need not only labour and tuning, but chassis strengthening, brakes, fatter wheels, and a plethora of other stuff if you really want this car to be driveable (ask cuong if you want details). Not to mention the cost of buying a Z in the first place..... Can you imagine stock brakes with an R33 GTR engine?!?! I challenge you to find a RB26DETT engine conversion into a Zed that has cost less than the car (be it R32, R33 or whatever) it came out of.

Web Host???
I have signed up with Brinkster and a couple of others now, will see if any of them work. Biggest problem is the lack of FTP with any of these places!! Frankly if it was my site I would just pay for proper hosting. No one seems to do a good job of free stuff anymore...
-
Should I go EFI on my 240z?
:tapemouth :tapemouth :tapemouth I think you should have a talk to Cuong............... an RB26DETT into a Z is NOT a cheap project, like Mike mentioned. As for going EFI on a stock L24, well, personally I wouldn't, but if it was going to be a high-po L24 then yes, why not (well I would probably get triple somethingorothers just to keep it "period"... :stupid:

Did you guys see this a few years back?
Yep, that was the first 350Z concept, shown waaaay back in 1999 or something. Not too sure if I like it, but I'm not too sure if I like the production 350Z either!

350Z in Prague
Maybe there is some sort of loophole when it comes to the cinemas, because I saw it too on Thurs night before teh Matrix: Reloaded!! VERY nice on the big screen, even if it was just the preview. Saw the whole thing at the 350Z launch <g><g><g>

Web Host???
Hi guys I need a host for a website that is just over 1 MB in size, the website is hardly ever updated but needs to exist simply so the company has a web presence. The host can have one ad or popup (prefer not to !!) but must be free. It must also serve PHP for me though! Suggestions, anyone??
