    Reminds me of the simpsons when the comic store guy is looking up stuff on the internet on Mr X's (Homer's) website and he says, and I quote: "Oh No. There is no emoticon to express how I am feeling"

    Yay, somone finally noticed my avatar! Yeah its an animated gif that i made. I made a 3D animated scene of the 240z in lightwave then exported each frame as a separate image. then loaded each one in imageready and converted it to an animated gif. I had to keep lowering the image quality and shortening the animation to keep the filesize small.

    Member Nixcars has a 240z that he's putting a sr20 in. He'd be the guy to ask. Putting a 4 cylinder engine into a 6 cylinder car seems a bit odd to me. Not that I'm against it. Have you considered an RB engine?
  4. Mr Camouflage
    Ebay shouldn't allow auctions like that, since you arent actually buying anything. all you are doing is paying for the opportunity to buy the first convertable they get. Idiots.

    Whack everything with a hammer before trying to undo it.

    Sounds like a problem. Rear wheel camber is supposed to be non adjustable, and set at 48' (thats 48 minutes, which are fractions of a degree). Might be a bearing problem.

    Euro lights? Please. Lets set the record straight. They are Aussie Lights! You know I'm right.

    240z are about 1025kg in weight, so they are wrong and are charging us too much. (I'm in WA).

    Someone has a free 240z in texas that they are going to crush by the end of the week if none takes it off his hands. I'ts not what you are looking for, but if you want to strip some parts. Or if anyone else wants it. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6251

    I saw an ad in the West Australian for the new mini that said it had a vertical parking system so it could park on walls. How dumb do they think people are? Well actually if your dumb enough to buy a new mini for how much thay are asking for them, then you are likely to believe anything.

    Another thing. For 6 months: My honda has a tare wieght of 975. Lic fee $53.60 all other fees the same as the 240z. 240z lic fee $60.35 Commodore tare weight, 1115, $67.10 Licence fee is based on car tare weight. So if we can get the Tare weight set to the correct 1020kg we could save some $$ per year. Sure its not much (about $10 to $15 per year) but no one likes getting ripped off by the government. WA 240z owners are being overcharged!

    Ha, mine is a sedan too! I just looked at the rego. and its due tomorrow. Lucky I checked it. Better not tell them its a coupe, they might up the insurance charge. It also says its a H530 not HS30. Tare 1067

    I've seen the ad on the TV for the movie. You only see sleek with his head out the passenger side window and the rear side window and rear pillar. But it's enough for me to work out that it is actually a red 280ZX 2 Seater not a 280zx 2+2. Wonder where that car came from? I didn't think they were sold in OZ. Must be a second hand import. Yeah the yellow in the TV show is 260z is a 2+2.
  15. Mr Camouflage
    Yeah but the postage is a killer. We're in Australia incase you didn't notice.
  16. Mr Camouflage
    P.S Your compliance plate is in a weird spot. Mine is forward of the strut tower, and not on its side like yours. Did you move it or was it always there? What year car is it. Mines a 72. Pics in my gallery

    Its actually designed to suck air out of the engine into the air filter case, through the carbs, into the combustion chamber where the nasty crank case gasses are burned. When you disconnect it and put on a breather the nasty gasses build up in the crank case and contaminate your oil, and leak out of the breather into the air where you can breathe them in. I advise you to put the pipe back on. Use a braded pipe if you still want it to look pretty.

    I would expect that you have no rights when purchasing a second hand car from a private buyer. About the only right you have is to not buy the car, after you've bought it it becomes your problem. Thats just the way the legislation is at the moment. Buyer beware. Maybe if you'd had the car inspected by the RAC or the like and they said it was fine, then you might be able to take action against them. When you get the details of the place that makes the frame rails can you post them here for everyones benefit.

    Standard nissan enging naming conventions would suggest that the difference is that one is electronically fuel injected and the other isnt (ie its got carburetters). But I'm guessing. nissan might have not started adding an e to injected motors right from the get go. And from the sounds of your post, you already have fuel injection. I'd used the ecu and wiring that came with the engine incase they are different. If you go modifying the cam you might have to use an aftermarket tuneable computer to get the best results, as the standard ecu is tuned for a stock engine.

    I saw a guy on TV here in perth thats making 2 stretch limos from genuie Walkinshaw VL commodores. He gets the metal skins to stretch the car made by a sheet metal worker to the exact contour of the door. Which brings me to my point. Instead of replacing the whole door, you could look into getting the outer skin replaced with a new one made by someone thats in the business. Not sure if its cost effective, but might be something to investigate futher.

    Probably nothing to do with proxy addresses. The Network admin has probably blocked all the ICQ ports with a firewall. Try ICQ 2 go. Its a java applet that runs in a browser window and seems to work when normal icq cant. http://go.icq.com
  22. Mr Camouflage
    Why are you depressed? Is it because your car broke down (i read that in another thread).
  23. Mr Camouflage
    Cheers BK. I dont mind broken posts and faded paint. as long as the chrome is passable. dont have to be perfect. If i wanted perfect, i'd save up and buy new ones. alfa you got pics of that choke handle? Craig.
  24. Mr Camouflage
    My Brother is in santa clara Yeah saw them on ebay Alfa, thought they were pretty pricey. New ones are nice, but when you convert it back to AUD$ it's very costly.
  25. Mr Camouflage
    Oh yeah easily. put a roadster next to a bug convertable and the datsun will win every time.
