The Patrols in the US didn't have the L motor in them. I will double check with my friend over here. He has one in his driveway.

Now there is the brotherly love I was looking for Hmmm ... $500 would get him the helmet, harness and window net he would need. And we know Zvoiture is good for the money ...

I can't believe you guys !!! I mentioned a a GT 2 car that 2manyZ's was looking at, as a joke I said I am starting a fund. Then you guys jump in and say me me me . Hey, most of us are having hard times lately and can't spend money on the things we want. Deals will always come along if you have cash in hand. I have been on the good end of a bunch of them. Sometimes you just have to wait until your time comes. My car has been on hold this Summer , because of lack of funds

Dwight, Not only are you broke now, but after buying that car and sinking another couple grand into it you will really be broke

Actually 2ManyZ's has so much money he can't spend it all fast enough I was just trying to get the guy motivated to buy that car

Hey List, We need to join in and help 2ManyZ's get this GT2 car , so he doesn't have to sit home on the weekends with his dog. He really needs a project he can complete before the next Ice Age Here is a pic of the car he is thinking about.

I thought it was in the 16's or 17's. Remember it had 3:36's and wasn't a rocket off the line

Steve, Your are killing me with this post. I would love to come down and watch races at Laguna . Unless you are in a large BMW , Porsche, or Cobra club chances are you aren't getting on the track. They even gave the US Touring Cars grief with the sound levels I heard. My friend did attend the Mini Cooper event they had there last year and he has some great photos of his car coming down the hill.

I really like the add they used on the website when they were introducing the new 350Z about a year and a half ago. It was set to music and showed the Z plates and them making the original Z, also showed its racing heritage. I should have saved that one to file

Welcome Brobob ! I knew what FNG meant and I wasn't in the military Looks like you are well on your way with your Z.

I would be affraid to take my car to the strip. It so darn slow off the line I bet I couldn't run any better then a high 15 low 16 with it. luckily they handle well.

Mad Soul, I sent you an email about the carbs.

Madsoul, Are you looking for a round top SU set up ? I have one I might part with. Mike

My vote is for smg1404 as project of the month

Mike, I have an L26 sitting her in my garage that runs great. You just need the carbs and manifold. What do you have to trade

Mike, Are you back in Oregon again ? If so I can probably put you in touch with an engine builder with L Motor experience. I know some of the main guys in NWDE and also a few racers over your way.

Are you serious about painting your car with spray cans ? If thats true you are the second Z owner that has said that . I wonder how many cans it would take me to paint mine

I still not crazy about the 350Z, but I didn't think the 240Z was all that cool when I was a kid. Infiniti's G35 Coupe looks better and has the same running gear as the 350Z. I guess it will have to grow on me

Hey Steve, As far as I know only two 240's were entered on OTC. Each car had two drivers . I am not sure what other they had two 300ZX's entered. Here is the entry list . http://www.opentrackchallenge.com/archives/field.new.htm Mike

I sent you a PM earlier phi22b@ck. I haven't tackeled this beast yet , but alot of info is out there on how to get those pins out. Don't forget to use the chatroom if you want to pick some brains. A few of us are in there regularly. Good luck

Johns car wasn't completed on time , so they used Byran Lampe's ITS 240 (car 25). The 240 pictured is out of Northern California. The number 94 car was driven by Dennis Thoney and Phil Buttolph. I have seen pictures of thier car in hillclimb photo albums. Here is where pics of John and Bryan are. http://www.speedtoys.com/~headonphotos/Galleries/2002/OTC-2002/25/ And here are some pics of # 94 http://www.speedtoys.com/~headonphotos/Galleries/2002/OTC-2002/94/ Congratulations to John and Bryan for finishing 3rd in Unlimited 3 with an ITS car with slicks.

How about Project car of the Month for those of us who will never get that paint job.

I used the stock type gasket from my import parts store. I then took the copper high heat sealant and put a bead on both sides of the gasket before installing. It has been holding up fine for me. The first time I intalled it I didn't use the copper sealant and had leaks. Also I used anti seize on all the mounting studs and bolts. It is much easier to get the nuts back off later.

Just get a fuel Cell and Drift away

Don't let 2ManyZ's pick one. He doesn't know what a running 240Z looks like Acually I like the random car pick. When you start getting into the Car of the Month stuff. You get people voting for their friends, or the high dollar cars getting picked all the time. I like hoew you picked EricB's car. He has been working hard on it and isn't doing a frame off or show type car.
