I vote without.... That is, if Ryan promisses not to bump anything! My favorite bumperless 280 was Steve's (Zvoiture), Remember this one? It's got a "Shark like" quality or a late 50's fighter jet look, to me. Somewhat Aston Martin - ish? Whatever, It looked way aggro, especially when it was climing up your tail pipe!

If you'd like to donate some cash, I just dropped just a little more than comfortable at http://www.networkforgood.org Mine was to the American Red Cross, earmarked "Katrina Relief"

Why? It's just two dam funny watching this guy stomp all over common sense, basic mechanics and physics. What's next? Electric leaf blower boost?

All the ZX wheels are 14 X 6 + 12, except for the turbos which are 15 X 6 +12. I think they look a little "too tucked in" for my tastes.

Ill? Suicidal? Whilst I may be guilty of both, at least here I'm in good company. This is a site for the love of a sports car, not a mini van. Yes, I often travel at 100+ in my Z. Albeit an antisocial act, it is indicative of true sports car enthusiasm. You may not get much argument in you assumption from my fellows who have had followed me up and down a mountian road. What you may refer to illness, is real joi d'vive to me.

oops! moved to the correct forum! guess i was sleeping. Although, it would be nice if our 240K brothers could come to the show! I guess that whole "crossing the pacific ocean" thing complicates that a bit.

Don't forget the fender mirrors! Saw a set last week for $150.00. Should I have bought them? Oh and good JDM wheels are bought and sold daily on the club4ag.com site.

Yea, I know - and added unsprung weight - I was thinking of looks alone. By the Way, I let the deal on those wheels go by. Keep myself under the frivolus spending reins. Plus that, My SSR MkII are just over a year old. How much of a wheel wh0re do I need to be?

That's a good way to look at it. I'd like to keep our vendors in buisness. I can only get 2 years out of a set of seat covers.

Scott! Gett yer paws off me cars boyo!

Joining ZONC is good advice, no matter if you find a good shop or not.

Why are you attempting to adjust the timming under 10 degrees BTDC? Is that a spec you read in a book. Are you sure what the initial advance is on your dizzy? There are several different advance cams that may be installed in your dizzy. You need to confirm, either by direct observation or by total advance adjustment. If you carefully unscrew and lift the breaker plate and look at the advance cam below, You'll see a number stamped on the flat area before the slots. Typically a 9.5 or and 11 sometimes a 7.5 and as high as 15. This number indicates the total dizzy advance. To get total advance, you mulitply that number by for example 9.5 X 2 is 19. Now, on pump gas, and 8.5 CR and stock cam, You do not want to exeed 35 degrees total advance. So, 35 -19 = 16 So the optimal timing for this dizzy is 14 ~ 16 BTDC. If it was an 11 dizzy, optimal would be lower, 11 ~ 13. In reverse, if it was a 7.5 unit, 7.5 X 2 = 15, 35 -15 = 20 so 18~20 would be the range. If you car sound "Super Retarded" at 10, It just very well might be.

Oops! I didn't notice! Bambi had the sharpest eye for these things. I used to get "Reported posts" from him daily. It's in the right forum now I believe the only "Rarity" issue is how few years it was used. Man! that is a pretty car!
