SJCURTIS what do you think of the early E88 heads? I have pinging problems with my 10:1 compression ratio. It has the F54 Block and Electronic ignition I'm told the N47 Needles will help to correct this problem as it makes the compression chamber richer at higher revs. Gav:classic: PS: I've been looking for a E31 engine head I'll be looking for a E30 from now on. I have a spare P90 also :devious:

This is a common question. Alot has to do with US laws. Apparently there was Gross and Net Horsepower Gross being the total power of the engine with all accessories belts etc.. disconnected. EG: Alternator, Air Con and run in a perfect environment. The other NET is a more reliable and accurate reading of horsepower with all it's components connected etc... So this may explain the discrepancies. There's more detail about it at http://www.geocities.com/zgarage2001/z.html hope this helps.:classic:

Alot of work there for around $400 it's a good deal. Although those floors are worse than he makes out under that tar mat I'm sure there's rust lurking. The bonnet is rooted engine not running interior missing bits apart from seats. I hope someone is patient if I didn't have a Z I'd be interested I guess bit scared about the rust issues under that paint but...

The Video Clip is of "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" I'm d/l it off Kazaa now :classic:

I forget which Song it is but it's definately a U2 one. Bono actually rolls over the top of a black pearl 280z in vegas.

Mr C Thank you so much. I downloaded the video and saved it with all my other Z stuff should be interesting to see later.

I just luv the girls washing the 240z I've tried to get my girlfriend into a bakini to wash my car hasn't worked yet :classic: WHen it does I'll share pictures.

Please do not get me started on the wiggles. I work in a video shop and I get reminded of this headache almost everytime I work. Apparently there one of our biggest exports and make heaps of money. I wonder if I dress up like an idiot sing stupid songs and have no fashion sense what so ever. Maybe I'll become rich too :tapemouth .

Sorry if this was mentioned above but didn' not read as was in hurry. I've done an introductory welding course and was told to get a good weld you need an uncontaminated base to work with otherwise welds will be messy etc.... and may not even stick.

I don't think I passed can I do a retest :stupid:

Please provide more info ie: What year is your Z for starters. Is it a 280zx 280z 240z etc... Fuel Injected??? Carbs? Electronic Ignition, Points Distributor. From the limited info I can think of a few things. 1.) Flooding 2.) Fuel Pump but you say it goes away. 3.) Something electronic if fuel injected.. 4.) Spark plugs? Leads?? Coil.

KGC10 Skyline Coupe if I remember correctly these are the non GTR coupe's but basically the same shape car. Powered by the L20 engine. So it would share a few things I'd assume the gearbox would interchangeable and the differentials. I recently read an article about one of these which had been modified to look like a GTR version KPGC10. It had a worked L28 with over 300HP non turbo. Sounds like alot of fun. If anyone would know about the mechanicals and their similarities to the Z I think it would be Alan. Sorry Alan to involve u .
