qft awesome! my next tat is going to be z-influenced as well

of course, how could i forget

^i used my 4speed shifter, no prob

from ZX - tranny from Z - everything else the end might not be THAT simple, but do a search because this has been covered many a time before and the driveshafts are identical, so use which ever is better looking.

that's true, for $20 bucks it's not worth it. i actually only put it on once, took it off, and then put it back on, but hearing 3-4 times seems like a bit much

i did the same thing and have been running that HG with no problems

what's interesting is that i didn't even realize that it was xray being referred to vs. dogma.. oh well. back OT!

we're talking L6 6-1 headers, right? mines as long as a bumper! man you guys got some huge ovens! if this stuff works out well, i guess i'll be welding a couple ovens together

when referring to the spray on chrome, he mentioned spraying it on a header and popping it in the oven. i was wondering if he had an oven that would fit it. if he did, then it might be worth it to borrow his services (and oven)

how big of an oven do you have??

i would go with 44s on an L24, personally. 4bbl = easy to tune, most mechanics know them forward & backward trip carbs = great power and sound, throttle response, no pooling of fuel in the intake manifold.

4 core aluminum. yes and yes. what are you using for coolant? also, what do you have for fans? if you only have 1 puller, get a pusher or two. also, seal up the radiator inlet area so that no air is going under the car or someplace else instead of through the radiator. i would do that first before changin out the radiator. if you're a member over at hybridz, check over there for pics.

ya, glad to hear you got it, although not in tip top condition...

^the head from the S20 doesn't work for an l-series block. he's referring to either the OS Giken head or the custom head that 1 fast Z built. i'm assuming it's the 1 fast Z head, because i think there might be some interest in building more....?

that's a tough question to follow. if i actually had $$, i'd be able to give you a guestimate, but not as of now. I am very interested, though.

i think the price is fair but i agree about the rims. not quite my style...

try contacting MSA

our cars compared to others you mentioned: look at the production numbers of those detroit greats. now look at the production numbers of carbed 240Z/260Zs. i bet that the detroit cars had more cars made in one year that nissan made in the car's entire run

^that migh be possible if the coolant line running through the intake manifold somehow got compromised. check your intake manifold for cracks, etc...

awesome! depending on what day my son's b-day party is i will see ya!

from the looks of the pic, it appears to be a solid piece, but you never know...

not to be a bugger or anything, but you might get more hits on this thread if you posted it in the body and paint (http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=12) section... but at any rate, is the arita g-nose a 5 piece?

you will like that set-up if the carbs are tuned and dialed in. i'm running an F54/N42 combo with SUs and a bigger cam than that has, and i LOVE it.

you know, aside from the rust and the seat bottom, it doesn't look half bad. don't get me wrong, i think it would have a difficult time selling for half that price.
