that's true, and even though i'm not saying that i personally like the car, it's unfair to be so judgemental to a car; especially since it hasn't been modded THAT much...

some zs are daily drivers... i mean, my car may not look as nice as any of yours, but does that mean that my car is any less of a z? you guys are being so judgemental and callous about someone trying to sell their car.

i'm not a fan of the pushrod engines, but chevrolet's corvette did. the ZR-1 of ~1995 had a DOHC V8. the new Z06 corvettes have pushrod engines that are more powerful AND more efficient. it all goes into the little disgn elements..

^^like a flathead ford...

what i was getting at: it's a little unfair to match a 6 to an 8 (for the 8, of course! j/k) so i figure let's match an 8 to an 8. i know that in the truck world the titan is the new king (according to car and driver, etc.) so i would go so far as to say that maybe the DOHC titan motor would be a better comp engine to say a chevy OHV v8.

i think a more fair argument would be comparing a chevy v8 with the v8 from say a titan. if we go putting an L6 against a V8, of COURSE there is going to be some discrepancy.

drunk driver + 70 mph + curb = me crying

yes, i'm going up to portland next week. we were supposed to be going up to my fiancee's friend's wedding, but it got cancelled. anyway, just wanted to let y'all know that if you don't hear from me for a while, it's not b/c that road rage guy got to me

i would rather take a fist to the eye than have a broken window.... wel, maybe not....

^oh so true gary.... i know that things are going to end up in the best way possible.

i've seen a 3rd light on a Z around here... it looks to be a self-adhesive flat black piece that is about the length of the hatch... it has a nifty LED light in the middle and it mounts right above the hatch. i figure it's a universal piece, but it looked pretty cool..

thanks.... i know though... i've always considered myself a considerate driver, it just is unconceivable that there are people that will snap over nothing..

ya, i'm not a very violent person, and i know what you're talking about.... i had thought about that later. sometimes things back fire. drivers are rude, such attitudes but when i show my piece complains cease somethings odd, feel like i'm god you stupid dumb s#!t god damn mother f@(ker!!

if only i could have reached my tire iron......

i got my eye checked out... everything's ok. luckily my glasses took the brunt of the attack, and all i have is a gash and a couple nicks...

excellent.... glad to hear you have music now!

ya, driving nowadays (has it ever been better?) is crazy. there's some people out there with more temper than brains..... maybe someday there will be all considerate drivers. that aren't crazy.

well, i got punched in the eye today. i had just barely left my house and turned onto mira mesa blvd (a main street around here) and was going through an intersection that had a dip.. soooo... i slow down since my car is lowered and this dodge ram gets right on my arse.... i'm like "whatever" and keep driving (#1 lane). my fiancee is driving right next to me (#2 lane), and next thing you know this guy is weaving in and out through traffic and riding peoples' asses. eventually i end up ahead of him and i cross into the #2 lane right as this guy is cutting through a couple lanes.... he rides my arse until the next stoplight where there are cars already waiting. he pulls up next to me and slams his truck into "park" gets out and is like "what now?!?!" or something, and punches me in the eye (through my open car window) and almost breaks my glasses. my fiancee is in the #3 lane a little ahead of me and sees this, jumps out to see if i'm alright, and he threatens to run her over. her cousin is in the car and so amber (my fiancee) tells her to write down his licence plate number. when she says this, he jumps into his truck and tries to run her over, but runs out of room (there was a lot of weird maneuvering going on). eventually, the light turns green and he sppeds off, but luckily we got all his info... also luck, there was a cop just a few streets ahead, and when i pull a u-turn at the light i fishtail a little and pull over. seeing this invitatiob the cop pulls over and i giver her all the info. crazy $^!#.... good thing this guy didn't have a gun.. crazy people

NASCAR Zcar.... hmmm.... maybe it's your head unit?

muffler bearings!! j/k..... ya sounds like a bad ground...

agreed. not to spoil anyone's dreams, but time has shown that japanese engines are more durable, and arguable more technologically advanced. i will still take a japanese motor over a euro motor any day..

i'm confused... that page you linked to is the same as this one only 6 pages...... strange...

there are some guys around here that want to swap in a 3.5L M5 motor into a Z.... they offered to buy mine but i told them it wasn't for sale...

flasher unit can be found at any auto parts store
