hey guys, just thought i'd let you know about this deal at home depot right now. it's a husky 32 gallon air compressor (electric) and it comes with a bunch of air tools (impact driver, spray can, quick ratchet) i think i got those right... anyway, a bunch of stuff for $299.... good deal if ya ask me!

hahaha... .... iron oxide....

body appears very nice on that blue one...

exactly. porsche, bmw, and corvette owners are all poopoo kaka heads. at least when it comes to the big D

rebuild your carbs? actually, check your A/F mixture and check your balance. mine was doing that for the longest time and then i got ztherapy's videos and rebuilt my carbs. running smooth since then.

haha... i guess we did go off on little tangents. i wasn't in the "scene" back then so i have no idea

i hope not! damn scharzeneggar (sp). that's why i didn't vote for him (among other things). if this happens then i am moving to AZ

you're right! what usually went here was me being stupid and saying that it was 73, but yet again i am wrong! very interested now though, let me figure my financial situation. anything wrong with it? will it survive a drive down to san diego? (not insinuating that YOU drive it down, just curious)

i'm seriously thinking about it. anybody know if said 280z would pass CA emission standards?

very nice car and it's in my town! too bad i don't have $6000 to spend on another Z. i know what you mean about the color combo growing on you. i didn't like it at first, but the more you look, the more you like!

and make sure you oil it with k&n oil because a lighter oil(engine oil, cooking oil ) won't work as well and could damage the filters..

^^ i believe they have mandrel benders....

it looks a little squashed on top. kinda like they used up all of their material on the bottom half and had to make the top short. glass shortage maybe?

hmm.... i didn't know that the fairlady roadster was called a "z"..... you learn something new everyday

VB = victoria british... go to victoriabritish.com to get a catalog. and yes, 240zx is correct. the 3-2-1 is good for low end power since it provides better exhaust velocity (NOT to be confused with the evil and misunderstood demon that is backpressure) while the 6-1 provides the best flow. the set-up that i plan on running is the MSA 6-1 aerospace coated header with their turbo 2.5" exhaust... IMHO the best set-up

ya, looks stock to me!

correct me if i'm wrong, but mounting the battery in the rear will screw up the weight ratio in a Z.... isn't the weight distribution 55/45 (r/f)? unless you are going for drag, that's gonna make the car handle even MORE like an MR

that sounds like an original valve cover.

okay, update: i tried swapping out the 20A fuse for a 10A, still no dice. i disassembled the T/S switch and cleaned the carbon and it's still not working.... any other ideas?

haha... i thought you were talking about a haircut.... anyway, ya it does look like it has been milled a bit

gotcha.... thanks for the input! i'm going to have to disassemble my switch in that cast. thanks for all of the input guys!

ok..... makes sense now...

you mean there's a fuel level warning lamp??? wow..... never knew that
