    Okay, cool. I went down anyway, and he had just gotten in a 280ZX with the 6 spoke wheels that I have been dying to get for a long time! I told him to call me once he finds out whats for them. This is great, because these are the wheels I wanted in the first place. How much should I pay for them? All but 1 have center caps and they are free of blemish. Im thinking $150

    Does anyone know if it would be possible to put wheels from an Opel GT on a 280Z? I wan't to buy the whole GT and make it a project, but if the price is too high, I would still get the wheels and stick em on my Z. I haven't had any luck with Google.
  3. And those neons add at least 200Hp per light. Those are like the fastest cars EVER!

    Make sure you crank up the volume so you can hear it better.

    About your headlights. Mine didn't work when I first got my car either. Click the brights on and off for a while to see if they come on. Mine had some crud built up on the switch, and clicking the brights a few times wore it off so they work. Just a thought.
  8. I got one off a 75 Z and it works fine. He charged me $20 for it, but at least it works. Got the car up and running the next day.
  9. Hatchback? I think the proper term is "Lift-gate". If that thing is a hatchback, then so is my mom's minivan.
  10. Ok, So i'm on my way home today, and some kid in his brand new Hyundai Tiburon GT thinks his car is faster than mine. Naturally he finds out its not . Unfortunately, this comes at a cost to me. I get home to find out my Fuel Pressure Regulator dripping gas. I was hoping it was just one of the hoses connecting to it that cracked, becuase I can not find anywhere on the regulator itself that appears craked. Unfortunately, after replacing all the hoses gas is still dripping off of it. So I looked at MSA and VB and both have replacements for $60+ plus shipping, and a special order one from Autozone is $42. Is this something I can pull off of a parts car? I'm still recovering from the heater valve that I ordered 3 weeks ago (which still hasn't come BTW) and would rather not have to fork over another $60. Would this be a foolish thing to do? or would it be okay, assuming the used one is clean and appears in good shape. If I shouldn't use it, does anyone know where I could get one cheaper?

    If it's the same radiator as is in the 280Z, they will have them at Autozone. Just tell em your car and they should have it.

    I saw that a day or so ago. Though I'm no longer a fan of the ZX (though the 280ZX was what got me hooked on Z's what I originally intended on getting) I would take that thing in a heartbeat. If nothing more than just a cool show car. Its not only a 10th anniversary, but its in great shape.

    I dunno about the worst, but mines got some patches. Nothing serious though. Pics in my gallery and link in my sig.

    Alright, so it looks like im going to get the hoses they sell. I guess doing it once right is worth more than saving a few bucks and possible having to do it again. Laying upsidedown in 95 degree heat holding a flashlight in one hand, and screwdriver in the other with antifreeze dripping everywhere is no fun.

    I'm not really sure if the hoses are originals or not. Im guessing so. The jackass who owned the car before me wasn't smart enough to use a fuel filter, so I'm pretty sure he never replaced any hoses either. Anyone know if these look original or not? Picture I guess I may try to find them at the auto parts store. I have a few days to decide if I want to order them from MSA.

    So I finally got around to ordering my new heater valve for my car. Today MSA calls me and asks if I want to include the 2 little hoses for it with my order. They are charging $17 for them. My question is, do I need to use the ones they are selling, or will regualr rubber hose like the kind in the engine bay work down there. The heater valve already cost me $98, so Id rather not add another 17 on if I don't have to. Thanks.
  17. Dang, If i lived there I would do it. That would be really cool to have my car in a movie even though its not that nice. Too bad its a Will Smith movie.

    Well, the other day it went from $2.44 to $2.59 for regular unleaded. Does anyone use midgrade in the Z? regular unleaded makes my engine knock and Premium is almost $2.80 a gallon.

    NO i don't. look right below my name Back on topic, I found a pic of the mags online. The wheels I found were alloys I think and had a red Datsun centercap.

    What I mean is, do you have a picture of what these slotted Mags look like? I have heard about them, and saw what I believe might be a set at a salvage yard, but don't know if they are the right ones.
