What was that like having 500mph of wind blowing by you I bet it was a RUSH!!!! very cool!

I'm new to the Z's also and i was wondering the same, but was afraid "some" people would jump all over me for asking that.

Well put, my friend!!!

NO thats cool, Unlike some guys, i don't mind chat in my threads!! I do have an electric guitar, I got it last summer but I ended up working like 75 hr weeks all summer and then college started up agains so i havn't had much time for her. I do like it I just don't know if i will ever get to it. Have been thinking about selling it for Z parts, or a welder or something. If anyone is interested it is a schecter, I paid like $600 for it and it was on sale from like $750.

No silly's this means, I'm going to go back in time, and take POR 15 with me and cover my car with it so it will be nice for me now, and then slap the hell out of the guy who bondoed the whole thing! I may set myself up a trust fund or something to build intrest till today so i can go get out the $$$$ now!!!

Same with my camaro, If you ever see a newer camaro, firebird, and i think corvette, there are sheilds over the wipers to protect them from wind. In my camaro when you turn them on they lift up from behind the sheild and then start going, and when your done they lower back down.

i like the series 169 on the link i posted above. i know they ar fwd but i heard it will work, does anyone think any of these 17" 169's would work? and if so what size? Thanks again guys!

HOLY SHITA! YOUR RIGHT! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS MAN??

then I would call that a waste of money that should have been spent on improving performace, or ice cream or something cool like that. get it cool like that!! HA HA

OK OK so I meant In a Car??

Thanks for the info. zguitar71!!! by the way from your name, do you play guitars??

Do what I did, pull the sterio and speakers out and enjoy the sound of the engine and the extra space!

That is what i want to do with my car! Keep it the same retro look with the joys of modern performance. I would love to talk to you on the phone, i am looking into engines right now. If i could call you some time and talk to you about what all had to be done for you and how much of a pain it was, i would be in your debt forever! Thanks hope to hear from you soon.

Not to fast for, the Randy Stevens who owns 1st interstate Inn, a huge arse motel !! he had it turboed. AND I QUOTE " I spared no expence." so the guy is a cocky rich old fart, hell at least he let me top out his car! and like you said at 190 you would think the speedo has to be off by a bit? wouldn't you?

ok so the 240z's lug pattern is 4 on 4.5 right? I think i found some rims for that, but does anyone know what offset means? and what it is for the 240's, i see alot of rims at +38 and + 42?? oh and one more thing what is BSM, it says BSM 5.88. THANKS

at 189 i litterally could not focus on anything under 50ft in front of me because it was there and gone before i could see it, and the dotted lines where completly solid!! after that the adrenaline was flowing so much i couldn't stop my body from shaking! what a rush!

Like i said my best was 189 in a Z06 corvette, 144 in my 1967 firebird, 141 in my 1999 camaro, 178 on a yamaha R1 champion edition (although I was there when my cousin shut it off at 198mph) , and so far around 90 in the Z before I get to scared because it shakes like a motherfo!!

I see alot of you talking about going fast. I was just wondering how fast, fast is to everyone? I personally love speed, my top was 189 mph in a Z06, might have gotten close to 200 but ran out of road. ohh well there is always another time to try!

I"m going to paint mine chevy metalic pewter, with metalic graphite racing stripes and metalic graphite oldschool racing number 43 on the side, all topped off with a $^!# load of clear coats to make it shine!. With some 17" rims. WIll Look So Sweet!!!! hell yas

so you don't know what it means!!?? Anyway i'm tired of you always agueing with me, I could give a $^!# about your view, pretty much all you ever do is post funny bones and get on peoples nerves. This will be my last post to you, i'll be the better man and leave. feel free to distroy my name when i'm gone!

If I even thought you knew what anal retentive means I might be offended by that!! and i said " sometimes i use it because i'm in a hurry and sometimes i use it to be the same as the others!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the info. Budget is a factor right now but i thought i could atleast look into it. Thanks again for you info.

Man, why do you have to be so anal retentive? I do have 2 manuals, both of which said sh*t about the trans fluid. And as far as getting under my car and looking, i can't really do that I am off at college as i have told you before and can't just walk out my door and look, I have to drive an hour home to do that! So get off my back!!!

I have a 1972 datsun 240z, it currently has Rear-p215 60 R14 and Front-175 Sr14 tires on it. I was looking at getting larger rims bc i saw a z with similar rims on it and it actually looked really good. They were american eagle 169 rims http://www.eaglewheels.com/index.htm I know these are front wheel drive rims, but i have heard if you put a spacer or adapters on it they too fit. Just wondering if anyone has any info on this subject and how big of rims and tires i would be able to go with, on a stock z. I was hoping for 17 inch rims? At have looked through the fourms and haven't found much about the spacers and fwd rims. Please Help.

True true my friend, I have read some about this conversion and I do like the v8 conversion idea but i was worried about weight like you. After talking to many people that have done this, they say you can easily fix this prob. Some guys said, put the battery in back, aluminum heads ect. and maybe a few more minor adjustments and you have the same as factory weight ratio. I was thinking I bet mine is off slightly right now, I have a L24 engine in it now and I took out all the smog junk, and I am taking out the A/C this weekend. should help!! But i do hear you, you have to love the hills and curves with these wonderful cars!!!!
