I will agree with you JL Purcell, I don't really like the car either, but he was just showing us the car and that was it. You do have to admire the work put into something like that though, To bad i don't have the money they put in to that, in my Z man that would be a cornering, ralley, car from hell!! Oh and by senior members I didnt' mean age I meant how long/ how many post, sorry.

cremmenga, ....whatever. Tell me all you know about Z's. If got a spare 5 minutes. Not alot, thats why I'm here asking questions! As I'm sure you did when you first got your Z, or were you born with this knowledge? Time left for future talkes with Bambikiller = 4.47 mins.

Hrududu, don't worry about them, hell every thing i ever say gets twisted, manipulated, critisized, and what ever else some people can think of. You learn to ignore most of them, especially some of the senior members. Its too bad us newer members can't ask a simple question without getting the "what for". Oh and one more thing try not to use !!!! marks, I have found that also pisses some people off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got an R1 Champion I'll race you with!!

good to hear it, mine to is running better I cleaned and lubed the linkeges and the carbs actually function!!! But i soon had to pulled the radiator to fix some leaks, oh well. but about your distributor i was wondering if i don't have to adjust mine, because the carbs are as lean as i can get them?? what do you think? Thanks guys

In my microbiology lab we use ethanol and dry ice to freeze bacteria very fast to prevent the ice crystals from rupturing the cell wall, I think of it as the cheap liquid nitrogen. Maybe this would work.

I'm going to have to say my car was made 13 yrs before i was born. And personaly i like my primer grey paint with the white front fender and the black racing stripes we put on her last weekend after finding a box of old spray paint!!! This weekend I'm thinking the old school racing numbers on the sides!

I know this sounds competative, but I will do anything to whip the asses of the rich little preppy boys driving new corvettes and the Ps. I want to look back on them in my mirorr, and laugh. All in good time fella's, the Z will dominate!!!

Your right I think I already took that part off,, I mean I mean That part fell off or something, must have happened when all of the other smog crap "fell off"!! Oops I really should tighten those bolts!! I know i'm going to catch hell with the smog pump purist for that one, oh well!

I had a question. On my 72 240z, It idles at like 1200 now which i can live with but when you press on the gas it takes like at least a min. to Idle back down. Normaly it stays at around the 3000's. And it gets kinda shaky when you are driving it around and come to a stop real fast, most of the time it ends up dieing. I just don't know why it takes so long to idle down??? HELP!! Could it be a vaccuum leak, possible in the smog pump hoses? because i know they are letting in air, I had a set of plugs made to plug them but haven't gotten home to try them yet. Do you think this is what it is? THanks guys

when ever i post a new thread I always get jumped on for doing it, and not using one that relates to it!! I CAN'T WIN!!!

Well if you ever want to buy an AC you can buy it from me, i think i'll be pulling mine out of my car this weekend.

how much of a pain was it to change all the bushings and etc, and how much $ ? thanks

My 72 240z also shakes, but it is at higher speeds and not 30-60mph, just wondering if you think it is basically the same problem? and what to start with first. Thanks Guys

My dad would kill me if i bought another car, and took it home!! i would have to move to CO just to live!!! even thought it is only 361.6 miles!!hmmm no no i shouldn't do it.

may be interested!!!! where in CO?

or hell maybe if you can find me a right head light "panel thing" sorry slipped my mind!!! then we could make a trade!!!

I just took mine off today!! i will be willing to sell them to you.

I am going to a bit dirrerent, I am going to eventualy go with a V8, role cage, put in fuel cell, brushed aluminum interior, rap around seats and 5 point harnesses. And I think paint it pewter with charcoal racing stripes and the old style racing number on the side!! number 43

I have had a problem also, on my 72 240z my car idles at like 4000 rpm way way way to fast. I know i have the shitty carbs on it (webers) but i don't know how to adjust them yet! Could this possible not even be the carbs? if you have any tips please let me know! thanks guys.

Ya your right it was straight forward. Only took like 20 mins! And i took it for about a half hour drive, it was fun. The car after sitting for about a year is starting to run better the more i drive it. For except the carbs are messed up! It idles at like 4000 most of the time and when you press on the gas to like 5000 it doesn't idle down and you can do like 40mph without pressing on the gas!! not good!! got any suggestions??!!

Any tips for replacing the water pump to save me time, before i head home?

Oh I can't wait, as soon as 6:00pm hits i'm leaving work driving home and installing a new water pump, adjusting the vavles, and removing a couple hundred more pounds of bondo, they say its going to be around 60 F tom. I can't wait!!!

Ok and I also don't care if its contradictory, please I can't take anymore criticism this week!! at least wait till sunday.
