Yes, the door shuts just fine and no touching or rubbing here.

I hope one day soon I will be sending my clock off for you to work your magic on it. Untill then atleast I know it's still correct twice a day.

I have not mounted the belts yet. I am planing on dealing with that when I bend up the roll bar. I was thinking about putting a cross tube just in front of the seat mount. Then welding a mounting tab on that.

I will ask and see whats going on. The monster truck world took a hard hit about a month ago now. One of the big promoter's that did most of the shows around this part of the country was killed at one of the shows last month. He wasnt looking and walked out in front of one of the monster trucks that was running. Yes, it ran him over and he is no longer with us. So needless to say things are still getting worked out for shows over the next few months. Yes, we have done Springdale before and would guess that it will happen again. But not sure about any dates at this point. I will keep you in mind tho and get you a heads up when I know more.

Thank you so much!!!!! Yes this is just what I needed. Now I can trace things back and know what I am looking for.

Sorry to see your selling your Z. I know that it must be hard parting with your baby. So how much are you looking for ? We dont live that far away and I have had people asking about mine. So I could atleast tell them about yours. But thats almost always the first thing they ask about is price.

So I have been looking for a good wire diagram for my 72 240Z. This is the diagram that keeps popping up and its useless. Nothing on this one makes any sense. I am working on my coil and points. I am not getting any power when I have the key on. Plus when I put the key on start I get no power on the starter wire. All I am looking to do is run a jumper power wire so I can get spark and hear this motor run. I have a remote starter switch for the starter. With what this diagram shows I should be able to take the Black\white at the resistor and run pos 12 volts at that point. Now if I do that I get the coil acting like a short with the wire getting warm and starting ta smoke if left hooked up. I had thought I should be able to run a hot wire to the resistor. Then from the resistor to the POS. on the coil. With the NEG side of the coil going to the dis. What am I doing wrong here???? This is driving me nuts!!!! I need this car running!!!! please help. http://www.zeroyon.com/techfiles/1970240zwiringdiagram.gif

Well, I am on the team as in the pits when I am needed. A friend of mine from here in Miami has the the Alter Ego monster truck. So when he needs help I am there. Basic stuff tire changes oil change service between runs and such. I wish I was listed as a driver. But more then happy just being in the pit's for now. If you would like I can find out if he is booked for any shows at the time of Zfest. It's not cheap booking one for show. But being he is close I am sure that would cut cost alittle. Just a thought.... Maybe get a few RX-7s and Hondas for him ta run over....

I may hit the drag strip this year just to see what the numbers look like. But, I know I will feel foolish running the Z when we have a drag car sitting at the shop. We took the fastest street car at Mokan dragway last year. Street car class meaning it was driven to the track. Shes a 85 Olds cutless that was running a all motor with no power adder's with a 9.5 in the 1/4. Later we found it had a blown head gasket and running those times. Now it's apart and getting a turbo motor that gona be around 1100HP at the wheels. Again sorry if I was giving the wrong impression of your event and see you there.

Hey, I understand 110% as I said I hope I didnt get anyone tossed in the fire other then myself at this point . I have done 100's of events with a background in classic car and motorcycle auctions for over 16 years now. Plus being on a monster truck team and co owner of a hot rod shop here. I know just what your saying and bolth understand and respect it. At one of our events if I see you with a beer and your a driver your gone If it's not an event that I am a part of and I see drinking and HP mixing, I am gone. I have seen it go wrong far too many times Plus it's almost always some drunk crashing a pos into a toy thats worth more then they make in a year so....... Please dont be upset with me and I can tell you that I am not that ahole doing burnouts and acting the fool. I know that there is a time and a place for everything and safty is first with me. With that said. Thank you for being a part of this event! Yes, I am pushing for people from all around to come out and enjoy the good times, good people, and amazing roads your event has to offer. Oh yah and the Z's :stupid:

Wow, I thought I had a sickness with all my toys. Now, I dont even feel like I am in the running!!!!! VERY VERY NICE collection!!!!!

I dont know about all electric set-up's. I do alot of off road and rock crawling. I did the all elec. on my off road truck because of the low speeds with that stuff. But, after almost blowing a motor because of a bad fan motor I went back with the belt drive fan. Then I added a dual elec. fan set up on the outside as a pusher. One elec. fan stays on all the time and if I see her getting warm I turn on the other fan. I have found that the late 80's and early 90's ford taurus had a nice dual fan set-up on them. One that runs all the time and a backup fan thats made to kick on with the AC on. Real easy wire up and good shroud that should be a nice fit on a Z. Here are the pusher fans on my off road rig. They are the ford ones and thin enough that you could fit one or even two if you like.

Let me know if you need anything I have parts cars. Anything ta help a fellow zed head make it

Well, thats not what we went on last year in my friends 350Z. They had 2 roads that we had the rule of. Maybe it wanst to be a part of the fest I dont know. But we took a short drive outside Branson and found two sets of closed roads that had NO other traffic with guys drifting hairpins and no oncomming traffic. Hope I didnt start any headaches for anyone.

Thank you, they are nice and wrap around you very well. But, I will be the first to say they are alittle thin in the seat. I know they will be very nice for holding you in on a road corse or hard in the corners. But, think a road trip would take a few more stops or you would have a sore rearend after a few hours nonstop. I have also found you need the seat back up where it should be. If you recline them like I would in stock seat they lose that hug feeling from the upper part of the seat. I have been looking for them on ebay and found a few that are close. But wont trust the stock photos alot of those auctions use. I think they are the same ones that you would get from JEG's and Summit. Please keep in mind they do fit well in the car and feel wonderful for ME. But I am also a smaller guy @ 5'9" 170lbs. I think a large person would find them on the snug side.

I will be at the shop working on the Z today and see what I can find for a brand. As I said I picked them up a few years ago and e-bay dosnt keep history that far back. I dont think they had any markings or tags on them. But I will see what I can find.

I liked the " We are the only car company out there that owns a letter of the alphabet"

Ok, thank you. Sorry but I didnt get it in the 1st posting. Please keep in mind it's alittle early and I am on the slow side b4 my coffee.

You should bring your 72 rust n all. There is ALOT more then a car show going on. They have a road corse that runs some of the mountain pass's. Closed off for the public and running without speed limits !!!!!! just pick your class for speed and go have fun in the twisting hills. IMO that alone is worth the trip. So far I am going with a friend who has a 350Z and I plan on having my 72 there aswell.

I understand the fight going on here and think it's a valid fight that could go on another 6 years easy. I am not about to join in on any of that. Been there done that and know better. BUT, is there any chance that we could get it going in it's own post? This was a post for racing photos of the past. Now there are pages of text with a few pics here and there.

I went back and read the post in the link that Mike B put up. Here is the answer from that one. "The idea behind approving the photos is to assure they are put into the correct category. I've seen a lot of people uploading photos into their root gallery but never giving them a category. It gives us a better system if we can keep them categorized." So, in the end it's more about being categorized then anything. "there is a way around the approval thing though. Upload your pictures as normal and wait for them to be approved then after that start a new thread and place your pictures in the thread as attachments then you will be able to see them and link to them all at the same time with no waiting." Come again?

OK, I have been asked to use our site gallery for posting my photos. I dont mind that and would rather do things that way. BUT when you load a photo it needs aproved before you can use it. I wouldnt mind that what so ever if it didnt take days for this to happen. :stupid: I understand things get backed up and you may not have enough people that can do this. BUT!!!!! it makes NO since at all that when you load a photo it gets put up on the main page BEFORE it's aproved Then you click on that photo in the main page and it say's image pending??? :stupid::stupid::stupid: Why not just let people that have say over 100 postings get preaproved for posting photos ? I cant help but think it would cut down alot of your work load. Once a person has that many postings here they know how it works anyway.

Thank you on all the info guy!!!! Zedyone, I will get with you on those caps. I am willing to bet they will work. 2fast, I am not sure where you live. But, if you would like those wire wheels make me an offer. I would like to send them out and have them redone. But I just dont see myself doing that and would love to see them go to good use. Amjc, Thank you on the heads up with Dayton. But at this point I wont deal with them anymore. I have a good friend who plays with the lowriders and they have been working on getting his wheel order correct for the last 7 months. If they cant pull parts from their own stock in 7 trys I dont think I would trust them with a custom job. I wish you luck with your snap on covers. I have seen more then one person try that pipewrench on plastic covers . Mgood I will put that number in my files TY
