  1. Never heard of oil pump failure but installing a nice set of A-pillar gauges with lights would prevent that problem.
  2. Are you ever going to pay me for that hood vent??? JK man glad it is going on that car! Looks sick!
  3. Its not that simple. Are you talking biodiesel, SVO, WVO? And acutally any diesel engine can run off the above with the proper modifications. Biodiesel can be run 100% in any diesel without problems but you will need to burn a tank or so then change your fuel filters. I am in the process of building a biodiesel processor and collecting WVO. Waste vegetable oil can be ran straight but only after you start and warm the truck on normal diesel or biodiesel and then switch over to a second tank and pump system. Anyways as far as dodges go they are pretty simple. I would buy above a 1994, as that is the beggining of the 2nd gen body styles. 1994-1998.5 is the 12 valve manual controlled fuel system, these motors are real tough and can last forever and get freat fuel mileage. You will need to replace the front timing cover as a dowel pin is faulty from the factory and have been known to fall out and ruin a motor. 1998.5-2002 is the 24 valve electronic controlled fuel system. The lift pumps on these trucks are bad to go and that causes the injector pump to fail. An injector pump is a $1500.00 repair. I put an aftermarkey lift pump on my truck and that takes care of that problem. I dont know much of the new trucks. Ideally a low milage, clean 12 valve with a 5 speed will be your best all around truck. But they are hard to find.
  4. Ok disregard last post. Nice car. Dibs on the old Mirage?!?!
  5. Less drag? A member on the board has a 280z that is fully electric powered.
  6. Lift and twist, i have removed two sets like this is 5 minutes total.
  7. I can only get 22 on the best day in a 2004 4 cylinder, 5 speed, 2wd tacoma and it doesnt have enough power to pull a wet string out of a cats butt. Where as my 2002 ram 3500 cummins 6 speed is gettin 18-20 and can tow 9 tons.
  8. Why not a Dodge 2500 with the cummins? If you get the regular cab extended bed, or the extended cab short bed they are not any bigger than a 1500. Plus they can easily get 20+ mpg and have tons of power.
  9. suburban gorilla! that thing is way cool. twin turbo gale banks built duramax. I cant find any good pics of it though.
  10. Agreed, I would never have stopped for a stranger.
  11. Dont buy the msa kit. Google or search Zedd Findings. He sales the kits to MSA which they mark up and sale to you! You can buy direct from him.
  12. Bubbles, I like you and you seam like a cool guy, so please dont get anything started! Lol
  13. They are the ITM brand, this is the brand Black Dargon sales for 249.99 new. Comes with all new rings, and wrist pins. They are cast .040 over PS - I got your diff crated up about 30 min ago and it will be on its way tommorow morning.
  14. I saw that the other day, thats gotta turn some heads.
  15. Heres some more pics: http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c6/pyrosparks911/ z31 pics start on page 4 Thanks
  16. I used to get pulled over all the time in my 77. It was a great looking car with full MSA II kit, real real nice yellow paint and a set of riken mesh wheels. It was a mild stroker with a header and 3 inch exhaust into dynomax muffler. Should have never sold it! Anyways I never really did anything wrong and was pulled about 9 times in 6 months. Twice for tint and the rest for bull crap stuff. The best was not runnig proper tire pressure, lol.
  17. I have a set of these just like Bubbles has posted pics of. These are 420 shipped from the group buy, I will sale mine for 320 shipped! They are still in the boxes not ever opened. Its a deal!
  18. Darius did not get his flares from showcar parts. They are from Reaction Research.
