  1. does AZC not sell the mustache bar now that allows you to use the finned cover in an s30?
  2. oohhhhh opppps! My bad! carb and push rods rule your life imports!!!
  3. Auto trader only goes back to 1981 so it wont work. Use collectorcartrader.com and ebay to figure out a price, also the classifieds here and on zcar.com would be useful
  4. any other Zs in this yard jeromio? Where was it?
  5. You will not find anything wider with the same look for cheaper, sry! That wheel itself is a cheap version of a watanabe rs-8. Plan on dropping atleast $2000 for a 9 inch wide wheel all the way around with some good tires.
  6. Easter Pagan origins - http://www.religioustolerance.org/easter1.htm Christmas Pagan origins - http://de.essortment.com/christmaspagan_rece.htm
  7. I thought you were selling your Z? sry for topic change
  8. I dont even live in VA and I can tell you Portsmouth is ghetto. Everytime we do a job up in Portsmouth or Norfolk area for the Navy we get equipment stolen. But hey good luck in VA!
  9. Damn you Aux! You beat me to it! Easter is my 2nd favorite pagan holiday next to christmas!
  10. have you reserached the rod knock issue with the 7m? Most of the time its caused by owner neglect and low oil. BUT on supra forums there are many cases where the cars are well taken care of, oil checked religously, and its completely stock, and rod knock develops. For the money, you can get a 1jz for about the same price. My friend has a 1jz in his mk3 and has had no problems with getting parts for it, that seems alot like an internet myth about bad parts availablty, either way, good luck.
  11. that car is so clean. It may have some great bodywork but there is no rust on the body! Hes prob gonna need a door and a hood, but they are real cheap as a yard i know of. Anyways I was so jealous of Jamel when i saw that thing!
  12. Its fun to talk to Rick about his motor in person, you ought to see the grin on his face, and i quote "Well i will be disappointed if it cant make 1000hp" or something pretty close to that, lol. That car will be a terror
  13. going 1jz here after my short lived l28et time
  14. There was an s130 at SEZ with an rb26 in it and the owner had the plastic B pillar with the grooves. He put filler in the grooves and sanded it all smooth and looked real clean, but it was not painted yet.
  15. AbsoluteMoron was kicked from this board, well, for being an absolute moron
  16. There is a kit that sells an adapter plate to mate a supra 6 speed to the RB 26. Do a search in the RB forum and you could find it.
  17. All manual trannies from 70-76 are the 4 speed. Starting in 77 I beleive they started putting in 5 spds in some 280zs, others had the 4 spd still. All manual 280zxs are 5 spd with the 83 turbos having the BW 5 speed. All of these manual trannies 70-83 will bolt up. I do beleive you might have to do some driveshaft mods. The NA 280zx 5 speeds seem to be a very popular swap. Search and you can find some more answers. Good luck
  18. they look like starion/conquest seats
  19. If the digitals are working then I would keep them. But if they went out I would switch to analog. http://www.az-zbum.com/modification.dash.conversion.shtml
  20. This is actually my 2nd z31. My first was an 88 NA and i drove it for a month with no problems and then sold it to buy my 87 turbo. I have had it since the end of september and have been driving it everyday since then with no problems. I had to have the injector recall done because it had never been done and plus Nissan does it for free. I just had the timing belt, and clutch replaced, I just replaced the timing belt to be safe. Like any Z car, they have some little problems. Usually the gas, water temp, and oil pressure gauges do not work or only work sometimes. All my gauges work fine but the gas gauge goes to E very quickly but the secondary 1/4 gauge works as does the gas light. As Dan pointed out you can reinstall the sending unit and it usually fixes this problem.
  21. I was thinkin he would be in way over his head but oh well
  22. My uncle is tossing around the idea to open a chrome shop on some new property he recently acquired. I told him I thought there was some red tape to cut in regards to the chemicals and what not but I was not 100% sure. Does anyone know anything about chrome shops and the start up money required? Any advice would be great.
