  1. Funny… I do understand the humor. It’s just I’m a second year apprentice at a BMW dealership. Pretty much what ive been learning there over the past years is, how to pay attention to the tiny details. Say? Infinitesimal details? Macroscopic details? I think what I’m rely trying to think about is how I can make the best car I can. And lack of experience is my weakness however I have been a hobber forever since I can remember. And I do have faith I can build this car to fill all my dreams without totally overfilling the budget. But we all know that’s not going to happen.

  2. I’m planning out my build for my 76 280Z witch will start come winter time pretty much building the cliché part race part street car with intentions of auto X I want to fabricate a set of wheel flare fenders and play around with my English wheel. to achieve this look I will either need to build a wide track suspension or go with a rim with a bunch of offset. I know rims with offset can have a affect on the cars handling. Have any of you out there anything to say. On Z cars is there any real affect. The problem is my car is not a driver and I have never rode in or driven My Z or any Z for that matter. if any of you could help me out tell me what you have found.

  3. no it doesent run. everything is there though spark, gas, theres just not enough compression to get any real heat in the cylinders so it will not kick over. like i said i dont relly care about the state of the engine im more just wondering if its a common thing to see on these cars

  4. i just bought a 76 280z and i thought i would play around a bit befor i start the tare down my plans for the car is to put a v8 in it. i did a compression test in all the cylinders and my adverage psi was in the 30 range is this a common thing to go wrong in these engines, and how much would a fuel injected l28 sell for that is in this condition with the tranny, all in good shape im assumeing.
