Z-Gad

You're nuber one in my book When is your car getting out of pint jail Dr Hunt?

I like that as well, it would help keep trolls out... Mike

silver sides/black top gets my vote...

Maybe we could have a sticky thread in the Motorsports/Events section and have maybe the top 100 Hybrid Z's. I realize that someone would have to step up to receive and organize the info, but I think it would be doable... maybe have a minimum # of posts and a photo of the timeslip before being added... maybe a structure like this from another site I frequent... Member Name / Time @ MPH / 60 ft / Year - Make - Model / NA-SC-Turbo-Nitrous / Engine / Track, elevation ...anyone willing to step up to organize? I may be internet challenged for the next few months, or I would...

Well, the choice comes down to you and what you intend to use the car for. The LSx drivetrain is truly amazing and hasn't reached it's potential yet. . The 2JZGTE has a proven recipe for power. it has been duplicated over and over. If you want gas mileage, then the LSx T56 combo would net you better mileage than I see with my 2JZ, even with my 3:36 rear end, as the TH400 is only a 3 speed (no OD). Either way, you'll ahve a potentride. If you choose to go the 2JZGTE route, just remember, the drivetrain is the inexpensive part. The expensive part comes with all of the add-ons (intercooler, turbo, engine management, injectors, fuel system, BRAKES, suspension, yadda, yadda, yadda) Just my .02 Mike

LOL I am going to Miami for nearly 3 months for Boeing 727 Flight Engineer/First Officer training, leaving this weekend, so the car will be stored. I have had a few offers to "take care of it for me" while I am gone, but I have had to decline them

I'll be running tomorrow (Wednesday) and maybe, Friday (if tomorrow gets rained out) at Orlando Speed World and then I'll be storing the car until August or so...

I think I have the same expression on my face after seeing that as Tweety does...

Sorry to hear about this Pete, I wish you a speedy recovery...

Very cool!! It is nice to be able to enjoy something that you have worked on with your own hands I'm sure the civic owner was impressed to say the least!

LOL Charles, you are a bad man stirrin the pot like that !! Anyway, keep us posted on track status. I'm not sure how far Darlington is from us in in Orlando, but if it is a nice track and the owners are reasonable, maybe a future SEZ could be held there. Maybe having something in SC may draw some of the northeastern guys down.

You go boy!!

Awesome Stony - we need some more sub 10 second turbo 6's around here

Sounds like you may have received an improperly labeled gasket.

You won't really lose power, but you will probably gain a little lag between shifts.

Amazing:icon52:

EDIT: Mustang is 4 x 4 1/4 Datsun 4 x 4 1/2

You'd probably be better off with the 15/16 280zx master cylinder due to the extra volume for the large brakes. That was the route I chose as well, even though I went with the Arizona Z kits...

At those power levels, you'll require an alternate transmission for the L28 as well...just something ELSE to think about...

no mods yet, but I won't be satisfied with an n/a motor regardless, no matter what mods I would do. I am afraid that only forced induction will awaken the beast enough for me

I have to agree with the "more ponies". I just sold my daily driver 240z and the the 350z that I am driving now is not nearly as much fun, but it does have it's advantages, like being able to talk on the phone while on the highway, no exhaust fumes, more comfortable ride, better headlights and way better wipers. It is a rather boring ride and the car feels heavy, but I think all that will change in the next 6 months or so as I will be in the market for a power adder

You are the megasquirt man!! Awesome, Mike

Right on Andy!!

I was ver staisfied with the ACT I used to run. It handled everything I threw at it and is now happily residing in another high HP turbo car.
