  1. I think a big sam type air dam would look sweet in conjunction with the Gnose... I saw one on a Japanese z car site... I'll see if I can dig one up...
  2. http://www.turbobuicks.com/members/scottiegnz/vette-irs-swap.htm
  3. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=101636&highlight=corvette+differential found it on first search first page... I guess I am just good... not in a z but close...
  4. I think that was one of the Admin's signatures... Or at least one of the cool people like the admins..
  5. AWESOME!!! It looks like the headllights line right up with the fenders! Thanks Ken for the update!
  6. meth evaporates at a lower temperature than water will so it can get the charge cooler. Plus it has a high octane rating so it burns out better (just my thinking)...
  7. imagine trying to get a tranny and drivetrain for that beast!!!
  8. That would work with a properly setup torch. If the torch is not properly setup then it could burp and cut the casing.
  9. 375 pounds for 700+ horsepower...and only $13k!!
  10. The PO of my Z said he used to ride in his Dad's 240Z by sitting on the rear floor and they would slide the seats forward a little so he could put his feet down. You could bolt a child racing style seat into the floor..
  11. the needles would bepretty hard to do I think. If you have looked at them the angle on the needles is very slight. If you had a micro sized lathe and didn't mind pulling your carbs apart 500 times to regrind the needles to the proper size then go for it! Then the problem of getting bowls set up right... Anywhere over 8-10 PSI would be hard to tune I think. Whenever you wanted to go up on boost you would have to change the needles. Good idea I think and good luck!
  12. http://www.speedtv.com/features/855/ pretty much a one time thing from the looks of it.
  13. hmm... what if we race the L6 Z and the V8 Z against each other on pinks? I think that would be pretty cool... and it looks like the show provides the $$$$
  14. hmm..the new pinks show does not make you risk your car.. you race for 2 grand...no negotiations or any of that nonsense...makes it a better show to watch IMO.
  15. yeah... The Stig was in the 260Z...And yes the LATE 260Z was the slowest Z made in the last 37 years (production started in 69)... it had the heavier 280Z type crash bumpers...
  16. I think something different should be done on this build: Way less alcohol consumption... It just raised too many questions before of where the donated money was going...I mean there were pics of coolers full of alcoholic beverages... I will just post links to pictures so you don't have to see it... These are all pictures in the pinks album... http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=116505 http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=116505 http://album.hybridz.org/data/638/medium/Fuel_01.jpg http://album.hybridz.org/data/638/medium/DSC07377.jpg http://album.hybridz.org/data/638/medium/DSC07355.jpg It just seemed a little excessive on the last build... and more... http://album.hybridz.org/data/638/medium/DSC08042.jpg http://album.hybridz.org/data/638/medium/DSC08037.jpg
  17. I was thinking of implementing the rust-eze logo on my car somewhere...That would be pretty cool... oh btw... look at the birthday list today. forgot the pic..
  18. yeah it has style I suppose... but it is not the best for a high performance Z... I mean if some kid came on here swaped in a stock honda 1.6 liter motor and a truck Dana 60 out back would he get praise about his craftsmanship? IMO function before "style". 3 wheels are not better than 4 for performance unless you only plan on going in a straight line (Drag racers still have to turn around at the end of the track). End of rant...
  19. you are pure evil veritech..lol to be brutally honest
  20. I think it will be a little hard to find a bucket of Xbox green paint that could be used on metal... IF it was rustoleum I could drip a perimeter and fling some drops of it on the hood...Then roll the middle of it to not be too thick. Of course I could do one of those little scared guys from the Xbox game HALO(blue blood)...
