  1. That thing has got to move!! To bad you don't have ice racing out there. Throw some studded tires on there and imagine the traction 10 fold Was that someone you know that did the engine swap? Any websites for the R1 4 wheeler? !M!
  2. Okay, I think I have asked this once before a long time ago, but can you soak the thicker foam rubber doorstripping in something to make them more pliable? Or just do something to make them a little more flexible? !M!
  3. There was something somewhere about refinishing the plastic steering wheel. A search might reveal something. But if you have a decent looking steering wheel, you can just tape the faux wood off and sand down the metal, then repaint. I did just this and I have had quite a few people wondering where it was refinished at. Just a thought. !M!
  4. No problem... but ah sorry for calling you a bastard. Little slip of the keyboard !M!
  5. Sorry, I had a good laugh on that one. We ALL make mistakes though. !M!
  6. All might not be lost bastard http://hybridz.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=36858&start=15 !M!
  7. Sweet! Man, did that mask ever give me the creeps watching that movie . !M!
  8. Nope, it looks like a little hand pointing at the Z. Hmm, I'm typing in stuff but nothing is showing... do you have to press and hold down alt, 1, 6, and 7 all at the same time? Maybe it's not working 'cause I'm using Mozilla Firefox !M!
  9. That's weird, I have nothing by my left knee on my '73. There is a flasher that is hanging down, but that's it. All the relays or "gold boxes" are on the passenger side kick panel. !M!
  10. It.... should be.....a..... 3.54 R180...... man them bitties in your avatar are hypnotic. Click here !M!

    BAD

    People were laughing there butts off, but Comfortable Man did not care. I had one chick ask me what was so scary about my costume? I told her I'm 28, wearing slippers, pajama bottoms and a cape. Does this not scare you? !M!
  12. Now, if I posted something like this, there would be a lot of posts with something to do about about Darwin Pretty funny though Terry. Everyone has a lapse once in a while. We're just human, nobody is perfect. That's what... character? !M!
  13. Well, I don't have much, because the weather hasn't been all that great. But I figured I would update with what I have. Remember, this is for my '73 240Z that's 31 years old. I used 1X2" tubing with a 1/8" wall thickness. I bought 8 feet of it. With the spare tire well removed and laying underneath the car, I found the center of the space the fuel tank is going in. Between the frame rails, the center is 14 1/8" at the front and 19 9/16" at the rear. I will have a picture of this measurement that I will post in the future. IMPORTANT: I offset the tank to the passengers side 1", because the design of the tank tapers in towards the back on the passenger side a bit. I figured this will make the weight of the tank more balanced in the chassis. The drivers side rail that the tank attaches to was cut at 27 3/16". The passenger side rail was cut 26 7/8" (DO NOT use these measurements for your car! I found, after installing my roll cage, that my car was hit in the rear on the passenger side, and it's pushed in a hair over 1/4") The distance between the two rails on the tank is 17" from center to center. The center of the fuel tank is 10 11/16". Look at the link to the picture to see how the center of the fuel tank was measured (from those little "L" things). The LS1 fuel tank has a regulator on the return line, so I gutted it. This was done because the GN engine has a fuel pressure regulator on the fuel rail. Pictures: Fuel tank rails Measuring the center of the fuel tank Fuel module Better picture of fuel pressure regulator Regulator internals I will have more updates of the finished rails along with more measurements to cut and weld your own. !M!
  14. The only thing I saw on zcarcreations.com was for a fuseable link upgrade, not a fusebox upgrade. !M!
  15. Are you able to get a shot from the rear of the car to see a full on view of what was done? Or will we have to wait untill the Z is off the rotisserie? !M!
  16. What was it... Rod and Custom or Hot Rod, that had pretty much the whole magazine dedicated to "do it yourself" fiberglass. Really good reading. I think it was a September issue. Just a FYI. !M!
  17. What about using a Electronic Speed Controller for battery powered RC cars? !M!
  18. If that happened around here, I would have taken them to Milwaukee and sold them for a small fortune ...but, I would never do that !M!
  19. Sweet idea 8) . Do you have the lights yet? !M!
  20. Pretty cool! My buddies and I call that year Honda the "litter box". !M!
  21. Yeah, like when the little crappers get inside your air conditioning unit and stock pile sunflower seeds inside of it. I've been scratching my head for a very long time wondering why the heck these sunflower seeds are ending up in my passenger side foot well. After removing the air conditioning unit, I figured it out... little bastards I still have no idea how the mice got into the cabin though. !M!
