  1. Hey all, I have had some internet issues lately, so I haven't been by for a while..... Glad my spoiler is helping some people out. When the spoiler was made, we just kept shaping, there was no real mold or pattern used. As far as the curve, it was curved a little originally, but mostly to make it a little stronger against the flow of the air. When we bolted it on it just matched the curve of the rear anyway. We put a slight bend in it starting just above the mounting holes, about equal to the slope of the hatch. So our thoughts were that with the curve of the spoiler and the angle bent in, the spoiler would have a little more rigidity. I hope that makes sense?
  2. Nice!! That Z looks pretty flared already, Do you really want ZG's?
  3. Installing my brother's turbo motor, we had an old electric fan laying around.....I decided to test it to see if it worked.....it worked well enough to rip the skin off of my left middle and ring fingers!! It hurt, but not as much as you would think. I tried to get the Docs at the E-room to let my buddy take pictures but they wouldn't let him in the room. That was/is my worst automotive injury.....and by far my most stupid!
  4. Yep, we'll up to getting together. Pm me you phone number.
  5. A buddy is doing that job right now here in Tucson, I will post pics as his work progresses. off topic; I LOVE TVR !!!! Wish we had them in the States.
  6. They spent too much time with "Hooked on Phonics" it seems.
  7. Thanks guys! Yep, just your standard MSA urethane 240z air dam. No bumper, with a 280zone (pm him for more info) designed hood.
  8. Thanks. In that pic, I had really tall Tokico springs so I Chopped them! I took out 2 coils in the front and 2.5 coils in the rear. The push this caused was unbelievable. I now have coil-overs.
  9. It seems that more people will tell that they owned a Z than there were Z cars produced originally!
  10. Racing........ Cruising................ On top of Kitt Peak...............
  11. True, anyone of us is willing to pick you up. Well, except "Dr Evil"......he took his passenger seat out.
  12. Agreed!! Let's get together! What sounds good to you? Getting some Mexican? Something else? Doesn't really matter, any excuse to hang out and talk with fellow Z freaks is ok with me!! Jon
  13. I just purchased a set of CF flares from a buddy of mine. My car is not perfect by any means so this is the first step in making it look as nice as it drives.
  14. In a mixed group, meaning open running with no groups (test day), use your hazards if you are on a cool down lap. Not everyone is on the same schedule and needs to know that you are moving significantly slower.
  15. Compomotive 15x8 225-15-50 front 15x8.5 225-15-50 rear Before coil-overs...................

  17. We have a bunch of us in AZ that race all of the time. Competively? With each other for sure. We have a few organizations out here; ProAutoSports (ASA), ClubRacingArizona (NASA) and of course SCCA. SCCA seems to be the most restrictive. We also rent a track on occasion and run our own deal, that is a lot of fun!
  18. I am rather partial to the flat black scheme myself........................
  19. 1970 240z...The Black. Took a long time to come up with that name I tell ya, because, well it's black.
