actually, they're diamond star racing circle track wheels, aluminum in 16x8 front, and 16x9.5 rear savageskaterkid: any chance you could lose the AOL speak and just use normal english?

The big gauges are 5" phantom tach and speedo, fit right in

easy solution: get a west coast Z more difficult solution: cut, weld, replace, coat with POR 15.

i work for a credit union, so I have to do end of the year process tonight. probably will spend new years here. i hate this ******* place.

On a cold morning, 2 police officers knock on Johnson's door. "Mr. Johnson, we have some bad news, good news, and really good news" "what's teh bad news?" Johnson asks "well, your wife's truck went off the embankment and into the ocean, she didn't survive..." "that's horrible! HOw... why... what's the good news?" "well, sir, when we pulled her out, she had 4 king crabs and several lobsters on her" puzzled and dumbfounded, Johnson looks at the officers in disbelief... "I'm afraid to ask, what's the really good news?" "well sir, tomorrow we're pulling her out again!"

Hey scottie, you wouldn't happen to still have that intercooler for sale, would you?

comes up just fine for me. Maybe your DNS server is having problems, or your ISP has routing issues

actually, 6 cylinders, 4 valves, 3 carbs, 2 cams.

Come to think of it, didn't the Fairlady 432R come with a 2 liter high revving motor?

no, he's talking about s2k motors being costly just like the type R motors. They're not easily available because they are always bought out quickly, and they're usually more expensive than 3500 bucks.

yah, originally from a 600SEL, Brabus stroker crank, 6.9L, according to the AKAbot from another site

Really? No point? If there's no point to an s2000 motor, which for the last 2 years has been a 2.2 liter, not a 2.0... why would honda put it in a 2700lb convertable? Let's see, mid engined, high revving, 240hp motor, all aluminum, making the complete weight of a 240z with one around 2100-2200 lbs with full trim... Add 4.10 gears and you'd be good to go. But then again, what does a guy with a rotary swap know about displacement and waste of time

damn dood, did you photoshop yourself in there, or are you that tiny? You look out of proportion with that Z

toyota v6 motors in 4runners (88-97?) were prone to blow headgaskets after a while. toyota 4 banger motors in camries have been known to have the timing belt slip off teh waterpump and pop off

1bad180sx: I agree. Even in '90, the q45 made 280hp from a 4.5 L v8. Even the LT1 vette that came out in 92 made 5 hp less from a motor 1.2 liters larger in displacement. Everything comes down to pricing: it costs americans a lot less to produce those engines and make a much bigger buck on them in the overall run. When you look at the corvette, for example, it does not have any competition in the pricing department. It is the best car in its class in handling, power, and cost. I mean, what other new car can you buy with warranty for 50k that makes 400hp, runs 12s, pulls 1g on the skidpad, and brakes like crazy? Close competition would be m3, but it's 70hp shy, and doesn't do 12s. Viper? Can do all that and better, but 30k more. In my opinion (and partial fact) the z06 motor is just detuned from factory. It's capable of a lot more, but there's always the warranty issue that's easier for manufacturer to avoid by not stressing the motor as much. One thing I noticed about japanese is that they never invent anything ground breaking: they just do a hell of a job improving and perfecting the existing designs. Piston motors, dohc design, variable valve timing, rotaries... hell I should know, I have one

woops. I must've hit a wrong button when punching it into the calculator

yeah, but if we're using the masturbation calculations, then the infiniti is only 2 hp/l ahead of the corvette. On a side note, if Honda was to make efficient v8 motors... why are they going to be making trucks with GM motors at heart?

mike: yeah, kind of like the ford 5.0 technically 4.9, and the real 5.0 was the ford inline 6. basic rule is 61cu per liter, and real displacement is 5,665. that puts displacement at 345.565, or 346cid

ah, how you should really ask this question on ClubSi.com's Si vs. All forum... answers: 1. Z06 has an LS6 350cid motor, 5.7 liters, not 7. This is now at 71hp/liter 2. japan car manufacturers get taxed based on displacement. This is why so many cars are 2 liter or under turbo vehicles, or extremely well engineered car that make crazy power but no torque. 3. "if honda made a 6 liter v8, it would make 600hp blah blah". No, this is not true, because if honda did make a v8 making 600hp, it would cost an arm, leg, and a testicle. This is why honda does not produce big engines. Biggest engine they make is a 3.5 liter v6, and most powerful is the 3.2 liter v6 in the NSX 4. State of the art? vtec? Ford had variable valve timing back in the 40s. DOHC design? Back in the 20s used in racing. I have a rotary rocket magazine I got from RacerX from 1982 that has an article of a prototype mazda hatchback, awd, WITH variable valve timing, 1.3 liter dohc 16 valve turbo motor. Just because it has high compression it doesn't mean it'll make crazy power. It just means you have to fill up with 91 octane instead of 87. FWIW, my '99 neon r/t is 2 liter, 150hp dohc, 3.94 gearing, and runs as fast as a 160hp civic si. And gets better fuel economy. And has no resale value 5. LS1/6 engines are underrated, and undertuned. This is the same reason turbo vehicles from factory make low boost. We all know the L28et can do 10psi without changing anything but adding an intercooler and a manual boost controller and making 60 more hp. My friend's 01 z28 camaro made 440 hp to the wheels with an ls6 hotcam package, and some other tweaks. Naturally aspirated. You won't see a honda making that much power on a b16a2 block. 6. While we're at it, let's bust another myth. The chevy smallblock, ranging from the old 4 bolt main 350 from '50s to the all aluminum ls1/2/6 blocks of today, are all (with exception of the LT5, that was a DOHC 32 valve motor) over head valve design with pushrods. Honda crowd always refers to pushrod motors as DINOSAUR motors... When in fact pushrods were introduced some 30 years after overhead cam design was created. Pushrods are simpler design, less moving parts 7. In short, hp/liter arguement is good for people who like to punch numbers into a calculator and masturbate to the end result.

chrysler didn't make a 440 hemi. They only made the following motors in hemi: 241, 270, 276, 330, 331, 341, 345 (5.7L) , 354, 392, 426, and the aftermarket crate 528 hemi
