  1. Mildly built RB25. A 700HP motor in that car makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. In addition to what was stated above, the chassis would likely need to be reinforced if the owner has any plans of making use of the power.
  2. I think the owner of that car is actually on here. I'll see if I can find it. Edit: http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/92525-aardvark-my-vq35de-engined-track-car-with-s13-suspension-and-custom-widebody/
  3. You can use other things to blast it, ie, plastic, walnut shells, etc. or even soda blast it. Out of those, I think soda blasting it would be the safest. I wouldn't use sand.
  4. capt, how much did you pick it up for? Year? I've been looking, even looked at one today, but they all seem to be overpriced rust buckets over here.
  5. Why does he have it listed as a '72? If the VIN is right, it's likely a '70.
  6. As far as I know, the early 260Z uses 240Z suspension, and the late 260Z uses 280Z suspension. Order accordingly. Based on your description of the fit of the 280Z interior parts, I'm guessing you have an early 260Z. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
  7. +1 I'm currently shopping for a black/tan 94-95.
  8. Someone already did that. There's pictures of it floating around somewhere. It looked horrible. Speaking of horrible, the car in the first post looks... yeah.
  9. I think that's pretty much what this guy did. http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/60413-bens-lightweight-zed/
  10. Lookin good, and glad to see the project is still going. Do you know what you're doing with the roof? CF skin?
  11. Don't suppose that's Clifton's old Z, is it? Looks a bit like it.
  12. Paint looks nice. That said, please read this: http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/98611-posting-pictures-please-read
  13. Ouch. What happened? I mean, besides the obvious.
  14. I think the series one 240Zs have shorter steering knuckles, but don't quote me on that.
  15. For what it's worth, I too thought the 280Z had a slower rack than the 240Z.
  16. Nothing. But what's wrong with L6 240Zs?
  17. Old guy's hating on the Datsun... and I gotta say he has no taste if he likes the wanna-be speed racer car better. Additionally, can't believe he said stock 240Z steering was "a little tough." My 240z steers with practically no effort.
  18. Yep, I just noticed that. I think that was their theme.
  19. The red one actually looks pretty good. Don't like the tail lights though.
  20. I just turned it on. What's happened so far? All I gather so far, is one is going to be a butt ugly convertible and the other might be half decent.
  21. For the record, I don't see any huge issues with his grammar, spelling, etc. Perfect grammar isn't expected on here, just an effort to make posts easy to read.
