  1. Sweet!!! Can't wait! Someday I hope mine looks as good as yours!
  2. Stance Nation just threw this up on their facebook! Congrats! I want to see more!!!haha
  3. I got mine out if the garage a couple of months ago! I love it, feels so much better! All I did was ise the front strut tubes that came with the coils and had a machine shop make the rear tubes for $100. Saved me $200. Does everything I want them to, but im still not sure on the front strut bar. I was thinking about drilling holes into the camber plates and just bolt a bar between them and the firewall.
  4. I just picked up some Shadow louvers for cheap, but I can't mount them because they're missing the two bottom metal pieces. Im pretty sure these louvers are the ones to slide into the window rubber, I'm just wondering where I can find or if I can find those two bottom mounts? Thanks Matt
  5. Im looking for a used front air dam for my 72 240z. It can either be the one with brake ducts or not, I'm just looking to save some money before I buy a new one. Must have no cracks, I dont care about paint. Thanks
  6. Are there any other pics with these air dams mounted?
  7. Thanks a lot for all the info! It does sound like an ignition problem because it doesn't sound like it's firing correctly. I put new NRG spark plug wires on when I first got the car which was about a year ago and the car was running fine then. Today I fixed a leaky line that was going to the carburetor and can't seem to find any more leaks yet. It's just weird because the car was running good when I first got it back on the road I believe 3 days ago, and this problem just happend yesterday.
  8. Mine has been sitting for about 3-4 months, so that might be it. Would that cause backfiring?
  9. I just started driving my car again after it's been off the road for a couple of months. It's been running good, but today while I was warming the car up, I noticed it sounded different. When I drove it the car was back firing and I felt like it lost a lot of power, I didn't even try to get on it because it didn't feel like it was revving right. I'm thinking maybe I have an exhaust leak since I lowered the car and the exhaust bottoms out sometimes, also I noticed once line is slowly leaking going to one of the carbs. My question is could these things be the problem? I'm thinking if it's an exhaust leak I wouldn't be loosing power right?
  10. Those part #s will give me what is pictured correct? Which S tubing do I get because I notice they come with fittings? I just got off the phone with them and they have a complete brake line kit for the Z, but it costs $299. I think that is way too much for what I need. I just need the front brake lines that connect to the hard lines and the calipers.
  11. I'm trying to run stain steel brake lines on my 240z. I want the ones that are in the picture I attached, and have seen a lot on the Z store, and ebay but they look different. I want the lines that bolt straight up to the caliper. Any ideas on where I can get the lines like the ones in the picture? The ones from MSA don't look like they bolt up to the caliper correct? http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/PBC08/24-5121 Sorry for the noob question, I just want to get the right stuff and be able to drive my car again!
  12. I'm not able to order the air dam off of that sight I'm now thinking about making my own. I haven't attempted making anything like this before though so I need some help. Are there any materials that I can buy and cut into the shape I want it to be? Thanks!
  13. Nice! Is it just a lip pretty much? Or a whole front valence piece? The spot where the stock parking lights/blinkers go is shaved, but it looks a little bigger to me than stock.
  14. Damn probably, thats where i think they snapped the pic. Its the perfect size for what I'm looking for.
  15. Thats what i was thinking, BRE spoiler just sized down a bit.
  16. I just saw this on Speedhunters and thought the air dam looked pretty bad ass. I haven't seen it in the past when I was searching for air dams, so does anyone know what it is and where I can get it? Thanks
  17. Don't mean the thread jack but I'm doing s13 Stances all around. Will I need to get pillowball mounts? I know when I turn the front wheels the coilovers will be threading up and down right? I have the Zccjdm camber plates.
  18. Will do! Yea all I'm doing is coilovers/camber plates, brake master cylinder/booster, and RLCAs. It's taking a lot longer than planned but hopefully by the end of next week I'll be done for now
  19. Good stuff. Thanks guys! I will just have to wait and see, Hopefully I'll get the car on the ground by the end of this week!
  20. Thanks guys! I'll get my car on the road first and see if it becomes a problem for me. I was just wondering if anyone made a skid plate for the s30 yet, but it sounds to me like it has to be fabbed.
  21. I'm almost done with my coilover swap in my 240z! I was wondering if anyone is running anything to protect the oil pan and how?Thanks Matt
