evilC was making car noises over the phone while sittin in these seats...lol
but they are clean lookin seats...lookin at them now, i see why you cant bend the bottom wings outward...they look tightly connected to the base and i dont think it will fit with the rollcage in the 240...

poor zx, it was savable
unless your Fuse racing...lol...the whole underbody was roited out and so was the firewall..this actually made it a bit harder to take out the harness becuz rusted stuff was moving with the harness making it harder to yank out....
I love a nice FLAMEWRENCH... What ya gonna do with that rear diff assembly
i plan on selling it to get back some of the money i put into buying the car...if you need it pm me...
Hey flames, do you still have the car? How's the damage on the front right, under the fender? I need a replacement piece. Let me know how much you want to cut it off for me, and if you're nearby I can pick it up.sorry the car was already taken to its death bed...i only have the headlight with the washer fluid nozzle...
Wheels!I want that style of wheels so bad....
Hmm... If i had a tractor...
Mario
I KNOW! at first i was gonna sell them, but i took another look at them on another car and wow
the black on black look is nice... i actually spent 2 days cleaning them up with carb cleaner and aircraft remover...they came out nice but i gotta do some buffing on the little nicks here and there... you cant really see the nicks but they are there
P.S. PLAY MY THEME MUSIC

winter has been real good to us new yorkers...with that being said i decided a while back to take out my turbo motor from the a 280zxt parts car that i brought...so afta about a week of trying to figure out how to take out the harnesses without cutting any wires I decided it was time to get that bad boy out…but wait no cherry picker…dang it!...but my friend does have a tracker…now a normal person would just use the tracker as a cherry picker but me and my friends had a different idea…
to this
we used the tracker to tilt the zxt on its side and got to work…
EvilC going to work on the front sway bar and control arms....
Wildbill getting the tank off and me(flames) about to torch something
us at work
After all the cutting and driveshaft and radiator removed we pushed the car back down then lifted it back up with the tracker…this part was a little scary since it was my first time using a tracker for this but it turned on its side decently(phew).
After taking off the stuts and wheels..ect this is what I am left with..
and just in case you all were wondering took and estimated 8hrs (4 hrs over 2 days)…after doing this once I know I can do this in 2 hrs if need be…AND YES IT WAS FUN!!!!!!!!!
p.s. these pics where taking with a camera phone so bear with the quailty of some pics

its suppose to come on again at 3AM for all the late nighters (eastern time)

God bless F body and Vette drivers for creating perfectly good donor drivetrains for us swappers to play with!
your thanking the wrong person...lets take a min to thank the tree who always seems to be in the right place to crash a f body without causing any bodily warm to anyone in the car....its amazin how this happens...
-
happy thanksgiving....i was actually hoping for deer this year with an apple in the mouth surrounded by salad..lol...maybe next time...
-
wait for the new guys to get into the Z-Zone...i know a couple of us are going to do track days in summer '07 and i know for sure if my car is done, im going to do some autocrossing (just for fun, im not competitive :-/)..
P.s. great find with the article...i didnt even know they raced the 300zx
-
neat lil vid...now lets see that bad boy take on a mountian...lol
-
good shots..some seem dark but it could just be my mointor (budget)...some of the angles are a lil close for my taste..i woulda gone for a 25-30 degree horizontal just to get more of the car...
-
if u choke the car and it starts but if u dont it doesnt...sounds carb related...have u tuned your carbs? ( assuming u have carbs since u have a choke)
-
thats such a nice 510 to cut up for an ls1 conversion...why not sr20? Its not as common as one would think.
-
i was actually tiring to do that...but didnt work out that well...lol...ima go 2morrow and see if the car still starts..prolly pratice driving a bit more..as you all can see, I NEED IT!
-
this was honestly the most fun ive had in any car...stalled a couple of times (ROOKIE!) then let evilc (PRO) take the wheel and well u see the aftermath...lol
Man that L6 can pull...cant wait to go boost!
-
yeah that would be a good idea...but it would compete with the 350z and if not then it would compete with the altima se-r... and i know nissan doesnt want that...they already gotta deal with infiniti..lol
-
i think u should put that in the hall of fame or some type of records book...
-
get that bad boy on the road b4 it starts snowing so u can get some seat time
-
i dunno about u but once i took my car for a drive i knew i wanted to stay L6 for atleast a while...even with me stalling the car to death i still had great times...i cant wait to start rebuilding my zxt motor t catch up to some of the guys on here...
-

-
i know u dont really need the extra light with the hids...but is the light bright? seems dull in the pictures...still the smoked look gives your car more personality..
+1 for a job well done!
-

-

I don't have any driving vids of the current setup...but I did make a couple revving vids last week from the back and the front...let me know if you think that could possibly be a remedy?
