  1. I totally DCarrow - I run Amsoil Synthetic in my tranny and diff - 75W90 all the way! Yasin
  2. Here you go buddy - looks sweet! That B2000 must scoot like a scalded cat now, seeing as they were somewhat lacking in the hp department from the factory. What did you do for the engine mounts? And does the L28 sit right against the firewall, looks like it from the pics and the hammmered lip where the brake lines run. What year is your B2000 (B2K - hehehe?) and do you have it lowered etc etc? If you need any more pics hosted let me know and I will gladly put them up for you. Congrats very nice conversion! Regards - Yasin
  3. scottyMiz - Wow sounds cool. If you want to send me the pics to: slownrusty1@adelphia.net I will gladly host them for you! Sounds sweet! Regards - Yasin
  4. I guess its good to read the fine print....but its easy to see how the buyer could miss that. If the buyer barked enough at eBay, I am sure he could take some action against the seller for advertizing bordering on false. What do you guys think? Yasin
  5. I would definately go with something that has sparkle or a bit of mettalic to it. Thats what I did with mine and it came out really well. I tried in on the door and kept blending the blues until I got the perfect hue. 80LT1 - Thanks for the compliments. Yes the truck has the DR30 Skyline engine in it...not the famed RB engine but the FJ motor. Has been thoroughly worked and massaged and can hold its own on the street. Makes for a fun ride! Glad I can help - Yasin
  6. Well he is has an electronically controlled dump tube.....the stock exhaust is purely part of the sleeper look: Personally I think its legit, as you canr eally here the revs rising hard and fast towards the end of the run on the street. Either way sweet! Yasin
  7. Here you go: Former owner was Rick from Vancouver: And here is my DR30 Skyline powered Datsun pick-up - my metallic blue is a mix of a Volkswagen and BMW blue mixed for me at the PPG Paint Lab. Two coats of primer, 3coats pf base and 4 coats of clear with water sanding after two weeks. Hope that helps you out - regards - Yasin

  9. I agree what DID happen to good TV? And my cable bill is how much per month? Yasin
  10. Not a Datsun Z related topic - but I thought I would share and good info none the less. Just got back from a dyno run on my Turbo Corolla (4AG engine) and I changed the exhaust cam sprocket to the HKS adjustable "slide" one. I only did the exhaust side as we did not want the power band to shift too high (if the intake side was also done). Only took 20minutes to change and make sure everything was lined up. I retarded the exhaust cam sprocket 2degrees and picked up 3hp at the wheels, and the midrange power band was greatly improved. In other words, the rpm band where you would drive daily was improved - to me this is very important as I do not believe in winding the beejezzus out of my car. The car had a welded diff, so I am sure the 3RWHP would translate to an easy 20-22% driveline loss or an easy 4hp at the crank. May not sound like much - but really I thought this was great especially the midrange improvement. Any gain is definately an improvement no matter how small. Thought I would share as, there has been many conversations back and forth as to what the real gains are to adj. cam pulleys on a twin cam engine, but no real results have been posted as yet. Sorry I have no dyno graph to post as the printer was not hooked up when we did the dyno run. The car ended up pulling a total of 202WHP at 7psi which I was very happy with and is much much better to drive. Regards - Yasin
  11. A real shame..as I really like these cars, but you guys might have seen this on Monster Garage. http://www.virtualcathouse.com/JU/rx7_sandrail_384.wmv (its a 4 and half minute video) Yasin
  12. The Prelude motor that you are referring too is the H22A and it is the bad boy of the Honda family (except the F20B in the S2000). Swapping even a bone stock one into a Civic woudl make it deadly and would rev all day to 8,500rpm. Awesome conversion - and much respect to this dude. BTW - Lone great comments - I could not of said it any better. Yasin
  13. I would try Corky Bell's Maximum Boost - there are alot of us on here that have gained great knowledge and tips from it. Try eBay for a copy or Amazon. Yasin
  14. Wow! Too sweet....sounds like you might have the hybrid of a lifetime in the making! Thanks for sharing. Regards - Yasin
  15. All beautiful cars guys.....keep those sweet pics coming! Yasin
  16. My 2cents - unless you are getting the HKS exhaust for very cheap, I would say go to your local muffler shop and they can build youa really nice set-up that will outflow the HKS and fit very well. The best part is you can choose from hudreds of muffler styles (for sound, flow, look etc) and hundreds of tips. To give you an idea - I had my local muffler guys make me a custom 3.0" setup with no crimp or crush bends and included a 3" cat, it cost me less than $400, I supplied the muffler (Flowmaster) and tip. Yasin
  17. Mobythevan - Where in CO are you? Yasin
  18. Sweet FC! - Man the driverowner is tall! Love that bottom pic against the Camaro. Yasin
  19. Thought you guys and glas would like these pics.....sweet - much respect! Before: After: F20C Turbo in a CRX: Stats: Price for the S2000 Turbo Kit - $6,200 - 500WHP is achievable[/img]
  20. Yes you have to get rid of the metal shells definately and they can be a PITA to remove. Regards - Yasin
  21. Hahahaha - Greg mentioned that he this Audi beast was in the making....talk about being humbled big time! I miss dropping by the shop on a friday after work and shooting the breeze with Gregger and the gang! When you see him next tell him the brown man from Colora-DOH! says wazup! P.S: Got your Simmons yet? Regards - Yasin
  22. Wow that is ultra cool...beautiful fabrication! Regards - Yasin
  23. Tim here are some pics for you, as I have been done this road. I have not seen any lean conditions surface after adding the 240SX. You will love the difference. I first polished the 1" Spacer: Then modified the J-pipe by cutting off the stock mouth and re-welding a new mouth to fit to the 60mm 240SX opening: Here is my non-cruise control 240SX TB (polished of course!), with TPS pre-adjusted: Linkage modified on the TB to receive the OE 280ZXT ball and socket linkage: Ported Intake - using the 60mm gasket as a template: Overall (kind of dark): Hope that helps you out. Regards - Yasin
  24. Try Venus Auto, they seemed to have built up a great rep over the last few years and also Jarco. Might be worthwhilke to get a half cut. Regards - Yasin
