  1. Very true. Most 30 year old cars wont be running at their peak as they were from the factory. (aka not 170hp for an l28) As John said its easier to get it back closer to stock power by proper maintenance than it is the modify it to have its original power.
  2. Although removing the egr seems like it would be a great power adder, the egr is only on when you arent on the throttle so technically you really wouldnt notice it much. But still looking at some of the intakes Ive had the egr ports are just caked full of junk, I wouldnt want any of it even close to my intake.
  3. Well I had considered a sbm engine for awhile. Turns out you can modify dodge truck engine mounts to mount the 318/360. I havent done it but it sound strait forward. Id bid on the car.
  4. If you do decide to put it on the ceiling, be sure to get the good stuff! You can use some of the less expensive deadening on the floors. You dont want the headliner coming off the ceiling...
  5. Why does her belly actually look dirty? It looks the same as when you rinse off a dusty car.... theres runs....
  6. 100 ft wil get most of the floor, doors and quarters. Id reccomend 130 ft.
  7. Well I removed all my trim to get sandblasted and repainted, It wasnt nice enough and was bugging me. Get my RBR's monday, all my suspension is done, just need to finish up on the brakes, get everything buttoned up. Will be buying tires this next week also. Hopefully get the wheels mounted before school starts again.
  8. Adding spacers to my list... didnt know it is that bad...
  9. Yeah, any gun that shoots fine for $70 you better buy! For the money which do you like better, the Mosin or the SKS? I have a bolt action rifle already and have been looking at the SKS's. Looks like you can get one in good condition for about $250-300.
  10. Well thought Id give everyone an update... Ill make a short summary of the transaction. ---------------------- Jims local friend who is also an admin on AtlanticZ gets a parts car. It happend to have holes on the hatch and rear fender areas. He opens the hatch and finds a spoiler. He assumes its to the car without checking and sets it aside as a IMSA 3 piece Datsun spoiler. Jim keeps bugging "John Doe" about selling it to him to sell on ebay. John gives in sells it for $100 to Jim. Jim sells it on ebay as what hes told, and I buy it. I inform him what it is and he lies to me saying he personally pulled it off the car and the friend he pulled it off with, "John" died.... he asks John if hes sure it is what he said it is, and John confirms it (and feels slightly offended). John doesnt know about what happened. Jim continues to make excuses, lies, etc and still never makes any attempt to fix the problem. I got pissed off again recently (needed money, remembered the $260) and contacted the said admin (by chance) at AtlanticZ and their treasurer. Which ended up going nowhere, although they both agreed that he was wrong, they "couldnt do anything". I will be making an official posting at AtlanticZ regarding this and see what happens. I imagine It will be deleted by guess who, and I will be banned. But we'll see.
  11. Sweet, whered you get the 91/59? I think they had some of those at big 5. Good looking gun. Love the SKS and Saiga.
  12. Hmmm. Might check on a debit account, or possibly using one of your parents credit cards. Thats what I currently have on my paypal. Linked to my debit account and my dads credit card. I just pay him cash when I use paypal. Pretty simple, I just need to keep track of everything.
  13. Do you have any account of any sort? You can use paypal with a debit account.
  14. Welcome, as for mounts there are vendors in the US as you say and Im sure theyd be willing to sell/ship to Iran. If not Im sure most members would be willing to order the parts for you (test them out for a few weeks ) then ship them to Iran for you.
  15. My dad sold his 67 Camaro RS 327 for like $600 back in the early seventies... I get after him all the time. He also had the choice to buy a brand new Cuda 383 but went ahead and got the used Camaro instead. Another thing I get after him about.
  16. I was going to bring that up in the "Merry Xmas thread" but didnt have the balls. Thanks! HAHAHH!!! Very funny.
  17. Read my sig, just replace "turbo swap" with LS1... Please post pics of the car.
  18. He should probably reroute the BOV in front of the turbo... Im not an "expert" so he doesnt need to take my advice but he might consider it.
  19. Yes you could attach equal weights to the two and then see which weight hits the ground first. Problem is Id need to get a 17 RBR and tires for my 16's. Would be an expensive experiment... Or if someone knows a function for the mass distribution of a 17 in and 16 RBR... Or even easier is just roll the two. Which one speeds up the quickest will have the smaller moment. Correct?
  20. A 78 Datsun Pickup, bought it when I turned 11. Shortly thereafter sold it to buy something Id want to drive when I got my permit... err license.... I mean when I graduate from highschool, my 78 280z. Although If someone asks me about my first car it will be the Z.
