Is that a Jelly Fish on the hood?

Is it a "convertable" or just simply a "topless"??

Yes, mice sh*t on a cake.

2+2?

How about H2 tail lights? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/01-05-GMC-HUMMER-H2-SUV-JDM-BK-EURO-ALTEZZA-TAIL-LIGHTS_W0QQitemZ8052442089QQcategoryZ33716QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

How can it be? Houston execute more people than China? I think your source is not correct. How many people they said got excuted in Texas last year? I don;t have the number for China, but if you know who the system work in China, you will agree with me that China execute more criminals than any other county, may the whole world, combined.

Does anyone has idea how much it will cost to get the V-8 swap done professionally? Labor, parts, paint job, interior, new brakes, suspension, AC. I am talking about the kind of work like they do on "American Hotrods"? Any idea where I can look for the information or get a quote? I had been looking for it for a while. Thanks for your help.

Last time I thouhgt I blown my head gasket,a nd call them to order it. I asked, "what else should I buy?" and the guy had me to buy hte valve cover gaskets, paying $15 more. Of course, the haed gasket kit came with the valve cover gasket already. I think that guy(if not the store) sucks!

Does Ross C has a website for his stuff?

If I only need a daily drive, not for racing, how much HP do I need? I saw a 330 HP 350 crate enginer for about $2000, and 250 HP for $1300. I think it is good enough for my daily drive. What do you guys think?

So, Lone, you do like the 250 HP with T56 combination. What carb do you use? That is what I am thinking. If I am not racing the car, I would rather pay less for the engine(I believe you paid $1200 or a little more for your crate engine, right?)And save the money for the other things. True that you can get 400 HP, but it is a waste when it is only a daily drive. It is probably not a good idea to pay a few grants more for those 150 extra horse power that I never use on the highway.

Lone, I just want to know if you are in Tempe or in Sacramento, since I saw you mentioned two times about "local stores in Sacramento". If you are in Sacramento, do you think I can come visit you(And your Z) sometimes? I live in Reno.

I have a stock 73 240Z and have some brake and wheel questions: 1) Why people will convert the wheel and brake to 5 lug? 2) Honda and Nissan still using 4 lug brake, can I use those after market disc brake for my car? 3) I was reading some wheel spec, and the on the wheel pattern they have "offset", what is "offset"? Also, what kind of bolt pattern I need(4x100, 4x112.5?) 4) The guy owned my car before have Tokico on, is it coil over? Sorry to ask so many "easy" questions. But thanks for your help.

Good Luck on "trading" with Mile. He is a very unique guy, and I think he doesn't like to sell his stuff, and that is why he ask so much for a car without engine. I asked him one time why doesn't he sell part of his "collection", and he said, "I just want to make people crazy!" So funny. For all of those who don't know who we are talking about, there is a guy in Salt Lake City colected over 100(??) Z cars in his lot.

Good for you. I lived in Utah for many years, and never got a nice Z car that I will buy. Not until I moved and found one down in the Bay Area. The only problem I found about the Z car in Utah is they got beaten up really bad, probably because of the winter road condition there, most Z car I found is very rusty. Also, if you want to see some Z car, goes to North Salt Lake from Temple, before you hit I15 from 300W, there is a big Z car collection there. But beware of the dogs there.

Mike, how did you do the "hook"? It ooks very good and is what I want to do, could you please tell me? Thank you.

Oh no, this is the most creative body kit I ever seen. Terry, you did a good job. By the way, do you have any web page documented all the work you done on the body kit? How did you do that, fiberglass?

Can anyone post Terry's car picture again?

What is the different of R230 than R200 and R180? Where can you find R230? Please advise.

What grade of steel JTR use? The strenght of the the steels are varied. There is a kind 17-4 PH is 3 times as strong as 316 and which is much stronger then carbon steel(WCB if you know what it is). I really want to know what JTR use, then I can pick something which will be stronger and lighter than them.

I have a 73 240Z and the engine is not running good. Seems like it won't last too long. I want to made it a V-8, thinking about brand new V-8 engine, power steering, A/C and 6 speed(sorry, really want these). I know that it is a long term project, and how should I start it? How much do you think it will cost?
