  1. I have a P82 intake manifold that is non EGR. It is webbed and not shaved. I bought it off another member here a while back and never used it. One recently sold for $60 on this forum, so I would like $60.
  2. Where are you located? I have one in The San Francisco area
  3. I would like to see a CF windshield wiper cowl that isn't louvered. (the panel between the windshield and hood that the wipers come out of) It doesn't have too many contours so it may be easy to produce. Also, the front with the turn signals filled in for the 75-78 cars
  4. Their website looks like they do good work. Can those who have gone here post their results when done. If it's as good as they advertise I'll definetly send some business their way.
  5. This seems to be turning into a "why a Z car is worth it and my experience with them" thread I'll second the feeling that everyone seems to have about the car being a people magnet. It's seems every time I mention my car to a stranger (getting parts, insurance renewal, tow company etc ) they always get excited and have some story involving a Z in their younger days. The car seems to bring a smile to everyones face no matter where it goes ( and to be truthful it's not in that great of shape!)
  6. If you were planning on spending $2k to switch to carbs...... You could buy something really nice like the extrudabody individual throttle body set up It has the neat multiple carb look if that's what you want.... On their website it's $650 for a twin ITB set up or $1900 for the 6 ITB set up. Of course you would need a few more things to make it all work, but I'm just living vicariously through your $2000
  7. The loom doesn't need to be cut. You can feed it through the firewall from the engine side, but you will need to do it part by part so it fits as opposed to trying to shove the whole thing through at once.
  8. It's good that you have realistic goals for what you want out of your car. Street oriented performance is an obtainable goal. IMO that means reliability, which is what I would aim for. Do you have a price range and budget in mind? If you don't yet, then set a budget and try to stick to it =) I would do modifications that you can build upon. An example of this would be some sort of engine control (EMS). This would allow you to get the most out of any future mods. With that being said, an intake and exhaust are also good mods to build on, and will probably give you more gratification (you can hear and see them!) The stock EFI system is hampered and cluttered by a restrictive air box, AFM, and small throttle body. IMO one of the best ways to clean/clear up that problem is with......... you guessed it, aftermarket EMS!
  9. I had the same problem. It looked like the previous owner had used a bottle jack on the floor of the car in an attempt to lift the car. I used a piece of 2x4 board against the floor, then hit the wood with a really big hammer until the dent was smoothed out.
  10. I don't have that option. I tried the steps you suggested, and I have Change Email, Change Password, Manage Notes, and Manage Attachments. I do not have the option to change display name. I did find a link in my settings that shows "Display Name History", but I was unable to find where to change my display name.
  11. I want to change my username, is there any way to do this? Thanks.
  12. I'm in CA too. As far as smog is concerned, 1975 and earlier are exempt. My 280z has been pretty reliable, and was fairly cheap. I drive 1 hr each way to the drag strip every week, then race all day and drive home. So far no major issues. Keep your eyes open for a 1975 280z IMO
  13. We should make a new thread "What I would like to buy if I didn't have to pay taxes". I have to pay, but if not..... -aeromotive stealth fuel cell -stand alone ECU -pull the l28 and drop in the vq35
