LSx s30 Longtube group buy thread

You say that now but with tq applied there is a good possibility that it will further contact the bell housing....... I would rethink that. -

Hawks Third Gen Swap Parts
texis30O replied to str8pipez's topic in Gen III & IV Chevy V8Z Tech Board
I have a 1/70 Series 1 car. So yes it is a 240. The mock up car they used is a 280z, I believe it is a 77 or 78 model. these headers fit good with my car. From what I was told there was a little massaging but out of all of the other options these have fit the best. The guys liked this option so much that the lead tech whom is building a Datsun as well has bought this set up. -

I have their stuff on my car. Very pleased with the weld quality, material quality, and service. Bruce was a stand up guy and repeatedly told me that he would fix anything if I saw there was an issue. Let's put it this way...... the shop installing my loot in the car liked them so much that they have ordered a set for another project....... -
rota wheels good or bad?
texis30O replied to Larryz 260's topic in Brakes, Wheels, Suspension and Chassis
You get what you pay for. Not being a dick but it also holds true with wheels...... It all depends on what your "standards" are. They are round (typically), and hold air......... -
I wanted a RB when I first started... to keep it in the family.... then I realized that it doesn't matter what power plant you want. Bring $$$$ and lots of it. Even with hookups and favors and working all that I can this car will just about be the death of me. What was going to be a 18k build has well.....gotten out of control Have a plan and stick to it. Do you really need all of the Add-ons? Keep it Simple......

Motor has been test fitted previously and has the necessary clearance. Hell I could throw my 2 year old up there and still clear the radiator from the accessories on the front of the motor. There is A LOT or real estate up there. I will take another look at the rear diff set up. There was already a notch in the crossmember when I got it so I assumed that this was done by the factory. I am going to only have a single 3" set up but I am making a game time decision on adding a cut out.... ( just to piss off the neighbors......) -

I have all of the front coilover parts in so they will be putting them together this coming week. My wheels are due in next week as well. I still have to order the gauges and have them wired up. It is coming together.... -

LED Tail lights (My new set up by ZLEDsLIGHTS.com)
texis30O replied to RB26powered74zcar's topic in Miscellaneous Tech
Well the original lights are dim, use a lot of power, and are not easily seen in many instances. This is by far a better application than what was originally available. LED technology is better all around. If you are modifying the car then lighting should be on your list considering the weak electrical systems that these cars have that are 40+ years old. It just makes sense. If you have an all original car unmolested, then maybe this is not the thing for you...... but then you most likely would not be on hybridz......... -
It would be a long drive to hang out and have a beer or 2 together...... but I am sure it would be fun! Good luck with your new--er project.

I knew I liked you...... I leave nothing stock.....nothing.... even my daughter's electric car got a make over out of the box prior to her stepping into it.
