  1. Guys, unplug your throttle body positioning sensor on the side of the throttle body. its the little black box. take her for a drive and see if it feels any different. Anytime im having problems before 3k and it clears up right after it passes 3k, its the tps.
  2. LOL mark, its not my quality of life, im just too nice to tell him to shove off. Get this, he got mad at me and went to join a different car club than mine for "payback". The mentality of these kids, its so extremely funny! So different than I, and im only 23. Boy do a few years make a difference.
  3. LOL topic title explains it all.
  4. why not plumbing the nitrous lines into the intercooler so the nitrous flows through the ic and cools down, also mixing evenly with the air before it gets to the engine?
  5. By next year ill be able to spank anything i want jk BTW, one of us Hybrid members who are best at negotiating with people might be able to talk to MSA and setup a hybrid catagory for voting?
  6. Tim, i see you got a few pics of that blue lt1 280zx. Yeah, thats what im gonna do now, it inspired me.
  7. Moridin, i agree with you. Myself, i see more guys posting on this site from Northern Cali and Central than Southern Cali guys do. It would be great to round them up and make the trip down. Even if your Z is bone stock and dirty, ugly, and in the works........itll still be cool that everybody gets to meet.
  8. Hahaha, thats great!!! When we get an earthquake over here its just an excuse for us to get up and take a trip to the bathroom. My girlfriends family is from New York, and when they first moved here and had their first earthquake, they thought it was the garbage truck!
  9. BAlford, that system is amazing!!!!!!!
  10. Had a great time showing off with the Hybrid guys today. My face is sadly burnt and very sore. Parked with Griemann and John C. Got to meet lots of guys like Dan Juday, Van, Michael (mxs666), Tim240z, RatedZ from Las Vegas, Marcos, and lots others from the internet. I was looking for ZR8ed from Canada, but i could not find him. The MSA show is a great excuse to come out and meet up with your buddies and get a great sunburn! SOME pics soon, cheers.
  11. cringe? cringe? thats totally BAD ASS!!!! hre's?
  12. Which one is your favorite out of the provided options? Base it off emotions, depression, joy, and humor. If you feel that this poll is missing a movie, and you would like to vote on it, DO NOT vote on any of the movies listed and let me know and i will throw it up with the rest of the options. I vote Saving Private Ryan as my personal favorite. It shows everything, makes you feel as you were there and were best friends with these men who get blown away. I think a movie that toys with your emotions and disturbs you is a great movie! I havent seen Deer Hunter, but my father told me it is very disturbing.
  13. The #8 runner would not get as constant flow as the overall manifold or the base plate of the carb. It only gives vacuum when the #8 intake valve is open.
  14. Something other than these datsun locks................ Hope im on the right track that you are on, because any joe can drive away with my Z right now.
  15. Its a cool head, but ive seen numbers in person and it doesnt do that much compared to a stock L series head..........for that amount of $$$. The cool thing going for it is that its a corss flow head, something the stock L series head isnt.
  16. Wow!!!! That crew is one bad ass crew! That video is simply amazing from the way it was edited to the content. What a download, thanks!
  17. im running griemanns old avs tires. 15", but hey, a great tire that takes punishment like the best of them. the tire guy doesnt know his shoe from his hat.
  18. Yessir, the later 280zx's have completely different, smaller rear calipers.
  19. Well i agree that i should get another head unit. i was into fast z's and all that but since i got this one, ive been focusing on the interior and making it look good because the driveline is stock perfect. It is so quiet and smooth, and i havent driven a nice quiet ride for soooo long. Im enjoying it now. I have more z's, so all is not lost. This one is for sure a looker though. Im just looking into changing the engine with a stock turbo l28. Here are some pics.
  20. I have this test cd that has a jet flying back and forth, front to back. With 2 channel, it just flys around on all speakers and i dont get that surround effect. My buddies 4 channel system in his tiburon has that surround sound effect, and he is hooked up very similar to me. I didnt hook the rca's up wrong though. i just took 2 channel and split into 4. Still sounds good, but i want more out of it.
  21. Took all the good stereo parts from my old black Z and started fresh today. Ive been driving without a stereo for a month and a half now. I went down to Wal Mart and picked up a Scosche (sp) 1100w installation kit, 50ft of 16g speaker wire, a nice set of $20 tweeters with swivel mounts, and a pair of 6x9 offbrand 200w Roadmaster speakers, the best $20 i have ever spent, they are better than top of the line speakers!. I made an amp box for both my amps. Im running a Pioneer 4 channel 700w amp for my highs and mids with the low cut off. Im running an Interfire 1000w amp for my sub. My sub is a 10" JL. the 280zx has a pad in the rear hatch area under the carpet. I cut out a rectangle in the pad and mounted my amp box in it. It sits almost level with the pad and when the carpet is dropped back down you cant even tell the box is under there. So i ran the 4 gauge cable to the dist block and then branched off the power to both the amps. I mounted my subwoofer in the spare tire wheel well cover pointing inwards towards the cabin. The tweeters are mounted on the plastic pillar covers. My entire system is low key, but it is LOUD, CLEAR, and very inexpensive. EVERY wire is soldered/clipped on and solid from the speaker all the way back to the amps. None of that cut, twist, or tape shit. Pics tommorow. You all will like what i have done to the 280zx, the "impossible" audiophile car. Now, i want to run a 2 channel head unit and split it in to 4 channels. Is this possible by way of aftermarket additions, like a splitter box or something? I want to be able to still tune the stereo front/rear, left/right. As of now, im running a 2 channel head unit branched off in to 4 channels by rca splits. When i tune to the front speakers, i cant hear anything, and then when i tune to the rear, all 4, rear and front, speakers play. Left is right and right is left. Do you know what i am saying? Let me know.
  22. Yeah you can tell. When the tires hit each other, they roll back because of the weights.
