  1. It's a good thing my 3 yr old daughters room is Nemo cause once that thing gets washed 3-4 times it's hers.
  2. Can you find Nemo in mine. I just picked this up yesterday. Horray for sitting for 10 years.
  3. Well I bought 2 ’72 240z’s yesterday. We’ll start with my favorite one. The 1st one I bought is a ’72 240Z rolling shell. No motor in the car. Interior has been taken apart. No seats, no door panels, no window and ¼ window glass. This is a true project car. But the good news is, the owner also included a completely disassembled L28 N47 motor. When I say completely, there is no doubt. The only 2 pieces that are together still are the pistons and rods, and I have to take apart those to clean the rods. Transmission is intact and still in the car. Bad part is most of the stuff was left outside for an unknown amount of time and there is surface rust on engine parts so a lot of stuff needs to be cleaned. The turbo is an old school rebuilt Rajay turbo that spins freely with no shaft play at all. Needs to be cleaned exteriorwise, but that’s all I think for now. Now the other good stuff I have is custom ross pistons, new bearings, new valves for the head, and some other misc new parts to rebuild the engine to better than new status. I hope to at least get 300hp out of this car minimum. Now picture this. A 240Z in stock form is 2400lbs. I guess with the L28 and turbo goods maybe 2600lbs tops. So I figure that with that there is 1hp for every 8lbs. Now this is if I only hit 300rwhp. Now this project will take a very very very long time. At minimum 1 year. I will repaint the car and get it lookin’ good inside and out. I have my mind set on the color – Infiniti Twilight Blue BW5. Sorry no full car shots because it’s in my garage and I don’t feel like wheeling it out. So only important stuff. Let’s just say that I haven’t found much rust yet. Car is amazingly straight with only 1 dent that I can see so far except the roof which has been pressed in in a couple of areas. Hopefully I can pop out most of it and have a body shop take care of the rest. My 1st step is going to be cleaning out the whole car and see if there is any rust on the floorboards. And if there is how bad is it. Then I will box everything from inside the car and get all the motor stuff layed out on my workbench to see what I have. Enough words. PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Emblem My block. Needs to be dipped badly. Honed too or maybe bored depending on how bad it is and if the pistons are for an overbored block. This is the 1st 6-7 boxes of stuff I have. I have 3 more + the head in the trunk of my accord. Tee-hee. This make me all giddy inside. And of course you have to represent under the hood. These are purdy. This is the worst rust I found so far. I’m told they have a replacement panel for it though and I need to find who sells it. Hooray Something’s missing. I’m told that’s a motorsport auto sway bar right there. I need to measure to see if it's the correct width or not. I call this my race prepped interior. Now tell me. Can you find nemo? Can someone PM me with a possible how-to to fix my warped Xenon front. It was sitting in a weird position inside the car for like 10 years. And lastly this is my other ’72 240Z I purchased today. It came with a SR20det in it. It’ll do. I want these JDM fender mirrors, ZG flares, and the RS Watanabe deep dish 16’s that this car has. Once my big car gets painted this one will be painted to match.
  4. I really wish people would leave stuff indoors when storing
  5. Well if they are real that's a hell of a deal cause online retailers charge almost $900 for 1 seat. https://www.amzperformance.com/z32/?page=shop/flypage&product_id=374&category_id=db36e28ec52120c0fff528f362cf53f4& Looking at his feedback this negative feedback was in there becareful this takakas are replica harnesses, his word he uses is varient fake Buyer trench180( 75) Jun-28-06 12:108070797865Reply by dirkslyder: Read list carefully & know variant means replica, ask question 1st before commit
