Hi guys, I've been reading this forum for weeks now, looking into things & exploring this aspect of the Z world, and I believe I've been changed. I've got an '86 NA Z31 that's just pathetic. The car's sat for a little over a year now, and hasn't been run since june 'till today. I miss my Z, but there's too many problems with my electrical system that are far beyond the point where I can just fix it. After investigating my problems, it's become apparent that I have a chassis short, and I am just not willing to rip apart the interior to replace a length of wire. Here's the fun part. I'm enlisting into the US Army National Guard in March, I'll be back around the begining of this fall. I don't entend on being deployed but it's possible... anyway, that's beside the point. I'm coming into a good bit of money at that point & I've been wanting to work on my Z for some time. Now before you guys rant at me for not looking into this, I have, but there's not many resources. I know there's one guy on here who decided to drop the VG out of his '84 into a rat rod, and throw an sbc into the '84. I know that Dr. Buddah has done the sbc conversion to his z31 as well. Everywhere I look, I continue to hear that it's extremely difficult, & very costly. Well, I'm a frugal type of guy & I like to about things from the aspect of "what can I get without blowing my wallet", I think we all think that way from time to time, but I'm just looking for a little insight, some helpful hints, & a little information if you're so willing to give me such. Feel free to PM me too.
