  1. I was 11 when that was a new bike.... I wanted a CR80...Like most kids getting a bike was dependant on grades so I busted butt got straight A's and they bought me a TLR200 Honda Reflex instead--lol (damn it) Friends down the street had a YZ, a CR and a KX 80 (all new '87's) and they took great pleasure in handing me my butt everytime we rode!! But what awesome memories! Good luck with the CR and post some pics of it.. Id love to see the bike that kicked my butt everyday after school for 3 years..lol
  2. I obsessed over that bike as a kid!!! I am soo jealous!
  3. HAHAA! Im trying to find the "cop tires, cop brakes, cop motor" scene! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciKR3KzTiiA&feature=related
  4. Every time I put some money into it to upgrade or improve the performance something else will break. gogriz91, you hit the nail right on the head there!!
  5. Congrats...remember, a Z is a living document, it's never finished...Sounds like a Snow Patrol song in the making..lol Congrats on the good find and the beginning of an awesome project! Cant wait to see pics and hear about your progress.
  6. Im only 31, and have owned 20 some odd Z cars since I was 15...not all running drivers of course, but none the less... all have been a-hole cars to deal with. The 77 turbo Im driving now is the longest time owned Z car Ive ever had.. Ive blown 3 motors, 2 5 speeds and slew of other smaller parts in it... it makes me crazy! Its unpredictable.. one day its sputtering, popping and doing dumb stuff in front of hot girls the next day its boiling the tires through 3rd gear wasting a Mustang.. and for some weird reason no other car, 16 years later, feels like a Z does.. Ive tried for 16 years to describe why Im stuck on a car that makes people think Im poor...lol Its like someone on one of these forums said "Z Cars = Crack"...lol I gave up explaining it to others, and a lot more time spent on boost.
  7. Oh man,. Tony's Pizza!!! I used to hit the one in Watauga up all the time, I was damned near next door to them!! Sweet! I am sooo there... now Ive got 3 days to get the Z in a sealer coat before then!
  8. Im just thinking how interesting Phils vid'z are going to be with all that power being channeled thru a non-lsd diffy..lol that should make some good watching right there! Im planning on Thursday cowtown meet... tell me where and when?? By the way Phil, if worst comes to worse, Ive got a diffy out of an 83' NA ZX sitting on the bench at work in Duncanville you can use.
  9. Like on Lampoons American Vacation.. the car lot dealer tells him .."You think you hate it now...but just wait till' you drive it!!"
  10. Thats a pretty cool starting point for a fun ride Gollum! Im thrilled for ya'! Cant wait to see what you end up doing with it.
  11. Haahaha cool, Phil!! Ive been watching your progress since day one on here and youtube.. Ive been out there on the same backroads off Duncanville burning rubber for years..lol... your progress keeps me motivated on my 77' turbo!! In just a few short months youve eclipsed what Ive been doing and inspired me a lot. Sigh.. guess its Holset time..lol.. keep up the great work!
  12. Hobby Town USA in Arlington Tx carries a couple of those exact models.. I know.. Ive got 2..hehehe
  13. Monty Burns.. "Excellenttttt!!!"
  14. Ive used him before, no complaints, I left him positive feedback.
  15. Buy it and tinker with it just for the fun of it...
  16. I wonder how a rocket powered 240 would do?? heheh...
  17. Good mileage, good torque great daily driver.. so..whats in store for it now?
  18. Moby, awesome looking RX! I love those cars...
  19. Theres no way thats Paris' poo--lol
  20. I test drove a new Civic Si, so the Z barfed up a differential, so I sold its boost controller--lol.. its been behaving since! So in turn, I bought a new diff today, new mounts, and new u joints.. its give n' take with these things man! One of these days, we're gonna see eye to eye.
