  1. Hey guys I thought Id get some opinions and maybe some of your experiences with running high CR L28's

     

     

    Im using an F54 block from a turbo car, L28 crank and rods, the OEM "dome top" pistons (see pic) all balanced already, E31 that will get ported, valves unshouded and bigger valves, cam still undecided, and I plan on running ITB's and a Wolf ECU.

    this is going in a track car that will see limited street use (driving to the track and back)

  2. I have a deep connection like skib, people ask me if I get lonely when I travel from place to place in my car by myself for racing. I simply answer no because I'm with Z, like its a person. It keeps me company, its kept me going, and to be honest It kept me alive when I was in some very rough patches of my life. Its saved my ass getting away from situations I or my friends needed to get away from quickly. Its past the 3 girlfriend bar, and its here to stay. Everytime I contemplate selling her, I feel like I owe it to Z to be finished and restored to the beauty it could be, no matter what the cost. Its an addiction, and thats an understatement.

     

     

    agreed.

     

     

    lol my Z has been to the 3 GF bar and even up to a fiance bar :lol:

     

     

    I wouldnt be alive today if it wherent for my Z... in more ways than one.

     

     

     

    addiction is defiantly an understatement

  3. Im an outright addict...... no if ands or buts.

     

     

    My Z has been threw alot of **** with me and is the only thing left that holds any sentimental value.

    it may as well be a living breathing thing as far as Im concerned. Im connected to it in a way thats hard to explain.

  4. Skibby approves of possible target. kinda cute

     

     

    her cloths and jewelry match so shes not a total slob, but look at her fork/knife and napkin, not a total OCD neat freak either

    (i would have set them in the same place just all parallel, Im weird whatdawant)

    also doesnt look like shes had many or any of those chips(ie not her mess), shes leaning in for the pic and already kinda far from the basket, kind of a reach to go form the basket to the dip bowl when she could just use one of those plates there.

     

     

    Keep a fridge/freezer in your room.

     

     

     

    the real question is will you be sharing a bathroom, that may be the deal breaker. the rest can be handled

  5. i dont really see him driving a truck of any kind but i got to tell you that truck is pretty cool-

     

     

    maybe a 2 door dime in faded and bruised robins egg blue, lowered with glod meshies (that are never washed or polished) and a bluebird grill.

    with a mildly moded KA24e

     

    but all original on the body still and a little beat on

     

    kinda like phils B)

    a gem only to those who know what there looking for and just a used old car to everyone else.

    not a crazy HP monster but still pretty quick and can hold its own against any other car on the street.

     

    a trusty daily driver thats taken the bumps nicks and dings of its daily service but is mechanically in perfect shape because the owner spends more of his nights alone in the garage keeping his loyal and always trusty ride in good health than being out on the town.

  6. How about,.. The largest number of datsuns in your HOUSE....

     

    the sheds gotten full....

     

    Who's got the LARGEST parts stash????

     

    so we can raid it?

     

    Longest, uninterupted time spent on JACK STANDS.

     

    the clocks still ticking :(

     

    Name ONE member, who came in under budget.

     

    ...................... I just dont make one, does that count?

     

    Who's got more than 10 datsuns.

     

    Iv got parts for ten different Datsuns :lol:

     

    Name one newbie who can locate the SEARCH function button. :blink:

     

    Its an urban myth!

     

    You've had your car longer, than your wife/girlfriend. :o

     

    the car has out lasted them all

     

    Tony D hasn't critiqued your post. :)

     

    not that I can recall anyway, nothing that left deep seeded emotional scars and crushed my dreams :P

     

    Who does a better impersonation of ELVIS, YOU or Big Phil. :2thumbs:

     

    Big Phil of course :rolleyes:

  7. There is still no proof that the 240sx TB upgrade will do anything more for power. You are still restricted by the runners.

     

    I do agree that mega squirt would be a great start then you know that its wired right the first time.

     

     

    This is correct.

     

    The runners of a stock intake are the choke point, so adding the large TB does nothing for flow into the engine and adds no power.

     

     

    What it dose do however, is improve throttle response, Your at 100% throttle with less petal push than the stocker.

  8. Was not calling any body names. Funny, all the donating members like to gang up together now? "Im gonna go get Tony D" How cute.

     

    Ive been reading, and searching for about 2 weeks now on this subject it got closer and closer to the do date of buying the block, and that was yesterday and I got desperate for information which I needed for that reason I turned to this forum. And it seemed, and felt that just because yes I dont know the internals of a engine from the back of my hand that "Oh hes new, He didnt build this car, no more help!" Well? big deal. So what becuase I am asking a question about a new engine setup means I cant build and know what to put on a car? Haha Im learning more and more every day. If people dont want to help they dont need to. Im 21, Ya I dont have 5 10 or 20 years experience. Read my post again, I didnt say discrimination needs to be ended, what did I say? oh Over Minor Things.

     

    Never mind Thats all going to go nowhere.

     

    Anyways Im not going to argue if you dont want to help or dont agree DONT post. I got my engine, I know exactly what I need. Listen, if you dont have **** to say or want to help dont post at all Simple. Thank you

     

     

    wow you really just dont get it.

     

     

     

    but in some cases SLIGHT DOMES.

     

     

    Iv got a set of those :lol:
