If youre actually interested in the car, it ran and drove for 2 weeks and had no problems before i pulled the motor/trans but i just had a guy buy a car and have it shipped to NEW JERSEY which is alot farther than you and he only paid around 600, so i am sure you could get this car there for 4-500 and with a decent motor/trans youd be done at around 2k and have a RUST FREE daily with big sways and shocks/lowering springs (which i promise will be put on later, if you daily/track a zcar). not to mention that it would literally take close to 500-1k to fix a rusty shell (not panels but one with unibody rust) the RIGHT way, and still have a ton of other issues.

that my friend is the epitomy of a parts car, but it only if you have time to chop it up later and/or have another z that is clean that you can put the parts in...i have a shell for sale =) and its perfect compared to that lol heres the link...if the motor and trans work id say buy my shell and swap them in and youve got a nice, cheap, z that will last. link... http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=155239

Swapping My LS1 into another Z!
sticky280zx replied to EvilC's topic in Gen III & IV Chevy V8Z Tech Board
also just figured id point this out but that "spoiler" that you are looking to buy is made by the infamous "PAULO" if you havent heard go look for the thread on the taillight panel, nothing wrong with zccjdm or whatnot but that is who sells it Paulo is the one making it. Just figured i would warn you/give you the heads up, very nice car, i think the only thing that i have that makes my "baby that will never be finished" have more carbon is the cowl that i have...but very nice and very close to what im wanting, but yours does run and is painted (my poor car wont see paint for probably another year). -Jeff -
thank you for realizing that paulo, but again i would still like all of my money back as this is more of a headache than i would like to deal with or atleast get a good front bumper, thats all i need to finish the car up and i hate that i have everyother part on the car and they look great but then i have a bumper with a huge crunch on it (kinda kills the "show" part.
-
There is one (zxr) out here in "the colony" tx....its beat up and all but it still is one, decals/paint are hurting and has alot of rust as well.

Just like the title says, i NEED a silver passenger fender and headlight bucket....in the 301 silver preferably close to dallas, as i would rather not have to deal with shipping. thanks -Jeff

This should make you sick....custom 280zx totalled
sticky280zx replied to sticky280zx's topic in Non Tech Board
Safe and sound (thats actually the second one on this car) the first one he still has but has hail damage and that one he got on ebay about a year ago. -
Heres a group of guys that i know and i, (im guessing like jerry b is describing), used to do SOME of the things a year or so ago that these guys did, now ofcourse theyre even deeper into it and got huge exposure because of the mtv show "ABDC" or americas best dance crew BREAKSK8

that sucks phil....i told my dad like i tell everyone else, when ordering wheels make sure you can buy an extra set of caps cause theyre bound to come off sometime. JSM- i think he will be scratching the kit so i will definately look out for you on that (it didnt looked messed up but only the front would be affected even if it was) Phil- Don't know if you've been by jerrys lately but my dad was eyeing that white pearlish zx that is already kitted and painted but jerry said it was a customers so im thinking hes just going to have to swap the parts over to the car i have (he was wanting to buy that one since its already done). But either way im sure if they pay what they should have they will give him a decent "buy back" and itll all get swapped over as well as me save some time and aggrivation by him buying my zx that i was already restoring (new floor pans, seats, interior was coming along, and brand new hp shocks and springs)< I will try and keep this up to date but the insurance said it could take up to 2 weeks to figure out what theyre going to do....so for now we're just waiting and hoping for it to all come out good, not to mention when it all gets swapped over he's probably going to have to pay alot more or find another company to insure it with which sucks. -
Help! Will not stay running, CHTS problem?
sticky280zx replied to WizardWorks's topic in Trouble Shooting / General Engine
That sensor was giving me hell as well, would be full throttle in first or second them BAM fall flat on its face. Wouldnt cold start and stay running without me moving the afm piece down (richen it up) and just all kinds of bs. I swapped out my thermostat and all plugs for the one out of my old daily and bam works like a charm and even loves cold starts (wont even think about dying even after some revs). hope that helps -Jeff -

Pops doesnt like the ttops just like me, and that car came like that from the factory, my granddad bought this car brand damn new from the dealership in dallas and had the sunroof/moonroof installed as well as a badass gold pinstripe job but that was forever ago, but i will definately miss that car. Nothings for sale Phil lol damn vultures lol i'll just say if he gets new wheels those will be mine. And thanks yasin, very nice car but i have a shell waiting on the swap right now, he's just wanting to buy one from a guy here thats already mostly done (paint/body) so he just would have to swap his drivetrain. -

wellll....all of the wheels, but the passenger rear, have a nice bump in them but it isnt shiiiiiat compared to a cheap wheel that couldve cracked all to hell/busted on impact...as far as i am concerned looks like THESE rota's are a great quality wheel (granted they arent 350 a set) but also for custom offset/fitment and all that jazz they even further prove to me that they are more than worth it. -

Exactly and just so happens i have a zx thats a perfect candidate Yessir we're on the same page but hey...either way hes safe and insurace is looking at it and should total it soon enough because it is jacckkkked on that drivers side. Now one other reason im no soooo skeptical is because the other driver was behind him and witnessed it all as well as called the cops and he hadnt been drinking so it really was just and accident and i already knew it was gonna happen sometime sooner or later, just hoping it wouldnt. Only thing that sucks is the insurance policy ends on the 31st and was going to bump it up 5k cause of some mods that were going to be installed but oh well, it will just have to go on the next car and will be back bigger and better soon enough Hopefully. -

sorry for the crappy cell pics but you get it...haha sorry about the thumbs up but thats for all the "wheel whores" that are always hating on "rotas" my dad said that he was going about 20-30when it spun out and they hit the curb and just barely bent so nothing wrong with these wheels guys they are legit and good quality. -
So here's the story....Dad called me at 7 something this morning (which never happens) and i didnt wake up, calls again at 9 or so..pick up and get the great news. Last night around 1030 or so he was at a stop light (that was green) and was throwing away some trash (they have cans in the left lane) when a guy was coming up quick so he punched it to avoid the guy behind him. On the turn left, the car started to fishtail and he overcorrected and it went over the curb and under a "cut down" tree still connected to the "stump" that is about 5feet off the ground and apparently the car slid under and one small branch went through the window. Thankfully noone was riding with my Dad or it didnt hit 2 feet farther or he might not be here....He is ok and doing fine. Ofcourse he's just sick because of it and just hoping that insurance works everything out and a cheap buyback so he can transplant everything into a new car but who knows......on with the pics

Maintenance Requirements on Imported Motor
sticky280zx replied to Negligence's topic in S30 Series - 240z, 260z, 280z
Well pete at any rate, go with the bigger injectors, you can run them even if you dont need them something like a 440-550 on that motor wont hurt especially if your adding that standalone, you might even be able to get away with a SAFC although i wouldnt put alot of faith in it or tuning with it (hence me suggesting a full standalone instead of a piggyback). If you get on zilvia.net im sure you can get alot better answers as well as other sr20/240sx related sites, We have a company down here called "j-hot" and ive heard nothing but good from them but alot of bad from other "importers" that are within dallas as well. -Jeff -
What does an air regulator actually do?
sticky280zx replied to CAMarten's topic in S30 Series - 240z, 260z, 280z
can we get some pics of what youre talking about? -
That car is familliar to me and VERY scary...the guy lives only 10-15 mins away from me. But I have seen it in action and it is by far a nasty nasty toy.
-
haha joel....ok paulo please deal with the language barrier from now on, but read this again.... YOU SENT ME 2 FRONT AIRDAMS....I SOLD 1 TAILLIGHT PANEL I BOUGHT ON EBAY...now please shut up and refund my money, if you want YOUR parts WHICH I STILL HAVE SITTING RIGHT HERE NEXT TO ME, BACK...THANKS "funny how you didnt have trouble asking for retail price on something quoting you... JUST PLAIN DONT FIT." "don't call me a retard, im not." "the chrome trim is only an option it has nothing to do as far as how the panel mounts, you can use them or not." "the second picture has them if you didn't see them." < "that first car dosnt even have the crome piece installed." < / Thank you for further proving your lack of reading comprehension and not notice that i said nothing about the second picture, as i can plainly see that it is in it.

Just pointing this out but i still have your panel wise guy, i also bought one on ebay thats the one i sold to a member. Thanks for trying to be in my business but next time get your facts straight. Also let me make this very clear for you, IF YOU WANT YOUR SH!T BACK, i need my refund in paypal by the end of this week if not, i will be coming to cali soon and deal with it then, and if I cant get in contact with you then i will be taking you to small claims court and have it settled there. About those pics you just posted, FYI incase you're blind or a ra-tard that first car dosnt even have the crome piece installed. I think I speak for everyone when I say that your products arent up to snuff, inferior, & JUST PLAIN DONT FIT. You dont do what you say or sell a product that is up to grade, i think that you would have alot better responses and cash flow if you 1. fixed the product, and 2. learn how to run a business. The reason everyone has to communicate with you through hybrid is you dont pick up the phone or call customers back IF the phone isnt disconnected. Same goes for your email.

I was about to say the body isnt so stright on the right but....I have two panels that fit the lights well. I dont know about actually in the whole thing but the lights do fit (i just sold one of them) but i have the other one and after i get the other things on this car done i will be testing it out and if it doesnt fit i will be making a trip to california (as i do atleast 3 times a year) and will be setting things up to get this settled and if its not i will be taking legal action because i am tired of the b/s that keeps happening with no phone calls, return calls, emails, etc.
