My Buddy Opened a Shop. There will be Free Radio Control Car Racing All Day September 16th! It is a store where you can race 1/28th Scale cars (sorry no 240Z yet) on a track, as well as a monster truck RC truck track. Everything is provided and is Free this Saturday. Adults and kids welcome. http://www.insidelineracing.com/index.asp

DO NOT USE 0.125" IT WILL FAIL TECH! Manufacuture hit the low side of tollerance to save $$$ so a .125 will measure .121 or so. Bending that will make it under .118 and you will fail. Use .134". Also must tie into subframe that connect to the rear frame (make one). Props to boodlefoof!

You da man!

Where to buy rubber molding around door jams? The one that has steel in it, it goes all the way around the door opening and across the quarter window. And where do I get the door weatherstripping the goes at the top front of the door oppose the mirror. I bought a "complete kit" but funny how these are not included.

Mike, Sweet build! I got an RX-7 now too. Do you have the build posted somewhere. Did you use Hindson? etc.. Also how did you get treated at SCC? Cool Deal.

correct

Any ones Brake hoses rub on Tires? How to handle?

I just painted the car and want assemble it with new body bolts (fenders, hood, grill, etc.) . Any kits availible?

This is very annoying we should boycott them. Will someone host?

Any Hybridz hats left? I searched found the old thread only...

I have my 2JZ 240Z is almost done, but I progressing slowly. I am over most of the hard parts, too. I think it may be the 95+ degree days are killing me or that I may be burnt out, or it may be that i have very little room to work. I know I will love the car when done, but transferring that love into busting 3 to 4 hours a night is the trick right now. I have done it before but i feel lazy. I need a boost maybe I show watch more dyno videos or something...

Need to Vent About "The Car Bias". I bounce around other sites and studied this Carboyretardus Syndrome . And I am amazed how many people have these Symtoms 1. One Brand rules all. That "Honda and Toyota rule all" or "Domestics are the only real cars", "no rotor no motor". Blah, blah, blah. 2. Denial. I once talked to a owner of a FD twin turbo (i got one in my garage) and asked him what he felt about the car being a lemon. He gave me a look and wanted to know if what I was talking about. I asked him he if he the engine had ever been replaced, he had to admit that it had been changed at 28k. Well I love mine, but these cars go through engines like clutchs. 3. Not Understanding Physics Clueless people that think ie FWD cars can be "built up to be equivlent to RWD cars", "The driveabity of a 600 Civic is like a V8", etc.. 4. People who play on the "Special Plaing Field" This insecure crowd who toutes "Specific Output". This camp be spotted by observing the slow cars. If I think about it my "Cox 0.049 Airplane on a string" proably owns them all. 5. The Redneck Slinger. These individuals firmly believes that ALL Camaro and Mustang owners have Mullets, enjoy Skoal, and have an Earnhart tatoo. 6. The Emotional-Anti Logic person I have a RX-7 Book in which the Author feels that Putting a LS1 in a RX-7 is wrong because when listening to it, it sounds wrong. Like if one was "expecting a violin solo heres a drum solo instead." Please these Rx-7's are generaly make farting like noises. 7. The Halo Effect. This is found when someone see a great high dollar, high powered one example of a their car and belive that that power trickles down to them. ie... Ower see a 800 RWHP Dyno video of a Cobra Mustang on the internest then feels that this imbues his own V6 Mustang steed with loads of "Street Creed".

My advice.... Plastics. Oh, i mean use swing out door bars if use your car. And for cry out loud buy NHRA rule book and follow it if you are going to go to the track.

Yes the Stud are huge 1/2" ARP stud which are uber strong. THe calipers are PBRs. And the coilover are also from Modern Motorsports. I am very pleased with the setup and can not wait to drive it.

Here they are. A big thanks to Ross C. at Modern Motorsports for Tech Help and Customer Support! With 406 RWHP and a Heavy 2jZ-GTE I felt that I needed something substancial to stop this 240Z. I have installed a new Master Cylinder and used the Willwood Proportioning valve to optimize this setup. The rear 13" inchers waiting to be put on. Other car pics are under the 6 cylinder forum.

It will be relaxing, instead of holding the fuse box and wires from falling inwards on lefthanders.

BandwIdth is minimal so do not whine.

Greetings I am in tokyo now. I had breakfast and scanned the parking lot. I found a evo 5 and a gst-t skyline. We are heading out now. C-ya

Sayonara my lovely wife and I are going to Japan today. Tokyo then bullet train to Kyoto. I may just have to stay there. See ya!

I would have to sell 90 of those z to buy a house here in the Bay.

Oh. Are they the same as the OEM off gray R200 bolts CV bolts? Do they have seperate lock washers or that they have a intergral washer-head? thanks.

But the r230 axle kits are 6 lug so 4 x 6 = 24. So why did you get 20?

Desperate Need help w MM brake install. I order a lot of parts at once from Moder Motorsports, so I got the Billet R230 CV Adaptor, 70-78 Z Car and The 13" front extreme brake package. I may have lost something. It is late and I am tired. I have (20) twenty 10.9 Bolts that will go into the axle cv's and the front hubs. I do not know which. they look a little short for the front I do not know. Can some one clue me in on the hardware for this package?
