Absolutely LOVE the color

I would start things off by checking the fuel pressure at each carb and see if that reveals anything to us.

The E in l28et means that it's a fuel injected engine search search search! edit: dang you six_shooter!

How much is the seller asking for it?

Overall, I like it, but I think the interior needs some work to be brought up to par with the rest of the car

I think it would look awesome if you polished your wheels. It's a tedious task, but worth it I love those wheels on an s130

?

What you're saying makes perfect sense to me Right now I lack the funds to give my engine bay (let alone the whole car) a proper paint job. I just don't want it to be a bright yellow down the road when I actually do paint the car. I'm sure that I'm not going to be completely satisfied with mine in a few years, but I know it'll be a helluva lot better looking when it actually matches. I figure that satin black will end up looking decent along any color that I chose. I was just seeing if I was just going to be wasting my time by stripping everything down to bare metal in the engine bay after I saw what the PO had done and how it had turned out. Tomorrow I'll pressure wash, do a bit of sanding, wash again, and then lay down a coat of primer. I need to wash the block too. It's got some dirt over a fresh coat of paint... Thanks for your help! I'm a complete noob when it comes to paint.

I currently am getting ready to put the rebuilt l24 back into my 240 and the PO had painted over the original color with Ferrari yellow. Now that would be perfect if I wanted to go with the same color he was, but I'm thinking more along the lines of a dark green. I started stripping the old paint off and found that he just primered over the original color. I have 2 quick questions for you guys: Am I going to see a noticeable difference if I strip the paint back to bare metal and primer over that, compared to primering over what is already there and spraying my satin black? I'm going to be using rustoleum rattle can primer and rustoleum rattle can satin black for my pain as I've had great success in the past for smaller parts. Should this hold up okay when using it over a larger surface assuming that I'm applying it properly? I attached a pic of the current bay so you guys can see what I'm working with Thanks in advance!

How would you go about mounting music wire?

Get in there and try to touch up with some blue. Loving the color combo though!

So much custom work It doesn't look so good, but damn that's a lot of hours!

Why can't we have a nissan/camaro? We already have several Chevy/s30's This is one thing that should go both ways

I think chrome door handles, door locks, hatch lock, bumper, emblems and quarter glass trim (possibly fender mirrors too) would tie in very, very well with the chrome dish on your wheels Looking GREAT though!

My local yard has nothing as far as Z's go. Thats why I have two parts cars I ended up with an s130 somehow too :S

I'm really loving the flex joints and the spring loaded brackets! A sound clip would be pretty awesome!

No v8 love?! Out of those options here would be my preferences: 1. RB25DET 2. RB20DET 3. L31 4. SR20DET 5. L31 - prebuilt From looking at your built lists, it looks like there is a lot of room for you to cut down on costs if you don't want to be going so extreme 300whp can come A LOT cheaper than $11,000!

I really like those seats! What shape is the dash in? My vote would go to ditching the rear bumper

Just for clarification, ALL turbo s130's had a 3.545 r200 in them

See what it's stamped when you replace the cover gasket

Not too shabby!

What color did you go with? Can't wait to see some pics!

The NiteShade stuff is pretty awesome! You can make taillights look almost completely black and still have it shine through without any problems. You can definitely see that with your front turn signals Personally, I think your car would look great with black bumpers. Seeing them in red is kind of throwing me off a bit. Same with the side view mirrors As far as exhaust, I'd go for a 3" system now. If anything else, it will just be motivation do get the l28et swap going. What happened to your headlight covers? Any plans for the rear side markers?

Have you considered a hidden antenna? Here is a universal one on eBay. This one looks the same, but it's cheaper

I don't have any problems with Yamaha at all I am looking forward to seeing this swap as well! The platform has some potential.
