4,800 rpms never sounded so good lol

That looks awesome. Australia would be so much fun

That was absolutely monstrous. When u nailed it I was like OH **** and had to turn the volume down on my laptop

^ Economic Stimulus package They want you to spend it to stimulate the economy

Does anyone have a Halon, or regular fire extinguisher mounted in their car? If so, pics?

That right there is motivation enough. I do like this thread, I am saving up to get my Broken Kitty mounts for my LS1 swap, I have heard this journey will require thousands of dollars and lots of sweat, time and tears. Dont let it intimidate you guys! I will surely not let it get me down. I am shooting for summer of 2009 to get my baby on the road with an LSx setup!

^ Sorry, im retarded.

Mine is unique, because of the license plate. Ohhhh yeahhhh

I got the damn hood fixed! It took 3 of my buddies that were conveniently there haha. The hood was unbolted from the front, had one of them hold it up so I could get my arm in there. I found the frayed wire , got some plyers, snagged it after a couple try's and pop! I got the latch and lifted the whole hood off the car! I had them hold the hood up so I could re bolt it back in the front, and then put it back down to where it latched, but wasnt all the way down. I then immediately went to drive her for the first time in forever it felt and took pics! Do you think the wheels on the 240sx would look good on my Z?

Sounds like a decent deal you got if its in great shape. Personally I'd slap a V8 in there because thats what I am doing haha. Members on here have made some good numbers on here with L28 converted to fuel injection, mega squirt, and running a turbo. And there are people who have V8's who are making good power too. It's all your preference . If it has 49,000 original miles, I'd sell it haha, are you sure its not 149,xxx miles? I wish my 240z had new carpets and an uncracked console =/. Its close though lol. -Josh

Roll Hax! lol

Oh nice, thanks for the correction.

That looks awesome, where in AZ do you live? when I get mine done, we definitely should cruise em' around together haha

x2 ^ pictures of the ride please. It sounds sweet

Is the Broken Kitty LS1 mounting kit equally as good as the JTR kit? What headers to use if you use the BK mounting kit?

AHAHAH that comic was funny. RIP I played D&D awhile ago it was kinda fun/funny.

I haven't named my Z yet either. I probably should

Ok I dont want to use the Saw Zall. Does anyone think that they can take a picture of where their hood cable goes exactly to under their hood latch. I think this will be helpful for me so when I get under this beast again , or lift the front now, I know where Im putting the screwdriver to pop it.

Yeah. I am glad that my Z is in great shape. She has some small, not so noticeable body dings that could be fixed, but I just want to get the swap/project done and then paint can come last. I will probably be spending a lot on the paint job as well. I want to keep it silver as it is the original color, but we'll see

I am jealous. $500 =/ I paid something like $4000 for my Z.

looked under the mods of your car and thats awesome!

$5000 is a lot! I bet its going to be an uber nice paint job. I just have an air dam on mine, thats all

What color are you going to paint your car? I have seen great quality paint jobs that are $3k + is that what your looking at? I want to get my Z painted Silver again, with a real glossy coat and for it to "get done right" its going to cost over $2,000 =/. So thats going to happen last probably for me

If I was getting back over a G I'd be so damn happy, but I think I am going to buy my engine crane, and the JTR Engine and tranny mounts

I figured out my tax refund is going to be like $600 including the stimulus package money! I am a college student and this $600 is surely going to help me get my Z project rolling. What is everyones plans with theirs?
