240hoke

heh, just IMO. When cleaned up they can be made sick like the above one. And ive see nteh motor youre building I dont think it will be anywhere near slow!

looks nice remind me of my old 260z, like hte white on black. I seriously thought about doing my 240z white again. I dont think there is a better choice to hid body work and imperfections, dark colors jsut show everything... I found that out the hard way.

I have zg's on my s30, and I dont see why they couldnt be made to easily work. They are just very thin fiberglass, quite flexible and would be easy to modify with a little glass and resin. Im usually not to found of the 280zx, but that widebody one is absolutly nasty! I love the front end and the zg's look great. I have also see zg's on 300zx's with wats and that sure does look good at well!

Ive got a 3.7 laying around if you want one, but I think its time you go LSD. Drags slicks and a z32 tranny got to it I guess!

Thanks for the pics. that roadster sure does look nice, Ive never seen one done so clean! Rear of the car looks fantastic.

Awesome video man, Love seein it out on the street. Find a 3 lane road so you can tape from the side might can get a better prospective of the speed. How much boost was the 350z running? Oh yea no more of that music btw, Garret for got to mention that it was on a closed off road by the local authorities who gave him permission for the race and the filming. I think he forgot to mention that at the end of the video.

wait wait there is a smily for this I always like to see shop pictures!

I have two more kits left, I will prolly not make any more of these... if anybody is interested lemme know .

OUCH!!!!! Dude makes me cringe when I read that. I remeber my dad telling me about breaking his jaw. He said he put hamburgers in the blender so he could eat them through a straw!!! Also I think he said he lost 50 lbs. Ick hope things go decently well for ya! Now think about this..... you were on a mountain bike doing 20..... think about the Chopper guys that think they are badass wearing their skull helmets. I chuckle everytime i see them. I dont mind donning on my fullface helmet everyday when I hop on my cbr.

Very nice man!!! I see you have been workin your but off. Hope your likin that new turbo. I got some catching up to do, I think a meth kit is in order. Seem like 500hp is very feasible with a cam and a stock head.

check the resistence at each terminal when its open and closed, that should get you close.

Ya I reccomend using a throttle cable, it costs the same as the spacer and provides a much cleaner, smoother install. It is a little more work though. if you dont shave your manifold all the way a bracket can be made easily to attach to teh bosses on the side. Im working on doing this to Matt's car right now but here is a picture of mine. i jsut welded some tabs to the side.

Happy birthday!

I think they are actually really cool, hehe but ive got some full scale models that look about the same! I saw a guy selling these thigns at lowes motorspeedway, it was alll american cars though.

You have a very clean car I commend your color choice! I have a love for white cars.. so clean and pure.

OH LORD that is HOT Makes me want to repaint my car!

Just got my mag. Im kind aliking the new lay-out, its actually getting to the size of a real magizine, and with the extended coverage to all nissans, perhaps we will get a little more exposure. Its not like first gens were getting any more coverage when it was SportZ. Big thanks to Hybridz for putting my car in to rep the site!!! Very much appriciated!

Heh uh-o thats two against me, bikes and skydiving As long as i get to 25!!

Its a regular nissan 5spd out of a 280zx. Garret had been telling me it was gonna happen lol, We blew them the same way 20 psi 3rd gear pull. I have a couple z32 trannys in the corner, Im working on an adaptor right now. pretty slowly though lol with school and what not. Prolly throw another nissan one in for a bit till I get the z32 stuff worked out. ANyway I was proud lol My first cool breakage. Prolly hsoudl wait for a better tranny before I put on some DR's

b_sosick - The tandem jump itself was 140 bucks. There wasnt really any training. You get a 15 minute breifing, sign a bunch of papers and jump out of the plane!! There is alot of class time for a solo jump though... Once you are licensened jumps only cost 20 bucks.. basically pay for the plane ride. But getting gear is expensive, new gear I believe runs around 5g's but Im not positive about all the details.

DrHunt that is crazy, I can see where your coming from If i had seen somethign that tragic I dont think I would have gotten on the plane. But I think those occurances are few and far between, prolly had more of a chance getting killed driving down there. But it did make me stop and think when I was signing the dozen or so liability release forms!! Davyz -- It is definitly the ultimate rush I have ever had, i think I would get beat up in fighting so Ill stick to jumping otu of planes lol. COZY Z COLE - Yea the first pic is kinda funny but its actually the first part of a back flip, most of the tandem jumpers flipped out oh the plane haha. Definitly took my breath away. Turbomeister -- HAhaahaa i busted hte Tranny after I went skydiving. I guess I was either trying to to get that adreniline rush again, or perhaps I sed up all my good luck for the weekend!!! Anyway It might not be for everybody but I definitely reccomend it. I will jump solo next I believe.

Thought I would share this with you guys. I went skydiving with Dive Carolina this weekend. Did a tandem jump from 13,500 feet, 120 mph 60 sec freefall . There isnt much I can say to describe it other then that it is ABSOLUTLY AWESOME. Jumping out of the back of that plane topped jsut about everything I've done so far. You can just feel your whole body tingle from adreniline. Anyway I knwo alot of you proly have done this, for those that havent done it if you get hte chance DO IT!!! I give it two HUGE thumbs up. I plan on doing a single jump this spring and maybe even working towards my certification. Heres the goofy pictures of me hehe. My holy $hit face: The little chord you see going up is a tiny chute to slow tandem jumpers down, without it you go ~185mph, with it you drop about the same as a single jumper, ~120mph.

Well I took her out to fine tune my fuel curve for 20-21psi last night. Tuning with my innovated wideband out out in the country I did a couple 3rd gear pulls. On about the 4th pull turbo spooled to 21 psi hit about 4500 rpm and BAMMMM. It made all sorts of racquet. Anyway I managed to slam it into second gear and drive it for a bit to grind up all the pieces so I could use the other gears. Turned up the radio and drove home lol. Heres the carnage, basically 3rd gear is completely gone I can use at like nuetral.

Sucks to hear about your race man! Some of these new cars out are faster then you think!!

You know gabe, I ran almost the exact same time in my 260z the one time I ran it. I got a 13.0@110mph. Running 11psi jsut like you.
