For some reverence meet and hear godzilla http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMhj22QLH1Y

Bartman, Thats just classic !! a CF hatch and than reinstall the stock (heavy glass) I have to give you kudos on that Hope to see you ate the next MSA autoX !!

UPDATE: Now just to find some time to actually work on the damn car !

As some of you know I have a zxr that houses a m60b40 with an m5 6 speed aswel.. however im still working on some ends on that car... It has been put on the backburner as i picked up track racing a bit more seriously. And for that a car needs a different basic built approach than the weekend warrior mindset taken for the ZXR. I bought the car last year just before MSA of a LT from 29 Palms, who (used) to post here.. In the end he screwed me and Tony D over.. but Mark Butler.. if you believe in Karma your time will come and you owe me a title and say 500 usd orso. The car made its appearance at the MSA autox and show in 2008 This is the driver at MSA 09 And the car on the new XXR 15x8's that will sport the slicks. In the class the car will be built for im allowed bigger. but slicks in 15"are everywhere, and in other classes i could use the car in ( with a l6) it is not allowed. The Specs sofar: * Full Fia Cage * Poreterfield R4 pads and Motul oil * Steel brake lines * MSA 'big'swaybars * Beta motor sport GF zx Hood * Sparco rev seat * OMP steeringwheel * sparco steeringwheel release * 15x8 XXR '513' (wantanabe rip offs) * gutted doors * whale tail to do: * paint * install 35 gallon Fuel cell * Install 305 v8 and its Megasquirt ( from parted s30, i bought a new s130 JTR kit) * install lexan windows * Coil overs (bught just need some fabbing) * Poly bushes * install a zillion ods and ends New plans as of 2012 * 8,5k RPM l28 * 45 Carbs * Special grind isky Cam as it sits now .. a heap and a million mile from completion ...

exactly like i mailed Sorry for the late reply nice set up i used rear (euro) zx turbe brake disks and calipers but had to shave off 3 to 4 mm to not have em grinding. There is a possibillity that the euro disk and calipers are bigger, a s130 turbo in europe has bigger brakes aswel .

haha sorry for the LAAAATE reply guys thanks .. and 1fast Z !!.. it is laying here right in front of me .. i thought you where going to pickit up and i would pay you a beer

So who is in florida .. id throw in 50 (euro so ~67 usd) i hear at least 5 20's en the .. id throw in some .. who wants to make some effort .. haha burn it at SEZ !!! ( id almost contplate to buy a ticket from amsterdam to SEZ haha !)

Its M powered (oem 3.0 upgraded for 3.2) Full M Farhwerk, and brakes! The 540 is a M540, meaning full M suspension, interior, bumpers etc.

ill throw in 50 !!! but before it burns can someone reuse the recaro seats in a z and save the wheels Imagine the BLACK smoke form the piles of bondo!!

Now lets talk BONDO How many gallons!! A: 5 B: 12 C: they guy is share holder at bondo (hence no time to fiinsh) OK given in my opinion it is FUHBAR .. but to each their taste in cars .. you have to give him credits for the work done.. I had a hard time just typing that

The daily Coupe !! and the hauler M540i to pull the race trailer

If you want revs.. shoehorn in a S62 BMW v8 (8k rpms stock) not an SBC.. if you want power cheap(er) go SBC but dont expect JUDD V8 revs

Looking Great!!!! and indeed this would help alot of people doing their install Nice Harbour Freight air saw !!!

Looks good!!! It just needs the bumber removed in teh rear in my opinion and it defenatly needs some coil overs !!! as it sits like a safari car now! Thumbs up on the progress though!

distributor .. it is the litlle black unit, they tend to go bad everey now and then. when i daily drove my car i always took a spare, as it is the only thing i have seen gone bad!

look for shaft play on your waterpump.. i had one knocking like this before .. though camarera sounds dont really tell detail

doenst look that strong but given the s130 is stronger than an s30 in case of a collision.

true but to modern standards their still flimsy to say the least !! next to that euro models do not have those to start with (this goes for teh s30's and s130's) much like the fairladys. To become legal in the us they had to have the door bars welded in if im correct.

http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=149299 he had some troubles as demand grew and he was not experianced. I peronally dont believe he is a bad person or scammer from talking to him personally. He just got sucked up in demand and learned that making these sort of deals is not easy the hard way!

If you get hit in a z (s30 or s130) the lil plastic dash cover is the last thing to worry about .. Any half decent car that t bones you will drive onto your lap !!!
