It’s been awhile since I’ve posted here... life keeps me busy.  Hybridz is hands down the best resource for Z’s, got to keep the fire burning 😎

Such a comprehensive and stunning build.

I used wiring specialties.   Great service and product.

The Z has a new garage mate.  Picked up a sweet little 66 bronco.  Hope it’s as fun to build as the Z.  Racing starts in July for our local AutoX.  Looking forward to knocking the rust off of my driving skills.

Hope to be a little more up to date with the car and racing.  Going through a rough health patch with chemo and biologics.  I sure enjoy this group on Hybridz and all the cool projects being built.  Thanks for the kind words.

[Hoke Performance LS2/T56 install starts today.....]

Nice work.  Clean build.  Inspiring

Dawn patrol.  Took the old girl out for a photo shoot at first light.   Racing suspended since the virus outbreak, but a drive to clear your mind is still an option. 

[78 280Z LS3 Project]

Sweet. Can’t wait to see the finished product. 

[RWB Jeff - 1970 Datsun 240z - Build]

Updates?  Fascinated by your build.

Daper lights are sooooo much brighter.  Not a lot of racing this season for me. Poor health has kept me from doing much these days.  Getting on the mend though.  

[280z Ford 4.6L Mod Motor]

Nice work.

7/28 AutoX. 

[TrackZpeeds CXRacing LS1 T56 240z]

Been awhile.... got my dapper headlights installed and (Lord willing) have a race this coming Sunday.  

[TrackZpeeds CXRacing LS1 T56 240z]

Thanks box5...... didn’t get to race last weekend.  For some reason I have a caliper that has been hanging up after braking and didn’t have time to investigate.  I’m going to have all the brake fluids drained and replaced as well as clean up all the pistons.  Next race in May should be good to go.  

[TrackZpeeds CXRacing LS1 T56 240z]

Local stereo shop.... they are plentiful.  HTH. Jim

This mornings commute. 

 

Z parked in front of my office. Great weather to stretch her legs.  First AutoX race this coming weekend. 

[TrackZpeeds CXRacing LS1 T56 240z]

2 weeks until the racing season begins..... hope to have some new videos up soon.  

[Heavy Duty frame rails and connectors]

Mad skills. Very nice. 

[240Z built NA V8 swap build]

Looking good. Nice to see you have made some progress 

[Mr. Nurgleton's LS G nose swap project]

I ran a C&R radiator on a factory five cobra. Great product 

[TrackZpeeds CXRacing LS1 T56 240z]

Not much to report.   It’s been a rough year in far NorCal.  Record fires last summer, and record snow this winter.  Lost tress and fencing around the property and had to shut down the office a few days without power anywhere.  Hoping and praying for an un-eventful weather pattern for spring and summer with plenty of opportunity to run the Z.  

 

[TrackZpeeds CXRacing LS1 T56 240z]

I’d love to see your car finished. A real work of art IMO.  

[TrackZpeeds CXRacing LS1 T56 240z]

Lots or rain and cold weather in NorCal......  had a brief opportunity to stretch the Z’s legs.  Sometimes I forget how freakishly quick this car is. It’s easy to get behind and overcook the apex on a spirited run.   Looking forward to next AutoX season.

Stub axles worried me the most with my LS swap. The stock half shafts held up ok for a year.... I went the full upgrade from drive shaft shop...... it was a bigger PIA  than expected but I finally got the right parts from them and I’m really happy with the set up. My .02. Jim
