  1. well then the answer is a big and obvious NO lol is there an elephant in the room?
  2. i dont exactly know what part you are talking about (post a pic maybe) but the ONLY parts i know of body wise that transfer are a certain set of fender flares that fit both s30 and s130
  3. got my August issue yesterday... and i got an October issue today O_o thank you grassroots mag for my extra free issue
  4. i didnt think 280zx's have rev limiters, sure you were bouncing off the valve float? lol or do you have an aftermarket ecu?
  5. im not a turbo expert at all but isnt that compressor surge? he might have turned to boost up too far for the stock turbo?
  6. my head looked nothing like that, no pitting at all, no rust on what was left of the bolt has anyone ever had one break off as they tried to remove their exhaust manni bolts? most of the stories you hear seem to be "looked at the manifold and the bolts were missing" alot more than "had a bolt/stud break on me"
  7. generally both of the outside bolts pop out, both are in 2 completely different locations as far as being exposed to the elements (and my thermostat housing has never leaked from my knowledge) i think its more about thousands of heat cycles on the 2 outer bolts (of which hold the most pressure on the manifold) and the metal just become compromised, all of my stock exhaust bolts came out easily and had little corrosion
  8. easiest thing i found to do was DONT mess with the easy out because you may make the situation worse than before (cause you cant drill out an easy out, just push it further back into the head) MY suggestion is to upgrade the two outside bolts to 10mmx1.25 studs (because replacing the 8mm with another isnt really fixing the problem is it drill out the existing bolt thats still in there (making sure you go through the center, use a punch if you have to) then drill the hole out to the right size for the 10mm, rethread the hole with a 10mmx1.25 tap, clean it out, your done thing is find a good 10mmx1.25 bolt/stud or none of that matters, now you just have a big hole with nothing to put in it and make sure the 10mm bolt fits in the hole of the exhaust mannifold or header your putting on putting sealant might last you 4-5 days before it gets pushed/burned out, plus you wont feel good about that kind of repair im 17 (with no patience) did this by myself, i dont have much automotive knowledge or even a 1 car garage cool thing was i did buy a lot of new tools, new header, and came out better $ wise than if i had went to a nissan dealership (or even the local scetchy garage) to get them to fix it
  9. Funny vid but anyone notice the fact that this is in the wrong section?
  10. Incubus in the morn religiously rap and all the typical "im a teenager, and pissing you off is my job" stuff in the afternoon i dont really have a "time to haul ass" song... at least i dont think
