  1. Yay! And you spelled receive wrong...FAIL!
  2. Nice. I'm always surprised by how much clay-baring and waxing can do on old paint.
  3. I had a buddy install mine and it was a PITA. He had to hack it up to make it fit. I paid him $100...if you have the skills do it yourself...it most likely won't fit
  4. Nice find. I'm eventually going VQ as well. Good luck!
  5. Thanks! Definitely a work in progress I'm glad the vids helped. I'm not sure on the power issue...if you do some reading on the "correct" exhaust size for your particular motor (I'm guessing mostly stock?) then it is a little too big. Even though the pipes are small the exhaust is as large as a 3" So yes, you might lose some low-end torque but if you ever build the motor up the exhaust won't be the limiting factor
  6. Get the 3-2-1 headers for sure. I've had both the twice pipes with and without headers and the headers make a huge difference. Here are some of my vids. You can't really tell how loud it is but you get an idea of the sound. And they're louder for carbed Z's. Mine is EFI. Youtube
  7. We did a test on mine last year...was somewhere around 105
  8. Sucks about his buddy...gj with the new waterpump! I can't wait to see the manifold either!
  9. Mine, while only ~6 months old, is pretty rigid as well. I don't know what kind of buckling it goes under while driving but it's pretty solid. Perhaps the sun had something to do with it like you said
  10. Just read through the entire build...props on doing everything yourself! Awesome build so far
  11. I'm leaving mine unpainted when I paint my Z this summer. I wouldn't trust regular paint to bend like the airdam does without cracking. Also, I'm going for a two-tone look anyways
  12. I just read through this entire thread...it's AWESOME! I can't wait to see what it looks like when it's all done
  13. Yeah I searched for months for mine. Paid 2400 and it came with a box of new and old parts
  14. So it smokes because it needs rings? Depending on how bad you could still daily it. My Z smokes because on deceleration because of the valves but I dd'ed it for over a year. Just put some oil in it every now and then and call it good!
  15. 75 and older are good to go in terms of not getting the car smogged every other year. Technically I could still get pulled over and sent to get my car checked out for not having a cat. If I do an engine swap, that is also apt to get me sent to the referee station and probably a huge fine if I don't have the swap authorized.
  16. What's up with your right rear tire??
  17. Those two last ones are very clean looking and are off to a pretty good start on tasteful mods. I'd check out that orange one for 3500. Seems legit.
  18. Nice! What kind of paint did you use?
  19. I have Konig B-Bombs and they're 11lbs each...seems to be lighter and I got them new with tires for $750.
  20. Ha, saw that thing over the weekend in person. Weird little car.
