  6. I bought the front airdam and the bre decklid from msa,I had a shop in san jose do the installation and all the bodywork to the car.rear bumper was shaved the side markers and antena were deleted.they had to weld on some of the things mentioned. I really don't remember how much was spent.I know i payed like $3700 for paint and labor.That was close to 3 years ago so it won't be the same i guess.I have the bodyshops info.
  7. not sure yet, i might sell them as soon as i get my car out of mike's or hold them till the tires wear out. tires have about 4k miles.
  8. I should have my 17 x 7 enkei's for sale soon.They are on my Z and they will include the adaptors.I live in the bay area too.
  9. Memories! Here is my storie: I got my dl when I was 17 years old. My dad and I were looking around to buy my first car,I had a honda cvcc when I was 16 but did not drive it much so I won't count it as my first car.Anyways we saw a 7? Buick Apollo the one that looks like the Nova.the guy wanted like $1200 it had a blown engine,We were going to put a rebuilt or new engine in it but the deal did no go through. We kept searching We saw a couple of 65 to 66 mustangs but they were to expensive.Soon we came across an 82 280ZX 5spd. 2+2 it had 90k and was a one owner car.It was dark grey with light grey and black interior.It was close to perfect.I payed $1400 for it, I did not know how to drive stickshift back then so my dad drove it home,When we got home he told me to switch seats and explained what to do and got out of the car.I was like what the hell! After like 4 days of parctice he told me to drive him to the autoparts and corrected my mistakes and that was it for my driving lessons.I burned a clutch trying to do burnouts in like 6 months....LOL My younger brother showed me how to do a real burnout later on. One time I was driving on the freeway and there is this japanese guy trying to race me on a early Z,My mom and my friend were with me in the car(excuse) I punched and he even blew a kiss and left fast! So I said I have to get one of those sometime,I went on a good year vacation,My dad sold my 280zx and when I came back there was a 78 280Z waiting for me on his driveway.It was running in 4 cylinders, I told my brother jump in lets go drive it like that.I got on it and it still had balls.So out the old and in a used low miles.It ran great after. My brother and I always talked about him getting one and we were going to fix them up and paint them Mine was going to be bleu and his red.So we were looking for his car,One time we had a cousin come to visit and we had to walk to the store since I had two seats only.Well that was the best walk we ver had,We went trhough some small streets and came across the 77 Z,I catched the nose with my left eye and was trying to catch my bro and cousin.I told my brother wait I think I saw a 280Z lets go back and look at it.We went back and it was for sale, That car was petty.We knock on the guys door and told them we were interested.We rushed home and told my dad we went back and made a deal with the guy.He was the second owner and the car had been garaged by him for 7 years.The tags were that old too. Drove it home and had to clean the fuel tank. I go on vacation again and my 78 gets sold. My brother drove the car for 3 years and had the car sitting most of the time.I always bothered him to sell it to me.Once he did sell to me but the deal did not go through for some reason.then he goes on vacation and came across a 98 pace corvette,He was trying to buy it and called me and told me I can have the Z for free (best give I have ever got). Now I am building my Dream car and he just bought a 240Z with the intention of building his,But he wants a 280Z not a 240Z.So its going up for sale soon.

I will break in the engine go dragracing and then do my interior,I have a sound system ready to get installed. After the interior I will get coilovers,control arms,wheels. and after its all done I will run a procharger or turbo.

  12. hope this works... Thanks! No problem! I have a Red Z too, I was talking to turbo meister and we agreed that red is one of the best color on a Z j/k.........I like all Z's no matter what color they are!

  15. Here are some pictures I took @ MSA, I will upload more when I get home. http://s67.photobucket.com/albums/h310/MSA2006/
  16. hey, to run mid 12's in the festiva you need. stock b6t stock turbo a full 2.5'' downpipe, I have on half of it. I have atp blow off valva and boost controller reich racing ecu upgrade good for 16psi,I'm at around 15psi to keeo safe My car does'nt like 91 octane fuel after 4k rmps to much,So I take 104 or better octane fuel to again to keep it safe.It runs great on high octane. I have a small intercooler,I forgot the dims. 2.5'' electronic cutout, The turbo is to loud when open so I don't think your quiet blow off valve is going to hide your setup much. I'm running a cold air intake off ebay. 20x6x14 m/t dragslick my car weighs 1866lbs with a full interior including the spare tire.when running those 12 second runs the rear and passenger seats were removed + the spare tire. I think thats it,Let me know when your ready for the picture.I fixed my hood already so I can take them anytime. Thank you!
  17. I was there today! I bought some parts I needed and I was looking for members but did not see any of you guys.I will go back tomorrow.I heard that they are specting close to 500 cars.
  18. I don't know how it sound's, should have a clip soon!
