  1. so you picked it up and you're going to bring it back to life?
  2. yeah I've been following this build on the nyspeed forum, no expense spared at all!
  3. looking for parts again, anyone still have anything available?
  4. I haven't, but once my Trans Am is finished I plan on running it down the 1/4 mile out there. the closest track by me is only an 1/8th
  5. well I'm 21. I got my z just a couple of months ago. my uncle had bought this '77 280z maybe 5 years ago. within the past year his step-son's buddy took it out for a joy ride and blew out the head gasket. so my uncle didn't want to deal with the head gasket, and knowing my obsession with cars he offered it to me. the only catch was i had to go down to texas and tow it back. I also enjoy working on my '82 trans am, and occasionally my '95 saab 900se
  6. scary, I'm afraid to leave my 280 parked anywhere in public where there is little to no surveillance, i'd rather risk my saab being stolen.
  7. well in new york state most gas stations offer a range of 87, 89, 91, or 93 octane. most offer only 3 out of the four ratings, i think 87 isn't seen much anymore though. there are a few stations here and there that offer 100 octane"race fuel" as for a difference in measuring octane ratings, i don't think there is.
  8. proper spelling grammar would be great. did you get all of the proper insurance information?
  9. looks more like a pressure regulator for an air compressor lol boost controllers are usually smaller than that, at least as far as i've seen from my experiences.
  10. the camera is a nikon D60 just using the kit lens until i can afford another(if ever)
  11. thanks guys, i'm really enjoying this new dslr, way better than a point and shoot.
  12. lol i just assumed that the larger metal line was the supply and not the return. i should have known better.
  13. hey how do you like those seats? good quality? i've been scanning ebay to see what i can find to put in my s30, but didn't want to buy and then get stuck with some cheap pos seat.
  14. i ordered a new one from the local parts store, it showed up today, but was damaged during shipment, another one should be here tomorrow, hopefully undamaged.
  15. yes sir, i took it for a spin (first time i've driven the car since i bought it) i didn't do any burnouts, but my radiator exploded lol looks like i've got a little more work ahead of me. any recommendations on a good radiator?
