phantaz

yep... me too... horrible about buying books and computer parts... i did buy a set of rims for my z but sold em to a guy for his 510 in tulsa for 100 bucks profit =) but mostly in debt. damn you EBAYYYY

man thats a nice set up...but would hate to see the wiring behind it LOL does look amazing though and love that they are in stock locations. Hey 280zforce... you still live in Corona?? i went to k-2 grade there and my mom and aunt still live there. i went back about 6 years ago and about had a heart attack...the city has exploded in growth into the hills. crazy stuff end thread jack LOL

LOL when i click my map light on in my 280zx my door ajar light comes on and the emergencly flashers start up.. great conversation peice ... not.

"Ashland entered the metal-to-metal panel bonding arena in 2004 with the launch of PLIOGRIP 5760B panel bonding epoxy. Available in 220ml and 400ml, two-to-one cartridge formats, PLIOGRIP 5760B epoxy is the first in a growing line of panel bonding adhesives" this was toward the bottom, ive used this stuff on my scale planes and boats... and they will bond aluminum together once its prepped corectly =)

hmmm i wonder if they were referring to the inside runners being polished on the intake to help it breathe better???

i look at his... i look at mine.... i look at his.... i look at mine.... yep.. two completely different cars.. mine was made in Japan and his was made in Gorgeous Car Creations on planet NEENER NEENER under the import name of dont you wish you had a car like this too?? hides head in shame at my poor attempt to paint and play with 'glass. please wave hand in my direction so that some of your obvious excellent creativity waft's my way here in OK. your car is what made me join this site in the first place.

exact same thign with mine... shut it off and it will start right up ... let it sit for 10 20 and wont start or run super rough with no rmp to speak of.. if i wait an hour or so ..start right up.... sounds silly but i wrapped the exhaust with tin foil and i mean wrapped to check about boiling the gas out of the rails and causeing pockets of ait to lock it up.... and problem stopped so i put heat wrap on it and its been fine ever since... the only other time ive had a simliar problem was when one of my injectors took a crap on me at sonic. drove home belching and sputtering. damn injectors lol

i kinda like the celica choice.. considering the website your on.. conformity probably isnt high on your list =) and the miata has been done to death.. the celica not so much yet its considered a reliable and dependable car... just a bit harder per se to make into a performace vehicle as such. GO for the oddball =0)

best homer simpson "DOOH" i guess i could have looked at where he was from also. crawling back into my lurkingmode now lol

Man awesome job... Black is horrible at showing flaws so thats even more impressive..and love the hood scoop. i totally missed it in the first round of photos =). double thumbs up for a garage job done well.

not trying to thread jack....but where the hell is his brake and clutch cylinders???

yeah.. wasnt sure if you had another z or a second engnie in yours while your head was getting done. i think im going this next meet for the z club but from what i hear they are all restoration z'ers. i dont think im going to fit in but at least i can look at sime seriously nice z's =)

You need your own forum on here Paul =). links to pictures, guides, and general help. its not like you dont ramble enough once you get going LOL love your posts though. ok question.. in the first pic of the maxima head the areaaround the spark plug hole was still humped up.. was that removed later or left ? and for what reason was it left if it was? maybe a stupid question but an honest one. thnx Paul

guess im the lone dog on this one but im used to it =).. since you've gone aftermarket FI and turbos on your other projects.. i would go the triple webber route =) IMHO other than a big honking turbo nothing looks as good under the hood as a cleaned up engine bay and a set of chromed triple webbers sitting there.. once tuned they start in just about any weather because you sure as hell dont need a choke with them lol. since you wont need all the wiring a aftermarket or standard FI system needs the engine bay will look awesome. nothing wrong with a set of nicely built SU's but if you have the Webb's that would be my suggestion. good power, GREAT sound great looks and reliability to boot.

garage...den... same thing for a guy =) look great and glad to see another zx'r doing his car up . i painted my first car a few years ago and i know from experience how hard it is to do it in a garage... dust, bugs, trash ...man its tough to lay down a nice clean spray job without having to deal with all that too !!!

did you put that on bare metal? or is that a rough sanded so it had something to adhere too?? doesnt look to bad.. some "bubbling" look to it in the second pic but you say its flattening out and not color sanded yet. Not bad for just rolled on for sure. i havnt read much about the roller thing yet so im searching right after i post this but any info woudl be welcome =0) and IMHO yes.. go for a darker grey =) i like the original color you have on it now.

What is the color exactely??? because if the lighting and white reflections it looks chocolate brown. Metal flake?? looks nice though.... cant wait to see it in sunlight =) nice job

very TVR looking.... and looking closely at the fenders ....serious glass work, very smooth. NICE!!

awesome... i think coil over Z's have some of the best stances around.. ofcourse that might be because you can put nice wide rims on them =0)~

oh yea... megasquirt definatly seems to be the way to go.... need to dust off the old computer skills first though lol. Silent you ever get down to Tulsa for any of the Z meets?? Paul Thnx for all the info and the Head pics you have in the P forum is ummm DEDSEXY lol
