  1. I have some non vented Toyota 4x4 calipers that I had thought about making some spacers to allow me to run these over some vented rotors. My thinking is: These will be used in the rear. The wieght of the calipers (in rear) is not a big concern to me. I will be running some larger rotors and larger lighter calipers up front. I have used these calipers up front and think they are pretty good, so (I`m guessing) they should work well in the rear. I welcome others thoughts on this idea. I should mention that I already have an ajustable pro valve in the car now. And that the car is "street legal" but is used for track events (very little street).
  2. Phyte, I think you would be pleased with this set up. Easy to install, works better than stock. If you can, get some ss lines frt and rear. Do a really good brake system flush. And remember, the type/quality of pad and shoes you use will also come into play.
  3. Ron, Do you have some pics with the part on your car ? Does it leave any room to get around ?
  4. The K & N filters aren`t pretty but they work well. You can see pics, click Z pics
  5. Nope, I just tried. Same thing bad user or password ??? (using my login)
  6. Using the for mentioned user id and password, I can`t get in. It says, invalid user name or password ? ? ?
  7. When Will We (er, they) Learn ? We (er, they) have polluted everything else . All for the mighty (er, not so mighty) buck . just my opinion.
  8. The Nissan rear kit I got was complete. But I asked for a "complete kit". I`m sure you could get them/it any way you wanted.
  9. Thanks for having us up, I enjoyed hanging out (and the black & tans). Thanks for your ideas, help and use of your equipment. Thanks for lunch. (it`s on me next time) Jamie, thank you for the welds. Good to see everyone again. So when is the next outing ? Oh, I forgot to get your panel.
  10. How many Z`s do you have Mark ? What`s up with the blue flared Z you just bought ?
  11. Phyte, What you have is a after maket A/C compressor and bracket. Yes, it mounts on the pass side covering the fuel pump with the tension pulley ridding in frt of the engine. That compressor shown is an old York compressor, I would recomend going to a yard and get a stock (factory installed) A/C compressor and bracket.
  12. Very nice Brett, I too like the plate and love that big ol exhaust pipe. Prase to you too Eric !
  13. Others please ring in. . . I was a tech for 13 years specializing in Datsun/Nissan. I never had any problems with these specs. As I said before Don`t Over Torque the Nut ! The torque spec previous is from a Nissan Factory manual. If you can roll the car around before doing the final torque, I would do it. It all just helps seat everything in.
  14. Be careful not to over touque the nut. My Nissan manual says 94 to 123 foot lbs on the rear axle bearing lock nut. My recomendation is, Tighten/torque nut to 100lbs then take a hammer and tap on both the outer stub flange and the inner flange LIGHTLY (to seat everything), then retorque the nut. Then steak the nut on both flats. If you find any shims inside , I put them back in.
  15. hiromino, If you are installing these ajustable bushing in the rear, you will need to buy the tool (sold by MSA) to ajust these bushings. 1st thing is, these tools/wrenches SUCK ! They will not make it though 1 alignment. Buy 2 of these tools/wrenches, you will need them. The fronts can easily be ajusted with ajustable plires or large thumb wrench.
  16. If you drink (because you want to) If you drive drunk (because you want to or think you can) If you hurt or kill someone, you need to pay a price just as bad! If the punishment was tougher, the CRIME wouldn`t happen as much.
  17. Be thankful it`s not a 16 year old girl!
  18. Mike, With a man like you in the passenger seat (figuratively speaking), he`ll be ok! Take to an autocross and let him feel the car out (some what safely).
  19. Dan, I think I missed that due to it being right where the woman is shown in the tub.
  20. That would be cool if the plane would rotate with the wind direction.
  21. If only more businesses thought this way! Service in this country sucks (for the most part). It makes a world of difference working with a company that values their employes.
  22. Terry, Ever think of making parts for sale? Maybe a g-nose kinda frt with intergated air dam.
  23. That`s quite nice Pete. It alt to get you some loven points. Gotta take care of the ladies!
  24. Illegal Immigrants Poem I cross ocean poor and broke, Take bus, see employment folk. Nice man treat me good in there, Say I need to see welfare. Welfare say, You come no more, We send cash right to your door. Welfare checks, they make you wealthy, Medicaid it keep you healthy! By and by, I got plenty money, Thanks to you, American dummy. Write to friends in motherland, Tell them 'come fast as you can.' They come in turbans and Ford trucks, I buy big house with welfare bucks They come here, we live together, More welfare checks, it gets better! Fourteen families, they moving in, But neighbor's patience wearing thin. Finally, white guy moves away, Now I buy his house, and then I say, Find more aliens for house to rent. And in the yard I put a tent. Send for family, they just trash. But they, too, draw the welfare cash! Everything is very good, And soon we own the neighborhood. We have hobby -- it's called breeding, Welfare pay for baby feeding. Kids need dentist? Wife need pills? We get free! We got no bills! American crazy! He pay all year, To keep welfare running here. We think America darn good place! Too darn good for the white man race. If they no like us, they can scram, Got lots of room in Pakistan. I don`t usually post stuff like this, but I heard a conversation today at work about this topic (people using / abusing the system) and this in a e-mail sent to me today. To much in one day I guess.
  25. Very nice Terry, gives just the right "Z" look. It`s to bad you and John Washington can`t hook up ! Thanks for posting all your work/pics !
