i dont know what to make of this, but i thought it was funny.

Not only can you insert your name, but a whole slew of short, dirty phrases. Nice find!

hmm. if i'm not mistaken, i think that body work added at least 100 horsepower to the wheels!

Some of you might have seen this before, i think it's been floating around a while.

What mods do i need to put halogen light bulbs into my fluorescent fixture? How many more lumens will i get with the halogens? Has anybody done this swap before?
EDIT:
...Plus one more asking if the "coil" acts as an intercooler.:icon3:
The coils create a vortex effect, which in turn allows for a denser light and increased output.
-
....and 5 more newbies asking if there is a 'kit' for the swap!
And another 5 newbies asking how much light said light bulb will produce.

I never thought a 280zx could look so sexy!

I've been looking at a new driver's seat for a while, and i finally have an excuse to buy one. I like the look of the Corbeau CR1, but haven't had any experience with their seats. There is a guy on ebay selling them for $350 SHIPPED One of my friend's offered to sell me a brand new Sparco Torino Seat (without seat rail) for $300.
Given the retail value of the seats ranges by $200 (sparco on the higher end), is there much a difference in quality/durability/comfort?

IMO, lingerie is just a formality, at least in the bedroom.
If she gives you a sneak peak at the restaurant or something, then it's a little more exciting.
I dont think that really answered your question though.

On a bone stock 1973 240z, i paid $95 a month through state farm insurance. That was with 2 moving violations on my record, and multi car discount (8 cars insured).
EDIT: this included a $500 deductible, and full coverage.

caption: Here's a brand new Corvette C6 that sustained readily repairable collision damage while on a test drive from a Chevrolet dealership. It has been driven just 86 miles. This is an insurance claim settlement vehicle.
Looking at the pictures, how "readily repairable" is that damage?
Here's a Lamborghini Murcielago with "readily repairable damage" also...

I've been checking out this site for a few years now, some nice cars every now and then. I dont think i'd ever buy from them, because i figured that if insurance didnt want to fix it due to some ungodly costs, i wouldnt want to either.
-
damn, i wish i had a few grand just lying around-to get a plane ticket to G.A, then to buy the car and fly it back.
Fly it back? Will that be carry on or will you check it at the gate?
Sorry, Couldn't resist.

Some of you may have seen it before, but it's still pretty sweet.

Looking for a motorhome?
check out the pics!
http://www.craigslist.org/nby/car/55676166.html
This Cadillac former professional car was converted to a motorhome in the early sixties by a talented architect. He was a boat enthusiast as well, the teak interior has a definite nautical flair. It was driven to Willits from the Bay Area about ten years ago, and has not been run or started since. Fully self contained (at one time). More than a little rust, but still saveable. The interior is in good shape, looks like it might have a few small roof leaks, I was gonna Sno Coat it, but never got to it. I am a car nut and I know the procar windshield is probably worth a grand, but I do not want to part this out. Also has the '56 Caddy air cleaner coveted by rodders. I feel my asking price is fair, but this is going to sell, no matter the price. Open to real offers, from real people. Please phone for details,
Thx, Alan

DavyZ - What kind of beer are you looking into brewing? My buddy and i were going to invest in some brewing supplies some time soon. We were going to start with brown ales or IPAs, since that's what we drink the most of. Seems as though you can get most of the supplies for about $150, and roughly $25 in ingredients makes you about 5 gallons of beer.
Z-Tard, Stronbow available at http:http://www.liquidsolutions.com for $1.45 a bottle plus shipping. Tiger Lager is available at $3.95 for a 650 ml bottle, seems a bit high.
By the time you figure in shipping, it can get a bit pricey, but i guess thats the price you pay for the beers you cant find anywhere else.
If anybody likes Scottish Ale, i'd recommend Traquair House Ale.

I'm not a beer expert either, just an enthusiast.
I dont think all american beers taste like piss, just the cheap ones. Some of the best beers i've tasted are brewed in USA.
-
Mike,
Various places.
Most of the others come from Beverages and More, and Whole Foods.
Some of them come from visits to other states, such as oregon and montana, where the beers are microbrewed and only available locally. Are there any good microbrews in your area?
Some of them are quite expensive though...the most expensive bottle i have is roughly $20 for a 750ml. I have hundreds of dollars just sitting on the shelves in the pictures.

Friday night, I had a really awesome Chocolate Stout, by Bison Brewery. Other favorite beers include: Smoked Porter (by alaskan brewing), Terrible (By Unibroue, no longer made), Nut Brown Ale (Samuel Smiths), Belhaven , Oatmeal Stout (Anderson Valley and Samuel Smiths)...i'm sure there's a couple others.
