  1. I havent really had good experiences with Top End not to mention, at least in my opinion, that the Owner is a bit of a childish indvidual. Before I would buy that off of him I would buy the intake manifold from Lonewolf first as I like they're piece, and I think it looks pretty good as well. http://www.lonewolfperformance.com/pictures/nissan.html
  2. Well if you ask me GM hasnt alwasy been the brightest bulb in the bunch when it comes to bringing back badge names of cars. Remember back in the day, when they brought back these somewhat ICON cars and what they did to them. The Pontiac LeMans The Chevy Nova I mean sometimes it makes you wonder what they where thinking to go from these types of cars to the ones above when brought back in the late 80's. Well what is one to do though? If they're design team would get they're head out of they're collective anus's maybe they wouldnt be losing out to Ford and Dodge. That's just my thinking though.
  3. That is really nice but I want to see something like that for us turbo Z guys. That is really a great looking piece though. So when are you going to make the turbo manifold for us boosted guys, well, hmmmm, huh, huh, huh?
  4. Great video indeed, loved the sound of the motor and tooling up the highway, something you just have to love.
  5. I was going to say that if you ship that will eat up money as well, trips from one coast to the other arent that expensive really, but the shipping will cost you in at least the 1200-1600 range for two cars. 200-350 for plane tickets, thats amost 2 grand straight away, and you have only another 2 to work with. Its going to be hard and you need to make it with what you got as stated in the other post, go with as little as you can and drive yoru vehicles cross country. Depending on how well you can drive it. Not doing a lot of stopping and a lot of driving you can make the trip in less then 3 days. Good luck to you ! Ill go with sparks to drive the other car if you must fly, I love road trips.
  6. It makes you wonder though the validity of his statements concidering he cant even spell properly. I mean, take this statement for instance. "ENGINE IS VERY TIGHT AND DOSNT SMOKE WHART SO EVER" Then there is this one. "HIGH CAPASITY/ PRESSAURE OIL PUMP" Then though you look at the photos and you see that the head has been ported well, and maybe the guy just doesnt spell well. Hard to say on that one.
  7. I think I would have to agree with all that Tony D has said. I have seen Jeffp's set up, his exhaust is finely made piece. It is something you would expect to pay 1200+ for in any venue. I have also seen his dyno sheets for his "complete system change," from a stock 280ZX turbo exhaust, to his 3 inch system. In his own web page it clearly states that he made the swap on a standard 280ZX turbo and swapped the complete exhaust, not just the down pipe. He netted 20hp and 20ft lb of torque, or something close to that, I would have to source his page for the exact numbers. I do think that there is no way that anyone could contest the validity of his claim, it is for all to see in black and white. Also as stated by Drax himself, all he used was the stock down pipe and a 90* bend that ended in the transmission tunnel, then did the same thing with Petes down pipe, ending the exhaust in the trasmission tunnel. He also posted his gains. I dont see where he could be contested either as both were done, Pete's and Jeff's system, on the same car, at the same boost, tune levels. I think that both products are well made and something anyone would like to have on they're vehicle. I seriously don't see though, where there is a problem with the validity of either product.
  8. I would second that. This way you cannot go wrong, one thing that I had forgot to mention in my first post. J. Soileau couldn't be more right in his post.
  9. I dont see anything wrong with his feedback, I mean 2 negatives in one year. He has a feed back score of 1748, what is there to think about seems to me from reading hes good to deal with. I could see if he had like 2 in the last month and only a score of 20. As far as the sale of the same item maybe he distributes or has a lot of them, I dont see the same name coming up over and over again. Also his id hasnt changed at all in 4 years. I think you just might be a lil paranoid.
  10. HAH, not to try to steal your thunder, but I thought I would post mine, with muffler mind you lol Same as you but on a ZX instead. http://media.putfile.com/dynomax77
  11. I had the same thing happen as well, and I think I caught it the day it happened, did the same as you, changed everything and notified ebay. I do believe all of it was well though in the end as I havent had any problems. Good think like you said you caught it straight away.
  12. IM about to get some Ziex's on my car, from what Ive heard they are pretty good, it was a choice between them and the BFG sports taht you speak of. The thing that swayed me at the time was the price, 59.10 mounted and balanced per tire. Couldnt go wrong if they are pretty good. I had Khumo 711's that were of the V rated variety till they stopped makign them, they were really good, gripped well and lasted a good while even with going to the track.
  13. Im thinking you dont have a muffler? Its what it sounds like to me a bit like straight pipe only. Not bad and you will hear that turbo quite well with no muff on there.
  14. Can I have it ? Seriously though that car looks fantastic!! If mine looked so good iI would be glad to have it back too.
  15. I did get it to play with the Dvix player and I have since downloaded the VLC but I still cant get any sound out of it. Thats whats hurting the most really. Ill have to figure it out, Divx, says it uses some sort of Tgg1812 or something like that audio. Anyone else having this much trouble or is it just Windows XP
  16. Enamels are shyte for painting unless you get somethign that is of quality and they do take forever to work with. I would say if your looking for a cheap DYI paint, go with the laquer based paint or go with the Rustoleum. I mean from your posts and what I saw there, it seems to work well and you had good results with it. So why not go with what you know works well instead of looking for something else?
  17. Those are definitely classic, I loved everyone, ahah, this thing could fly lmao
  18. Ok then guys what am I missing because it will not play for me
  19. I have to say that I love everyone of your videos, your production qaulity is so good and the way you piece them all together is amazing, not to mention the music. Now on to the car, the work you and your team have done is outstanding to say the least and its showing more and more in every video. I cant wait to see the car of yours start to come back together. That will be the best of all, and someone said they wanted a cd, well copy the vids and make your own for your private viewing I to love the videos they are classic!!
  20. I like his quote near the end of his video where hes like, " Ive a couple of track days with it, its kind of fun blowing by Z06's in the straight and theyre never expecting that." Hah you gotta love it, and viocleff, I dont know what your talking about, with 400hp to the ground I think that car is doing quite well and would probably handle much better then a L powered Z of the same nature concidering the weight advantage of the SR motor not to mention it sits so far back, its like he said, almost an MR car.
  21. Congratulations Terry, its a wonder though that no one over there hasnt started the "oh but look its one of those V8 Z's" Good job on getting car of the month and having a gorgeous looking Z.
  22. I think I know your problem, I had the same, now that you have mentioned all that you have done. I used the same ZXT acuator, when I purchased my T3/TO4E, just because it was easier. Well I adapted the MUCH larger actuator that I had gotten with the Garret unit that I had bought almost stopped all of the creep that I had. You may want to get yourself a new actuator. With a Hallman BC, I just get a tiny bit of spike at times, maybe 2#
  23. That piece looks amazing, I want one, how much where when can you have it ready That is really some great work Terry honestly, a very nice looking piece.
  24. I have to agree, that would be the sweetest thing to be ripping the larger cars with that little festiva. Simply classic
  25. I have to agree a great song, not one much more fitting, but that was my only complaint as well, like spot, wished you could have heard the cars. Great video though, just the same I loved it.
