Jeff, might be able to sell it for 3k depends on the rust. You can watch the one that is on ebay right now. If that goes for 1000 or more I think you can flip this on with no prob. Might be able to clean it up and get 5k for it....we just need more pics. How is your car coming along? Plan on making the trip to the 08 Convention?

Wow, Jeff you really think that much for a 280z exhaust? Hope Tom gets anything close to that!

Mike you still around? Whats new? Love the vid....car sounds great.

HaHa, same thing I did! Tried to bend it into range.... Any vids coming soon of the car?

Sorry guys, I got caught up at work and forgot I had the cell number here on HBZ. I will send out an email to the club....Tom want to hold alil get togther at your place...if you don't mind?

I don't have the car at the house and can't remember the setup. Right now, my fuel gauge is pretty off. I am going to get another fuel lever sender out of one of my part cars. Also, my oil pressure gauge may be on a different range than the oil pressure unit. I remember buying the right one......as I hit the gas...the oil pressure seems to drop?!?

FYI, you can still buy those plastic rivets from Nissan. Almost .90 cent each.

Subtle Z kit? Car looks great and sounds good, what is in it? Sorry I am not in the L6 section often. Clive

Mike, 3 wheel drive in your sig pic? LOL Cool pic.

Call or email and find out what they want for the car, that way you get a sense of how much you are going to be paying for a pull out. These guys buy from a local dealers auction and only pay up to what a pull out is worth.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet-Camaro-02-Z28-Repairable-CONVERTIBLE-LS1-SIX-SPEED-Drives_W0QQitemZ220219979669QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item220219979669

Buy a wrecked F-body. Don't bother with that loan BS.....will get you in trouble. Wait and find the right car to buy. Clive

Phil, what lsd rear did you have?

Ok, the person wanted to do a LS1 swap to. Found this one today: http://boston.craigslist.org/nos/car/623384754.html Tom, maybe this weekend I will stop by...nice weather.

Is this another Craigslist car?

Rear-end aka diff

Drive-shaft?

Dave atleast your Z runs. Go take it for a drive later this week. Call up Dell and b*tch at them. Sure they will do something for you. Anyway let me know if you need any help this weekend on anything. since you just helped fix my pc 2 days ago! I swear pc's are made to break no matter how much they cost.

280zforce, I love your Z! I know it will run very soon. Right now I have coil overs with 225 front/250 rears, illuminas non-adjust all the way around. Crap! Next time I get the car on the lift I will have to take pics for you guys. The springs in the front are rubbing on the "threaded" collar of the coil over setup. I believe I may need helper springs. Thinking maybe I had cut to much out of the strut itself, who knows. The more I think, the more I want to fix it and get it right. To anyone reading....if you ever get a slight feeling your car isn't as safe as you would like it...fix it! I am not even worried about geting hurt in my car...I am afraid something will break and cause me to crash it...that would be a huge crush. BTW, seeing your car makes me want to paint my Z red. Clive

No paint! lol I want the car running right and all the in and outs gone through before the paint. That is def last thing on my mind. I want a great handling Z with lots of power (425ish @ the wheels). Tom- Sorry! lol...Yes you now have to do the LS1....you and Joe will have them buy next year. I am looking for the donors....=) Clive

Mike thanks, I did the steering couple already. Just need to do the rest of the bushings. Part of the learning curve....it is good in a way because now I know the feeling of "bad/old" parts vs what it will feel like once replaced. Mike you and a few other v8 guys is what I would love to have my Z look like! Soon....

So, driving season is very near and what do I plan to do with the Z? Well now that I am working and getting rid of my college loans...I plan to spend every dollar wisely on the Z this year. First I have to start with the suspension! It sucks right now.....unsafe if you really want to know. Why? Well shocks are too soft, no swap bars, old rubber all the way around the car, strut upper mounts are worn and finally tires are unbalanced. Also, my steering shakes all the time! It has been getting worse as time goes on. I have checked the car a few times and can't figure out what is going on. So the joy of just driving the car is gone and now I want it to be done right! So I am making a new list of parts I want to install before I start driving it for the summer: phase 1 -new shocks -sway bars -finish cage -new front/rear strut bars -new bushings -new strut tops -install new Q45 front mount -check tranny for slipping clutch -install new tires (toyo proxies 245/35/17) phase 2 -finish up wiring -new head lights (hid's) -motor work This spring I do look forward to working on the Z! Atleast I was able to drive it for 6 months and that was worth the battle alone. Don't get me wrong..my car is "safe"...I drove it to Fl and back but it is not where I would like it to be and doesn't handle for my driving style ( back roads )...lol Anyway here is another quick vid, sorry for the quality. Youtube really makes these vids look like crap. I will try another site soon...this was shoot with a HD dvd cam?! Here it it: Let me know what you think. Alway like to hear from you guys. Clive

How much does it cost to pump a decent size tank out?

Sounds like the anti theft is kicking in. Did you have the PCM flashed? I and a few guys were able to start the car right up and have it running without the flash. Also provide the info that Mark ask for...we may be able to help you more. Clive

lol, thanks. There are plenty of cops...I would just get on the highway before they got to me
