  1. Thanks for the reply. I would consider myself a novice mechanic but I like to learn. I have most of the tools I would need including a welder, but some of the fabrication would have to be done by a professional.

     

    I'd still love to hear other's opinions as well.

     

    Jamie T- what do you have in your Z?

  2. On a scale from 1 to 10 (1 being any guy with a ratchet and a screwdriver can do it and 10 being full-fledged ASE certified "I can build a car out of a watermelon" kind-of guy) how difficult is the RB26DETT install process?

     

    Just so you guys know I have read through most of the major RB26 threads but I just wanted the opinion of the guys who have done it. I have about four to six months (i hope) of body/brake/suspension work to do before I decide on an engine. Just window shopping.

     

    J. Soileau - I noticed you are in Louisiana also but 240Z Turbo (who is doing some of your work right?) is in Florida. Is that the nearest shop that does this kind of work? I haven't been able to find much else.

     

    Thanks,

  3. My father has done both. He's about to go back to Iraq in July. Are you still active duty Quickdraw? I'm glad you finished your tour in one piece.

     

    I am in the Guard in Louisiana. I still have two years left with the 527th engineering battalion.

     

    Even though I went to Afghanistan, I have all the respect in the world for what the boys in Iraq are dealing with. We didn't lose anybody in our whole battalion. A few accidents with landmines here and there, but nothing like what the soldiers in Iraq deal with on a daily basis. Keep em in your prayers.

     

    Zhadman, What did you fly?

  4. First, I am brand new to the site. I have had my 280Z for about three years now and I am now able to afford the hobby. So here I am.

     

    I coudn't find fender swapping mentioned elsewhere in this forum. Will the 240 z fenders fit a 280? Also, I did read on Classic Z that the doors will not swap. Is this true?

     

    Thanks,

    Tanner
