Guest TheHappyHeathen Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I'm getting ready to take the leap and start blowing money on a 25 year old car. I want to retool the suspension for more traction and closer to the road feel without tightening it up too much to have fun, suggestions? '81 280ZX, so I don't know what kind of parts are out there, but I don't really wanna salvage junkyard parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody 82 ZXT Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 If the suspension is worn out then I would start with some new shocks and struts along with some performance springs. After that or at the same time some polyurethane bushings. You can take the ZX much futher but, I would say those are the most common and biggest improvements to the ZX. Ofcourse if you do some searching you'll find more and more deatiled info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TheHappyHeathen Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Hey now, there still room for strip clubs and jack daniels after I fix up the car. Besides are you gonna take one of them home on a bus? (As if you're going to anyway) Thanks for the links though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelly Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 God I just want this pig DONE so I can get back to the Zcar... Had to shove it off into the corner so I could finish fixing the vette... The stripper, 'er wife was laughing at me, because I was grumbling and fussing about having to work on the corvette instead of the Zcar... Where's that bottle...

auxilary Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 see, I could never do strip clubs, especially in california... why? -costs money to get in -you spend money on strippers so they perform acts and the major downsides. -you can't touch them -they can't touch you -you can't touch yourself So you wind up with a case of blueballs you can't relieve. I can do all of the above for free in the privacy of my own home with internet connection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeatRaveR Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 and the major downsides. -you can't touch them -they can't touch you -you can't touch yourself Had the law changed? I haven't been to a strip joint in several years, but the last time I had (San Fran.), I was able to touch above the waist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
