Careless Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 mull, a clear indicator that your project has been sleeping for too long is the dust on your RB26 deck. LOL good show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Asta-Rolf's Sis Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 WOWIE, Philip, you've almost convinced us to hang on to our California 1971 240z rather than selling it. GREAT videos and step-by-step scenario. Way to go! Ours is here http://www.classiczcars.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=3227 .... but maybe you've done it! Made us reconsider and keep her. Thanks, and may your best dreams become reality! ":0) Asta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mull Posted October 24, 2008 Author Share Posted October 24, 2008 Thanks Asta! Glad you like the project! Hope you come around and change your mind. I'll sure keep my Z until it vaporizes or something : ) ------------ The lack of updates now is due to waiting for my theory man (chassis guy) to do some calculations on where the S14 front end should go. I'd like the geometry to end up as good as it can possibly be. Should be some more engine-action come next week though. I hope. Guess we'll see... Plans include sand blasting the valve/timing belt covers and painting them. I'm pretty annoyed with the exchange rate btw, the dollar's gone up a whole lot recently, which adds $140 (compared to the end of june) to my order-to-be from MSA. It's not much, but it's still pretty annoying when I keep thinking I could've placed the order 4 months ago Whatever. Chassis/engine is first, then after a whole bunch of things it's time for cosmetics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Asta-Rolf's Sis Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 BRILLIANT WORK! Not only are you tenacious as can be, but you documented the step-by-step processes with really great style! Makes me look at our '71 in a whole new way. Thanks for teaching us so much in a most entertaining way, loved the videos and music! What fun! You sure have a lot of expertise and patience.

RB26powered74zcar Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Looking good!! What, no crank collar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mull Posted December 8, 2008 Author Share Posted December 8, 2008 Looking good!! What, no crank collar? Nope. Got any reading/links that lay out the benefits of them? I've only found and read this Will only be running modest hp @ N1 block, stock crank, N1 oil pump, N1 water pump. Should be fine(?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rturbo 930 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Downloading... Edit: mull, I think there may be something wrong with your video, since WMP won't play it, and uh... its 12KB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mull Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 No - but there may be something wrong with the way you're downloading it. Don't right click > save as. Just click it. Wait, insert verification, download! Unless you're a paying rapidsharer - then you could've saved as (assuming you had server choice on auto) : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
