Drax240z Posted February 13, 2001 Share Posted February 13, 2001 Check out this sweet car!! Evan has one of the sweetest Z's I've seen. Though it'd probably be better with an engine! Hehe, don't kill me for that Evan. ------------------ Richard Lewis 1972 240z - L28TURBO transplant ongoing!

Evan Purple240zt Posted February 14, 2001 Author Share Posted February 14, 2001 Thanks guys, thats my lesson in internet jargon for the day LOL. My buddy ron made the hotwheels thing. Smartass... Thanks for the compliments guys. You can see my hood ontop of the cabinet in the upper left. Its been up there for a year now. Ouch. I need to get you guys some pics of my car when its clean. Theres like an inch of dust and crap on the thing, i have only washed it once in the last year and it has been sitting in my dirtyass garage LOL Anyway, Ill have more pictures with wheel closeups up next week. I can share those now that i know how to display images! Drax, where did you get the picture of my car not in the hotwheels thing? I dont think its posted is it? The problem is my car looks good, but youll notice the engine hoist with nothing on it in the front *sigh* Later fellas- Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted February 14, 2001 Share Posted February 14, 2001 Evan, those Montes look better IMO than your other wheels! They are so much cleaner looking and really add to that clean Datsun 240Z design. We want more pics!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spotfitz Posted February 14, 2001 Share Posted February 14, 2001 Sorry Evan. I was in such a hurry to work on my Z when I posted. Sweet looking rims though. It does bring out the beauty of the Z. Don't feel to bad. Atleast yours has been in the garage and not getting washed in the past year. I had to buy a house to get it mine out of the weather and I still haven't washed it in the past year. Very soon though. Get those pics up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted February 14, 2001 Share Posted February 14, 2001 Evan I like those wheels alot better as well. The paint on your car is SO SWEET, that putting a really shiny funky rim on it takes away from it, IMO. Those wheels really look great on there. What are you doing for an engine these days?

Evan Purple240zt Posted February 14, 2001 Author Share Posted February 14, 2001 Pete, thanks alot for the compliment on the paint. Im still drooling over your car. As for the wheel pics. Ill have more pictures up later of it hopefully. The engine compartment looks like poo cause its black. Maybe someday ill paint it to match the car! I really really wish i had done that. Engine is an intereresting story i wont get too far into. I am building a turbo motor, which more pics will be up of soon. I have been waiting FOREVER for the pistons. My HP goals are between 350 and 400 hp. I know they are high but ive had ALOT of time to get the parts i need to achieve that goal. I dont know whats going on the car next. Most likely a BRE rear spoiler painted to match of course. FYI, on the paint. My car isnt really that color. I had to darken it up a bit for the rims to show. Its pretty close though! Thanks all- Evan Here is what has been, or is going to get done before i drive again. I havent driven my car in over a year now. Its since gotten, new rims, coilovers, and the engine swap. Should be a totally different car when i take it out. Im excited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Purple240zt Posted February 14, 2001 Author Share Posted February 14, 2001 Heres my motor Evan PS there are no pistons in that block. Its just together to keep dust out [This message has been edited by Evan Purple240zt (edited February 13, 2001).] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax240z Posted February 14, 2001 Share Posted February 14, 2001 Hey Evan. Got the link to that picture off zcar.com, I think Ron put it up there. You know, I just realized how alike our cars may look. I've finally decide on a paint color, and while its not the purple/blue that you have, it is a darker metallic blue. I have the BRE spoiler on my car allready. And I'm using 5 spokes too. (I wish they were 17" though) As for changes between drives of the car, I will be up there too. I have no idea what the car is going to feel like. The only modifications from stock when I got the car were toyota calipers, 5spd and whale's tail. My list of modifications from stock is... well getting up there to put it lightly. (you can check my website if you are really interested) I haven't driven a Z in 5 months and its driving me crazy!
