Heloo Posting some ANSA stickers I found. The 1st one is a really big fender decal and I have 2 of those and the race car version is the reverse window style and two of those aswell I think there pretty cool and they're NOS Vintage aswell and not reproductions. Don't know who the Crocodile Club was though. And the last one is one of the famous muffler decals on the actual mufflers. ~Z~

StickerMan,,, PM sent to ya. ~Z~

Freaking Awesom! 35 bucks!, Thats pretty cheap I heard or read somewhere it was $500 which I thought was rediculous, thyanx. Any one know of any Dynos in the Sacromento, CA area by chance or Bay Area? You of theam all the time on Horse Power TV, the Speed Channel and in most magazines. Dsport, (see my signiture below), speaks of them all the time. The best numbers are the ones broken down into "wheel" Horse Power and not the numbers refering to power made at the flywheel instead. After all its the power to the ground that matters. I mainly want to see what some of the more simlple MSA upgrades will do like the aluminum radiator and electric water pump and high capacity oil pump. As wells as a header test like the old 6 into 2 versus the 6 into 1 debate backed with solid numbers for a change, unless thats already been done :cheeky:. ~Z~

How much does it cost to use a DYNO, not an engine Dyno but the kind where you strap the car on it and let it run? Jus like to know how much HP some upgrades will make ove stock. ~Z~

Well said.

Freaking Sweet ! ok, so which one is rather preferred for Drag Racing :beard: ? Looking at a 3 - 2 header as well from Nissmo or MSA (for the N47 head). Interesting to learn these facts today Blue Meanie, and keep ROCKIN' ON ~Z~

and lets not forget EBAY :squareeye :beard:

HAHAAA , I like this reason for tha name better . But interesting topic non the less, although I know my Z knows her name already regardless of date.

Thats not bad, not bad all at all, matches your cars color schem pretty good Though we all know where my biasnes lies might I suggest this bumber sticker though Photo curtesy of member Rainman ~Z~

OK this just in... The Damage list in the case of "Carb Gasket on FI Z". 1~ Oil pan gasket leak was worse off than thought, in other words the crankcase wasn't even sealed properly and the preasure was coming out in so many words. 2~ "Something" from the timing chain had broke off and was laying in the bottom of the oil pan! 3~ The cam oiler spary bar wasn't even WORKING ! ! ! ! AT ALL ! ! ! ! ! ! 4~ Head gasket was a cheap copper type instead of the steal layered kind which should've been used hence the leak from that. and 5~ We dont know what caused this but one of the crank bearings was so pitted Nakatsu said had Ruby been a V8 it would've BLEW. A testament he said to how well our S30 Z's were built, L24/26/28 and all. I dont know who originally rebuilt my Ruby girls engine but they did not do S*#$ right. I know I know I know I shouldn't cous but this has all the markings of sabotage or complet incompetiance. ~Z~

Nice Niooccceeeee You know what they say, "The best cure for a hill, is TORQUE" ~Z~

I just get the 1st half of my invoice for Rubys engine rebuild and so far we're in it for $1,761.25 :nervous: ARP Head Studs $142 ARP Rod Bolts $56 Decked Block $80 Polish Crankshaft $45 Honed Rods $85 Honed Cylinders $50 Pulling Engine Labor $588 Build Engine Labor $700 Next on the list is ordering a set of JE Forged Pistons and Rods with offset piston pins, another $700+ still have the brakes and 6-2 headers to go and high capacity oil pump, aluminum radiator and electric fan. Almost done though, hopefully I can get her done by July as long as this symbol (($))stays away :cheeky: ~Z~ PS, that damage report is still coming in.... lets jus say it wasn't good.....

Hello, Welcome to the Club yo Sounds like your off to the proper start already are you going for the drag, street or track set up with you diff gearing?

Thyanx yo but totally different style, I do have a set of those on hold for myself though ,They are nice. ~Z~

I had a look at my frinds 2 Shelby rims again and they are the exact same as the Vectors on the LEE. And they are 10 spokes like the Vecs but in the 4 Lug bolt pattern. He beleives Shelby but his name on them but were made by a different rim manufacture instead or "sourced out" to someone other than American Racing aswell. Well if any one has a lead on 4 Lug Vectors or look alikes please let me know. Thyanku ~Z~

Agrrreeed ! OK, everybody sign your name on the piece of paper being passed around And also lets talk specs :love: who'd like to see what?

Ahh thats cool somebody posted that. But come on.. you gotta Luv this Dont get more 70's than if it was on a van !:laugh: ~Z~

Now that is FREKIN AWESOME ! ! I'd buy that over any 350Z anyday of the week ! The only thing that comes as close to that in terms of style is one of the newer Lotus Elise cars. Also looks a little like a BMW Z3 or Z4 coupe from this view too. ... I 2nd that. 370Z?, a HKS or Blitz turbo on a stock 35 could fix that easy. Bigger engine? Same car? Yeah Cam what gives? Is that a real concept car or not? Cause I know some people who know some people who'll ROB some people But seriously, whats tha scoop on that car and what does "GRID" stand for on the license plate? The fabricator? ~Z~

The Shelbys or the Vecs? My friend was pretty sure his were Mags but I wouldn't know, The Shels did have the Black center cap with the cobra logo though FYI if that helps none.

haha , YEAH THYANX DeesZ I didn't realize they looked exactly alike. Thier may be a very slight difference but the Shelby rims are in 4 lug pattern. I'll get a pic from my friend of the wheel he has to compare just to make sure, but thats what they look like, a magnessium wheel with 12 spokes instead of the Vectors 10 spokes (if I counted right :bandit:) ~Z~

No one seen these rims? I thought they were kind of a popular mag back in the day

Engines' FINALLY OUT ! WOO HoooOOO ! The clutch flywheel and such looks good (AATCO did thier job :tapemouth) and so far we know we need a new engine harness or at least the needed connectors and the radiator is SHOT. Other than that the basic routine tear down will commence with more updates on what a Carburetor gasket on a FI Z will do :surprised. JE pistons have been added to the list as opposed to the COSWORTHS which I was gonna get but we all know how expensive those can be, $1,700 for a set of six! This months Dsport magizine has a speed shop section on pistons, how they work and the makers of such high quality parts click on sig below for more . Also might get the JE's made as custom specs but more on that later but advice is also welcomed since I'm blind to that much of it . Well back to the shop I go, Thyanx for your support so far guys Progress is always great! ~Z~

Hey Will Issue 1 Volume 1, hasn't that mag been out for awhile? Thought it was out for a few years. ~~ edit edit, My bad, I was thinking of Nastalgic Hero :tapemouth ~~

Hello all. I have a parts request for a friend, he's looking for a set of the Shelby wheels that look like the Vector Racing Rims from the Dukes of Hazard Charger, if that helps. The Shelbys are 12 spokes similar to the Vetors 10 spoke design but instead have a "wall" around the lug nuts which the spokes flow out from to the edge of the rim. Sorry I don't have a picture but I've seen these before and thats about as best I can desribe. They are ofthen times confused for Western Wheel Turbines. Looking for a whole set or enough individuals and one spare, center caps not needed. Thaynx ~Z~
