  1. I wouldn't waste your time on this one. That car is nothing near the value of the the buy it now price. I think I saw a few holes behind the rocker panels and doors. It looks to be clearly like a car someone is trying to push as better than reality. The pictures are a giveaway. Take the stickers off and it will look like any other $1,000 starter project.

    You can also post this stuff in your gallery and then provide a link to it from the forum.

    That's not a bad idea. It's actually quite easy for me to add to our existing system. It will probably be built into the user database and user profile database. Ie: It won't be a separate system. Instant messaging is already here. Check out the buddy list and the quick buddy window and you can get the instant messaging to work. The instructional videos is a great idea... That one will be a lot of effort on behalf of our members, but, we do have the infrastructure in place to support video uploads. We also have the infrastructure in place for product reviews. We just need people to upload their articles. Oh, and the gallery link is in the works. I lost the changes last upgrade. -- Mike

    Hi all, I am putting together a list of club features that are liked and are wanted at the club. For instance, the FORUMS are our most popular item. But, we also have other modules that give all the members a lot of benefits. For example, the CONTENT module will allow us to sponsor technical articles. The LINKS module gives us a list of many different websites on the Internet. And, I believe there are a few other features that are missing or offline at the moment. I'd be glad to know which one of these I should work on next. Anyway, please open this message in FORUM VIEW (link below) and look at my poll. Click on all of the features of this club that you think you'll use. Thanks! -- Mike

    What's illegal about converting cars and importing them to another country?
  6. Hi guys, these are known fraud emails. As a rule of thumb, NEVER NEVER follow a link in an email and type in your information on the web page that follows. In fact, never follow any URL in an email. You are correct, the link in your email may have 'appeared' to show the correct URL (in the email), but, when you click on it... make sure you look at the URL listed in your browser. The ONLY way to be sure if this is a fraud or not is to log directly into Paypal yourself (by typing in the URL in your browser). Log in and check your information.
  7. It's probably more practical to check the VIN and look at the feature differences.

    Sounds like a vapor lock issue, but, this thing is probably EFI. Did you check your fuel filters? Also make sure you have good electrical. Does this truck have a single coil? The vacuum tube idea is a good one. The key here is that it gets worse when the engine gets warm.

    OH MY GOD... a TRUCK question in a Z forum. We're all gonna burn in hell!!! I don't see the harm in a simple thread from a fellow member about his truck. It's not that big of a deal. Although it is a Z forum, this place is a community for people to get together to discuss various things. Considering this was started from a fellow member who is active in the Z community, it is totally appropriate. Fun_in_my_z, thanks for posting your concerns, but, this post is fine with me. We are a family of Z owners and I don't mind this kind of thing. -- Mike PS: If this was a thread started by someone who did not own a Z and not part of our membership, this might be another story.
  11. I did it the hard way. I sandblasted everything from underneath, primed it, and then used the rattle-can undercoating.
  12. Guys, let's keep this on topic. I had to go through and remove some flame posts. This thread should remain a discussion about lenses, thanks.

    Yep, you can upload WMV files.
  14. Actually, I've had more problems with the older members here. Please remember this is my site and I've put a lot of hard work into this place to make it a site for people to exchange information. I didn't create this place so people could come in and put it down. Please continue to exchange your ideas about these lenses because I'm curious to find out exactly what's happening with them. Why doesn't someone do a review on these? Perhaps Troy will send me a pair and I'll get another pair from the competitor. We have a very nice review section and it already has a few products posted by members. Perhaps we should set up something like this to clear up the misconceptions? Anyway, these are just some ideas. Thanks.

    I haven't seen one. Unless someone wants to rip it from a recording? Perhaps the file exists on the Internet somewhere.

    Umm... guys, I don't think he was talking about leaving due to any of the disfunction of some of our members. He was talking about leaving due to the season and that he won't be using his car until spring. Unless I read it wrong... ? Please don't die on us DZR!!

    Cool.. I'd like to get a video of that segment and put it in our gallery.

    Oh yea, that's the name... the other show is on Animal Planet... my OTHER channel. Or, I wonder if it's Real TV? I can't find "Max Ex" on the Spike TV website.

    Anyone watch the TV show called "Max EX?" It's on SPIKE TV a lot. Anyway, I saw a shot of a rally Zcar that lost control coming around a corner and took out one of the photographers. It was quite frightening, but, the photographer lived to tell about it. You should have seen the video of this Z coming at the guy full speed!!! It was amazing. -- Mike

  22. I don't believe you can get these anymore. Try to visit our sponsor, Motorsport Auto. http://www.zcarparts.com They might be able to source them for you..

    Nice!!! Hey, I am in the Albany/Corvallis area. Any get-togethers planned?

    I would complain if I lived in a neighborhood with a car in the front lawn with grass growing around it. Call me selfish, but, my home is an investment and I want that value to grow. I have had my fair-share of cars in the driveway, but, they usually aren't there longer than a week or two. If I do keep a junker, it's hidden along the side and out-of-sight from the front. Our neighborhood has CC&R's to cover this kind of thing. These are ordinances to control things like this. It also covers things like house paint color, commercial businesses, storage materials, etc. It's all pretty normal stuff.
