How much to outfit a shop?
Hi Bonnie, I'm assuming you have a building or garage in mind? Next, what kind of work will you need to do? Doing general maintenance is a lot different than pulling engines, rebuilding transmissions/rear-ends, etc..... If you can see where I'm going... this is an open-ended question. Some people spend $10,000 while others spend $1,000. I've even seen people (cough... 2manyZ's... cough) who assemble whole buildings just for their Zcar projects. [m]

Ever come to the realization that everything you think is actually wrong and only encouraged by what they want you to think? Think about it. I will be the first to admit that my assumptions have been wrong. Most of them are created by watching the news, listening to radio, and watching movies. Now, I try not to assume anything until I study the topic. I wouldn't be surprised if John Denver and Mr. Rogers used to be into that kind of thing. It's the NORMAL people I don't trust. Point? Wear 'who you are' on your sleeve for everyone to see!

well heres my new car
I'm not a big fan of the ZX, but, you have a nice one there! The blend of shiny paint, t-tops, and those Centerline wheels are PERFECT!! I've always wanted those wheels on my 240z. Don't let these guys give you too much $^!# about the ZX here on the site. You've been around for awhile and are considered part of the family. Have fun with it! -- Mike

A Warning To All Zcar.com Users
Actually, it is nice to know who we should avoid on Ebay... I love that comment "... is into porn" He had to reach into the insult-bucket pretty deep on that one.

Hi guys, I've edited this thread and removed (or edited) the bits I thought were not appropriate. Please try to refrain from posting information about other people here (unless, of course, it's in a positive light). If anyone is serious about finding someone, they can do searches on their own. Thanks! -- Mike

Windshields are also called windscreens. The trunk? It's called a boot.

**virus Warning**
Ha! But, ever heard of the 'expenses' virus? It can't be fixed without at least installing the 'work' virus first. Totally sucks. But, if you get one, the other is necessary to remove it totally. Man, I'd love to get the 'retirement' virus. Apparently, that virus is slow moving and doesn't do that much damage.

h4 conversions and other lighting ????
I'm not sure if the existing system will support that kind of bulb or not. When my car was running, I noticed that it had the similar headlight 'dim' associated with many other Z's. It was especially bad when I was younger and ran a high-voltage stereo system in my car. Times have changed for me and the car is sitting in the garage. But, I would consider upgrading the system because it would be pretty easy to do. Installing relays for the headlights can make a world-of-difference. -- Mike

World's 1st RB26DETT Z33 (350Z)
Those logos (on the images) suggest that it's an engineering company that probably has the resources to do this kind of thing. I would give my left nut to have that kind of fun!

Fuse box melt prevention?
Can you still buy new fuse boxes? I had one ordered many years ago and I never went to pick it up. Poor college student, was I.

Bingo... :cheeky: We all have differences of opinion. I like to see discussions where people present an opinion and provide possible solutions.

Newbie!
This is probably the one place where you won't get flamed for being a newbie. We've all been there. And, I respect the fact that you saved up your own cash instead of relying on your parents... makes you respect your car a little better. And, besides.... if someone flames you... I'll go after them.

Where do you get that idea? Bush asked the UN to be part of the war. They declined. Oil might be a part of the deal, but, it's not the ONLY reason. Read my sentence more carefully.

Thank you President Clinton
I've always wondered why people would loot, riot, and pillage their own neighborhoods. "Hey, I'm pissed off!! I'm going to burn down my own neighborhood!!" It just doesn't make logical sense to me. But, hey, I don't see how we could really control something like that. It sounds easy to say that we can crack heads. But, how exactly would you go about doing that? It's too easy to sit here behind our computers and come up with opinions, but, are they based on real-world facts and know-how? Not really.

The war isn't all about oil. People who think that are fooling themselves. There are other places to get oil.

Vote on a Wheel!
Go with Figher/Wood/Leather. That's a sweet wheel. How much is it? The others either look too modern or plasticy.
