turbo240

wow, that seems like the place to be! actually I'll be moving to Colorado Springs myself in July with my roommate we'll both be bringing our Zs up, so its great to know theres a scene up there! sorry if I hijacked, but good luck on the move!!!!

I'm a portugee, soo uhh DIBS!!!!!

then I guess my dream of being the star of a british beer commercial will never be realized ...it seems that I'm way too beatiful

ok so i'll fall on this grenade ...hahaha ...heater **** ...hehe sorry, tired.

one of his rear tires blew out. my dad used to be on the safety crew for that race & where it happened was right by the mile marker where he used to be posted. right around there is a slight dip in the road that causes crashes every year he saw a pantera disintegrate basically a few years back we figure the car hit the dip, the tire rubbed the fender, & wore a hole (which isn't hard at 190+ mph)

ya, it gets a little hot i'll admit but its not too bad. while running hipari most people up the tire pressure to around 40psi to avoid cupping, but most people that stretch tires do so for drifting so the tire isn't going to be around for very long.

as i recall they never mention the name of the black ship, they just refer to it as "the black ship" hotblack desiato & disaster area's stuntship. i cant freakin wait for the movie to come out. is that the one you were talking about?

for one. my 280 is flat black also. & 2 the style of stretching narrow tires over wide rims is called hipari. it eases the transition from grip to slip while drifting & makes for a little fender clearance in a pinch. also, if i get door dinged in the z i dont have to pay out the arse to get the area painted/color matched & dead roman was right, Nothing is meaner than a flat black z.

link isn't workin man, can ya post a pic?

both of you cut it out. if you want to talk about politcs start a different thread, or go elsewhere to argue. on a bit of a lighter note... theres actually a car club somewhere in the middle east (i think it might actually be Iraq) named weapons of mass destruction. 800hp skylines/supras & the like. they have all kinds of videos on the internet

sweet lord man!

how about a front drivers side strut assembly?

how much for the 15's?

what condition are the interior pannels in? also, what color?

i've seen hydrogen feuled rotary drag bikes... my dad used to hang out wth a guy who raced rotory bikes at bonnieville

links to these pages?

i read that article the other day at tower records, very interesting. i was glad to see the z get recognition like that

i have a set of front & rear bumpers for a 78 280 the the rubber on the front bumper has a small chunk out of it & on the rear bumper, there are small tears on the rubber endcaps (1 on each cap) if you're interested shoot me a pm. i'm building new bumpers for my 280 so i need to get rid of the old ones. by the way i'm in reno,nv

that ZX video is f*n fantastic. i'm in the process of building (2) 280Zs (a 75 & a 78) for drifting duty, so dont feel unappreciated.
