Good Idea! All i need to know is find out where that car is.....:devious: :bandit: J/KLOL

here goes......

I guess it is okay to drag a Z. it must be fun. But they destroyed the buetiful looks of it. Looks like a dodge daytona front and corvette rear. yuck!!! Put the creators in Jail!

Well I just got back from the hospital around 11:00. I still have some pain I can't breath to deeply, eat anything heavy, or move too fast since anything that exerts any pressure to my abdomen hurts like crazy. Well my car is bad, real bad. The thought of an SUV collision to me now is more than a nightmare. I was hit by a Chevy Caviler. Their licence plate landed behind my drivers seat. The door came up and hit my hip. The car flexed alot, one of the front strut towers bent the carberator filter cover on my weber DGVs and there is quite a distance between them.. On the master brake cylinder one of the caps flew off. The engine still turs over though. After the wreck wy adrenaline must have been flowing cause I felt no pain crawled out the passenger side.. Thank God I will make a full recovery in a couple of months. I will be praying always from now on for all you guys that you never ever have to experience an accident like mine.

this is andrea, ernie's sister and i am on the phone with him right now from the Hospital, he wishes to share some words with all of you back here at the forum...(im typing it as he speaks) ERNIE: "Thank you for all your prayers, concerns and thoughts. My sister was able to print them out and send all your support to me here at that hospital. It was inspiring to hear from the Zclub and I truly appreciate all your endless support. Looks like I will be out of the hospital on wednesday but will have to take it easy for a couple of months. I am very grateful to still to be alive but i still feel bad for my car. hearing from all your guys made me feel better and made it easier for me to cope with the sentimential lost of my precious 240Z. I really respect this club, not only is there so much knowledge theres also alot of commodary, you can post a question without criticism and almost allows get a good (right) answer. Thank you all! ps. i'll probably have my 280Z to drive around, and in couple of years I have to have that 240Z." --Ernie aka fstr240z

Do you mind sacraficing a few comforts for alot more fun? Do you want a good balance? I have daily driven 2 280zxs, 240z, and 78 280z. My favorite by far is the fumes in cockpit, loud exhaust, roll down the windows, light on its feet, nimble, 240z. However the 280z is smother riding when you have to encounter certain bumpy roads but feels different, but feels good with a/c and all that and still turns heads. The 280zx was really great, smooth, still had plenty of grunt, just felt more proper. The t-top version is way fun for that cruise, I still miss that alot. If you are gonna be taking that girl out the 280zx and 280z are good. I have trouble taking the girl in the 240z cause she has no taste for a loud exhaust or messy hair. Plus I am prone to driving the car faster than I should. THe fume thing ain't so bad on my car, but i have heard in some cars it can be.

The T-5 tranny is a manual right? Found in a camaro? I know if i go the V8 route in one of my Zs I want a manual.

What is the differance between the resistor type spark plug and the non-resistor type? I went to the parts store and they gave me resistor type spark plugs cause they were all they had, I thought that my car called for non-resistor type. I told the parts guy and he told me they fit and will work better. I do not believe him. I didn't buy them, but does it matter?

Sounds like a good product, but for $50 for 6.75oz., I guess it better be.

I had that erratic timing problem once and it turned out to be the condenser on the distributor($3).

I agree with ALFADOG & sjcurtis. Sicko,

Thanx , TKR and 2 many I was thinking the IMSA also but I saw differences. I guess those BSR & Jim cook racing flares are probably out of production right? QUOTE : Yep, your fiend should. Yeah sometimes I could call him a fiend.

tkr 514: this isn't my car this is my friends car and I like his flares. Definitely he has rust issues. He didn't add the flares the car came with them and the car was already rusty. Ignoring that I was wondering if anyone recognizes these flares. These flares are probably pretty old and they are fiberglass.

now the spoiler....camaro? what is it?
