I was unable to figure out how to tell it that I had parked. I was in the spot, centered, not touching anything yet the clock kept running....

I think not Gary. This IS a driving technique, there's no question about that and thus is on topic for this thread. Furthermore, the originator of this thread even said that he was glad I asked because this is something he has always wondered about himself...so there was certainly no hi-jacking happening there. For those that explained this technique in detail thank you. I have heard of people including racers using this technique for years and never really understood the purpose or just how to do it. Seem like something that I will have no need to employ in the driving of my Z. Though another technique that was just mentioned is of interest to me. Dave, please tell me more about this 'Scandinavian flick' as I will be autoxing my Z and feel as though this would be very useful.

Given the VIN and it's apearant condition the asking price is MORE than fair!!

Hey, on this topic can someone please explain 'double clutching' to me?

Jon, I am not looking to learn the details of how an LSD works...just looking for one for my Z in an R180 3.9 configuration.

Here's a little tool that you should play with to give you an idea of what would be best also: http://www.geocities.com/z_design_studio/

Here's the link I was looking for the other day. These are the diffs that I am aware of and why I was asking my previous question. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1568&perpage=15&pagenumber=2 I've got one of those R180 3.9 units that will be going into my car and if I can get an LSD R180 3.9 that would be even better!!

No doubt the designer liked the Z, it just has so many similar lines like e_racer1999 said.

Very cool, add that to my list also! :classic:

There's a guy on hybridz selling an R200 LSD 3.9 ratio from an Infinity J30 right now! Jon, please tell me about the R180 3.9 LSD. I was unaware that these existed! I have the R180 3.9 from the front of a 720 4x4 truck already and would prefer an LSD unit.

I have always used Meguiars as well and love the stuff!!

Any need to worry about moisture in the air from the compressor or not?

One more thing....HAND THROTTLE!! The whole setup preferably.

What's the VIN on that parts car and what do you have left of it (pix would be great)? I'm always on the lookout for good parts.

Interesting! Our cars are 1 month apart and only 942 VINs between us.

What is left of these two? Do you have pix? I have an early car and can always use some parts... :classic:

Thanx for the correction. You can add these to my list also: Rally clock assy (2 pieces) Fog/auxillary lights

Do you have a link to the solution on Hybridz?

JDM front grill for 240Z JDM tail lights JDM valve covers (NISSAN, the 2400 one, etc)

Yes Judi, where are you?

I looked in my box and there are no installation instructions. I was really wanting to share the info... Sorry guys.

Yes, thank you for the lead...I placed my bid yesterday as well.

I do have my entire music collection ripped to MP3. This does make the decision as to what to put on the iPod a bit more difficult, I just chose my favorites and put them in my playlist, my wife chose her's and put them in her play list, we put all the kid's music in their playlist, I have an audio book playlist where I rotate audio books, and a couple other playlists for specific items such as motivational that stay on there all the time. Any of these playlists may be changed on a whim or as our tastes change or we get tired of the songs on the iPod (hard to get tired of this many songs though since this is a far greater variety than the radio plays) etc. WOW! I must say that I'm impressed you can hear the difference through such low fidelity 'speakers' most can not...including me. You probably were in band or otherwise tied very tightly to music at some point to have developed that level of listening skill (just based upon past person's I have known who have also had a really good ear for sound quality). My songs where not downloaded, they are all from my music collection which I ripped to MP3 though that was a time consuming process when I did it a few years back. Why did I do this? 1) backup! I have lost a few irreplacealbe CDs due to a car theft and do not wish to repeat this so my originals stay safe and sound at home these days (also just in case a CD gets scratched I now have a backup). 2) I have a webserver hosting all these songs so I can listen to them anywhere I have an internet connection (used before the iPod was introduced). 3) I have them all on my fileserver at home and from there they are served up to my arcade in the game room which has an ejukebox software program on it (VERY cool system!!). Listening to the radio is fine and I do still do so often. Though the one down fall to that is on a long trip you have to constantly search for new stations and in the back roads there are not always good stations that come in. Furthermore, I have a VERY broad taste in music (rap, rock, alternative, hip-hop, dance, top 40, classical, electronica, big band, etc) and there is no station I have ever heard of that covers all of this...my iPod does. Tomo clarified this already. What player will play a dual layer DVD in a car? Some of the newest all-in-one style units with the video screen probably. I have not see any though I have not been shopping for car audio in quite some time now. Even 5 CDs can be distracting to unload and load while driving (get a CD changer that will play MP3s). I'm gonna go listen to my iPod while doing the DEW now just for the hell of it!!! While I agree that a portable DVD player has it's place it's not the right solution for me in this situation. Isn't it wonderful that there are so many products on the market that there's bound to be the right one for everyone's needs/tastes/desires! :cheeky: I also just want to say that I do have a true iPod so that is my expeience. Though when I say iPod it can be assumed that this is a 'generic' term, much like when people say "hand me a Kleenex" they do not specifically mean that brand it could be Puffs or "I'm going Rollerblading" what they really mean is in-line skating, and as such ANY portable MP3 is acceptable.

Would love it except that you do not live near me and S&H to Texas zip 78613 is probably cost prohibitive.

As zack and jmortensen has illustrated there are brackets included in the kit for mounting without drilling or cutting. I'll see if I can dig out the install instructions and scan them then post the PDF here to help show this. I should have been a little more clear instead of just saying "mounting hardware".
