    By 'bumper' I'm sure you mean license plate.
  2. After viewing what's been said here, and assuming that you are planning to keep the FI, use an FI head. I don't know if anyone has ever modified a E88 head for the factory FI but it sounds costly.

    Maybe a little off-topic but does any manufacturer currently offer vinyl tops? I don't recall seeing any car built in recent years with one. Maybe my mind just blocks them out. Never did like them on anything, Z or otherwise.
  4. The main reason that so many cars are FWD now is that production cost is lower than RWD. It has been my experience that FWD cars are more difficult and more expensive to maintain. There are problems that come up on a FWD car that are nonexistant on a RWD car. I have vowed never to own another FWD car. That's just my preference.
  5. There are different cups depending on the transmission you have. Make sure you use the right one.

    Would that be a mass air flow sensor? I've heard of it being done. It would require more sophisticated engine managment that the early Z has. Let us know if you get it working.
  7. The good doctor died in 1996 but his legend lives on. I was bored yesterday so I did a little test. (No LSD involved other than the differential ) I jacked up my 810 (open diff) and tested it and it responded just like yours, although I couldn't get it to do the 'somtimes niether.' I then jacked up my wife's J30 (viscous limited slip R200) and both wheels spin in the same direction when you turn either one.
  8. I would also add that while you're in there, replace the hoses with fuel injection hose as they will last longer than regular fuel line. That is unless a 240 requires specially formed hoses.
  9. Some photo programs have the option to change other formats to .jpg. When I have a chance I'll look through mine and let you know which ones will do that. My wife is in the hospital and I've been doing a lot of running back and forth between home and there so my time on the computers is somwhat limited of late. (She's okay, routine surgery, and she should be coming home this evening)
  10. I had the same problem the other day trying to upload the '240Z Restoration Checklist' earlier in this thread. Anyone else having this problem?
  11. Even nicer job of removing the letters.
  12. The statement was not aimed at anyone, any race, any nationality, any sexual orientation, or any whatever one might attempt to apply to it. It was simply an observation based on what I've seen since I've been here. Here I am attempting to explain my own opinion only to see it twisted into something much more serious than was my intention, which was not serious at all. I think that the rest that followed more than bares out the comment. Can we all just get along?
  13. Vicky, I, too, understood what you meant. But based on other things I've read on this site, I also expected the comments that followed.
  14. If only she hadn't said 'specifications.' Oh well.
  15. Ah, the old V8-6-4
  16. Maybe the 2-5 hp would be enough to, at least, offset the weight of the stickers.

    At least you guys have teams. I live in So Cal but not far enough south to Claim the 'lightning bolts.' (Thank goodness for that!)
  19. He paid $28000 for it three years ago? :stupid:
  20. I had previously posted this in the wrong thread.:stupid:The screws appear to go through the plexiglass.

    I sent basically the same email about two weeks ago with the same results.
  22. I'm on your side, Bill. Remember, you're never going to be able to please everyone.
  23. Bill, I thought it was funny but then I don't come here to be serious.
  24. Let's see if I remember the degrees. B.S.-we all know that one, M.S.-more of same, and PhD-piled higher and deeper. I, however, have a B.A.
  25. Can't vote twice.
