here they are! dent in intercooler

ill try again,

and the damage to my car if any one cares to look, be forewarned its not pretty. Unproffesional

ummm enough to try and drive it from alaska to here in pa that is one sweet ride, what i wanted to do to my 71 but it never happened. im in love with that car, its got it all looks and speed. very very sweeeeeeeet! could i buy that for a dollar

all i have to ask you is HOW MUCH! I WANT I WANT I WANT

though you could buy a haynes manual for a cheap price, you cant get all the detailed information and circuit tests schematics and the like that you can from the FSM its a must have for any Z man or woman i didnt know about the other book though, thanks for the tip alan

i dont have a house that looks like anythig these guys have alan was right you guys do live like lords

its a sony explode cd player, works well, replaced the stock speakers with polk audio units i bought on ebay sounds great for what it is

i should have went and done it myself, but i let many people tell me they do good work. then again there cars have had everything done to them there at this place. built from the ground up ive seen some really nice and really expensive cars going in and out of there so i figured all was good. i guess its the money you spend there, is the type of service you get.

i explained exactly what i wanted him to do. i made it clear i want MANDREL bends, thats what i dont under stand i could have gotten press bent from a freind for much much less. then the cheap what seems to be radiator hose, thats the real kicker. i told them this side is already cut out and ready for the pipes to go threw. i showed him everything. it just pisses me off to no end everytime i think about it.

well i went to have my new 944 ic mounted and plumbed into my 280ZX. i picked the car up at closing so i could not call the shop back right away to discuss all that i found totaly wrong. first off i told them i wanted mandrel bent piping, i get press bent piping, that was the first thing i asked when i when there is do you have a mandrel bending machine for pipe and the owner said yes. second thing i noticed was that the top of my ic now has a small bend in it that wasnt there before. third they had used what seems to be radiator hose for a deisel, instead of silicone hose. i had made it clear also that i wanted my bov mounted as close to the throttle body as possible, this was not done and it was posted on my reciept that it was alright where it was. they cut a hole out of the other side of my rad support, that wasnt needed. all in all i could have bought all the bends and silicone hose myself from jcwhitney, spent less and personally done a better job. wasted was 235 dollar for a real shotty job. im just wondering do i have any recourse, is there anything i can have done, since the job wasnt performed the way i requested. i mean this is supposed to be the "speed shop" of choice in my area, if this is whats to be expected of them then i really need to find a good place to go to for this sort of work. any suggestions would be appreciated

no matter how you cut it paint or look at it its just not that exciting, not to mention its still a cookie cutter car. :sick:

it is 1 5 3 6 2 4 the way i remember it is to young, to old, and just rightLOL

but the sugar scoop assembly wont. the part number for the lights shlould be the same from 70-83

give me the whole damn car:love:

your t stat seems to work operative word seems, and so does your waterpump, both are very inexpensive and cheap insurance against damaging that head you just put some good money into. not only that both parts are easy to r and r. be safe instead of cheap and replace those old parts. its just good sense and even better insurance. not trying to pine on that but like the others said its just the right thing to do

and then you can fly by the v8's in your six cylindered Z hehe:love:

i dont have a Z anymore:sleepy: but i now have a ZX, neither are pics of them in front of my house, but here they are the 71 and the 83ZXT heres the ZXT i currently have right now and here is my former 71 ( dont think the guy i sold it to is such a Z lover as me though )

to me it sounds like you are running absolutely full out rich. first thing i would check is the cold start and the afm. running that rich i cant see how you would have detonation though. pull your plugs and see what they tell you they should be black and fuel fouled if im right

200hp would be a piece of cake!

st springs sway bars and tokico blue struts. excellent combination and handled extremly well with only H rated tires. for autocrossing i would definetly go with the illuminas with the st setup and illuminas i think you will be highly impressed

the oil cooler attatchment, the filter mounts down below, there should be lines coming off of it for the oil cooler

the wheels on a Z are supposed to be torqued to 65 ft. lbs

uploaded your pics of your Z! they are under key work marksZ

going to carbs from efi isnt that hard, just have to tune the properly and you would also have to have the engine to do it as well. triples on a stock engine wont net much if anything but more gas consumption.
