That's a big compressor ya got there sweetgrrl, but mine is bigger. 6 HP. how 'bout a pic of you wrapped around the compressor?? Ed, I was hoping for a pic in shop coat with a rag and a wrench.

'O Lord! Guy's she's gonna do bodywork!!! UH say Holly, maybe, uh, umm, maybe, we could go shopping for Z parts? Yeah that's it Shopping for parts.

Yeah, that's it. It's busted. Yeah. Beside I would not insult her BEAUTY by posting a mugshot of my grill here. Besides LA County doesn't let you keep those when your released!

Maybe one to many "takillyas" While on that trip. and maybe you don't remember buying all the drinks!!! :devious: Wonder how far the full tank in the Zed will get me Due east??

So how bout it Holly? Would you like us to know what you and your wrenches look like? :devious: You know for the guys, so they can put a face to the name. Right guys??? :devious:

Sweetgrrl how many HP on your compressor??? AAAAIIIRRRRRRRR TOOOLLLLLSSSSS (cleaning the drool!) Hey Sweetgrrl wanna go check out the breaker yard with me???? HUh???? Please! I'll bring the gloves. No grease under the fingernails! Northern NJ Larry: A gentlemen always asks :devious: . Hey my low slung is outside just like all you guys! S30 I mean. Geez! franksinlove13.

Besides with your guys help she fixed her own Z. Now Zhe can come out and enjoy sunny So Cal at the MSA Nationals. Holly, I'll be the cute one!! Pancho, RENT????? Will wrench for food! Oddly enough that sign does not work on the freeway off ramps Carl what's this about chinoZ ordering up hot chicks to drop off tires? Man I need new tires too. :devious:

Zilly me I think i got it now. Laugh my Azz off? Yes/ no? If So, :devious:

Hit a flying rat that walk out in front of one of my Z's once. Heard it hit the corner of the valence (thought it was gonna go under the wheel and make a mess), heard it tumble under the floor board under the old ladoes side then looked in the rearview to see it pop out and up. Landed back on the road. Asked the old ladie if it was dead. she said no, but it's giving us the pigeon finger!!!! . :devious:

Hum? Anybody? :disappoin

sweetgrrl, so was that good or bad? (lmao)??????? :devious:

O my! My heart be still. Yeah electrical sucks. It's only fun when it's on the bench. when it some intermitten on the car I start searching for the gas can and matches. :devious:

Need nice very clear pics of the pieces and block :devious:

Holy Cr@p, guys I think i'm in love!!! sweetgrrl do you own your own tools??? This is very cool. The post by the few female members did not (to me) seem that deep into the wrenching. Sounds like you've trouble shot electrical before. Trained Tech? :devious:

The Starter motor doesn't even pull that! Most fan relays are rated around 30 Amps. What ever you pulled the fan outa's original relay rating will be more than the maximum that the motor will pull at any given time, and max duty cycle. :devious:

Turbo 280's get dished pistons. Non turbos have flat top pistons. The dished pistons lower compression to keep the turbo motor from self destruction. Flat top piston would increase compression, and depending on head/block combo increase performance due to increased compression ratio. If done right. What was the rest of the thread about? Sorry to who ever wrote it but they are wrong. Chech the C/R of any most OEM Turbo motor, and it will be lower than the N/A counter part. :devious:

Hey Matt wanna use my 4X5????? Frank :devious:

Sorry John. grunt 0311 are you going to the Motorsport show? If so are you bringing any parts to sell? Maybe a nice air dam? Or the sort? :devious:

I was also wondering about other members from around the so. cal area that were going (Victor, SER240Z, chinoZ, come to mind). To met up and actually met one another and either caravan down or met at the car show sunday. this would be way cool! I was hoping Mike's thread about the t-shirts sizes had something to do with the up coming show. I am at least planing on going for the sunday show. A group meeting of the clubs members is a good idea. Anybody else got the samr idea? :devious:

O by the way if this shop in question actually did make reference to a lockup convert for your Zed, steer clear of them. Sound like A holes! Do a tranny service on your trans. Drop the pan, oil, filter. Clean all the gray, gold looking dust of the bottom(inside) of the pan. This is used/shaved metal from the inner workings of your tranny. replace the filter (this will come in a filter kit). Clean the old gasket of the pan rail real nice like. Put a couple of bolts through the pan and gasket (this will also come in the kit) at the conners to try to hold the gasket in place while you start to thread the bolts. Then start threading the rest of them. Button up all bolts even, going all around the pan. Refill if condition worsens tranny needs a rebuild. The torque converter could alos be on it's way out. Take to a GOOD Tranny shop and ask for a diagnosis. Maybe you'll get away with only having to replace the torque converter. Is the fliud level on the dip stick Where it should be? :devious:

Torque Converter Control. Or Lockup Convert. Electrical Lockup converter, such as those used on 80's and above As far as I know the Z 3 speed is a strieght 3speed auto like the Turbo Hydromatic 350, no Electrical lock up converter. Lockup converters come on OBD I compliant car or trucks. Does your Tranny have any electrical connectors into the Tranny? :devious:

On the center cap that is made out of black plastic it only reads U S MAGS around the edge. That I could make out. It also seems to fit in through the rear and snap in place. I could not take any pics, being that the digi cam is not on the tool list to take along to the breakers. Just really hoping some one out there had experience with these rims so I could be better informed as to thier fitment. I am thinking of maybe getting them. But not all that sure about the lug situation. :devious:

Spoke wheels. Look like Revolutions, but the center area is not as clean. The spokesare black, with the lip polished. :devious:

Sorry folks, the rims are made by US MAGS. They look like Revolution wheels. But the bolts circl is not nearly as clean lookibg as the Revolution wheels. I tried fitting them on a 4 bolt 300ZX and the fit. But with no real room for shank type lug nuts. By the marking of the lug area it looks like regular open wheel lugs would by used. So with the right NAME, now has any one used these wheels? Anybody? I am pertty sure I have ssen these on 280ZX's and early 300's. Any relavent info is much welcomed. :devious:

Any of you cats got US Wheels on your Zed's? I searched in the gallery for pics of these rims. Nothing. I was looking to see if anyone was running these? There are five spoke (black) with polished lip. Four bolt. I think I remeber seeing 280's run these somewhere, so if these are the same type rims could some one who has them post a pic or other info on them. Thanx :devious:
