Tinted windows on a 240Z
Nice Truck Nate. My Z has tinted door glass and quarter glass. I like it in the Nebraska summer, lots of sunshine. Had a tinted "240Z" band at the top of the windshield but took it off due to the lettering peeling. My Xterra's rear doors and rear cargo glass are tinted as well. Makes it a little harder to see what goodies I just bought at Best Buy!! Chris

What Fire Extinguisher to buy?
Hey Bill, I would recommend a "Multi Purpose" one rated A,B and C. A=Trash, Wood, Paper B=Liquids and Gases C=Energized Electrical Equipment I would also suggest a reloadable one. If you use it or its charge becomes weak from lack of use, you can take it to a service dealer and have it recharged. Its usually cheaper to have them recharged than to buy a new replacement. Here's a good link to the vendor I buy mine from. http://www.kiddeus.com/Fire+Extinguisher+Catalog.shtml Chris

Acid Etch? Quick Question
Thanks Enrique, you're right on, tack cloths can either help or harm. I knew you'd chime in on this thread, you the Master!!! Chris

Acid Etch? Quick Question
I would wipe the car down with tack cloths myself, then put on your metal prep solution. Then tack the car again before you put primer on as well. The cleaner the surface the better the end result will be. I use PPG DX440 Ditz-O wax and grease remover. Put some on a rag and wipe the area you want to prep My .02 Chris

reversal
My 73's are on upside down, bought it that way, the hood doesnt rub, I'd like to flip them but I can just see the studs snapping off as soon as I attempt it. Someday I'll get brave and turn them around. Chris

Z Racecar model link
If Alan(HS30-H) is watching, I'm sure he knows. Maybe Ben(V12horse). I've seen the car but I cant remember what website that talked about its history. Chris

Video: what my Z would dream about
Great stuff Dave. Like the in-car footage on the track. Makes me ready to go to my local track. Gotta get a video camera first! http://www.midamericamotorplex.com/code/track_main.asp Chris

How Old?
Okay, enough of this geezer stuff. If you're driving a Z then you're a long way from the 79 year old with the bad eye sight in the 81 Sedan Deville at the local Mega-Lo Mart smacking his bumpers off everything in sight. And then driving away completely unaware that he just caved in the rear fender on a Subaru.... Sorry...had a moment there. :classic: Chris

I have a Dodge Ram 1500 SLT Quad Cab 4x4 with a 345 horse Hemi...17MPG on highway...but its a work truck. :nervous: I promise you Victor that it wont EVER be seen in a parking lot. Chris

steering universal joint
Hey Tom, you're right on the money! Here's a link, looks pretty cool. Looks like you could cut the yokes off the stock shafts and add these cool chromed pieces. http://www.flaming-river.com/joint1.htm Chris

steering universal joint
I think he means the universal joint in the steering shaft from firewall to steering rack. Not ball joints. And to RobertH, I'm not sure of your solution. I have had some success with ujoints at a local place that does driveline service and works on agricultural driveshafts. Good luck. Chris
