oh mate what a garage see how good money is you can do anything .

nah that was moffit in the vk i think they were saying. My friend has a Bathurst box set from the 50's - 90's great stuff on it. the R32's dominated w00t.
-
now i know why your so patriotic. -
on the contrary I think the 2000GT closely relates to the 240z and is not off topic. Thanks for the pics of a truely amazing automobile.

shame to see them like this really. -
-2 for bumper change and wheel arch's being rolled to accomodate wheels. -
yeah it does i was thinking the same thing till i read the below comments. Pretty funny -
Yes very aggressive I have grown to like these more and more. -
yes and the flutes in the inspection lid is a good idea for the Z not to mention "period correct" -
it's a bit of both really excellent car -
And great lines they are love it. -
I've spoken to you before about them and think what you've done looks nice I'm still not 100% on either of them. I am thinking I'll just put the stock hood back on and if I want ventilation I'll just graft them into some inspection lids. I await a few photos of your hood when you get time to see if it's worthwhile for me to venture down the same path. If you look in my gallery you can see i painted them black but I still can't get over the floor heater style.

Sounds to me you need to readjust your carbs. if anything when changes things like this over often they will need readjusting.

opportunity to be naughty with this one. Let's say I would mind her turning a head w00t -
do you have velocity stacks under those filters? if not I'd recommend going to the stock air box again. -
that's cool indeed very 70's love the stripes something different and the bre spoiler looks trick gotta get me one of those -
really nice car but this is just my opinion i think it would look even nicer with early 240z style bumpers on front and back. If you like the front then just the back would be 50% better. -
That's more like it pretty similar to the motor I'll be building.

hang on are you talking about teh alternator or the VR here?
-
Ok guys thanks for the advice yes I have an IR alternator but it will need a rebuild. So far i havent had a repeat of the problem i think it only happens after its been in traffic for a long time with stuff like the lights, stereo and heater on at the same time. I haven't confirmed this yet though. I haven't checked the alternator belt but it's a good idea last time I had a problem like this it was the belt getting too loose and causing the car to do all sorts of stuff.
-
hope it didn't go to the wreckers -
Did you see the video's cool stuff
-
The VR in their atm is not the original one anyway. I have a ZX internally regulated Alternator also that I've been considering but until the car starts causing some more headaches I'm not sure.
-
Ok that sounds like a good idea. It's only really started doing it recently I guess it could be a few things but strange it fixes itself up. To me that could be as you say the vr getting stuck or making poor contact I'll give it a try and see how it goes. With your situation anything over 12V should be fine but if your battery is always flat it could be the actual battery or the alternator not sure if you've checked those.

Cool I'll look into these they might just be the solution I'm after !
