I just love it. I have thought of parking directly infront of one and pretending I didn't know what was going on. I don't think they could do anything except move because there not even police officers there contractors .

This is the original I didn't like the orange.

yeah i know i've done it before but i think what Axelr8 did was a ltitle better than my attempts. Here is an example.

That's a very good point but unfortunately in Australia we can't get a 280zx Turbo from a junk yard. Although turbo is a tempting idea. I must say. However you can reach nearly 300HP with the stock SU's so we will see when the time comes.

Yes well i've never used 7 have you used 6 before? I can get alright results but they just looked much more impressive.

indeed i define a ricer by someone who's basically all show no go. It would be a bit hypocritical to say that japanese cars are crap when we all adore and drive one.

Wow what program are you using to do that? I've been using Adobe photoshop 6 but nothing ever looks that good.

I can completely understand the point your getting at Alfadog. It's not like i hate these people who do these things to their car I just like making a bit of fun of them. I'm not old only 21 so there's no what my parents did i'm doing now. Rather i'm more or less sick of seeing a lancer coupe with boring mag wheels and alteza lights on it. With a windscreen sticker , Yes maybe i do feel i'm superior in my Z but who here can deny they haven't? Look these guys obviously do have the money and work hard but money can't buy everything and 1 thing is obvious everytime i open the magazine HOT4's is that money don't buy taste . So maybe i am a little harsh and maybe I should be a little more tolerant afterall I don't know everything and maybe sometimes I think i do. However I do try not to be stereotypical and as Rusty was saying about the guy with the carbon fibre bonnet. I guess it's more a case of what floats your boat and ricers don't float my boat. I love it when i see a mustang in mint condition or any other muscle car of the day as usually they don't have the fart cans or huge jet fighter rear wings.

Ahh Hello new member thanks for the offer but i took care of the clutch 2months or so ago. I ended up going with A PBR RPM clutch with hardened teeth and heavy duty clutch plate. I also installed a lighter flywheel and have been fairly happy with the current set up. Once again thanks.

Rusty you should upload pics of this beast can't wait to see it. Sounds really mean does your shift light make you look like a circus when it lights up at night. I think those ricers look like a bunch of clowns at night .

This is just a general question about our engines and possibly applies across the board. I am wondering though why the intake valves and ports are so much smaller than the exhaust ones? It seems to me that whatever goes in must come out so why does so much more air come out than in? Is this the case? I was just looking at some of the new uploaded pics and it's always puzzled me that to make power in an engine it's the quicker you get it in and out that makes most of the difference. Can anyone explain this to me?:cheeky:

What I was trying to say earlier in the post .

I could almost apply all to myself don't feel bad even if I've never had 32 Z cars if I had the money I probably would have.

Best ZX content on this site so far

yeah AUD but yeah a LSD seems like a much better option even if the car only see's the road and not the race track.

It's the 4.4 ratio that I really want from it. From some videos of cars I've seen trying to corner at high speed with a locker they just understeer and end up locking up there brakes. I was told parking in a Z with a Locker isn't so bad for some reason but yeah I've always wanted the LSD anyway so it would be the way I do go. Not sure we will see the main reason I was gonna buy it was the price. $250 or so and to me that was pretty cheap for a normal diff. :classic:

I think if you want options you should be looking through this sites gallery there are some awesome Z's hiding in there. Try my gallery for a start . It's funny i used to like whale tails. The other day though i saw a 240z with one here in Melb YUKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!! looked like a 80's Rx7 with one of those crappy body kits icke. :sick: Incidently my 240z has the front bumper but no rear one. I think it looks tuff without the rear bumper but I have been thinking of putting it back on lately when i can afford to rechrome it. Yes I'm with Alfa chrome everywhere blacked out is for ricers(no offence anyone ). I think the best thing with the bumpers is to have them just the single piece without overiders and possibly even all holes filled and no rubber protectors but then again they can look ok aswell.

From my limited knowledge this is what I had thought. The 4.4 ring gear would certainly make it rocket and maybe I'll put the locker in there while I save the money to make her a LSD . :classic:
