Sounds good I have a mechanic friend who teaches me everything and gets me trade prices on everything too it's great. We have been doing the valve stem seals for the last day or so and I've cut my hands so many times .. Next time I'll take the engine head out.

Good thread indeed. I haven't added all mine up but I'm sure I'm near the $12,000 mark between buying and the work I've done so far. The motor I'm building is probably gonna end up costing about $4500 on it's own and I won't get to touch the carbs yet or the gearbox. One day I'll add everything together and faint but I prepared myself to go to $35,000 on this car a long time ago

Z should be top 20 at least

Hi I noticed your running dished pistons, you'd probably be better off with the flat tops instead while you have the motor out and almost ready. I'd considering putting flat tops in as obviously you'll get higher compression and more power and it will also help with bottom end torque. I'm assuming that the STAGE3 camshaft is a rather wild combination as you haven't really stated what specs it is. You can counter the lack of low end torque by setting the cam timing using the cam gear numbers there should be a 1,2,3 and depending how your car is set up you have those options. From the looks of everything else you've done or been doing it would be a shame to go with dished pistons if you ask me. Nice work btw looks like your doing things properly .

I saw his website at some stage and the process he went through with the car. All i can really say is I know why he's selling it .

Yep agreed Z Kid infact I was gonna say that but didn't want to wizz off the owner looks like a bit of a ordinary car. He was running huge spacers with the flash wheels he had to me that says about how much he knows about doing things right.

yeah i want a new background too Alfa

thanks Gee I tried to type in www.allzparts.com last night and it didn't work then i tried in google but they obviously haven't sorted out there search meta tags and the such so i couldn't find it. That was what i was referring to. Cheers, Gav

Of course it could be done. You could simply choose an option box and your image that you are uploading is protected(as much as the protection can protect). However I think the problem with that is that it would involve heavy coding and long hours of research and study. I don't think MIke really wants to do this to be honest but I'm not Mike so I better not talk on his behalf.

Hey Tommo you can try looking on Ebay I saw 4 of those centre caps advertised recently they may pop up again. You can try asking anyone on the VicZcar website site link is in my sig. Headlight covers someone in Sydney does them forgot the contact the contact information but again check VicZcar I've listed a few places that you might be able to find info from. Good luck

So this is the car that comes with the LD28 although it was probably more the 910 than 810 am I correct? I was always wondering what they looked like

last time i got them $80 a side for tie rods. They were genuine though. I think you can get them at Rare spares also but I don't think they are as good quality but that's just my opinion.

haha stop stressing over resources will I used to be like that then i gave in for some character my last screen saver was real nice here ya go.

Here is my wallpaper at the moment but I'm a bit sick of it might change it to a screen saver type one you guys are talking about.

yeah i noticed Luke welcome aboard. The club isn't even officially registered yet but we will be dealing with that in a short time. Good luck with the pulley.

Hmmm I might have 1 here but it's the 3 pulley type from a ZX so you can have air conditioning, power steering and alternator but they have the extra rotational mass and I replaced mine with a 240z one when i got the lighter flywheel.

PS couldn't find any images in your gallery.

The webers alone would cost me more than that. So i think your doing ok.

Keep us tuned Chris
