I'd prefer a pretty Georgia peach over a "frigid" bird anyday.....:nervous: :cheeky:

OK, worked that time.......:stupid: I think you had the link wrong the first time...... :devious:

Shouldn't this be in the Funnybone forum?

uh, server error, unrecoverable error is what I got.....

They don't need to be smooth on the inner control arm mount as the clamps will provide an interference fit and hold the outside of the bushings quite firmly. If you look when you remove the control arm at the original bushings you will notice they are formed to the shape of the mounts and clamps. The control arms will pivot on the inner part of the bushing with no trouble. Actually, if the outer mount were to not hold the bushings, they would surely chew themselves to piece on the mount. The large bolt that goes into the end of the control arm serves to expand the bushing so it will then be a friction fit inside the mount. Don't worry about putting POR-15 inside the mount, it won't hurt a thing.

Not sure what size the 74 had, but it's probably about 7/8 inch or whatever that is in MM..... If you go to a too large bar in the front it will not only affect handling but also the ride as well. It's usually best to change both the front and rear when upgrading, but, if you change one and not the other you can sometimes improve the handling characteristics of the car which tends to push the front end (understeer) so the best thing to do would be to see what sizes are available first, then decide on how you want it to handle. If you go to large on either or both ends, it will affect the handling considerably, as well as the ride comfort. Usually it's best to take the "middle of the road" when choosing a bar size unless you plan on taking the car to the track quite a bit.

Ladies vs Real Woman > Ladies - If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it's still cooking,drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant "fix-me-up." > Real Woman - If you over-salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too damn bad. Please recite with me, The Real Women's motto: "I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes." **************************************************** Ladies - Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away. Real Woman - Take a lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink. You might still have the headache, but who cares? **************************************************** Ladies - Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips. Real Woman - Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete's sake. You are probably lying on the couch, with your feet up, eating it anyway. **************************************************** Ladies - To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes. Real Woman - Buy boxed mashed potato mix and keep it in the pantry for up to a year. **************************************************** Ladies - When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the inside of the cake. Real Woman - Go to the bakery - they'll even decorate it for you. **************************************** Ladies - Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish. Real Woman - Sara Lee frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust, so I just don't do it. *************************************************** Ladies - If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non slip grip that makes opening jars easy. Real Woman - Go ask the very cute neighbor guy to do it. **************************************************** And finally the most important tip.... Ladies - Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces. Real Woman - Leftover wine?? **************************************************** A good friend will come and bail you out of jail...but, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Damn...that was fun!"

This is pretty funny and has more truth than some of us are willing to admit..... Possibly the best chicken joke ever! On the farm lived a chicken and a horse, both of whom loved to playtogether. One day, the two were playing when the horse fell into a bog and began to sink. Scared for his life, the horse whinnied for the chicken to go get the farmer for help! Off the chicken ran, back to the farm. Arriving at the farm, he searched and searched for the farmer, but to no avail,for he had gone to town with the only tractor. Running around, the chicken spied the farmer's new Z-3 series BMW. Finding the keys inside, the chicken sped off with a length of rope, hoping he still had time to save his friend's life. Back at the bog, the horse was surprised, but happy, to see the chickenarrive in the shiny BMW, and he managed to get a hold of the loop of rope the chicken tossed to him. After tying the other end to the rear bumper of the farmer's car, the chicken then drove slowly forward and, with the aid of the powerful car, rescued the horse! Happy and proud, the chicken drove the BMW back to the farmhouse, and the farmer was none the wiser when he returned. The friendship between the two animals was cemented: best buddies, best pals. A few weeks later, the chicken fell into a mud pit, and soon, he too, began to sink and cried out to the horse to save his life! The horse thought a moment, walked over, and straddled the large puddle.Looking underneath, he told the chicken to grab his "thing" and he would then lift him out of the pit. The chicken got a good grip, and the horse pulled him up and out, saving his life. The moral of the story? When you're hung like a horse, you don't need a BMW to pick up chicks.

Yes, there is a forum for posting threads relating to, or discussing cars seen on Ebay. There is also a links section where anyone can post a link to a company or site that sells Z parts, or any Z related parts,services or what have you.

Money?:classic: I take PayPal or personal checks..... Seriously though, glad it worked out to be just trapped air....guess it could have been worse....

The white car needs some work, but the green car looks to be in good condition with only minor cosmetic items that need attention, and it has a reasonable Buy It Now price to boot. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2423299126&category=6187 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2423468090&category=6187

Gav, I wouldn't worry about it until one of three things starts to happen. 1. Smoke at start up gets to be excessive or annoying. 2. Leakdown or compression test shows weak compression in the cylinder or possible problems with the valve or seat themselves. 3. Oil consumption suddenly increases Or, until you find you have to remove the head for any other reason.

Only reason I mentioned the wheels is because he states it is a concourse restoration.. well, not in my book it isn't... a concourse restoration would be all original.

Might be worth it if it were restored to original condition... hard to tell with the few pics that are shown... definately would have to get rid of those wheels and put a set of originals on with perfect wheel covers, then it would be worth a second look.

I'm not worried about her losing her hair, it's mine I'm worrying about...... I think I just figured out why "ricers" act the way they do... they drink that beer that looks like it comes in a specimen bottle.....:sick: :sick: :sick: :cross-eye

If it's not all scratched up... you might want to keep it if you have room... never know, you might end up needing it someday....

If you plan on using the stock 3:36 rear, you'd probably be better off with the 78 trans as it won't have as high an overdrive as the ZX 5 speed does.... I've got a thread in the tech articles with the gear ratios so you can do the math and decide for yourself.... unless you want to look for an "A" model 4 speed to put it back to original... I've got a couple if you decide to go that way...:devious:

Pretty good until I got to number 30 and 31....:disappoin And I guess it's time to go to the drugstore so girls won't be kissing my head in the future...

I think it deserves to be on the Main Page myself...... Gotta love it.........

Just checking to see if you were paying attention.... Actually I deleted my first sentence and forgot to delete the even ... my bad.....:stupid: If first put, for SCCA sanctioned events and even NASA and most other sanctioning bodies require a certain size minimum according to your cars weight..... So, you'll have to determine what you will be running as far as which sanctioning body you'll run with the most, then determine your cars minimum weight and go with whatever diameter/thickness they require. As the diameter goes up, the wall thickness usually goes down incrementally with the change in diameter.. That better?:beard:

I've heard of Portuguese Water Dogs.. didn't know there was a Spanish one too..... Dogs that size sleep most anywhere they want to don't they? Kinda take a lot of room up in a Z wouldn't it? Or is that why you have a 2+2? :surprised

I think it's more like I am hers..... or at least she thinks so....

Nothing wrong with this one at all... you can see girls under 18 with less on at the local pool nowadays.... Besides, wouldn't we all like to have a pic taken of our cars surrounded by the Hawaiin Tropic girls? Or Hooters girls? I know I would....

Well, since that is a photo of you, I guess we can't hold it against you that you moderate on another forum and have more Z-31's than early Z's...:devious: Just be ready for plenty of marriage proposals.... hard to find an attractive female that even likes cars, let alone Z's...:classic: We might even try to convert you into an early Z only kind of girl.... BTW, before you ask, no, that's not me in my avatar.... I'm not that cute....:mad: :cross-eye

Could also be a product of a somewhat weak spark too.... In any engine there is going to be some oil getting into the combustion chambers to a certain degree... the point is to burn it completely and exhaust what is left after combustion....
