If there was a better word for amazing, I'd use it. It's kicking my dad's butt mechanical wise. But all and all it's beautiful and should be on the raod soon so I can drive it to Carlilse this year.

nice ride, is it a 300ZX?

haha thanks... it's got a lot in it... but all stock. I just posted some pics of it if you want to check it out.

Nice car!

I love your new picture!

Thats awesome,. love the wheels too.  They really jump out off the black.  Why such low torqe though??

Uhh heads basically, after i wrecked it i was like ahh what the hell, went out did an intake bigger throttle-body accel wires, NGK plugs, shortie hedmans, and thas whwere the exhaust ends, LOUD, lol, u got the 300zx

Nope, I do have a Ford though, a HO Ford Explorer, makin round 300 hp

Haha, man I just got the car in Oct 07. Still paying for the car so no mods as of yet! Though things I have to fix already, my front bumber got dislodged one time when I got stuck in the snow. So it threatens to fall off regularly.

Thanks for comment! ^__^

thanks man,. I wish it was an R32, lol if I had an extra 10k lying around I would have sprung for it but.  Your engine looks beastly! What does put down??

Yea thats not good when all that stuff breaks. In the future I am looking to build an S2000. they look awesome and are very well balanced. I would really like to do an STI or WRX if the money is there. If not probably something cheaper like an Integra.

Wow that is interesting! i had no idea that chevy would use the same part as nissan, especially something so complex as a trans. I'm surprised that your honda was too expensive to repair. My dad had a 82 accord that he got rid of in 2004 but still ran real strong.

When I am done with school I want to do the same thing. Build a car that will be fast and all. That sounds like a really good idea to do with your Z. That will be mean as hell when you transfer the engine haha.

haha yea it is a good thing, but damn i hope thats not your daily driver and you have to deal with that mileage. it looks sick though. turbo in the future hopefully?

I drive a Saturn right now, I have no money being a poor college student to afford a car that makes any kind of power. It's good though with the gas as high as it is. Is your Z a twin turbo?

oh yeah...that's one of those "hiding in plain sight" things..
I would have caught it eventually..

I also have to choose if I'm gonna get an engine swap (2.5L 16v has performance parts from AMG on the market...so I'm interested lol)
also...I like the sound of Turbo Charging....but I'm not sure if that would go well with the quiet VIP High-Roller look...I've got time to think about it though lol

hell yeah man!!!  Where you located?!  We'll have to cruize sometime...

Well, the plan right now is too get it running perfectly (it's been sitting since August..can't be healthy) So I'm gonna start out like this;
-Battery
-Air Filter
-New Fuses
-New windshield wiper
-A new exhaust system (expensive part  but its a Benz)
-New shocks (front passenger, and rear driver are blown )
-Replace wood-grain ("wood-grain" is peeling? Didn't know wood could peel, but appearently it's some cheap stuff lol)
-Get an actual radio going
-New Paint
-Window Tint
-Rims+Tires
-Re-apolster the interior
-Then raid the engine bay with cash

Yeah, right now I'm debating whether or not I want to just restore it to OE and just keep it fresh, becuase it's about to hit the "classic" mark (4 years )
But then I'd also like to make it into a VIP dd.
both would be sweet as hell, but the VIP dd would make more of a personalized car, and could last me a long time (seeing as it's a benz, and I would be getting an eventual engine swap for it...not sure what engine yet either)
and the body has zero rust on it, that I can find, and I've looked pretty extensively...the hood paint is peeling slightly, but I'm getting it painted black (currently silver..pain in the arse) so that shouldn't be a problem.  So, with Benz engineering (especially the Baby-Benz) this car could last me until they outlaw gasoline engines lol
