Nice car, looks in good condition too. The bigger wheels and tyres really make a difference.

Here is my Turbo...I took my Brother-in-law for a ride in it tonight and let him feel 10psi. He liked it so I showed him how I do burnouts at 6,000 rpm. As you can see I removed the front bumper....the turn signals are pissed at me now but I have a plan for the front end of this car...more to come.....

Got to find a machine shop around the 757

What up Bro,

Yeah since you moved, I have been the lone ZX here in the 757. I will take some updated pics soon. I have the motor broken all the way down but I need to find a machine shop that is familiar with the nissan L motor.
If money goes well and my assembling the motor goes well possibly winter of 08.

the last guy who had it had cracked the air damn pretty bad. and when i first got it, i wasn't used to driving it, and totally curled it when i pulled too far forward in the parking spot. So i fixed it. and i actually like the way it looks. the yellow BMW belongs to a guy name Paz here in the dorms. he actually helps me out with the 280 when he can. Hes my hand-me-the-14mm guy. he isn't too car literate but he likes to help out.

here is my 280zx it's a jdm import from japan so has a p75 manifold rather the standard p72 i think it was. extractors, exhaust, 5 speed, targa top, 14' rays engineering lightweigh racing rims, removed ac and modified bumpers for weight reduction, cruise control(still trying to fix) and the lovely cream/brown interior :P

picked it up for a lazy $2,000AU with about half a car worth of spare parts. slowly scouring for parts on ebay and locally. have replaced the interior panles that were faded except for 2, got a new rear seat, full sized spare, and air filter. Waiting on new headlight and new headlight covers. the plugs on the diff and tranny are both seized so its going in the shop this week for them to try replace the oils as i dont have enough leverage on car stands. from there i'l bung some 98RON pump fuel in it and take it down to a dyno then the local drag strip opens for the new season next month so will give it a burn down there. "apparantly" and i stress that, it does a 15flat. not bad for a 30y.o n/a motor. can't wait till summer, targa tops and a mega phone down the coastal strip is going to be so much fun
