Welcome, got pics of the 240? what are your plans for it?

hey look, it's a blonde mike [drop top drifter] lol http://forums.importatlanta.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=19301&stc=1

[Dr.Tim]

I pick up the 240Z this weekend ( I will post some pics then) its in need of restoration...not sure what power plant to go with. But I <3 Nissan and since its a Carbed Inline 6 stock I may update it with Rb20,RB25 or a RB26 kinda weighing my options at this point. main goal is just to get it stripped primed and ready for its makeover :D

Your Z32 is sweet, what front bumper is that? (I had one for 4 years)

[Dr.Tim]

Its the greddy widemouth bumper (had it for while) I just ordered a JUN front bumper to have a different look for this show season. Alot of people are getting that greddy one now (and it does look good) just wanted to set my car apart from the 15billion modded Z's out there LOL (yeah right)

nO!!!! sr20det.. dont do a RB.. they have internal BOV and you have to upgrade the whole system.. to upgrade the BOV

[Dr.Tim]

Nah I have helped friends put SR20's in everything from a 240 to a Puegot lol thats probably what will end up in the 510 anyway. Im still researching the swaps to go with. but right now the PSHHHH sound is the leaste of my concerns. the more I research the RB's they drop in with little modification cause the car is already set up to hold a inline six. but we will see. got much more to do before that happens.:)

[Halfwit]

13b in teh 510!!!

[Dr.Tim]

Oh Noes...Im done with 13bs infact I got a pile of rotary stuff I haven been selling for $5 bucks a part just to get it outta my shop. besides after 3fast3drifterest comes out so many people are gonna start importing SR20's they will be common as KA's to source parts for =)

[Halfwit]

yeah, i hear ya.... im barely gonna drive after 3fast3fur. too scared a civic will "drift" into me.

wait casey you mean tray slide into you?? bwahaha lol:lmfao:

[Halfwit]

nah, but it will be funny to see the ricers "drift" in a 240 by using the e-brake!!

[speedminded]

nah, but it will be funny to see the ricers "drift" in a 240 by using the e-brake!!you think you don't use the e-brake to induce a drift? [...not just clutch kick and the other techniques]

[HiPSI]

it's easy as hell to make a blockoff plate for the stock RB valve ;).

[Halfwit]

you think you don't use the e-brake to induce a drift? [...not just clutch kick and the other techniques]

u must not have gotten it. i meant totally using the e-brake. doing a 180, then stopping, and calling it drift.

[speedminded]

Does it have Cobra R's on it?nope, not wide enough...i've seen the white cobra r's on a red z32 before...they stuck outside the fender over an inch without spacers.
