Future Plans:
rebuild engine or jdm motor, greddy evo2 exhaust, z1 sidemount intercoolers, z1 or jwt ecu, and much much more

Here's the pics:

you think its safe to lightly spray your motor w/ a hose + cleaner? I used to do it to my 240sx and it never screwed it up, but this Z has at least twice as much crap making it run, and a lot more electrical...anyone think its safe?

It's hard to tell, but is that a TT front lip? I hope so. It kinda looks like an NA front from the pic. Nice Z. How do you like the Z1 intercoolers?

I've done it before but then drove the car immediately afterwards so that it's less likely to get standing puddles of water in remote areas of the engine such as under the plenum, etc.

yea that's a TT lip. it does look like NA from the pic. i was so close to the car in taking the pic because it was in the garage. i plan on getting the GTZ lip. Z1 intercoolers are one of my future mods. i hope lol

also i have to replace the shifter bushing on the Z. it's kind of loose when in gear. has a bout 1/2" to 1" in freeplay. i hope it's an ez task.

Alright, cool, I'll have to give it a try. BTW Mark, I agree, those rims are very tasteful, I think they really look good.
