Default Big thanks + jeep + my summer ride!

whats up CF?
Ive been here for about a year now (only active towards the winter months as my XJ is a fall, winter and spring rat) and i just want to say thanks to everyone on this great site. Ive been on many forums through my years of motor vehicles and this site by far is my favorite. You couldnt find a better site with nicer, more knowledgable people. Most sites have rude memebers that are A-holes to new comers and people that arent familiar with the XJ, but not here. Everyone is helping out the fellow jeeper. So, on that note... THANKS FOR A GREAT SITE!!!!

This is what im occupied with during my summer months now. Picked up this gem with a blown clutch for dirt cheap.

1991 Nissan 300zx - N/A V6
5 speed, headers, and catback. newer 350z wheels. Its fun as hell.

And heres a pic of my jeep, since then ive put spacers on the back so it looks more acceptable. This was after i bedlined the lower half. So stoked with how it came out. Its a ***** to wash tho :/ still worth it.

nooooo. Just my opinion, V8s in Z cars make me sick. A well done LS swap would still be pretty cool. One I looked at locally just turned me off the v8 swap idea because it a booty fabbed TBI 350 swap in an otherwise very nice Z32.

Talking about how it looks like it's squatting in the rear. Might just be the trimmed fenders in the front though.

I see now, it doesnt squat as bad as it looks there. the bedliner kinda makes the front look like they are really trimmed... which they are.. but i have trimmed the back fenders too. ill work on more pics for you.

yea im sure there are some rickshaw jobs out there. I think thats my only way to go however. I cant figure out/ havent spent too much time figuring out whats wrong with the engine. Running rich, strange idle, lil opil buring. And the tranny seems to be losing 4th gear. I would love to do a tt swap, but a LS1 sounds more fun. Plus with the LS id get rid of my tranny issue.... there are a few good videos of boosted LS1's in these z32's and its crazy.
