Hi Guys, As you know, I was gutted that for whatever reason, I realised that without a lot more money and heartache, my V8 project would never see the light of day. There were only a couple of options : 1) Carry on with the V8 project and accept that I was destined to continually shell out...

Hi Guys, After 3 1/2 years, £35,000 and more headache and heartache than you can shake a stick at, I have decided to can my V8 project. BIG personal blow, feels like failure but hey ho ...... Everything to do with my project has involved custom engineering and serious amounts of...

]Hi Guys, I have two, possibly three spaces available in a workshop to store cars over the winter if anyone is interested ? Deadlocked steel door, concrete floor, totally waterproof and bone dry - up and over roller shutter goes innto a channel in the concrete for extra security - the unit...

I will probably get shot down in flames for heresy and I may get asked "why the f*** would you want to do that anyway ?" but I just wondered.......... With a V8 you get the "pockata pockata pockata" sound ...... if you made a manifold for a straight six so that each successive cylinder that...

Guys, I have ended up with a pile of "The History Of The Nissan Z" DVDs which I can sell at £3.50 each plus £1.50 postage and packing. The blurb says : In the autumn of 1969, the Italians, Germans, British and Americans cars that satisfied nearly every customer’s need – from dependable...

Guys, here is a link to episode 8 which is in Japanese .... http://www.veoh.com/videos/v1349648jGk64rTQ The blue "Devil Z" does not feature much in this episode because it has been smashed up but it gives you an idea :-) If you register with VeohTV ALL 10 Wangan Midnight episodes are...

For anyone who doubts the ability of Prince and subsequently Nissan / Prince to build a glorius engine in the mid sixties, just look at this and listen to the engine (2.0 straight six). Absolutely glorius sound.... I also love the look of pride on Sakurai san's face..... maybe a little old man...

C'mon, Who is it ? :D We need to talk about body shape as we are going down the same route, could be an opportunity to collaborate and make life easier (and cheaper). I hear you have asked for the same stuff from the same place ............ but no names were given, just 280ZX Twin Turbo...

Hi Guys, My life has not got enough space to run another company so Samuri Conversions Ltd has been dissolved and is available for purchase via Companies House. It will probably set you back between 100 and 200 pounds if anyone is interested in resurrecting a legend. Saves me painting my V8...

Over the next couple of days I will be putting up a lot of adverts for NOS parts I have collected for my V8 project - a lot of them are duplicates that I no longer need, a lot of them were for insurance in case of an accident. Most of these parts are literally irreplaceable so I will not be...

Forgive me for starting another thread, I cannot find the one where the guy wanted to build a pickup out of a 300ZX........ Thought this might be of interest : http://www.imagestation.com/album/slideshow.html?id=2094101957 Unfortunately you have to start at the beginning of the...

Hi Steve, can you please drop me a PM - I do not know your forum name so am unable to contact you. Can anyone please put me in touch ??? Many Thanks Andy

Before anyone asks, no this is categorigally not something I am thinking about doing but I wondered if anyone has ever delved into the idea of building a space framed S30 with a fibreglass shell like a dragster would have ??

Hi Guys, At a barbecue recently I was chatting to a friend of mine and asked "so what exactly do you do then ?" and it turns out he is involved in reverse engineering components, producing drawings and having them made out of billet aluminium. You will not be surprised to hear that my...
