  1. You dudes make Wisconsin seem Tropical, Only 20F here today will get below Zero pretty soon though Think I'll go swimming! I use cardboard when needed also.
  2. I just paid $330 for mine (ARB for WD21) Still in box; but may install it during the snow storm this weekend
  3. But WAYYYY worth it; easy to get to alot of places that only the tiniest hands use to get to before the lift. And cost is very minimal. I would recommend highly myself. (My steering shaft was an evil Co(ksucker though!)
  4. Found a pretty cool game I think If you guys wanted to we could get a gang started on there. Just check it out. It's a little hard to get used to it at first, but it's a lot of fun if you have a little down time at work or bored at home. http://www.4x4country.net/register.php?REF=7372 Don't forget to root for the Packers tonite, Roma is a local here but Green Bay is our team.

    AC UCAs

    Did you do a body lift yet? even cheaper from AC and those parts don't bend... If you need UCA's get rough country or if you have the extra dime get calmini... Okay a bit more than a dime but bulletproof
  6. Hummer (Military diesel) or a 350Z (supa-charged of course)
  7. More than likely you'll be running premium to stop the ping and rough running. A descent 240sx (rear wheel drive, good gas mileage, can mod heavily and runs on regular (until you start upgrading) just my 2 cents though. I got about 18 months before some "issues" drop off my record. Then I'm grabbin a Z again. The kits to swap steering are $$$ (but a Superfast AWD would be cool as HELL) 'till I was in jail for trying to break the sound barrier again. Reason I got a 4WD is I can't get in alot of trouble!-)
  8. As soon as my insurance goes down I'll be out to Colorado to pic one up Earth! Z's corner like nothing else I've driven (as long as you have good rubber on them) and don't get caught to many times speeding!-(
  9. Welcome to the Wonderful World of Toolin'! I have a 2 1/2 car garage with no room for cars. A bit overtooled, but happy! All I need is a good pipebender and a plasma cutter... (for Now) then a 4 car garage so the wife can park her car in it!
  10. Just get her a 300ZXTT $10K and you have a monster that has the steering wheel on the proper side. Insurance on either will be interesting.
  11. I found one new on E-bay for $845 (including shipping) Sounds almost 2 cheap? Figured if Wife is going to kill me it should be soon; snorkel, brakes; and a few other things showed up yesterday and I had no idea the snorkel came in a HUGE box. (I have the UPS dude hide my stuff behind the side porch) but the big box gave it away. If she goes in the garage I'm done for. Bumper and a winch and I can stop spending for a while. Is there a name for being addicted to upgrading your Pathy? Linkity to it Hope the link werks
  12. rather have the hula dancer on my dash (less wires)
  13. What kind of ditch weed were they comparing to anyhoo? Sh!tweed? Then again Ammonia & Bleach would give a good buzz until you died. Yuk
  14. Bigger tires, a lift and you would have used him like a speed bump. But seriously sorry to here that. Dowh...
  15. It took a bit to get mine; just e-mail him. I guarantee he isn't scamming though(IMHO), just a bit on the busy side more than likely. Mike
  16. Welcome to NPORA Tom, Nice to have another Nissan around "these here parts"
  17. Seafoam rocks! I use it in my ATV, Snowmobile, Pathfinder & both our cars. 1 can per full tank at least every 3 months (is what I do) Have never had an issue with using it; i run a full bottle thru my sled for the first ride of winter; if it were to foul plugs my sled would be the one to show it. Seafoam is the PB Blaster of gas tank additives IMHO (can't beat it) and it isn't snake oil; it really works Mike
  18. I'm curious if they have zerks also, I will let you know when I get them. If they don't have zerks I will put them in for sure as that has been the one complaint I have heard of Calmini products alot. lower control arm bushing tension/compression rod bushings front swaybar bushings moog lower ball joints (calmini includes uppers I believe) Moog inner and outer tie rod ends (trail spares) going to order this evening; if anyone has any other recommendations lemme have them. Will work on the rear bushings when I do my Locker/drum to disc conversion. Thanks! Mike
  19. I ordered the Calmini steering and 3" suspension (squeak) lift (minus the calmini shocks as I have Rancho 9000's) What other parts should I replace while I'm "replacing" my front end as this is the first time doing a steering project and a real front suspension. Are Moog balljoints a good choice or is there a better option? Sold my Z to finance the truck build & Calmini stuff will be here in like 10 days (I hope) but I just want to be sure I have any needed bushings as I can't get parts locally in Wisconsin as I don't drive a Jeep (we have more Jeeps than cows now) I would search but I am doing a damn server migration in the middle of Iowa right now (no manuals, no truck and hardly any time) Have to remote session to Wisconsin as they have no internet connection here; just vpn bs I had to get the Rancho in cab shock adjuster for the final touch of Japanese Luxury(Heat, AC, auto hubs, on board shock adjustment, anyone know where I can get a lazy boy truck seat commode with 4 point safety harness? ) I just have time over Turkey Day weekend and want to have everything on hand. Thanks again Guys (& gals) Mike :coffee!:
  20. trying to pic up a tree huggin Hippie chic?
  21. Crazy, sounds like a hemoroid but more costly
  22. Both my 95 XE & SE had them; looks much better with them. Wheel wells look 2 square without them, like a old cherokee chief :tonguefinger:
  23. fill your tires with helium to lighten the load (pretend I posted a picture of the tornado!)
  24. Nice job on the exhaust speedy, Diff smiley is a good addition!

    Ron Paul

    Don't forget the 3 billion we give to Israel to build in the Occupied Territories... Bush sure did a good job in controlling world population... But it's time to focus on Home now. Glad gas is approaching $4 and we are taxing the hell out of cigarettes (even though we pay for our own healthcare) Go Bush Go!!! To bad he can't run for a 3rd term and finish destroying the economy; maybe invade Mexico to stop the immigrant issue. (If we annex Mexico; they are no longer immigrants!)
