You cannot win a Lemons race in a Datsun/Nissan Z car.
Will a Datsun pickup fit within the scope of this? You referenced car specifically but I wanted to double check. Thanks

Z -- dude, a datsun/nissan Z
for those that lack the reading comp skillz to figure this out
Lemons will never be won by a
240Z
260Z
280Z
280ZX
300ZX*
*one day a Z32 will show up -- that's a different story.
My apologies I read it as Datsun...or...Nissan Z
300ZX*
*one day a Z32 will show up -- that's a different story.
We've talked about that. I swear they gots electronic gremlins to rival a BMW.
They are getting cheap enough but they are pretty tore up.

It will happen.
It will not be pleasant for the team that tries.
Unless... they bring one of the very rare roadsters! You know, the bread-basket looking ZX that cost $44,000 in the mid-90s.
Hee hee hee
We'd let that slide.
Z31 FTW. If Team Underground doesn't do it we are gonna start to wrenching major. I'm gonna drive our car around daily to work and shit and see what happens around town to test it's durability even more. If it blows up 302 Ford is on the way.

I think I could actually make that happen as there is a crappy one sitting at the upholstery shop next door. The convertible top frame is garbage so the car lot that sent it over has basically abandoned it there. It would mean not bringing the Z600 though...I'm torn.
What if we're using a Z31 engine in another chassis that is *gasp* worse than a z31?
I think you know what I'm thinking

How about a VG30 in a Spitfire? What could possibly go wrong?

ALRIGHT SO I HAVE A 300 ZX IT'S A 2 SEATER, TE-TOPS, BLACK ON BLACK, IT HAS A BRAND NEW CLUTCH, BRAND NEW SLAVE CYLINDER, AN CLUTCH CYLINDER. THE HEADS HAVE BEEN RE-DONE $150 BUCKS EACH.. POWER WINDOWS, POWER LOCKS, A/C&HEATER WORK GREAT .....NOW....THE ONLY REASON I AM SELLING IT IS BECAUSE I RAN OUT OF FUNDS TO COUNTINUE FIXING THE CAR... I HAVE ALL THE PARTS TO THIS CAR... IT'S SO CHEAP BECAUSE I NEED THE CAR TO BE REMOVED FROM THE LOCATION IT'S AT I RAN OUT OF TIME AN NEED IT TO BE GONE ASAP. NOW ON THE OTHER HAND I HAVE THE TITLE SO IF YOU ARE INTERESTED PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL AT 210-xxx-xxxx JAKE
ON THE PLUS SIDE IF YOU PERCHACE THIS CAR ALL YOU NEED IS $100 MORE TO HAVE IT RUNNING IF YOU ARE A MECHANIC.... BECAUSE THAT WILL COVER THE GASKETS AN OIL. SO BASICLLY ALL IT IS A SLAP ON DEAL....
No Troy -- that's a hard top (even with the T's). We'll bust your ass through the ceiling for a hard top
But a Roadster/Convertible? Bring it.
A hard top is a sawzall away from a convertible.
Someone could sell off the T-tops for the necessary gaskets to fix the car.

Yeah we sold our TTOPS off our car for around 150 if I remember correctly and the rest of the interior for like 300+
An MR2 will win it one day.
REALLY?

At the 2032 Thunderhill, an MR2 is due
damn... 10 years ago I used one of those websites that asks you questions and then tells you when you will die. I still have it hanging in my office. It stated 2032. Could there be a relationship there? 
I win and then die from the excitement?
Or you could die crossing the finish line as the engine shoots parts through the firewall, the world implodes or whatever.
I have to admit.....this "offer" is quite tempting....
I need to make some phone calls...

Z? Never.
SHO... someone needs to drop the SHO's Yamaha dream engine into a ZX.
All problems solved -- get wrenching.
I have a complete spare SHO engine, 130K on it. Just fab up some motor mounts and a bellhousing adapter. What could possibly go wrong?

That would create an unreliability black hole that would consume the entire universe. I say do it!

Like this one...hehehe
Perfect!
I've got a Z car, and this challenge is nigh on too great to resist.. I'm thinking 4age(mr2) powered Z. What could possibly go wrong?

Ask Trekkor about our feelings concerning cars with Evil Genius Stickers stuck to them
