1993 Z32 NA Rebuild
Ok so I am new to this forum, live in the Atlanta area, and am about to embark on my first Z32 NA Rebuild. At least I am hoping that a rebuild will be possible, as I am suffering from failing hydraulic lifters. The audible problem has only arisen recently, Id say about 50 miles or less have been driven since the audible knock surfaced. I am hoping this was not enough to cause irepairable damage to the block. Any suggestions? I will post pics and such as they become available. Money is tight so I may be doing this in small increments. It isnt depended on for driving at the moment so I can take my time in getting it back up. My first feat is going to be getting this engine pulled. I have read through a good post here, by Clint, and am also familiar with the TTZ of Dallas guide, which I will make use of. I suppose the purpose of this post is to announce the project, and collect any useful information from anyone willing to share. My plan is to replace as much as I can, and get the block and heads machined, and while I am at it I want to drop a 5 speed in, she has been whining about the automatic for some time, so she deserves a 5 speed. Any advice or feedback is much appreciated!

not only that, but why in the hell would anyone go through the effort of building an N/A 300Z?

Why are you on a Tampa based forum then? I mean I don't run out and join 240sx's of West Virginia or something like that... Just seems kinda weird. But whatever I guess. Good luck w/ your build.
Besides, have you ever been on Import Atlanta? What a giant shit hole. |

And TR's not? I mean don't get me wrong, it's entertaining, but I can't say that I ever come on here expecting anything serious to be happening.
And sorry Tim, I'll go finish my registration :lol: Import Atlanta is, well, think about Zilvia if you took away all the tech/builds/info that Vendors generate, then centered it in the middle of GA. TR is a brain trust on top of a think tank compared to that place. |
Zilvia has pictures of cars with the same wheels, with quarter panels stretched to tomorrow and owned by kids that live at home
