for only $75,000, you can have a race prepped 350Z. 450hp 3.6L V6. roll cage, heavy duty breaks, carbon fiber wing, 2420 pounds. this is all done by nissan by the way &nbsp;<img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/inlove.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':love:'>

im hoping someone backs this car in IMSA competition. I'd love to see the GT3-R have someone to race against, besides itself. (well, if i can't have the ///M3 GTR back, i guess the Z is the next best thing.) I hope NNA and NML can sort this crap out and get some Z's on the starting grid next year in ALMS...

Wow, saw my first Z today, and it is very beautiful, got a good night shot of the car, beautiful <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/inlove.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':love:'> . I was turning and slowed down a lot and was staring, and the guy driving gave me a thumbs up <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'> .

I have someone at my school that owns a nice sliver 350Z. &nbsp; That car is really nice and I love the exhaust note the car makes. &nbsp;I had no idea that Rays Engineering made the rims for the Z......I wonder how much they weigh.

Next time I see the guy I will ask him for a ride. &nbsp;<img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

anyone got anymore stats on that.. just going by the outwards appearance, 75k doesn't look like that much.. I feel slightly dumb asking, but does anyone know why the lights are yellow, I see the Porchse in the american lemans series with similar yellow housing. Also does anyone here kart, or all SCCA stuff?

--I know most of you saw my Camaro thread.. well I saw a s14a today, black with tinted windows, and black rims.... similar to Phatty200s.. man I want one, Im torn right now..

yeah its fuel.. fuel goes in one side, the other is for vacuum, the vacuum prevents it from overfilling... I knew why at one point, a few hours ago, but my brilliance is waining in these early hours of the morning.

fueling probes usually have an integrated vent for a catch can; that's what the second hole is for.

2-port dry-break. One hole for fuel, the other to vent the air so the fuel flows faster. You know a container "glugs" when you pour it out completely upside down? That's what it prevents. Air has to get into the space where the fuel used to be in the fueling system. It also has to get out of the space that the fuel is filling up in the tank. Doesn't really have anything to do with overfilling or spillage. The design of the dry-break only opens when fully mated and seals everything off when disconnected.
