This guy obviously registered on here just to do this in this cowardly manner. I likely know him, though I have no idea who he is. Is there no way to have this removed? I welcome everyone's opinion on here, but this guy literally has only made this post. Sound reasonable? If so, who do I ask? VS Chuck?

Don't sweat him bro, he's clearly a coward and it's evident to everyone. The bomb he tried to drop is closer to a ladyfinger.

Thanks man.
The Z will be at the Smoky Mountain Z Car Show tomorrow morning at European Auto Garage in Knoxville, TN. I hope to see some of you there! I know it's late notice, but maybe one or two of you live nearby and are looking for something cool and car-related to do on a Saturday morning.

Amazing Car! Clearly the value of what you are getting far exceeds the investment. This looks to be one of those amazing cars that has to be appreciated as unique piece of art, or should I say highly functional art!
GLWS!

Beautiful car, great to hear of people listening to God and responding to His call. Congratulations on your commitment to intensive training and then moving full on back to YWAM outreach. It will be interesting to follow what He does regarding this car. Incredible build of a 240Z. Incredible.

just a thought, but have you thought about asking Rich if you can put your 240 in the "cars for sale" section on the EAG website? i asked if i could put mine on there a min ago. i cant put it on here cuz ive not been a member for a month yet (rules are rules) but i think more people that actually saw your car at the garage will see it there than here..... and i know some of those people want it. now wether they can afford it or not........ you dont know anyone lookin for an 8 do ya? lol

The only thing more noble than building a great car and keeping the local tuners working is selling it to go do God's work.
Hats off to you my friend.

Thanks Cleve!
Guys, I'm flexible on the price. I had to put something on it. So hard to put a price on something one of a kind.
I declined some offers in the beginning, but now think I shouldn't have been such a "brick wall" about them. So, bring your thoughts to me and we'll see where we go.
Thanks!

Thought I would go ahead and give a build spec sheet on this. I'll put all the stuff down here in text, plus attach an image that I made showing it all.
Engine & Drivetrain Mods:
002 Nissan Sylvia S15 engine, built by National Speed (nationalspeedinc.com). Build includes: Mahle PowerPak 4032 Pistons - 86mm bore : 8.5:1 CR, Eagle H-Beam Rods, ARP Rod Bolts, ACL "Race" Rod & Main Bearings, ARP Main Studs, ARP Cylinder Head Studs, Cometic Cylinder Head Gasket, Brian Crower Valve Springs, Brian Crower Titanium Retainers, Brian Crower264/264 Camshafts, Tomei Rocker Arm Stoppers, Greddy Short Runner Intake Manifold, Ported and rebladed Throttle Body, McKinney Motorsports Aluminum Radiator, 3250cfm Fan with McKinney Shroud, National Speed Aluminum Coil Cover, National Speed Crankcase Breather System, National Speed Valve Cover Breather System, National Speed Coolant Hard Pipes, National Speed Coolant Overflow Canister, National Speed Windshield Washer Reservoir, National Speed Turbocharger Heat Shield, Wilwood 3/4" Clutch Master Cylinder, Competition Clutch Lightweight Flywheel, Competition Clutch Stage 4 Clutch System, ATE Super Blue Clutch Fluid, Redline MT-90 Transmission Fluid, Nismo R-200 Limited Slip Differential (3:73), 300ZX Half Shafts, McKinney Motorsports Engine Cradle, Nissan Sylvia S14 5 speed Transmission, Arizona Z Car Billet Differential Mount, Aeromotive A1000 Fuel Pump, Aeromotive Pre/Post-Pump Filters, -8AN Feed/Return Lines, Greddy Fuel Rail, Precision 780cc Injectors, Aeromotive 1:1RR Fuel Pressure Regulator, Peak Boost custom TiAL V-Band Turbo inlet/TiAL 44mm Wastegate Turbo Manifold, Garrett GT3071R Wet Housing, Dual Ball Bearing CHRA Turbocharger -.63a/r V-Band inlet/outlet Turbine Housing, TiAL 44mm Black Wastegate, TiAL W 50mm Polished Blow-Off Valve, McKinney Motorsports Intercooler, AEM Standalone ECU with UEGO, AEM Boost Control Solenoid, AEM Intake Air Temp Sensor, AEM 3.5 Bar MAP Sensor, and the following custom National Speed items: 4" intake tube, turbo oil feed/return lines, coolant feed/return lines, 3" 304 Stainless Steel Downpipe, 3" 304 Stainless Steel Exhaust, 1.75" 304 Stainless Steel Wastegate Relocation Tube, 1.75" 304 Stainless Steel Slip-Jointed Recirculating Dump Tube, 2.50" Aluminum hot-side Charge Pipe, 3.00" Aluminum cold-side Charge Pipe, Vacuum & Boost Reference Lines.
Suspension & Brakes:
Arizona Z Car Coilover System, with 375lb springs, AZC Billet Control Arms (front & rear), AZC Billet Quick Steering Knuckles, AZC Camber Plates, Momentum Custom Camber Plate Covers, Suspension Techniques Sway Bars, Wilwood 6-Piston Front Disc Brakes from AZC, Wilwood 2-Piston Rear Disc Brakes from AZC, AZC/Wilwood Brake Proportioning Valve
Wheels & Tires:
17" CCW Classics with brushed centers and polished lips, custom made and measured for my unique application, fitted with 235/40-17 Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires.
Bodywork:
NO BONDO. Car went through a 3 year rotisserie restoration by one of the biggest auto restoration names on the East of USA: Miller Brothers Hot Rod Barn. I didn't want to mess with the lines of the car, so we just laser-aligned everything to make sure it's perfect. We even hung plumbs through the shock towers and then made sure that the car was 100% square. All bodywork was done with metal and a meticulous grinder operator, Guy Reed. Other than that, it has a fiberglass chin spoiler to keep the dreaded lift at bay, and the bumpers have been cleaned up, welded together, triple chromed, and snugged in to the body just a touch. All stainless and rubber on the car are new. All bolts on the car (every last screw) has been made perfect and nickel-plated.
Interior:
Perfectly stock. Everything works. It does however have a little switch on the driver's side of the center console that allows the driver to choose between ECU maps. Flip it towards you, and it has 320RWHP and flip it away and it has 437RWHP.

Thanks man.
If any of you think you MIGHT know someone who would be interested, feel free to contact me ahead of time. I'm happy to work out a SERIOUS bird dog fee for someone bringing the right buyer. (Surely you have something that you'd like a new set of HREs for... or a supercharger...)
