Well that looks like alot of work but im definately wanting it done so im willing to do that, where would be a good place to start lookin for a POS Z31? In other words what are the local junkyards?

The real question is where are the local junkyards that don't treat you like shit...

well, there is a complete turbo automatic sitting in Hazers, but those guys are complete failures at life, bet you couldnt get it for less than $1000, and its worth dick. if you arent already, get an account on http://www.z31performance.com/forum/ and look in the classifieds section for shitty cars. or post up a wanted ad. also keep an eye on ebay there are some local ones on there. You could go to hazers and ask them about the car, but dont sound too interested. its blue and is sitting close to the buildings on the north end of the yard. You might stumble upon one locally as well, i see them from time to time and will look for one.

Yeah i could go there and ask about it. Of course i would have to be very clear about it due to the fact they dont even look for it, My brother and i went there and they just totally blew us off so we walked out pissed off, i have yet to see a decent guy who works there. and i have seen a couple Z31's that could be parted out.

you could try www.car-part.com as well.

How wild do you want to get with this car, is it going to be daily driver? I would start with the auto to manual swap.http://www.xenonz31.com/Modification/Auto_to_Manual_Swap/auto_to_manual_swap.html The reason is that the N/A auto trans is for gas milage (25 MPG) 130 WHP and the car runs 18 second 1/4mi. with the manual you will run 16.5@83mph in the 1/4 mi. My N/A auto trans started slipping at 180WHP and was slow off the line.

There was a 95 in the paper today, maybe worth a try. http://www.in-forum.com/classifieds/index.cfm
Go into transportation and click on parts & engines.
Edit: Click today after selecting parts & engines.

so what im hoping on doing with it is swapping the engine for a RB25DETT or a RB26DETT. and it has to be manual, i checked the in-forum for that ZX engine and it was gone.

[JN607]

no it's not, it's in there...

There are NO junkyards in Fargo/Moorhead that don't treat you like shit and think their shit is gold.

[JN210]

Maybe i missed it i'll go back and check the in-forum again. And yeah that's true its hard to find a Junkyard that doesnt treat you like shit.
