Hey whats up team hybrid

[280zgerm]

Hey guys, My name is Ricardo but you can call me rick or richie. Iam 21 years old, I live in sanferndo valley, Born and raised. I currantly go to U.T.I and i am about to finish up and then go through the diesel program. My goal in life right now is to become an automotive engineer and hopfully have a carreer somewhere in the racing field. I currently own a 1978 Datsun 280z Turbo. I had the car for about a year or so and i did so much to it. When i got the car the only good thing about it was the paint and thats all. Everything was falling apart and the wiring was really bad. There was alot of open wires and everywire was different from the wiring diagram so that was a pain in the ass. Took about 3 months to figure out what was what. After the wiring i went to try to restore the rest of the car. I did a motor swap from a 83 280zx turbo i am currently just trying to replace every single thing on the car till it looks clean ;] Little by Little ill get there.

welcome man

[280zgerm]

hey whats up rikki. It was good meeting you and all the other guys. Crazy night huh? Did you look up the wangon midnight movie?(not the anime). My next plans are to fix some of the rust on the floor pans and frame rails and coilovers, theres no bolt on's so i have to get a custom one made. My big goal for my motor is hopfully getting a good aggressive cam(Lift(In/Ex): .460/.460. Duration(In/Ex): 270/260), bore it to a 3.0L(183cid),bigger turbo(holset hy35w), and meggasquirt(EFI control management). Hopefully it goes as planned man.
