A few questions about my 86' 300zx, People with GTS Clear headlight covers... and...
Great.... just great... just what I need, a 17 year old with no job, no insurance, and now a broken power steering pump.
LOL
freaking crap... man, this sucks.
Remember when I posted a thread 1-2 days ago about my steering being very hard, well it looks like the "whining" sound came from my power steering pump. I need a new one.
I was getting my routine 3000 mile oil change and the guys flushed out all the oil in my car, and one guy installed a filter while another was putting oil in the engine. Anyways, the guy put the 10W40 oil in the engine and left to work on another car. The owner came out from his workshop or office or whatever you call it, and started putting oil, 4 MORE quarts in my engine. I had a total of 8 quarts in the motor!!!
Poor VG30E. The owner diagnosed the mistake and was forced to flush out all the oil, and told me I got a "free engine flush". I was like cool whatever. Anyways, thats when I found out that my power steering pump to OEM specs costed me $513, and $91 labor as well. Resulting in more than a $600 receipt. I was like are you out of your mind!!! So I made the guy call the local Stealership [dealership] and they quoted $300 for a new pump, sounds even better!! $400 is ALWAYS better than $600 especially if it takes you literally more than 2 months to save for it or more.
My car has more problems that I need.
Now if you guys could help me out with a few questions.
Owners of the GTS Clear headlight covers, would you please show me pictures of what it looks like as well as how its installed [glue, tape, nails, etc..] cause im really eager to find out, because im ordering tomorrow.
Also I took off the plate under the steering wheel, its not the plate, i forgot the word, lol, but the spot under the steering wheel that you take off to unhook the harness for the "lights down" but on effect [lazy eye effect] :dumbass:
I dont know where the harness is located, i have no clue, there are like 1000 harnesses.
Also for christmas my mom is getting me a new radio, cause at the moment I dont got a radio, I dont even got freaking speakers!!! and all the wiring is screwed up from the previous owner, so what im asking is that if I purchased my own stereo and speakers will bestbuy, cartoys, or whatever company that does "free installs with cd player purchase" install it all for me including new wiring ALL throughout the car for free?
Is it there job to do that or something, cause I wouldnt mind letting them have my car for a few hours. heh
You don't want that headlight covers they tend to fly off and are cheaply made. As for the pump just save up and buy it and if you can't do the work yourself then pay someone.
I've got an extra power steering pump lying around...It's yours if you want it. I'd check to see that it will work becuase my car is an 85 turbo...I bought it because I thought mine was bad, but it turns out my rack is the problem. I bought it used, off a running car, and haven't put it on mine ever.

It gives him the illusion he's better than other people by correcting their sentence structuring skills. Or maybe he's just in English composition class, like me......

HAHA or I was an AP student all through high school, and now in college I am dissapointed by the poor diction and syntax that everyone uses. Yet it does not make me feel any better then anyone; so I am not correcting grammar to feel better about myself, more or less so I don't go nuts trying to read things.
Grow up kid don't take things so hard. Take note of your mistakes and don't make them in the future.
It would be more properly put "Who in Gods name are you?"; I am just another person meandering throughout life, and that is all I am. Don't change between what and were in a sentence when addressing a person. It is incorrect diction. Similar to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person errors.
I don't smoke anything, to me that lowers a persons IQ. If I had been smoking something I probably wouldn't of noticed your poor English usage.

So just lighten up.

Haha yeah, but at 17 I was far more educated then he seems to be on the subject of cars and English. Heck most people would have gone crazy if they knew that I was 16 when I was telling them how to fix their cars and telling them all sorts of things about the Z31. I guess I just read alot and I retain it; plus I do alot of work on cars so that might help to (but in all as a Newbie instead of asking questions I searched and I read up on things. It is unbelievable the things you can simply learn by searching; heck I must of gone through and read all that I could on Z31.com countless times. Even though I never post there I must say for me that site was the best learning tool possible.
Now I don't feel so bad being young..I'm a senior in HS and 18. I helped out our friend here with a powersteering pump. $50 shipped...If anyone needs a used alternator..i've got one

Actually what I need is a battery. Mine's been deep cycled one too many times. Tested out ok on Autozones thingamatron, but all batteries test out good 5 minutes after you turn off the car.....
