Most car shipping by truck can be handled on a “door-to-door” basis. How close the transport vehicle can get to you “door” depends, since auto transport trucks can be 75 feet long.
Open transport by truck is by the car carriers you occasionally see on the highway that are delivering new cars to a dealership. Open transport is less expensive than enclosed transport, but your car or SUV is exposed to the weather during the trip, which could take 8 to 10 days to cross the country or longer, depending on how many pickups and dropoffs the driver has to handle enroute.
Door-to-door service in an enclosed container is the “Cadillac” of auto transport options. Not only is your car, SUV, RV, motorcycle or boat not exposed to the weather but you won’t have to go anywhere to pick it up, either. The driver will get as close to your specified pick-up or delivery spot as he can legally and safely get. When access is restricted the auto transport company or moving company driver may ask that you meet the truck somewhere else, like a nearby parking lot, mall or store.
Most Moving Companies and Auto Transport Companies offer this service. Moving companies may offer to ship your car right with your household goods. However, as a rule moving companies charge more than auto transport companies when it comes to car shipping. You should compare the moving company’s insurance or valuation for your vehicle if you select a household goods mover to move your car, just as you would for the auto transport company.

The Nissan 300ZX Twin-Turbo has one of the most powerful engines created for the best Nissans.The VG30DETT has huge amounts of potential. This engine is putting out 300hp and almost 290 foot Lbs. of torque stock! The twin turbocharged and inter-cooled engine lacks very little. Read on to find the 5 most cost effective modifications to give you the most horsepower for your hard earned dollar!
#5
Throttle body modification:
The throttle body modification isn’t going to be the biggest gain in hp in the world, but the best part is, it’s FREE! In case you missed that, yes, its completely free! All you need for this modification is a metal file or a 10mm wrench (depending on what year 300zx). All you have to do is simply remove a nut or a bump of molded aluminum that is sitting right by your throttle cable. This bump or nut is preventing your throttle from being able to open completely. By allowing it to open completely you’ve increased your air flow which increases your horse power. Read the rest of this entry »

What if I told you that you can gain 5 horsepower this weekend, for less than $100? Or, what if I told you that you could gain 5 horsepower this weekend, for less than $20?
I bet you’d be interested eh?
Well, the good news is, I’m going to tell you how to gain 5 horsepower this weekend for $0-15 spent. Sound too good to be true? Well, read on!
1) Increase the H2O ratio in your coolant – if it weren’t for corrosion and freezing concerns, automotive makers would use pure water. Water cools much better than coolant any day of the week, and a cooler engine is a better performer.
Instead of half and half, try 40/60. DO NOT use pure water, As this may cause premature corrosion and that can be no fun at all to clean up. You may also try water wetter to further enhance this effect.
2) Index your spark plugs – this is an age old trick that is good for about 1 extra pony. The idea here is to “aim” the open end of the spark plug terminal (the gap) towards the intake side of the head. In order to accomplish this, simply mark on the plug a small line to indicate where this gap is, and install the plug as normal.
Try to line up the line with the intake side as best as you can. It may require buying 2 sets of spark plugs in order to do this, but hopefully you’ll be able to do this the first time. Be careful with aluminum heads not to over tighten, as that could lead to a costly repair.
3) Relocate IAT Sensor – This is a very simple modification that will work on a great deal of fuel injected vehicles. The IAT sensor (“Intake Air Temperature”) tells the computer how hot or cold the incoming air is. The computer will then adjust the amount of fuel being injected, as well as make minor adjustments to timing based on that reading.
The problem is that in many vehicles, the IAT sensor is located in the intake manifold, near the cylinder head. Therefore the air that the IAT sensor “reads” is much hotter than the air, say, in the intake arm. The idea with this mod, is to relocate the sensor to the intake arm. Use JB Weld or similar to patch up the old port for the sensor.
This will cause the computer to believe that incoming air is slightly cooler, causing it to inject more fuel and advance the timing a tad.
4) Synthetic Oil – This is guaranteed to pick up 1-2 horsepower, as multiple dynos over the years have proved this fact. Simply by switching to a true synthetic oil this weekend you can reduce the friction in your engine, improving efficiency, and therefore going faster.
5) Insulate Fuel Lines – When your fuel lines travel through the engine bay they heat up. However, cooler fuel produces more power for more reasons than just cooling down the intake charge–although that certainly helps things! So, to improve power output, simply purchase some refrigerator/air conditioning insulation and wrap the fuel lines with the insulation. While you’re at it, you may wish to go ahead and do this to the intake arm as well for even more power.
