An ex-girlfriend of mine had a 240Z .... I think that the word _sometimes_
should be underlined about a hundred times.  The car had good acceleration
once every year and a half .... unless you consider 25 second 1/4 miles
good!!!  Of course, the problem could've been that we couldn't keep 
the car running long enough to decently clean out the carbs (dual webers)!!!
