What flywheel will work on my 83 2.8 ZX Engine from a 2+2 in a 76? Do I need to use a 2+2 flywheel or can I use a regular coupe flywheel?

Good news in several ways! I've hooked up with a source that will make the "Plug-N-Play 240Z Alternator Upgrade Adapter" to my specs. And the production version is frankly better in many ways than I had hoped. 1.) It is now the small, weather-resistant and self-contained unit I had originally envisioned. (See pictures below.) 2.) It is made with a factory-style connector, and new brass terminals. The necessary diode is self-contained. 3.) Better yet, the final version is cheaper than I had thought it could be made. The final price is $15.00 each, INCLUDING postage within the US. Contact me for shipping outside the US. A small volume discount is available for quantities…

Gonna be kinda long here, SORRY! Ok! son apparently blew up/locked up/trashed his 73 240Z motor.Havent had a chance to go over and look at it, but doesnt sound good. what I am think is this. I have a complete 77 280 motor with 5sp sitting in the garage, problem , he took it out when it was installed in mine and now smokes like a B**ch. Thinking it is rings, since the N47 (non-oiler rail) was recently rebuilt with new seals ect. Thinking of pulling the plugs and powering the starter and checking compression, should this tell me if it's the rings? would do a lower end rebuild if necessary. now he has the dual weber down draft carbs and intake, will it fit on the newer N47 h…

I installed an '83 ZX 5 spd in my '71 240Z, along with the L28. I was not crazy about the idea of cutting the sheet metal in the shifter area, so I had the shift lever cut and welded to come out further to the back of the pivot point. I also bent the sheet metal upward at the front of the shifter hole to create more clearance. It seems like that may not have been enough to avoid interference problems. I think the rubber boot is bunching up at the front and putting enough pressure on the shift lever to pop it out of gear. Either that, or the new shift boot rubber is so stiff that it pulls the shifter out of gear. For those of you that have cut into the tunnel, what hav…

I have a number of the gear-reduction type starters; believe they are from the 280ZX?; and want to find out if they will work on a L24 motor. Seems like they fit the tranny hsg., but not sure if the solenoid kicks in far enough. Also, are there any advantages to using this type of starter?

Okay, so I'm going to put this out there. It seems to be common knowledge that 280 bumpers are less about form, and more about function, so I'm looking for information about swapping thinner-styled bumpers from an earlier Z (E260/240) onto my 280. I've done some searching around on the forums and come up with some vague, rather lackluster results, and I'm hoping some helpful folks can point me toward some info as well as, hopefully, examples of projects like this that have been done in the past. This is a project I would like to tackle at some undetermined point in the future, and I figure the more I know sooner, the better prepared I will be. My opinion question to a…
