HI everyone, I have to start by saying I know very little about Z cars. I need some help and guidance from the experts please. Sorry if this is a long post, but I have alot of questions. This is my story: My Grandfather bought this car from their neighbor in about '76, it was parked in '84 (in the garage) due to my grandfather having a back problem.

Today...i noticed that my throttle body was really dirty so i removed it from the car...I cleaned it thoroughly in a solvant tank and with brake cleaner. I also put in new spark plugs. Now when i rev the motor...it takes a long time for the RPM's to go back down...Sometimes it doesnt go back down at all. Did i damage the throttle body some how. Did i damage maybe the idle control valve? The linkage is fine i already checked it. Its a 72 240z but it has a 77 L28 w/ n47 ...Any ideas? THanks P.s. if i tap on the top of the throttle body with a hammer... the idle goes back down.

Has anyone ever used this stuff before? I have a spot on the lower radiator support where it meets the frame rail that would be difficult to fabricate a metal patch that would fit accurately however it does not warrant a new rad support. I have heard stories of this stuff being fantastic and repaired cracked engine blocks, however never in an instance of "body work" per say

Does anyone know what year of Skyline one needs for the LSD that will fit a 5/70. Will be in Japan in a few days and it would not hurt to see if I can find one at a fare price.
