82 280zx turbo... runs fine... new alternator and all new fuel system components along with cap and rotor, plugs and wires. car starts up good and idles fine in park. u can rev the engine and everything it all sounds nice. then u put it into drive and give it some gas, it moves boggingly a few feet then dies. car starts right back up and is accompanied by a squeeling noise when u step on the gas....sounds like alternator belt. the squeeling doesnt go away till u put it in drive, give it some gas, and the car instantly dies. ive heard this could be the transmission modulator.... anyone had a problem like this??? i really need help

I was working on my 74 260z and I put the battery in. I connected up the passitive and the negitive came in contact with the negitive one. I then hooked up the car and a battery fusible link burnted. what else do I have to check to see if it is ok? What else would be effected by this? The car was in the lock possition and nothing was on in the car.

I am looking for answers here .I have a 9/77 buildt 280z 2+2, because of the late year manufacture, I can assume that it is conscidered a 78. Any way It does no have a catalytic converter installed. It has a hood sticker that says non catalytic, but if I remove the hood for another one what tells the MVD that it does not require one and that I just didnt take it off? I know about the floor temp sensor and the light in the center dash just below the vents on the left opposite of the fuel light and none of those are installed ,but what tells the MVD that this is a non catalytic car, is there some where else that it is spelled out? any one out there got any ideas??????

I'm putting this in the help me forum because I never look in classifieds, and therefore, you might not either. I'm missing one chrome end of the grab handle on the passenger side for my 240z interior handle. Does anyone have an extra that they could sell me? Please PM if you do, and thanks for reading my post.

Hi Guys, was wondering if i could get some help with my 280zx, I have a problem with the fuel consumption, Im getting roughly 330km's (200miles approx) out of a tank, roughly 65Litres of fuel, That seems kinda rough to me, Ive had a bit of a look around and other folks have said they are getting (or its possible to get) out of an L28E atleast around about the 20mpg's mark, which would give me in-access of 500km's out of a tank by my calculations, The car runs really well, starts first time, dosent seem to be miss-firing, Anyone got any theories on what could be leading to this kind of fuel consumption???

I am trying to find a breaker plate assembly for a ZX dizzy with the E12-80 module. It is a Model D6K82-01 distributor. I am reconditioning a unit that I purchased in classifieds but, :nervous: , the breaker assembly plastic plate and ball bearings are shot on one side of the breaker plate, so the vacuum advance doesn't work. The diaphram is good, as are all the other parts. No shaft play. I sure would like to get the advance working. If anyone has a plastic plate and a few ball bearings from a unit that has a bad shaft, or whatever, please let me know. I apologize for posting here instead of the classified "WANTED" section, but I don't think many people visit that s…

Like Clint Eastwood said: "A man's got to know his limitations." Well, that cracked speaker in the center of my dash on my 280ZX is staying put. Cannot get at it without pulling most of the dash out. After two attempts decided it's not worth it so am looking for somewhere to relocate a new left speaker to. Anyone who has done this? Any suggestions gentlemen? Mark

Hi guys, I got my 240z about a year ago and I've been cruising this site ever since then. It's taken me a year but I think I'm getting my head around the mechanicle side of things... Having no mechanicle experience at all :squareeye I want to know if I can put an E12-80 Ignition module out of a 280zx on a 280z electronic distributor? As far as I know the 280zx ignition module mounts directly onto the side of the distributor, where as the 280z distributor has no area to mount the ignition module on it. I was just going to fabricate a plate that I can mount on the side of the 280z distributor and then screw the ignition module onto that. Any input would ne great. Cheers!
