Posted July 12, 200618 yr comment_174309 Hey guys, This is my first car I've ever worked on. Im 20 yrs old going to Cal Poly. Bought the car in November 2005. Its a 3/74 260z. Didn't run good, flat tops, suspension was gone, brakes were gone, and the paint was faded and oxidized.How does she sound? The engine clip has a large knocking you can hear, I know its cuz the air lid isn't on and the hose that connect up to the bottom on the back plate makes the noise.http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4896065304379408623http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4802243828980094343 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20771-hows-it-sound/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 12, 200618 yr comment_174314 Sounds a lot better. That's what I should be up to this weekend if my newly purchased round tops turn up on time. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20771-hows-it-sound/#findComment-174314 Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 12, 200618 yr comment_174351 Hey Joe, Looks and sounds pretty good. What did you have to do to the suspension and how long did that task take? After my carb swap I just got done to the U-jounts, but I think I need to do the ones on the drive shaft as well.Bill Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20771-hows-it-sound/#findComment-174351 Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 12, 200618 yr Author comment_174362 Well, the suspension started Thanksgiving and ended end of January. That was while going to school and working. I did all urethane everywhere under the car, tokico illuminas, and AZ car springs. I painted and cleaned some stuff up under there while I was taking my time. I'd say if I had all the tools and everything, it could be done in a weekend. (48 hours straight) haha. Carb swap took a weekend, thanks a lot to you colorado! I gotta now do tranny and differential fluid, and fix the urethane squeaks, and clunks of drivetrain. Also did the S12+8 brake swap.
