My Datsun 280Z "Rustoration"

Me too!

Ask and you shall recieve.

 

The acoustics in my garage are less than desirable. Or it could be my crappy cell phone, But here you go. It needs some fine tuning but it idles great and revs nice.

sweet...

[CoeGuthrie]

Oh yeah! Can't wait to hear it in person!

[HaZmatt]

It's actually a lot louder than in the video. No exhaust. But the camera didn't pick up the sound very well

[CoeGuthrie]

I figured that was without exhaust. What are you going to do for exhaust? Especially size, but make etc?

[HaZmatt]

I will have a custom 2.5" built going to a high flow Borla muffler. Maybe a resonator if it has any drone.

[CoeGuthrie]

Nice man! Looking good!

[rcb280z]

Nice!

[wheee!]

, I should have asked earlier! Sounds awesome Matt! Love the throttle linkage too....

[rossiz]

excellent! looks/sounds mean - i see what ya mean about those custom plug leads... it will be much tidier when the dizzy shaft is spun around correctly.

 

btw - my original exhaust plan was to put the muffler in the tunnel and the resonator at the tip to avoid seeing the muffler hang down below the fender on the drivers side. i mocked this up and was happy w/the sound, but my exhaust guy built it the other way by accident. never went back to get it fixed, but someday i will...

This week I will be getting my carbs tuned for this altitude, switch the oil pump around, and get my hood and fenders back on.

 

I got a new voltage regulator and a new battery.

 

 

And a new toy for me. I was outgrowing my old tool box pretty quickly. This was on sale at Home Depot for $250 and I couldnt resist!
