1976 280Z Restoration Project


wheee!

Recommended Posts


While I wait for more brake components to get finished, I thought I would test out this new Park Brake cable from @silverminemotors.

Available here from Edan: Park Brake Cable

This original equipment was worn out and not suitable for the new Wilwood park brakes.

The new cable is complete with the cir-clips needed to secure it to our setups, and fits nicely through our rubber hangers. I will get some more pics of the setup as I connect them to the park brakes.

And one without the glare of the flash under the car...

The length of the cable looks perfect so it should allow some flexibility in the custom setups for different people. I like it!

Took a few minutes to customize the @silverminemotors rear disc brake and park brake adapters. The supplied raw aluminum finish looked good, but I thought it would look better on my car with a nice gloss black finish.

First a nice sandblasted texture, still drying from the cleaner...:

And some gloss powder:

And again after 30 minutes at 425 degrees!

Now to just chase the threads and we should be good to go!

Back from training and parts are coming in!

This is a little gift to myself... custom lug nuts with rotating wheel faces and locking caps. A little cherry bling!

This is the wideband sensor for the Haltech kit.

Hope to be in the shop again this week.
