That's child cruelty. 😉 By the way, I used to have a bench that was just about the height of the door sill. I could lie on that while reaching into the driver's footwell. It was much nicer than just throwing a blanket over the door sill while I was trying to maneuver the cotter key into the clevis pin.

Av8ferg Posted January 22, 2022 Share #76 Posted January 22, 2022 Your diff is painted blue. Was it replaced by you or did you get the car with it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It’s an R200 that came from a 280ZX. We painted it blue before the install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed Head Posted January 30, 2022 Share #79 Posted January 30, 2022 There are only two wires. One ring is bigger than the other. Some pumps are set up so that they only fit the right way. They usually put a + and a - on the terminals. If you have a meter test the wires first. Pretty sure green with white stripe is positive. The black one should be continuous to ground. Meter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveJ Posted January 30, 2022 Share #80 Posted January 30, 2022 Replace the rings. Use connectors like this: https://www.amazon.com/Pupilash-Terminal-Insulated-Electric-Connector/dp/B08T5P9Y2N For the green wire in the harness use a female connector and a male connector on the red wire on the pump. Use a male connector on the black wire in the harness and a female connector on the black wire on the pump. Put some dielectric grease on both male connectors. To crimp the connectors, I recommend a ratcheting crimper like this: https://www.amazon.com/Klein-Tools-Ratcheting-Crimper-10-22/dp/B07WMB61J5/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM569457 Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share #81 Posted January 31, 2022 New rotors came in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Av8ferg Posted January 31, 2022 Share #82 Posted January 31, 2022 Those looks nice…it appears the supply chain issues haven’t impacted brake rotors. Of note, many think the the rotor cuts face rearward but the actually go the other way. The rotor in the picture you provided should go on the drivers side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorsport called me and stated it’s a 3 month backlog, but it was mailed out later that day. I’m guessing they are concerned about shipping being fubar but it’s usually a week turnaround. I’ll be pairing them with the S12-8 calipers after our snow storm in north Texas this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siteunseen Posted January 31, 2022 Share #84 Posted January 31, 2022 I have those same Stop Techs on my 240. I used ceramic pads without any issues so far and that was 4 years ago. No squeal whatsoever and I only drive it every couple of months. I remember the Zs I had in my early life and the brakes were screamers. One of the few things I hated about the cars.
