Thats the 75-77 one.

Site - Thanks for the input.  I searched for Ultra Power p/n UPR PR8 and they must have discontinued, no luck. I guess I'll just keep searching or maybe even try blocking off one of the pipes on the 280Z FPR.

You're right, I can't find it now.  That $96 one from rockauto.com is the cheapest I can find.  Good luck Sir.

You are right!  My eyes have been looking at the boobie page and seeing twos of everything.

[rcb280z]

Haha! Me too!

Chiefmd, I can't believe how much these things have gone up in price! Personally if what rockauto has is correct, Bosch, I would get it. JMO.

Me neither. I can't believe that all the aftermarket manufactures have stopped making it and the one's that are available are ridiculously priced. I did find a used one for $50 but I'm a little hesitant as it is 35 years old.

I guess I'll just have to bite the bullet and pay up ?

Most EFI systems from the 70's and early 80's run at 36 psi.  2.5 bar, in European terms.  BMW, Volvo, Saab, Mercedes, etc.  Might find a cheap one you can retrofit that way.

Closeout!  $15.  Will require some fitting.

Same think with ZX brake calipers as of 6 months ago. Non of the big parts houses had any, RockAuto only had just one side for the rear for the longest time, and the bleeders are pretty worn out.
