OK - I hate to destroy perfectly good equipment - if they were rough/inop I wouldn't care. I'll have to see what happens DTR.

August 3, 2024Aug 3 Author comment_667918 Also forgot to add this here - last Nov. ZedHead pointed me to a TechnoToy kit for fitting the short nose R200 into the 280Z, so I could use the 350Z short nose I have (w/LSD), assuming I can figure the axle adaptation.
