Finesse-it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This stuff WORKS.

I use 8mm spark plug boots. They last forever. No need to use any slickum. Just put 'em on and forget about em'

Not if it is still working.

New rack bushings cured my shimmy also. If the crossmember is bent real bad, change it. Lot of stuff connected to it.

To answer the original question, that is the clove box.

It would be a lot smarter and cheaper to just buy one.

I've made metal wire holders. If you make the holes large enough to accept heavy duty grommets they work just fine.

Ask and you will receive. That's why were here.

You'll like it!!!!!!!!! When they're right they are very impressive. Keep me posted on the remains. Skipzcar@aol.com. Thanks

That looks like a nice car. What's your plan for the body after you remove the engine? I've been looking for a decent ZX body. I have a great drive train in a badly rusted body.

My kids grew up in my shop. This brings back great memories. Thanks.

Are they the same as the 280Z? I have several from 280's. Send me a couple of bucks for postage and I'll send you one. Skipzcar@aol.com

With the age of these cars and multiple owners, it's hard to tell whats been changed. As a rule the standard shift cars have a R200 and the automatic cars have the R180. The R180 diff has side seal retainers and the R200 does not. The retainers have five bolts holding them in place. The only way to know for sure what the ratios are is to remove the rear cover and check the numbers on the ring gear.

Powdercoating might be the answer.

I did mine in a 78 from scratch. No kit. Use the old headliner as a pattern. Use a magic marker to draw lines fore and aft and side to side. Both headliner and roof. Use a tape measure so that the lines are centered. Try a trial run to be sure the lines will position the headliner correctly. Spray both roof and headliner with 3M contact cement. Very carefully position the headliner intersecting lines with the lines on the roof. Work from the lines outward. This is not a job that can be rushed. Be patient. When you get to the edges use a paint stir stick to tuck the edges in place.
