  1. Title is misleading. I already know where to put the sender for the oil temperature gauge (in the port for it in the oil pan). What I need to know is where to put the sender for the oil temperature warning light. Longacre says only, "Install where oil flows into engine." Is there anywhere to put it in an F54? steve

    The horizontal wiring is the same. Wire on left and right of dome light. I can't imagine the glass not fitting. The best price you can find from MidwestZ (Chloe) or Victoria British, I will sell for 25% of that + shipping. Make sense? No gaurantee on the defrost being intact. steve

    I have a rear glass in good condition I will sell for 25% of Chloe/VB. + shipping. It is not a 72, it is a vertical wire. steve
  6. Alfa, I believe I sent it to you. It is this one, no? Oh, and Jon: BSP? Yeah RIGHT! steve

    Why don't you just put Kumho Ecsta's or Victo's or Yoko A032R's on it? Forget that 'Ultra Performance' stuff they try to sell you! There is NOTHING 'ultra-performance' with a TW over 100. Here in CA......weekend cruiser.....not much rain (all these tires actually do quite well in the rain)..... get them unshaved and they will last on a street car forever. steve

    I need the rear, right, hardline from a 240,260 or 280. It is the short one that travels from the Tee mounted to the frame rail down to the right rear wheel well. I will even accept one that has had mile vise-grip treatment. Anyone? Pretty Please? steve

    Still, if I hadn't decided to have a motor built and new 44's and all that $$ crap, this is what I would be getting. Half the price of CCW or CCC or CWC or whatever they are calling themselves this week,and half the price of Kodiak and .....? $250 or so ain't bad! steve

    Yeah, and 17lbs for 15X8. If you can get to the Neckar pattern somehow, your choices in steel wheels skyrocket. Of course, they aren't 13 lb wheels, but they are $60 each! I don't know exactly what Z32 pattern is either, but I am sure one of the places who make 5-bolt hat conversions could just as easily make one in 5X5. I won't mention either of the places by name...Mr. 13 can come here and tell us who they are. steve

    What do you mean limits? How can a supposed 'international' event have limits? It should be open to everyone! It's just not fair! I'm telling my mommy! Dontcha just love the peace and quiet over here? steve

    >>>I have never heard of any one using a locker for Racing in any thing other than Drag racing.<<< Well, then...you should listen more. Fairly common in road racing, actually. steve

    It is no problem getting Diamonds in 4X113.4 or 4X114.3 or whatever it is!!! 4 1/2! No modifications to the fenders, but it is a 280, so it sits a bit higher naturally.... I have lowered it about 2+ inches. The backspace is 4 3/8". It might need to be different for 16". Coming to Solvang?

    I have a set of the Diamonds in 15X8 (most of the Neckar wheels only come in 15.....AERO, Basset, Diamond, etc...although Basset makes 13 and 14 and Diamond has 13-16). Very utilitarian. Not somehting you would put on a show car, but mean looking! Lots of racers use them. Can't beat the price. Yes, they are a tad heavy, but not much. Here is what I have in my garage right now. Check this out: 14X7 AR 'Turbine' with 225/50/14 Kumho V700 @ 30%: 38.8 lbs. 15X7 Eagle Alloy five-spoke with 225/50/15 BFG Touring T'A at 70%: 37.6 lbs. 15X8 Diamond with 225/50/15 Kumho V700 @ 30%: 40.2 lbs. Several of the steel wheel makers mention in their listings, "Cannot be balanced by centerbore. Must be balanced by bolt holes." Don't really know the ins and outs of that edict, but thought I might throw it in. steve

  20. There are companies who will make harnesses to your specs. Here is one I corresponded with recently and they seemed quite enthusiastic about custom harnesses. Kay Jay Co steve

    Are there Capris in Mustang clubs? Are there Chevelles in Goat clubs? Are there 'Cudas in Challenger clubs? Are there G35s in 350Z clubs? Or, perhaps more accurately, in terms of lineage... Are there Escorts in Focus clubs? Are there K-cars in PT Cruiser clubs? Are there Loti in DeLorean or Mr. 2 clubs? Are there Brats in WRX clubs? Are there Beetles in Porsche clubs? Are there Fox's in S4 clubs? Are there 240Zs in S14 clubs? Exist in a sidebar or go away. This is not ClassicDatsunCars.com. I love you all, but just stating the facts. This is ClassicZCars. Do we enjoy reading about the 240K and various Skylines? Sure, quite a few of us do--myself included. Do you belong? Probably not. Notice how many 510's and roadsters are here? Now THOSE are the usual 'outsider' populace of a Z site. Funny we don't have any...save Vic and Mike. Even if you create your own forum here, the way this site is formatted, it will not matter. How many times have you read something on a thread only to discover (only of you are paying attention) it is on the Australian club forum? How many time have you read something so imbecilic you assumed you were browsing 'Funnybone' only to look up and discover you were in 'Brakes and Shocks'? It won't matter if they have their own forum. The posts will still show up on the front page and in the latest 100 and that is how most of us surf. Maybe we need headers like the Home-site: (240K) Re: Fat Fenders and Bleeding Nipples (280ZX) Re: My cool Chuck Norris Hood (Sub/Dom) Re: your master cylinder (MBLA) Re: Are these too fat? (240z) Conspiracy theories on handbrake placement ...so the people who are too friggin stupid to know better can drool their way down the posts selecting what they want to read and reply (inserting their favorite vendor, of course) to. Thanks for ruining a perfectly good poll--that I didn't start, for once. steve
