  1. Are you really sure? perhaps they can. I don't know myself as I have never tried but people install all sorts of different seats ranging from BMW to Mazda's in there car. I would be surprised if 2+2 seats could not be fitted. Perhaps just swapping out slide hardware.
  2. funny someone is actually using a used strap. Mine went to the great strap land in the sky. use the improved mount with bump strap no more clunk.

    needs 4' steel spikes out the front and machine guns out the hood, they could point backwards or forwards youre choice.
  4. have someone switch the blower motor on while you watch the dash pot that increases idle and see if it moves.
  5. switch or sensor? Anyhow I don't know why one would want to remove the sensor. If it is bad it's a really cheap item to replace.
  6. Just thinking out loud: What if there was an Air temp sensor that had the same resistance range as an inline resistore or pot people are putting inline from the WTS. Then if you mounted it near the fuel rail you would have automatic compinsation for the hot condition. Probably this would not work and there is no such atp in existance. Just thinking out loud.

    The pic I provided shows the piece before I trimmed and glued it (only the upper portion) using lock-tight W/S cement, it is holding up nicely. The rear door peice I have not obtained yet so I can't help you there, sorry.
  8. Pull the plugs yet? and I have heard ATF fluid and let it soak for a while. I am sure other people know more than I on this one.

    No, I liked my gun port idea better.

    You may remember, the rear park bench saved my car one day! (insurance provided me with a shiney new one!)
  11. This is food for thought. My car has this issue also, worse than Fastwoman's but not as bad as Zeds. It seems that a common solution is to trick the car into thinking that it is colder than it is (or did I get that backwards?).

    Hey people were hard on the hood roof guy (or was it he was hard on us?). Live Long and prosper.
  14. I know I am not answering you're question, but there are ways of getting the EFI system to perform well. Search the forum or ask what you're symptoms are and you will get help. But at the least you will need of course, a new intake monifold and carbs, but you know this already.

    Look at it this way: it was a 2+2

    If you're harness is really that bad and you deside to buy a used one try this: http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?44788-Wiring-harness-repair-kit-eliminate-your-electrical-gremlins!-Rate-Topic&highlight=harness+repair I am thinking of ordering the kit myself.

    You're car is in good hands. Most people would have sent it to the crusher. Another Z saved.

    welcome, Pics? Hey, since you mentioned parts can you spare a set of headlight pigtails and there respective connectors, The round three pin ones (280z). I am having Dave build me a headlight harness. I have some odds and ends I could trade

    Looks like you have at the least done some homework. Check for rust (even with fresh paint). The car pictured has a 280z hood, missing rear bumper sides and a really strange looking front bumper (perhaps a front end incedent). Clutch replacement is one of the easer jobs and should not cost much, $100-$150 if you do it yourself. Talk him way down considering it is not a running car. Good luck.
