T5 transmission pop's out of second gear
How's the alignment in the shifter cutout? I used to have this problem because of the rubber boot. Fixed it with a revised shaft that fits better.

Photobucket Rant - They SUCK
Photobucket has gone downhill lately. I was recently browsing pictures on their site and there were WAAAYY to many ads. It was frustrating so I just closed the website. Guys, picture hosting on our club is FREE for members. You have your own albums and I back up this site every night. Take a look at our photos area, you'll be very pleased with the way it works. My favorite is the way you can drag and drop multiple pictures into a gallery without compressing, or resizing, the images. I can host images at no cost because we own the server and do not pay overages for storage or bandwidth. Most other sites have gone to a pay system because they are hosting their servers on the cloud. Cloud servers are convenient, but, cost too much money in the long run. I also do this for a living, which is why I know how to make it work.

Parts for Sale: 1975 Fuel Injection System with Computer
Here are some pics of the car it came off.. New fuel injectors at the time (probably 10 years ago). I ended up parting out the car and the fuel injection system was the only parts I still have in storage.

Parts for Sale: 1975 Fuel Injection System with Computer
By the way, thanks for all the help guys! I thought this car was a '78 but it looks more like it was a '75 or '76. It's been a LONG time since I got rid of it, so, my memory seriously lapsed here. I was going to convert mine to fuel injection, but, I don't need that kind of project right now. I'd most certainly have to replace the tank and fuel pump, which is something I don't want to do right now. The triple Mikuni's are doing well.

Help: U-joint replacement 71 240z
Hey Don, you know I just did a search and didn't come up with much about u-joint replacement process. For such a common thing that needs replacing on a Z, I figured we would have a few at least! This looks like a good opportunity to start some more discussion. The search results, feel free to rummage through them: http://www.classiczcars.com/search/?&q=u-joints&page=2&sortby=relevancy Back when I did this work, I found out that cheap u-joints are not the answer. If you use the cheap ones, you'll do the job twice.. one with the cheap brand, and a second time with the quality brand.

Buy it now price = $3,499.99 http://www.ebay.com/itm/HOT-WHEELS-REDLINE-DATSUN-Z-WHIZ-HAND-PAINTED-PROTO-FROM-LARRY-WOOD-COLLECTION-/311864767354?&_trksid=p2056016.m2516.l5255 HOT WHEELS REDLINE DATSUN Z-WHIZ HAND PAINTED PROTO FROM LARRY WOOD COLLECTION HERE IS A HAND PAINTED DATSUN Z-WHIZ BLANK BASE PROTOTYPE. THIS HAS REDLINES ON IT AND THEY WERE BLACKED OUT AND THE CAR WAS USED FOR CATALOGS. SO YOU GET A PROTOTYPE AND A CATALOG CAR ALL IN ONE. DOESN'T GET MUCH BETTER THEN THAT. EVERYONE KNOWS THAT LARRY WOOD WAS A DESIGNER FOR HOT WHEELS FOR ALMOST 40 YEARS. HIS COLLECTION WAS BEING SOLD AT THE NATIONALS AT PITTSBURGH AND I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO BUY 34 PROTOTYPES FROM HIS COLLECTION. EACH COME WITH A CERTIFICATE THAT IS HAND SIGNED BY LARRY WOOD. THEY ARE ALSO MAKING A BOOK OF ALL HIS PROTOTYPES AND EACH ONE WILL BE PICTURED IN THE BOOK ALONG WITH A REGISTRY OF WHO BOUGHT THEM. ONCE MOST OF THESE PROTOTYPES ARE SOLD FROM THIS COLLECTION THEY MAY NOT SURFACE AGAIN FOR MANY YEARS. I DO NOT HAVE AN AUTO ACCEPT OR AUTO DECLINE PRICE SET ON THE BEST OFFER. IT IS HARD TO PUT A PRICE ON THESE PROTOTYPES AS THERE IS ONLY ONE OF MOST OF THESE CARS. PLEASE CHECK THE PICTURES AND BE SURE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS PRIOR TO PURCHASE. I WILL BE SHIPPING THROUGH UPS. I AM GOING TO TAKE THE CARS TO THEM AND HAVE THEM PACK AND SHIP AND FULLY INSURE THAT WAY IT IS 100 PERCENT COVERED IF THERE IS ANY LOST OR DAMAGED PACKAGES. IF THEY ARE THE ONES THAT PACKED AND SHIPPED THEY COVER 100 PERCENT NO QUESTIONS ASKED. I WILL NOT SHIP THESE INTERNATIONAL. THIS IS FOR UNITED STATES BUYERS ONLY. THANKS A LOT
