    i have a question. I have been working on the hatch weatherstripping for the Goon. It is pretty much done now but I am not impressed with the bond, If I wanted I could peel the whole thing right back off! The adhesive sticks to the paint pretty good but not to the rubber seal. We have been using the black 3m weatherstrip adhesive and the 3m fast drying adhesive. Both seem to do it. Part way through I wipe the weather strip down with solvent to see if that would help but I couldn't tell that it changed.
  4. Does it do it if you are parked and press the brakes? My suspicion would be blown brake booster,

    Their disclaimer states the actual hitch may differ from the image. I suspect it will..

    Quite possibly, yes
  7. How they did it; may be why it sits too high

    My reasoning was I thought there were significant differences in the hvac controls in an AC equipped 280. The expansion valve issue is new to me. Could you just use all new refrigerant pieces but use the factory controls and ducting?

    I think I might look into aquiring the factory parts from a 280z with AC then buy a new dryer, compressor and condenser
  10. Do you have the correct halfshafts out of the 88' car?

    No issues with plating in the bores or mating surfaces. They look really nice! Who did the plating?
  12. Patcon posted a post in a topic in Build Threads
    Did you plate the caliper halves?
  13. How flexible is that NOS filler neck? I have often wondered how malleable the originals were. Most of the ones I have seen are super stiff almost brittle

    Is it possible it could have gotten 180° out somehow?

    It seems to me it has to be spark related You have ether going in and you smelled fuel coming out the other day. So it's breathing. That leaves spark...

    So how to keep track of which goes where while powder coating? Never mind, they're all slightly different lengths. Provided the current free length is close to spec
  19. Patcon posted a post in a topic in Build Threads
    Am I correct in believing that some of the springs are corner specific? Some have different colored paint dabs...
  20. What all did you add to the car? If it was me, I would reverse those adds and see if it gets better

    We bought some a while back. I will need to look a little closer at them.

    There is also a curved piece of vinyl covered metal(?) that has screws that hold it to the top edge of the inner rocker panel. That's what the small holes are from.

    How similar are the Datsun 510 pieces?
  25. Not really surprising. It's a museum piece...
