looking for 280z strut inserts. (On a budget) I blew two out!

qnother question. I was wondering if a 240 or 260 front air dam would fit on a 280? I feel like im asking so many questions.

thanks!

i was wondering if the zxt's afm would work on my 78 280z?

thanks !

Will 240z rear strut braces fit on a 280z?

I tink the last time i checked my timing(few weeks ago). The timing was at about 3 or 4. It seems as if i dont have any more space to turn my distributor. is there any other way to adjust the timing?

Thanks for the help! I've been waiting a long time for a reply. so im in CA so it should be at 7 @ 700rpms. right!?. Thanks

got any pics on how they would look on the car and how wide are they?

ANY ONE?

I have a 78 FI 280z with the stock r200 3.545 rear, with the stock 4 speed. Only thing i'v done is put on an k&n cone filter. Im getting about 10 miles per gallon. What could be the cause? My injectors dont seem to b leaking. but like i said earlier, i have a vacuum leak, but i cant seem to find it, so not sure if it is a vacuum leak. And my timing might be about 4-5 degree advance. the timing mark under the hood shows 10 its at about 4 or 5 but i have no more room to turn the distributor to get to 10i can only turn it the other way.

Ok. Now im pretty sure that im getting around 10 miles a gallon or so. So what is there i can do to fix it. Again, I have a 78 280z fule injected. Seems like i have a vacuum leack, can that b a problem. but i cant seem to find the leak. My timing might b off, seems like i have no more room to turn the distributor to get the timming right. it say timing mark 10 under the hood"s lable. Help me out guys.!

Hi Guys, I jus checked my timing today and it was inbetween the 0 an 10 mark about 5 or so. do u guys know what the is the stock setting for timing on a 78 280z.

i should be able to get the thermostatic control at the same place also?

Im planning on purchasing an electric fan from kragan so i need to know what to get to install it and where to get it.?

well, im not really worried about smogging. so it be great if you guys can tell me what to remove and where they're located.

i'v heard that they're tryin to do dynos with smogs. to see if your power levels matches factory or close to . not sure. but i'v heard.

My car doesnt have a very steady idle. Somes times it will idle ok but then most of the time it idles pretty high. I jus recently found a very bad blow by hose and had it replaced. Now its idels jus fine right when i first start the car, then it jus goes up slowly. then for about the rest of the time it idles around 1300-1500rpms I've replace the intake portion that goes after the air flow meter with a good one. Replaced the bad vacuum hoses. but it still idles very unsteadily.can some one please help me out.

hi guys. Well, once again, i have another question. Ok. i want to remove my emission components, but dont really know where everything is located and things like what i need to cap off. can u guys link me to a site or give me instructions and pictures of how to do so. thank you!

the car runs fine. although i am finding that theres a lot needed to be fixed. and the rpms do not affect the voltage.

Hi guys, I dont know what my problem is but i was hoping you guys can tell me. my voltage meter isnt very steady and goes up and down alot. There were a few times where my car didnt even crank. when i turn the key to the on position, the voltage meter went all the way down. but then i checked my battery clamps and they were kinda lose then i tightened them and i haven had the starting problem yet. Im not sure if that was it, but my meter is still jumping around. Could it the VR or the resenator?

It was posted by one of the other members Vodkaboy It in the engine forum and is a thread called "87 octane fuel" started by xkiethx. But thanks for telling me guys.

Hey, is it really safe to put ATF in your gas tank to clean you engine internals. i read this on one of the other threads. does it really work. and how good does it work?
