I know KONI makes brand new shocks for the 280zx, I don't know if they also make them for the S30 series? But they do for the S130. Does anyone know? (I got a nos set they are numbers 1801 and 1802 i believe)

Hi Mike, At first start up i now get the forums listing of all the different topics, then i go to "home" i get the "old" page of the new updates with the pictures. I prefer to directly go to the updates but not a problem to just click home and get where i want.. Thanks for this beautiful site, i'm in disability 100% so i'm in the free ride, thank you that it's still possible! (I practice my english here!! thanks!)

Yes, and you do this after you torqued that particular bolt.. not all at once on a sunny afternoon when you feel like painting them all at once haha.. But.. if you make a stripe, you can ALSO see what moved! 😉

What use has this "paintjob" ?? If the bolt has moved a 1/4 round.. no one could see that.. this totally misses the point of doing some paint on a bolt or nut.

Sorry if i sound a bit of a critic (a$$hole.. ) but i think you missed the resoning of the yellow paint on the bolts.. It needs to be just a little stripe of paint that indicates if a screw has come loose after some time.. not thowing a lot of paint on some screws..🙈 Just a stripe or a little blob.. It's function is that your sure you installed the bolt to specifications AND that you can see on a later inspection if anything has moved! I hope you can take my criticism.. lately more and more people 🙊 can't.. (I'm just here to learn some english and teach others some things in exchange. 😁)

I don't think you can just copy them out of stainless.. as there is some spring (Hardened?) steel In those anti-squeal shims.. (That's why they can rust a little bit) The anti-squael would not work..

Yes, it's bakelite.. sand some out of that hole in the ashtray, collect the material you sanded off and mix it with some polyester, use this to make the hole in the ashtray. Maybe you have something else made of black bakelite and use that to make the polyester black? Perhaps there is a kneadable substance that you can get black, or make with the bakelite. (I know of BISON has a kneadable 2 component material that gets very hard and is dark grey.

Did you also take the corners off of the pads in a 45 degree way? that stops most squealing..

Hahaha, perfect man you are.. in your own topic on page 37 I SAID: THIS : But your topic is now so damn big you don't know yourself what everybody said! I don't know .. but it sure makes ME Twitchy!! 😁 (Yeah i know it's only me that does not like pertronix under the hood! The only place for it is in the BIN!) Patcon and Mark Maras 2 But stop with this STUPID Behavior! It's very ANNOYING and it helps NO one!

Pertronix.. my Favorite Brand... to throw in the bin! (New and old..) But ... just my opinion so carry on..

Are you sure you sent that to the right person? 🤣 (just kidding!) About 8 years ago or so i forgot my username and typed martzedcars (as that is a name i use here in my country for mail) but it should have been the dutchzcarguy and now in one of my topic's about my 280zx is that name still visable.. what i mean to tell is.. it was years ago also possible to use another name. (Also i remember i read something about changing the username only once, so you have max 2 names.. that went out of the window when i saw "someone" here used a 3th name.. anyway.. things change over time i guess.. Or.. i think it has to do with the fact that he has moved to another country and has now another computer-adress. (IP-adress) and that makes it easy to change name(s).. )

She must have a BIG rack then! 🤣

When i see how the reactions are on S30.world parts you'll be happy i'm sure.

Last weekend i got a warning from bring a trailer that there are fals emails .. i did nothing the last 5 years with bat so i threw it away.. maybe they have a lot of problems with fake mails and stuff..

Changing your name on this topic/site isn't gonna help "Johnny" .. time after time people helped you and said the engine needs to come apart and then you ask questions in a different way but essentually the same questions.. the engine isn't gonna fix itself.. I don't want to gravel/irritate you.. but you need to listen to the advice! I'm not going to waste more time on this..
