thanks for the info! too bad its in that kind of shape

dumb question, but what does the black pearl mean? too bad it looks like he soaked it in salt water.

email sent. very interested.

hey guys, im looking for both of these cars for a little project im cooking up. For the 280z: it can be an auto or a manual, must have a straight frame dents/dings/ some rust ok for the 280zx: must be an 81-82 turbo (does not have to run) has to have a 5 speed (original) body/rust damage ok i dont want to travel too far for either of these cars, maybe 6 hours from portland oregon, until this summer when ill travel to most anywhere. if the same person has both these cars, that would be ideal, but definately not neccisary. Im looking to spend less than 2 grand for both these cars. I know that isnt a lot, but im not looking for mint cars, they dont even have to run. Also, they are pretty specific, but let me know what you have, we can talk. thanks my AIM name is: pdxvento jason

let us know how it turns out. im curious.

no no, thank you for the help! i was trying to find a car that had an LSD standard, and i found that some 300zxtt's did. i have to have an LSD, and i wanted to know if it fit and work. i have an LSD in my vento (pictured in my avtar), and i love it. so i guess my question is answered. thanks for your help!

great!. thanks a lot guys. i really apprciate it

wow i thought saem was like 4-5 grand. so those are two good brands...any others? thanks for the help!

im wondering what you guys think is the best engine management system for L series motors if you plan on making high horse power? ive heard AEM is good, but how good can a universal system be? if you could shed any light on this subject that would be great. thanks a ton jason

so it only helps? so a 300zx LSD which is an r200 3.70 will work well on an r200 that used to be a 3.54? thats what i wanted to know! thanks

Hey all, Ive been searching and searching about diff ratios, and all i can find is what each car has. my question that i couldn;t find the answer to is what happens if you put say a 3.70 differential into a transmission and engine that originally had a 3.54 diff, assuming they were both r200s? ive been told that any r200 differential will work on a tranny with an r200 originally, but what does the diff size have to do with anything? thanks for the help! jason

that answers a lot of the questions i had. thank you very much! i think that will hold me over for now

thats what i wanted to know! how are they different? just completely different designs that both happen to be 2.8Ls? are the 83 heads swappable with the 80-2s? and i have read about the f54 block being the best, i just was unsure that it was the same as the L28et engine. thanks for your help!

haha yea, the search on this board and hybridz.org is how ive learned this much . im looking at around 350-400, in a fully built turbo motor. i want to rebuild it, maybe stroke it to a 3.1, put a t3/t4 turbo, JE pistons, etc etc. money isnt really an issue, i was just wondering if i plan on replacing the turbo and internals anyways, would there be a difference between the two engines? thanks

which would you say is better? im guessing the L28et is better equipped for boost? thanks for the reply
