Shifter Lever Bushing P/N ??
Perfect, I’ve searched everywhere I know of with no luck. Is there a Carpartsmanul for ZX’s out there somewhere? Thanks for the information!

Hmmm, saw a post on AtlanticZ talking about that. Now where to find an older shift rod......

Shifter Lever Bushing P/N ??
Trying to locate the Nissan p/n for this shifter bushing. All I can find is the older style bushings for 70-78 transmissions. I have a FS5W71B close ratio from a ZX. Courtesy gave me a couple of p/n’s but we’re the older type bushings. I’ve got another order going to them and want to add the bushings. Appreciate the help!

"77 Z issues with KYB + VOGTLAND lowering springs
I found a set on eBay that are supposed to fit the 280 series. Another member here just put a set on his car. I assume you would want a progressive spring right?

"77 Z issues with KYB + VOGTLAND lowering springs
Has anyone had experience with the vogtland and eibach springs as a comparison on lowering a 280? Huge bumpers removed therefore riding even higher than stock. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

loose Distributor CAP = Perfect idle
Installing a pressure gauge between the filter and fuel rail is a great diagnostic tool for monitoring your delivery. Inexpensive and will provide diagnostic feedback for the fuel system. IMO

Do you have a fuel pressure gauge in series to monitor your pressure? I’ve scanned back through the post but did not see where you mentioned fuel pump pressure/activity etc.

Fabricated Sanden compressor bracket for driver's side
ZX brackets work well. The idler is a separate component but attaches to the bracket it’s an assembl. Much smaller than the dealer add-on that came on my 78. Just an option.

That’s great, glad that worked out for you. Probably won’t have the ZX booster for long😃

Restoration of BringaTrailer 240z - HLS30-35883
For the long runs “frame rails” etc. I used a small section of hangar wire to attach along the hose in order to reach back in to the area being treated. Also comes in handy to make those awkward bends that allow good access to different areas of the car.

The dimensions you posted earlier were wider which is odd. Thought the 240 boosters were smaller in size. One other thought. The 15/16 booster sold by Cardone on Amazon is New and not rebuilt. Read a lot of reviews on other sites when combined with the ZX booster the pedal feels more like stock where the wilwood was a much harder pedal. Just a thought here’s a pic of what I purchased. $65. Not trying to persuade you by any means. Just a few options out there. Curious to what you find when you get home.

Definitely 79-81, Bolt pattern 180 degrees out on 82-83. I purchased mine from Power Brake about 6 months ago.

You may have seen this on eBay already. If not I found this. Could be a good candidate for a rebuild.

Use some 400 grit Emory cloth. Need to get everything down to bare metal. Including inside the eyelet of the cable.

@Captain Obvious In Your spare time😀.Would you be kind enough to create a rough schematic of your relay install. Also curious on where you located the relays. I’m waiting on other parts to arrive so this would be a good time to go ahead and do the headlight relay upgrade. No Hurry of course!!

Should I Replace Clutch Master Cylinder?
Inexpensive to replace, Easy to get to with the booster out and your already under the dash side by side with the pedals. With it being dry the slave cylinder could be leaking as well. Pull back the dust cover and take a look.
