    Thanks everyone for all your inputs. I’m not super admit about the number of owners. Just something I was thinking about and didn’t know if there was an easy way to find out but does sound like it. No worries at the end of the day I’m just glad to own one of these awesome cars!

    Dang I was afraid it would be something like that and “asking” the DMV to do anything . As far as I know the car was originally from NY seeing how that’s where I bought it from and it’s been in TX for 20 years. Thanks for the info, I just was wondering what number owner I am.

    Hey everyone, I’ve been trying to find out how many people have owned my Z before me and it seems to be more difficult due to the S30’s only having an 11 digit vin. Just wanted to see if there was a way to find out what number owner I am. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Hello 240ziggy, I’m in the process of doing the same thing. I have a 77 280z that didn’t come with A/C and have been tracking down all the parts. eBay has been very helpful because I wanted to go with stock inside the cabin. I ordered this kit for everything else under the hood and it looks good. Just need to get started on the installation now! Hope that helps! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Hey Roberts280z I see you are in Houston. I’m up in Conroe just wondered how far away you are. I have a 77 280z and I’m lookin into installing A/C on mine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Hey everyone, I’ve just about tracked down all the parts I need but I am having trouble finding new vacuum lines for the vacuum system. Does anyone know where I can find them? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Dang that looks good! I want to do that to mine, did you just drop it off at the powder coat shop to get that done? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Dang that sucks to hear. Thanks for the info! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. Thank you Texasz! I will defiantly look into that for sure. I have heard good things about the z shop in Austin, might be worth sending it over there. Thanks again for the info! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Hey everyone, I’m looking for someone near me (I’m in Conroe TX) to get some work done on my 77 280z. As I’m sure y’all are like me when it comes to your Z, you don’t want just anyone working on it. I’m basically looking to have A/C installed. I’ve finally tracked down all the parts, factory inside all new under the hood. Thanks for any recommendations! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Hello everyone, I had a question for y’all. I’m in the process of adding air conditioning to my 77 to 280Z (did not come with air unfortunately) I have tracked down all the dash components for a factory set up and going to go after market under the hood. With that being said my question is for the fan blower upgrade is do you still have to have the resister for the upgrade? I have an a/c and sub harness and according to the FSM you also need to change out the resister when adding a/c. But if I do the blower upgrade is that still required or does the new blower come with it? Does that make sense I know it’s kind of confusing. Here’s a pictures from the FSM about changing the resistor. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Thanks for all the information, it has defiantly help me understand how all this works together and I had no idea about the sub harness! Now I just need to track down a resister and I’ll be good to go! Thanks again! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Ok thanks for the info that’s a big help being able to see it. I herd if I went with the blower upgrade it came with the correct resister so I wouldn’t need one, just what I heard. So currently I have everything for the dash except for the A/C sub harness so my next question is are you selling that one [emoji23]?? If I understand correctly if I want to use the 4 speed switch that comes on the a/c face plate then I need to also switch the resister out as well but if not then it will still work with the 3 speed one just won’t have the extra speed, is that right? Regardless I do need the sub harness to make it work right? Thanks for the help! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Thanks Captain Obvious, I also wanted to ask if I do a blower upgrade either with a Honda or a Kia would the resister and or sub harness be needed? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
