Air Dams, Spoilers and Exhaust Fumes
you want to search for the leaks to fix the problem rather then try to work around it. usually it is the hatch seal, tailight seals, and the vinyl piece on the hatch, also check and replace if necessary, the rubber gromets in the spare tire well and the hatch also, plus the fuel tank vent line rubbers good luck

stumped
if he has a 240 that points are there. anyone of many previous owners or owner could have swapped them out. the first and most important thing is to verify whats working and whats not first and go from there. if you do have points i would definetly take a guess like the others have said and say that they are out or out of adjustment. they are a finiky little bunch. let us know what happens

exhaust noises
if you have a 240 you wouldnt have a cat converter so that would be out of the question. if its loose and or beating against the trans tunnel or rear suspension this is possible. it could be a number of things. raise that car up and take a look underneath and see whats going on

just when you think you've seen it all...

Ignition Upgrade
from the block up. meaning the adapter to the block and all. get at least a 45000 volt coil, remove your ballast resistor, you will no longer need it. you will have to switch to a 280 Z tach though i dont know about what you have down under. either that or a tach adapter from msd might work not sure on that one. besides that its really easy and will only take a few minutes to complete. good luck

carb intake manifold
and it will help your Z breathe better on a stock engine. no real power gains unless you have done some work to your engine. like said previously do a search it was discussed to some extent before.

what do you guys think?
i had a friend like that. he went checked out the car, then not only did he do the purchasing for me he kept it in his own garage, while his other car sat outside:o he gave the guy that i had bought the car from home, 35 minutes one way, helped me out making air cleaners for the carbs because there were none, didnt ask for a penny, helped me bleed the brakes with new fluid and also the clutch, and we did an oil change too for the trip. he picked me up, at the airport, and really didnt want anything but the cost of parking a measly 5 dollars. i gave him 25 bucks and he kind of acted like he didnt want it. after all was said and done before i left he even took me out to eat. i am forever indebted to him, because he did so much just for someone that he didnt know or ever meet, just another fellow Z lover. i told him the next time if im out his way dinners on me. it just goes to show you how nice some people are. his name is jeff priddy, and he is one of the nicest people i know. just had to let you all know.

just wanted to say thanks
i was looking at that one but it seemed to good to be true that the car was solid concidering where it was from
-
what do you guys think?
i couldnt get no one to look at it for me. some even posted that if i gave a few dollars like 50 or a 100 i might get some more repsonses. if i were going to pay that much id have a certified company do it. all i was asking was someone close to look at it, not someone to drive 20 miles to check it out drive it and all the lot. seems there arent that many that are willing to help theyre fellow Z brothers. i mean i would have given a little something, you know because nothing is for free, that and when i talked to the guy the second time some things had changed and he sounded indifferent, not to mention he was hurrying me off the phone. that made me decide to let that one go. im not in a rush nor will i be rushed into buying something. this green one though had lots of promise, hehe not to mention euro tail lights and panasports:devious:
-
what do you guys think?
whats wrong is the rear is out and it needs axles and a drive shaft, but hell as clean as it is and for a 1000 id take it. i called the guy though and he said he already had about 12 calls for the car and someone was supposed to be picking it up the next day:( if that wasnt the case i was going to buy a freinds 280ZX and use the engine and driveline off of that for that Z, but buy a tow dolly and drive the both of them home. i might have gotten lucky though if he wasnt busy and i could have did the work at his house. oh well win some lose some :tapemouth

anyone know what rebello does
if you notice in the first post they are saying that they will be using your E31 or E88 head to keep it looking original. so the P90 is out for that combo. maybe the rest is there but no P90.
