The steering coupler is mine. Had to replace the old rubber one with the urithane one from Victoria British. Spent about 3 hours on it because I had put it back together wrong! :stupid: :stupid:

I take it back about the wires! Tonight I noticed the car was running really sluggish. I don't remember if it was this post or not, but someone said that the Taylor wires he was using were "shorting out" to his cylinder head. I decided to check it out on mine. It was doing the same thing. I could see the blue sparks were the wire boots meet to the plugs. So, I was woundering what the part numbers for the MSD, NGK and Magnacore wires were. Thanks

I like the R34 Nur V-Spec II. My altime favorite is the Skyline 2000. I like the oil cooler on the front of the car (not for street use, I supose ).

Thanks Tommo, hopefully it is only the front end needing new bushings!

Sorry for the loss, man. I just recently got some tail lights off e-bay about a week and a half ago. Might have got me also! :tapemouth :tapemouth

Thanks a lot Phred, I would not know where to start without the help of you guys. My only problem is the previous owner pulled it himself. So, I don't think he might have numbered the rockers. I'll have to play around with it when I get to it. Thanks again! :nervous:

Tommo560, Did your Z have a bad vibration at highway speed? My Z (Jennie) has the L28 engine also, I thought the vibration was from the suspension in the front. You think that my engine might be the same way as yours was? I have to pull that engine (for the turbo I am installing), but anyway, do you think I should look into that? BTW, what year of BMW did you get the harmonic balancer from?

I have a question about the tower shims. The head that I have for my second Z is a E88. The towers and the cam were pulled from the head and the guy said that he forgot where or how many shims each of the towers had. The head was rebuilt at the local shop. If I take the rest of the parts (lifters, lashpads, towers, shims, and cam) to them, you would think they would be able to put it back on? I guess all I can do is take it on Monday and ask? I would hope it is as simple as you guys say it is. :stupid:

I am still trying to make up my mind, also! It is a toss up between the Yellow and the Two-tone Gray with a Skyline 2000 racing stripe down the middle. http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=12920&sort=1&cat=500&page=1 Yellow http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=12946&sort=1&cat=500&page=1 Two-tone Good luck!

Thanks man. I will have to do some homework on this.

I use Taylor 8.0mm in conjunction with NGK plugs (#BPR6ES). No problems with them. Want to put a MSD 6A ignition controller on this turbo motor. Will it work?
