I have some rust problems myself. How do you have to replacement the top half of your rear 1/4 panels? Do I have to cut them from another 240Z? Any advice would be great. It looks just a little worse now b/c I tried to fix it with some bondo and filler primer. (the bondo is cracking) Thanks. http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=6978&password=&sort=7&thecat=500 :sick: :sick: :tapemouth :dead: -
No problem, Bro

Try this website.... www.autoloc.com Or do a google.com search for "shaved door kits" You will not need a realy powerful popper. Z doors are not that heavy. Maybe a 50lb popper will do just fine. I am still doing some research on this. When I get my new door skins, I'm covering up the handle hole right away. Good luck:classic:

Hell yeah! That looks like a great drive. As others here in the States, I could not make it. :tapemouth Maybe if I was in Germany! (Rein Main or Ramstien) I would love to drift downhill on it. Have fun and take lots of photos!

I'm not much of a G-nose fan. That is why I'm trying to make my own front. Something that you can't buy from the Z store. Like my Avater I drew, Original in some ways, but I think if I brought the PIAA lights closer it would look better. Here is a bigger pic.

You guys are cool. I had Babblefish in the bookmarks and didn't know it until my wife said something. :stupid: I was going to put it in for everyone else. I got caught up with trying to figure out what they were saying and you guys beat me to it. I guess great minds think alike when they own Z's. I really like the Gunmetal/ Black rims that look just like the ones on Tak's AE86. They will be pretty expensive I see. These might have to be the very last thing I get because all the money I spend now will be going to the engine and restoring the car back from rust. (wife likes to play around with the faces)

Thanks for the help V12, I'll have to ask around and see if 5 lugs will be worth my time and money. (they sure as hell will up the kudos with the guys at work) Watanabe has a website right?

Thanks again Carl... sorry for the mixup. :bandit:

Try Victoria British. They have parts for all years. I will be getting some piston rings from them soon. Good luck

Has anyone seen this? http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=7065&password=&sort=7&thecat=500 I got this a long time ago and will have it in my car by winter. I would also like to know if this is right? Thanks
-
What is the difference between the two? I want 432 fender flares for sure, but there's a company that makes wide body panels that look pretty cool too. The rims in the sketch are Vision Hi-Revs. They were the closest thing I could get to 114.3 in Import Tuner magazine. How good do you think the 5-lug conversion is?

I will have to change it next month. I have already used my money on brakes, slave cylinder and gear oil. Did you say that the one man bleeder was $5? I'll have to get one of those, also. Thanks again Bambikiller240 :classic:
-
I was just on MSA's website, looking at some new parts. Came across the cylinders. Wanted to see how much they where selling their slave cylinders for. The post said to replace the Master Cylinder and the Slave at the same time. It is bothering me that I should have changed the Master also. It works just fine though. Do I have anything to worry about? Thanks

240Z with the 2.8 liter 280Z or ZX engine, P79 head, and SU carbs. Even though the engine is tired, she will still blow the doors off a Honda/ Acura.

Does anyone know if these come in 114.3?

Ft. Walton Beach, Baby! I know a guy who helps me a lot. His name is Mike. Would you like his number/ fax?

Well, I have been driving her around to "break it in" and it seems to feel the same to me. I figure that if something goes wrong with it, I want it to happen closer to home insted of 12 miles away trying to get to work. Besides, while I am building the other engine (2.8L), I can still drive the car around. I just have to keep myself from outdoing those Honda boys for now. Thanks

The first day I got her. She had to be towed. -

You could buy an MSD 6AL ignition modual (or is it 6A?) . One of them has a "rev limiter" built in. I'm buying the 6AL and putting it on my rebuilt L28 sitting in my den. I have it down to the block, just need to get off my butt and get it milled, port and polished, and bored to a 3.1 stroker. Still tossing the idea around about getting the Jim Cook supercharger. Don't know yet. Good luck with the LS1 swap CabelSrv and welcome to the Z family. :classic:

You are an oasis of knowlage Bambikiller240. Thanks for all the help. :classic:

The guy who owns this beautiful piece of work had a lot of time on his hands. He made his exhaust manifold himself. a lot of hours went into it and he got it right the first time. I think he said that they were Garrett T3 turbos. He was expecting around 500hp. To have someone do this in the US would run about $5,000 just for the manifold. (if you could find a person willing enough to even try) I coulden't, so I am just going to build my bottom end to a 3.1 stroker and MSD Ignition modual for the spark. Might give me about 230hp. I don't know yet, but this Twin Turbo beauty is now a dream considering all the work and money that would have to go into it. Good luck -
No, you read it right. The car would not go into 1st gear when I was stopped at the light. So, I had to "pump" the clutch for it to engage. The parts I was talking about where for internal transmission stuff. Should I drain the gear fluid from the trans and put new stuff in? Where is the drain plug and filler plugs located on the trans? (so many questions) Thanks

I planned to go one weekend last month. They have atleast one a month on Pensacola NAS. Not sure which one though. There are 3 of them. I put the tape on when I was about to go, then I had the problem with the slave cylinder. Keept the tape on because it looks really cool. Thanks for the comment. -
Spending time with the Lady. Wife took pictures. She supports my expensive hobby.
