    The header gasket they send us had always worked fine for me. I fyou read up in threads, i have heard diffrent results but mostly positive. I just recommend cleaning the header flanges where it attaches very well to make sure its a perfectly flat fit. By the way if the intake and exhaust isn't offalready you might want to pick up new studs and bolts with the expectation of breakage.Good luck
  2. Wil , it would be great to have the setup describe to have a week and say 5 grand to make a 12 sec car from a stock 240z without changing motors, that would be neat
  3. well I my back and neck say brake booster but after just now getting the back bumper on from cleaning it my left hand says definately that bumper bolt
  4. Ok I just got done doing a brake booster last week and its a toss up between the top nut on the inside of the car on the right which only will let you turn it 1/4 to 1/8 a turn at a time :tapemouth or the damn passenger side bumper bolt next to the tank which has similar qualities. Anybody have any other favorites?
  5. helps if I put in the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7934103497&category=43955&sspagename=WDVW
  6. I know they are Ronals, but they aren't bad looking . Only thing is they are a bit narrow but still look nice and I bet nicer if they were redone. Hope someone here get them. Good Luck

    Have you pulled the fuse box and checked the back of it? Also track down the wiring that went to that capacitor. But it sound like he might have a line wire for an amp that might be laying around hot or maybe for some other device cb or such.
  8. I would recommend first buying the z therapy just su's video , because you have to assume some tuning might need to be done as well as a complete rebuild at worst. I would check ebay as well as zcar.com. But don't pay too much maybe 150 tops but keep your manifold as Carl says its the prefered set up. Good luck

    Sounds very much like an crossed exposed wire. Sounds like a long day of tracking down wires, did you happent o do anything recently that made it start up or was it just start out of nowhere? Also crazy question but is the ignition fully off?

    Paypal wouldn't cover it under their buyer protection?

    Hey all I am looking at a set of wheels and they are 4 on 4.5 and the size is 15x6 with a +10 offset. Any ideal how these might look and if would have any fitment issues? If anyone has anything similar to this size what tire might I be able to get on it without rubbing? I was thinking a 205/60 or maybe a 215 /55 . Wasn't sure. Thanks

    hello all, found this site in my great search for nice pedals for my 240z, I have been looking for a non universal kind , something that really made a nice touch instead of a statement of bad taste. Hope someone can use the info http://www.ultimatepedals.com/

    I have had assorted colors with my z's, I love the brg though i have not had the pleasure of owning one that color, mine have been white red yellow and silver, presently my 71 will be going from guards red <porsche color> to a brighter 2003 Ferrari Rosa Corsa , and I wish I had the money to make my 72 Lime green , but more green than the factory 112 color more like mopar sublime green. I researched alot and did alot of thinking , as should I stay stock color or also if I changed it what would I like for a long time , look in the gallery and see what strikes your fancy , good luck

    Thanks Ed , wasn't gonna get a header this soon but they have the coating for $75 <normally 149 >now til mid january one of the msa guys says and kinda motivating me

    They have a sale going on now on their Aerospace Thermal coating for headers, does anyone know if this is jet-hot or if not who does this for them? Also anyone have any feedback if they bought a header with this coating? Thanks Jeff

    you are correct Carl , same thought you just used the right term , very good point with the clutch arm and the pedal
  17. seerex replied to Alfadog's post in a topic in Open Chit Chat
    just a guess here but I thought it was too keep the tires cool , with more air in the tire it was able to reduce the heat easier than a tire that contained less overall air
  18. seerex replied to The Wingnut's post in a topic in Help Me !!
    if the car moves forward and the clutch pedal is pressed in, its not engaging fully and very well could cause the grinding
  19. I would have to say thats big possibility , if the throw out bearing was bad it would make a humming if the car was in neutral atleast thats the expierence I have had, I could be wrong about this but I don't ever recall switching clutch forks when putting in the 5 speed tranny, sounds like the car is engaged partially <in gear>weither the clutch depressed or not , I did have this issue before in a car and it was not the tranny or clutch but another part incorrectly installed

    always used NGK on my Z's as well as the honda , never had an issue with them
  24. I also wonder what exactly sorta speed are you trying to shift into first, I would only do that is you were very close to a complete stop like the speed you could push the car by yourself would be ok but like 4, 5 -10 mph is not gonna work , and 280z is correct as well about reverse , but the the best way is not to downshift to 1st til you are at a complete stop or damn close to it. Great ideal on the oil , i think I might change mine now
