  1. Larry, I drew an arrow to the location of the nut we're discussing. Chris
  2. Edited your picture.
  3. Luke, I'm your father! Might I suggest heating up the nut with a torch then trying your impact gun again. I have used this trick on many a stuck nut. Much luck to you, Chris
  4. Here's a so-so link. http://www.midsouthvw.com/TechTips/GasTank.htm Chris

    Thanks for that information Alan. Very nice. Can you tell us about the emblem that is centered in the grille? Chris

    Hi Ed, Using a Grote 44530 flasher, I hooked the positive side of a 12 volt battery to one of the leads on a test bulb. The other bulb lead went to the X terminal on the flasher. Then a wire from the L terminal on the flasher goes to the negative side of the battery. The lamp flashed. Hopefully your flasher is marked like mine was. I can only assume this would work for you. Good luck, Chris

    Bill, Bill, Bill, you'd think having the fastest car in your town, you'd be more careful. Chris

    Here's a picture of Bill Ramsey's 72 which has the 75 280Z seats. It used to be my car. You can clearly see the velour material in the picture. Those seats were original to that 280Z. Not arguing with anyone, just making it clear that apparently there was some differences in 280Z seats. http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=13119&sort=1&cat=500&page=2 Chris
  14. I checked this site and he said Z22E also. So maybe he and I are both wrong. He owned one, although he was 16. http://www.v6-s12.com/History.htm Chris

    Hey Robb, welcome to the group and again, nice car! About your seats, I think those could be original. I pulled a set from a 75 280Z a few years back and they had a velour type material on them. Not to say yours weren't "recovered" but originally I think the 280Z was a little more plush. Some of the other members here will have a definite answer about that. Enjoy your car! Chris
  16. I'm not sure on this but I believe the "NAPS Z" engine is what you're after. It was in some 200SX models in the 80's. Around 82-83 I think. Was called a Z22E if I recall correctly. Good Luck, Chris
  17. Hi All, Be leery of stores/shops all of a sudden gouging people for R134a. Apparently there has been a shakeup with some of the manufacturers. I can't back any of this up but I heard that there is only one company in the states that now makes it. Which has led to the massive price increase. I sell 30 pound jugs at my shop. Last weeks price was $240, this weeks price is $380. I'm not sure about the one pound cans but I would assume the price for that will skyrocket as well. FWIW, Chris

  19. My Z stays in her garage for winter. She comes out when its nice and dry. She's never been in the rain since I've owned her. Those lucky warm states get to enjoy them year round!! Chris

    Thanks Chris, Much appreciated. I wondered what the "ARRC" stood for. I'm surprised it didn't say "SCCA Champ". Then it would have been no mystery for me. ChrisA

    Hi All, I won two of these on eBay last year. Anyone have any history/information about them? Thanks, Chris

    The old 72 I had (now Bill's) runs a 280ZX dizzy fired with a Accel HEI module. My 73 is MSD 6AL'd with Blaster 2 coil. Dizzy is single point but I'm looking toward Mallory or another ZX dizzy. Chris

    Ummm.......okay! Sounds like an idea to bring up to my local Z club. We'd have to put up with non S30 cars though. A bunch of Z nuts and their cars at my house would be awesome. My neighbors would finally understand the meaning on my license plates. "Z CRAZY" Chris
