280z1979

bump

well the thing is I am a 4th year mechanical engineering student in auckland uni. The amount of uni project work is really overloading me. I do not think I will have time to finish off this car before my parents come to visit me from states. (you know, they wont stop nagging) so I think maybe I should let someone who have enough time for this babe. this is really good runner, power steering, electric windows and all that. I enjoy driving this car.

hi guys I am begining a 1979 280z project and I am pretty sad that there aint many places with good info on scoring rubber and plastic trims for the interior. I am also looking for the metal peices around the window and windscreen. You guys have any info on this?

I live in Auckland NZ so use cm will be fine. I saw this photo in your gallery. I am wondering the suspension spec of yours what brand are they? easy to get from australasia?

hey mate, I just got this 1979 280z 2 days ago. now thinking of a SR20 or RB25 conversion. I am just wondering, what is the spec for the engine mount and transmission cross member to get the shifter in right position. What sort of suspension and brake setup are you having? do you use nw brake cylinders and booster? love your work, am thinking of getting my babe blasted first

I am living in New Zealand, somewhere in Southen hemisphere, next to Australia. We dont have many people doing the seat restore so I decide to tackle the tasks on my own. Thanks for the links but I really do need some technical info so I can perform the restoration on my own here. Thanks again and I am looking forward to see your articles

Thank you very much I will be checking it. Do you know where I can find information on restore/refresh car seats by DIY? I just bought this 1979 280z and the interior is horrible

I cant seem to find your article in the tech section Please, I am in need of those information
