    have a nearly new set of Corbeau Targa RS seats for sale. I bought them from a guy that put them in his Porsche for about 40 miles and realized he was too big for them. They are in like new condition. I was going to put them in my 240Z but have now decided to keep the original interior. They have been in my garage covered in plastic and stored in original box since I have had them. They are black in color and very comfortable. Lots of support. I also have two seat slider brackets for 240Z purchased from MSA. If you were to buy this setup you would be looking at $937.90 plus shipping and tax from MSA. First $600 takes all. Plus shipping. You can find the exact item in MSA catalog on page 41. Email me for questions markmagnus@cufunding.com

    Yes, I was talking about the outer tie-rods. Should they be tightend as far down as I can get on either side? It seem as though they are uneven. I guess that will be straitened in the allignment. Thanks Mark

    I just installed my new steering rack into my 70Z. When I went to thread on the tie-rods, I noticed that neither side would thread all the way to the end. The left side has about a quarter inch and the right side is showing about an inch of thread. Has anyone else experienced this. Could it be that I have the wrong tie-rods (purchased them on Ebay) for this rack. Please help.

    I am now in reassembly stage on front suspension. I have bolted the hub to the rotor and slid over center. When I put the bearings inside the hub, they dont go down low enough where there is enough thread for the castle nut. I drove the castle nut down with the impact gun, but that kept ther hub from turning. I think I might have the bearings in the wrong way. I first put in the flat ring with the tab on it then put the bearing with the rollers in with the wide end first. Is this correct? Please help Mark

    Thanks guys. Everytime I order form MSA there is always something they have to call me about, and they have the worst people working there. Absolutely no customer service. I ordered it form Victoria British. Same price without the tax and but a little more in shipping.

    I very rarely buy used parts for my Z, but cant seem to find the fan blade new. (if anyone knows let me know). When I do buy a used part, I always email the seller to get a good description and any other pix. His description was "bleach white" and "like new". When it showed up like a 30 year old fan usually looks, I was shocked. Lesson learned for me. I will sell if anyone wants. $20 plus shipping. I paid $50. Its definately not worth $50 but its clean enough to be worth $20 and it includes the clutch. Mark

    Does anyone have a picture of their hood spring and tension bar. I am trying to put them together and I dont remember how it came out nor do I have a good diagram to follow. If anyone can help me out that would be great. Been working on this for two days. Mark

    I just purchase and item from a guy that goes by ZXPARTS on Ebay and I want to warn you guys about him. He over exagerates the condition of stuff and when you get it you are stuck with it. I purchased a fan that he described as being "like new" and "bleach white". When I got it it was covered in dirt and discolored. I asked for a refund and his response was "look good to me, no refund" Then this Asshole leaves ME negative feedback. I hope you guys dont get ripped off like I did. Mark:mad:

    I am trying to replace the front shocks on my 70 Z. I have removed the complete shock housing and break assembly from the car. I took out the ball joint and steering knuckly but can figure out how to get the shock out of the "cylinder". Can anyone tell me what else I need to do to remove. Mark

    I believe all of the Red top Optima's are the same size. The problem I am running into is the bottom not fitting the shelf. too big.

    I just bought a red top optima battery for my 240Z and was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a custom made hold down for the Z with this battery I saw one on Ebay but lost the auction. Mark

    280zone, Why would you install trim before installing into window? Wouldnt it be easier to install once the window is in place? Mark
  23. mmagnus replied to mmagnus's post in a topic in Open Chit Chat

    I am reinstalling back hatch window with new seal. I put the seal around the glass first then tried to put in window frame. Wont fit. Has anyone done this before. Should I be installing the seal to the hatch then prying in the glass. What is the proper procedure? Thanks Mark
