Im interested too. Sounds like a good deal.

for those prices, I am tempted to totally disassemble my z and start selling parts. the whole does not seem to be greater than the sum of its parts. $630 for tail light lenses!? WOW.

Connecting speakers in series increases resistance. Two eights = 16 ohms. Connecting speaker in parallel decreases resistance. Two eights = 4 ohms. Power is inversely related to resistance so the parallel speakers will be louder, but you may blow them too.

Can someone post a picture or describe where the air pump goes? I am not sure that I have one. I have a port (I think) on my intake manifold that I just leave unplugged. Maybe thats where the air pump used to be? I always wondered what connected to that (vaccuum?) fitting.

Get a hammer man.. just bang that thang on.

I am having the same problem. My brakes don't seem to work very well unless I pump them. If I pump too much, every thing locks up (so I have to be careful). When I am idling I can press the brake pedal and watch the tach go from 1100 to 1700. The hissing starts when I press the brake pedal. I have totally new front and rear brakes. I have bled and bled and bled. Until this moring, the brakes were working fabulously. Do you think that the master vac is gone? Could it possibly just be a vaccuum leak somewhere? I am REALLY getting frustrated with the mechanics of this car. I rebuilt everything (engine, suspension, brakes) and now its BODY and interior time. Yet.. new mechanical things keep popping up. ARRRRRRRRRRRRRR. :sick: Should I just replace every auxillary component under the hood?! Excuse me while I go kick my Z in the pants. :disappoin

gogriz, its four bolts to get the motor out, but you have to disconnect the wipers - another few bolts. I just cut open the plastic bag. I couldnt figure out how to open it without ripping. Everything was fused together over time. Once open, everything in the bag looked brand new. You have to be a contortionist to get the whole thing out, but once out, you can put the wiper pegs into a vice and beat them until they loosen up. I kept working mine and adding grease until they moved effortlessly. Since I cut the waterproof bag on the bottom, i just put it back in the car as is.

I wanted a thumbail displayed. But hereyago.

All brake systems are working, the engine runs great! I had to rebuild the wiper moter and linkages. It turned out that the linkage was just too rusty to move. I took the motor apart and sanded the rotor nice and shiny. It had burned in a couple of spots because it could not turn due to the rusted linkage. I broke the rust and greased everything real good. Now I can drive in the rain! So.. I'm driving in the rain on the interstate. The flow of traffic is 75 to 80 mph. So Im going with the flow. The car dies - like it runs out of gas. As I am pulling off the side of the road, the engine revs back up! This happens several more times. THEN then engine starts whining like a jet engine. O CRAP!! The car drives fine in the 50-60 mph range, so I make it back home. I replace the fuel filter, and a couple of fuel lines. The line that goes from the tank to the gas cap had a small hole in it. I guess that explains the gas on the ground when I fill up. I thought I was just over filling. I cut the fuel filter open and it looks like it its FULL of wet coffee grounds. The filter was about 1/3 full of this gunk. No wonder I get no fuel flow. I suspect that it is rust, but I coated the tank 8 years ago. I guess the coatings don't last. The whining turned out to be a frayed alternator belt. All is well, but the car looks like crap. I need to do some rust work. Then paint. I wish I knew how to weld. I like black, red, blue and the car happens to be all of those colors right now. Its also orange, green, and two colors of primer. Its a work of art. Maybe I should just clear coat it and move on. What do you think? Well.. I tried to post a picture... see my gallery.
