  1. So, my car is done. Its running beautifully, but now I have a NEW issue which Ive never experienced before! The Fuel pump wont turn on RANDOMLY, and along with it, neither will the Zeitronix wide band, or the Brake light for the hand brake.. So randomly ill go to the car, put the key in the ON position, and no fuel pump priming, no fuel pressure, but sometimes it decided to work perfectly.. then if I drive it will randomly shut down??? and the fuel pump wont turn back on maybe 20minutes later all of sudden put the key in the ON position, and the Fuel pump turns on, the Zeitronix working, and the car runs right up.. What could this be?? Please help with any ideas.. thank you! Do you guys think it could be my Ignition Key?? maybe I need to replace the whole Ignition Key or the wiring behind it and the steering wheel?? We used the prod and if put power to one of the certain fuses the fuel pump and the wide band and everything start right up, if we take the prod away from the fuse then it shuts right off.. thanks for your time guys.
  2. 240mm flywheel, coilovers, LSx Coil Pack, f54block, seats, wheels, LSx coil packs are important, so are the coilovers and the 240mm flywheel.. Wheels, I want 16inch rims that are deep dish, and wide.. and ZG flares I need a f54 block that is not abused, ready to put in and make some serious power, but not expensive.. Seats, Ide like bucket type seats, possibly from the new Acura RSx those are nice.. coilovers, already put together, or ground controls / camber plates..
  3. okay so Im kind of figuring this stuff out, I believe the z31 clutch will fit, but I need a 240mm flywheel in order to make this work right? now a 240mm flywheel would fit my n42 block right? then I can use the z31 clutch?
  4. i have a 240sx tranny swap, and I have a n42 block *turbo setup* with a 225mm clutch right now, I can buy a 240mm z31 ACT clutch for $80 which I rally want to do! will the z31 clutch fit? if I buy a 240mm flywheel?
  5. http://www.andysautosport.com/nissan/1984_1989_300zx/transmission/clutch_kits/act/actp00062305.html this is what the clutch looks like, and the only clutch I can find for the model and year so Im guessing that the 240mm is correct. hey, I also found this. it says it fits a 280zx, but does that mean it Wont fit a n42 block which is from a 76 280z? since I have the 240sx tranny? http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/PCC08/21-2274 it says, "Model Guide: 240mm Datsun 280ZX, Nissan 300ZX Model Restrictions: Fits all 79-83 280ZX 2+2, all 81-83 280ZX Turbo, and all 84-89 300ZX Non Turbo. Code Guide: Datsun S130, Nissan Z31 Year Guide: 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989 " hey I also found this.. The second strongest Z31 manual transmission is the FS5W71C found in any 5 speed non turbo Z31. This transmission is internally the same as the transmission used in the 240SX, 180SX, Silvia, etc. A few people who have blown up their FS5R90As have swapped to the Z31's FS5W71C transmission and not had problems. A lot of 240SX owners have the 240SX version of this transmission mated to their SR20DETs and KA24DETs running 400+ hp with no problems. Any short throw shifter made for the 240SX (S12, S13, S14, S15) will fit perfectly in this transmission. does that mean go for it, the clutch will fit?
  6. all i know So far is its a (84-89)ACT 300zx clutch I googled that clutch and I can Only find an ACT z31 clutch for that year as a 240mm clutch.. so Im guessing thats what Im looking at buying, would that fit? it was really easy cus I bought the car with the 240sx tranny swap, when that tranny blew I just bought another 240sx tranny and swapped the bellhousing, the custom driveshaft and ujoints were already there.. all I know right now is its a z31 clutch Im waiting to hear back which model and type of z31 clutch it is, (turbo, mm etc.)
  7. so I can buy a very Nice z31 ACT clutch for $80, and I was wondering, with my current setup, turbo built engine, I have a 240sx transmission swap with a n42 block.. can I use this z31 clutch?? or is it out of the question?
  8. http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/pts/2290628029.html these guys are selling there ground control coil overs in my city for 4300, already setup! do you think these will work on my 76 280z?? can I still weld them to work or no? I know people use the integra coil overs so I thought this was worth a shot to ask.. thanks!
  9. ps. and its the oil cooler sandwich adapter (the oil filter adapter sandwich) I already have all the hoses and AN fittings etc. just lost the o ring so I want to buy a new one.. heres the one Im talking about.. http://www.glowshiftdirect.com/oil-cooler-sandwich-adapter-18-mm-15-thread.aspx
  10. the thing is, I already have an adapter sandwich from a 280zx but the O-ring on inside is lost so I figured I would just buy a new one. im going to send PMS right now thanks guys do you guys know the thread size I need? i found one online in billet blue for $40 just wondering which size I need tho..
  11. Ive ben researching my ignition system options.. so far, I was thinking of buying LS1 coils, and doing a COP setup, setup With my MSD6a and my haltech e11v2, I ran into these Pencil Coils from AEM, and I was wondering after all the reading I am doing, is this compatible? Or do I need a AEM CDI ignition? For some reason I dont think Just the MSD6a box alone will be sufficient for my build as far as Helping to prevent detonation, so I want a Strong spark setup.. so the LS1 coils with my MSD6a box seem Very good idea at the moment any help with this please dont hesitate
  12. yes, I was told by Haltech since I have the change to Flat top pistons, a new spring pressure, and a slightly bigger bore on the cylinders he doesnt recommend I drive the car until it is re tuned.. now, when I take the car to get tuned, Im going to ask for a Mild tune not for performance, but for reliability, Im not concerned with power, I want her to be dependable as a daily driver.. Now, one thing I have been trying to figure out, with my build n42 .30bored block, flat top pistons, p90head with a NA cam and a regular felpro gasket, what would my compression ratio be? now, my timing is set at 20 after, do you guys recommend that be changed during the re tune? also, with this compression ratio do I have anything to worry about, or once the car is running do you think its safe to drive 7 miles to the tuners as long as I dont boost? I rather not call a tow truck, however I dont want to blow this engine so if its the best safest thing to do (which I have a feeling it is) I will do that... The MSD is just a coil driver, I dont believe its setup with my timing. Also, I would like to raise my RPM limit when I get a tune, what do you guys think about this? Oh, also I do have a 6psi spring I bought as well, do you guys think 9psi is okay or should I put the 6psi spring in?
  13. n42 .30 bored block with p90 head with a NA cam with flat top pistons running a standard felpro head gasket, what is the compression ratio? its a turbo engine Im trying to get tuned in these next couple days..
  14. yes! I need a 280zx oil cooler adapter sandwich right away pleeeeeease!
  15. Ive been Google this recently, cant get a definite answer, but one forum a guy said he has a friend who has the haltech and the tech II but Im pretty sure he meant installed at different times.. so my question is, I have a haltech e11v2, is there any use for the tec II?? or is it only one or the other cant run both at the same time? thanks! I dont really understand if tecII is just an ignition system like MSD but much better and Not a CDI ignition or if its a ECU.. that why my question may seem stupid to you guys
