  1. WTB 280ZX Rear Taillight Panel sheet metal in good condition/straight. Please send me a PM. Located in WV bear Northern border
  2. Several oil leaks appeared fairly quickly around the classic areas of the new oil pan so I had to finally pull it after attempts to stop the leak had failed. Additionally I needed to "modify" the rear of the pan with a hammer as it was kissing the cross member. The job is generally a pain with a stock pan but with the additional size of the custom pan I was forced to pull out the front cross member to ease re-installation and it needed repainted anyway.

  3. Wow, it's been about a year without an update! The project (280ZX) is still ongoing and the 240Z is still on hold- and I have some pictures altough for various reasons I haven't been able to take/post as many as I would like. Brief update as of today (pictures in a future post) MS3 - Installed, Car has 700ish miles on it in the year that I rebuilt it Front end had to come out for an oil leak and "modification" of the DP racing fan to clear the steering rack mounts Rear End is out again, camber/caster issues & TTT rear end coil over install Installed the 240Z roll cage in the ZX because it was taking up to much room in the garage Upgraded Alternator (GM) for the new electric fans. Rewired a good chunk of the original harness/upgraded grounds and charging cables. The Following Pictures were taken in January of 2017: I replaced the CX racing Fans with PERMA COOL fans and had to cut the original fan shroud brackets. These fans barely fit, and required some rewiring and an upgraded alternator to give me some breathing room as the original was dying anyway. I did not take as many pictures of the fans while installing them as I would have liked but you will get the idea. http://www.doitinadatsun.com/yoak/2017/09/280zx-radiator-modificationnew-fans/
  4. I would be interested on a ZX as my transmission is going and I would rather upgrade
  5. Looking for a set of Oil pan (sandwich) brackets from a late model z
  6. Looking for a gauge cluster for a 280zx in decent condition, does not have to be in working condition. In case anyone is interested in why: I am using this to do some test fits for some aftermarket gauges fitment (specifically water/fuel as tach/speedo are fairly well documented). Depending on the results this will just be used so I can make a custom new face for the cluster similar to http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/84946-finally-installed-the-new-gauges/ Please send pm, thanks
  7. Tried to send you a message but it says you can't accept any new ones right now. If you can send me a PM
  8. Slightly out of sequence pictures again, but it was easier to show the process this way as I did not take many pictures of the CV install. The difference is a torsion out of a Subaru WRX STI (R180) Torsion type (3.54). The CV/Flanges are the Wolf Creek Racing kit, I was told when I did this I was the first person to try this in a 280ZX. The only difference was I had to use 240z bolts on one side and 280ZX on the other (wheel side) to make the new CV's work. The Exhaust is 3 inches all the way back. I am still trying to source a flange for the 280ZX Stock turbo so I can remove the cast piece. Pictures Taken May/August 2016 More Images: http://www.doitinadatsun.com/yoak/2016/09/280zx-exhaust-cv-axles/
