Looking for some springs to lower and stiffen up my 280z. Used or new is fine. I have PayPal.

Looks good dude! I was thinking about plasti-dipping my chrome too. How did you do the hatch button? Or did you leave that alone?

I have one which is +1mm overbored and decked, ready to be built up. Its been painted a bright yellow (What possessed me to do that?) and has freeze plugs installed. I'm a little drive away but I'm open to offers.

Got what I needed, thanks again everyone!

Right now I have a sale pending. I really appreciate all of the replies and offers guys!

Thanks, I saw this on ebay, I dont need all the stuff attached which is driving up the price. I guess if I cant find anything else I will go that route. I used to have a bunch of these things sitting around too. $45 seems a bit steep to me. Thanks anyway Jamal!

Hi all, Looking for a shift lever to use with my 72 4-speed transmission. I have the bushings, pin and knob on order so those aren't important to me. Just any compatible Z lever (with the little circular bushings) is what I need. My local pick-n-pull is hurting at the moment. Name your shipped price to 95630, I can Paypal you right away. Thanks!

Hi guys, I'm looking for an l28 thermostat housing (only need the bottom half but will buy both) that doesn't have any frozen bolts. Thanks!

After some more research and knocking the info in my head, it looks like .040" over is all I would need right?

Hey guys, so about a year ago I had a set of forged Ross pistons from MSA that I was going to put into my turbo block. Basically, everything was ready to go, my block had been machined and prepared, I just had to file my rings down to spec and drop those sexy pieces of forged goodness into their 87mm homes. The only issue was, 6 months prior I left for the Army. When I came back home I lost interest in spending money on Z's, (I know.. blasphemy ) so I sold them and kept the block just in case. My problem now lies with being bit by the bug once more and trying to locate pistons that will fit my needs as I can't justify spending that much money on premium forged ones like before. I feel my power goals are too modest (sub 300hp) to fork out 800 bucks alone on those a second time. I've searched the forums and the web alike but I am still not sure what pistons from other vehicles or makes will work for my application. Basically, I want anything that is quality and will fit my 87mm bore. Cast pistons are fine, I just want quality. Any recommendations because I cant find anything that I know will work due to my ignorance on the subject. Should I just go to 89mm and use the KA pistons that are common in the 3.1L builds? How can I tell if a piston is compatible with the l28 Rods? Thanks guys, sorry for the noobness... Ive been on here to long for this nonsense on my part

I am interested. Shoot me a PM with how much you are looking to get for it. I'm looking for something I can rebuild myself to keep the cost factor down but I really appreciate it, my fault for not specifying. Are you flexible on the price? Hydro lifters or solid? Cam and all?

Looking for a P90 Head in good rebuildible condition, cam and all. Thanks guys!

Yeah, its an L28ET for sure... No other revision of the L28 comes with a kitten

The driver ....... Ok sorry that was mean

That interior alone just makes me want to quit trying (just kidding). This is just nuts.

Haha nice plugging your business there John. I'm glad you mentioned that you do sell these kits. I will be buying mine from you instead in the near future. I would rather buy it from somebody reputable like yourself than somebody on eBay.

So whats the general thought about this spring/shock combo? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissan-74-75-78-76-260Z-280Z-Tokico-ILK-Suspension-Kit_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp3286Q2em20Q2el1116QQitemZ230291492526 Seems like a good deal to me, keep in mind I have a limited amount of experience in this subject.

500hp? I wouldn't take any chances. Do the measurements and see what you get. Otherwise you are going to be hating life after putting all that money into strengthening up the body, not to mention the amount of time you will be putting into it. Biggest and most overlooked rule with doing any quality work , "Don't rush yourself". Good luck

You cannot sell that car! Nobody will treat it as well as you do. The originality of you car shows you know what you are doing. If you buy some other car it just looks like you are some spoiled rich kid. You have and amazing Z (which I assume gets the ladies) dont let it go.

I would agree, I think 300whp would be less complicated and cheaper on a turbo L28. By less complicated I mean stock crank, rods etc. You would be surprised how much you will get ripped on just the LD28 crank alone. I think the strokers are very impressive however. Just my oppinion though.

Changing the oil hot is a much better idea. It will get all of the gunk off the sides of the oil pan/crankcase. If you let the engine sit some deposits can form and will not drain out with the cold oil.

Did you try a search? I think you would be defeating the purpose of the flares. Im going to set aside the honda civic jokes for this one.

now thats lookin good!
