  1. I forgot to ask if you could PM me contact info as well.
  2. Actually, in my Nissan Service Manual, it says this under the Trouble Diagnoses part for the Headlights: CONDITION: Headlamps do not come on either high or low beams. PROBABLE CAUSE: 1. Burnt fusible link. CHECKED, ALL GOOD. 2. Loose connection or open circuit. CHECKED ALL HARNESS CONNECTIONS AND CIRCUITS FOR CONTINUITY - ALL GOOD. 3. Faulty Lighting switch. CHECKED AND ALL CONTACTS & CONNECTIONS ARE GOOD. 4. Faulty Headlamp Sensor. DON'T HAVE A WAY TO CHECK IT. So I'm gonna try and get one form the local wrecker and I'll see how that goes.
  3. I'd be interested in a set if they will fit a 280ZX. The tail lenses are different than that of a 240 or 260, however, I HAVE seen this style of tail lens used on the '79 - '80 280Zs. I've attached some photos of what they look like. Whaddya think?
  4. Sorry, I forgot to add that one in too. Checked and all of my grounds are good.
  5. Alrighty, UPDATE. I've checked the switch, the connector that connects the switch to the main harness, and the headlight relay, all to no avail. I don't know what the deuce is goin on but the next thing Ima do is check the wire that connects from the fusible link for the headlights to the fuse box. If anyone has any other ideas what it might be, I'd really appreciate it.
  6. I did check the relay (I actually checked all 3 just in case) and they're good. I'll check the connection today though, and see if that's it. But if the contact was burnt, wouldn't the lights flicker, or dim when they were on?
  7. Ok, so as the title says, I gotta headlight issue with my '81 N/A 2+2 and wanted to know what you guys think it might be. When I go to turn on my lights, the running lights will turn on but when I turn the switch to headlights, they won't come on. When I flip the switch back and forth from running lights to headlights, they will sometimes come on, and when they do, they will stay on until I turn them off. Also, when they DO turn on, they don't flicker, nor do they dim or anything. I've checked and cleaned the connections in the combination switch, I also checked the fuses, all to no avail. Also, now after a few days, they no longer come on at all. I've been looking through my Nissan service manual, and I think the problem might be the Headlamp Sensor, which is located right in front of the relay box in the engine bay. But unfortunately there's no info about what this "Headlamp Sensor" is, or what it does exactly. Can you guys help? Thankx a lot!
  8. I ALSO forgot to mention that it's Non Turbo also. Sorry.
  9. LOL Sorry, I forgot to mention my car info. I have an N/A '81 280ZX 2+2 GL with a custom fuel rail, a universal Aeromotive FPR, stock injectors, and SS fuel lines.
  10. Hey guys. I'm in need of a new fuel pump, and I'm wondering which brand you think is the best in terms of price, quality, warranty, etc. If you could help me out, I'd appreciate it! Thankx.
  11. I'm wanting to swap my tranny for a Borg Warner T5 but I need know if a T5 from an '83 280ZXT would fit my '81 N/A 280ZX 2+2? I know that the flywheel size is the same for a 2+2 and a turbo, but I'm not sure If the driveshaft from my car would fit the T5. If you guys could help me with this, I'd REALLY appreciate it. Thankx :mrgreen:
  12. Thankx guys. As an update to my previous questions about the inner door "fuzzies", I got the answer I needed when I mounted the panels onto the doors. With the panels carpeted, you can't put the inner door chrome trim on because it interferes with the windoiws rolling up and down. However, the GOOD thing about not installing them on a carpeted panel is that the carpet itself acts as a inner door "fuzzy" trim, lining up with the window perfectly, and also giving the panel a more "streamlined" look. Again, THANKX A LOT for all of the help and input guys!!!!!!!
  13. Hey guys, I FINALLY finished my door panels. Werll, I told ya I'd take some pics when I got done, so here they are. These were taken after I made the holes for my speakers and reinforced the door where the fiber board is riveted onto the metal hanger. And these are the finished products. I carpeted them after I fiberglassed because I felt that it went better with the rest of the interior of my car rather than using bondo and painting them smooth. ENJOY!!!
  14. Not yet, but when I get 'em finished I take a few and post them.
  15. I emailed zcarsource.com to see if they had any for the 2+2 and the guy said they did, but it's not listed on the site so you might have to email 'em too if you want those.
