  1. yo hayaiz, what comes with this motor? turbo, tranny, included? i live in SoCal. if you still got it, i will plan a roadtrip next week to go up there and get it.

  2. So, this is just a miscellaneous update. I took off one of the SUs today and found that the piston was really gummed up! o.o; It had to be like dirty oil or something. It was gross >.< But at least I know why it wasn't starting when I was playing with it a few months ago! The carbs weren't opening! xD I'm gonna take them all the way apart for fun today, just so I can have the experience. Probably be up for sale later too! Once they're clean and such.
  3. Wow~ I wish my Camry got that mpg right now! Especially since it's supposed to be some economy car! >.< I get 300mi to 15gal... that's terrible! I have to fill up twice a week! So I'm hoping to have a really gunner when he's done! Power and efficiency, aren't the Zs all that and a bag o' chips!
  4. Yay! I knew this place would be awesome! ~_^ That's what I was concerned about, since I have an hour commute to school! @_@;;; I need the best gas mileage I can get! I also read that some of the guys here running on Megasquirt are getting 25+ so maybe I can get my tech savvy friends to tune that for me! xD Power aim is about 300hp, I'm not sure what the torque rating would be with 300hp, or what affects the torque. >.>
  5. I'm sure this has been done before, I was just wondering what kind of mpg the people who have done it are getting. I know that the r180 isn't as strong as the r200, but I'm not planning on racing my Z. It's a f54/p90a combo (possible larger turbo, EFI on standalone) going into a '74 260Z, so I'm planning on leaving the stock differential in there and swapping in the 5spd. Also, I'm a little fuzzy on the details, but isn't the flange on the r180 different from the flange on transmission. Is that true as well?
  6. Has anyone done something like that? I kinda like the look of just carpet going over that hump in the middle for the tranny. I know all it really entails is removing the center console, but does anyone have pics of what it looks like? My carpet is all torn up and ugly... so I need some inspiration! ^^
  7. actually... where would this go? the body forum is more for kits... misc tech?
  8. OMG I'm sooo sorry! Please delete this, I think it's in the wrong forum! T-T I'll repost in the Body forum too.
  9. Has anyone made or installed a hatch lifter? I'm thinking about making almost everything on my Z automatic! That means shaved doors, pop locks, push start ignition, the works! Well... I gotta save up a lot for all that, but it'll be super clean when it's done! Anyways, I was wondering about the newer SUVs and their automatic hatch openers. Anybody done this? Or know of someone who makes a kit?
  10. my dash has a crack in it... a rather large one too! i was gonna get a cover, could I cover the cover?
  11. Ive been looking for a 5 speed, but since I'm not really planning on racing him, I want one that has more of a "cruising" 5th gear instead of the closed ratio more autoX T-5. I'm not really sure of the differences though, so I'm not sure what's entailed in the swap.
  12. From what the machinist told me, they're OEM style pistons. I guess that means they're flat-top? The pistons that I pulled out of the engine in the first place had a little bit of a dish in them, but I figured even if they're called "flat-top" they've got to have SOME room for the air/fuel mix, right? I gotta figure out how to post up some pictures so you can all see what I'm talking about! Ta ta for now lovelies~ ^^
  13. Hey everyone! I picked up my non-running late model 260Z a while ago! It must've been 6 months, and I didn't get anything done. Woe is me... Until last month, when I got my 280ZXt motor into the local machine shop, there's a whole plethora of things I'm having done, but it's basically a complete rebuild with a slight bore of .002? He says 20 thousandths, and I'm bad with decimals. Anyways, I figure that's gonna give me a bit of a power boost! ^^ Let's see, since I've gotten motivated there's been lots done! The major thing was that I got the L26 and 4spd out, with the help of my friend! And I've done some demolition on the interior. There are 2 holes on the passenger side from rust, and some other spots on the exterior that are covered by paint... I guess the previous owner was too lazy to remove it and got a $100 paint job from MAACO >.< Oh well, I'm gonna end up sanding it down anyways, hopefully there's no Bondo on it. Umm... Hopeful power gains by the end of the engine modifications are: 200hp, MAYBE 300hp depending on if I get my raise! >.<
  14. PB works wonders! Though it does kinda stink IMO. I like WD-40, but PB is stronger, and I think from Home Depot you can get a tap set too, but I dont remember a price.
  15. If you already have the flares and all, you could DIY it. 240hoke did a really good write up on how to install them, and all you need are a few powertools! http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=113064
