  1. Hey just wanted to let anyone who is interested know. I have received my full harness last week. The ECU was heavily wrapped in bubble wrap and boxed in with foam, and the harness was also wrapped. Everything arrived exactly as described and pictured, everything is clearly labeled, and it came with printed detailed instructions. It shipped way faster than expected considering it came from canada. Overall Im very happy with my experience, Hussein was incredibly helpful figuring out how I wanted my setup, kept me updated every step, and had it done faster than originally promised. Everything looks great should make for a very clean install.
  2. Looking to buy a stock 81 l28et engine harness and distributor. I have everything else needed for a stock setup already. Would also be interested in an aftermarket engine management setup. Just let me know what you have.

    About the exhaust, I thought doing rhe very same thing on my Z fr the same reason, how does it actually sound? Cause thats alway important to me.
  4. On my 260z the I had a MC where only half worked, so it is possible. One of the hard lines could be plugged as well.
  5. Huh, I thought it was really gonna suck to be honest. I really liked The Conjuring, though. I figured it was just gonna ride the coattails of The Conjuring, and there wasn't near enough material to even base a story on. It was a recipe for a really terrible movie.
  6. The way I did it, slip a 10mm wrench(I used a gear wrench) inbetween the hatch and body and undo the bolts that hold the latch mechanism to the hatch. Then you can open the hatch and figure out why the latch stuck, for me it was rust and and a broken spring, which I fixed. You need to the to go back and forth between the two bolts so you can lift up the latch as they come out, otherwise they'll run into the body. This is of course all assuming you have an S30.
  7. Wow! That body kit is awesome, gonna be a sweet car when done.what wheels are those? They look really nice.
  8. Hey Jim, I know its been a couple months but if I could pick your brain..... I see that both you and thye guy in the above blog used two screws to secure the custom mounting plate. It looks for for all the world that those two screws would interfere with the nut that tightens down to hold the steering wheel. Did the nut clear? And couldn't you just tighten the nut down once installed to hold the plate in place. Also I thought you might be able to completely remove the little wire from the contact plate and run the spring from the 280 wheel in the hole the the wire would have come up through, so it would function just the 280 wheel already did? Hopefully you followed that. I even wonder if you could use the 280 contact plate?
  9. I love wrinkle paint on engines. I went polished/gold paint on mine.
  10. That's an ealry 260, I have one. As far as I know all early 260s have thos bumpers, There kinda like 240 but attached to shock absorbers with filler panels behind them. Later 260s had full tilt park bench bumpers like the 280.
  11. Well thats awesome, another one actually saved rather than parted. Far too many of these cars get parted out because they just don't hold enough value, so it's nice to see someone go through the work and make a rust bucket rust free. Congrats and thank you for saving a Z.
  12. I am about to do this mod as well. Bfg, a couple questions. You said the 240 wire should not be hanging out, but in your pic it is. What exactly did you do with the 240 wire? And did you leave the spring contact that sits on the column so it has contact with the wheel? Thanks for the write up.
  13. Yes I saw those, I am going through some major issues on it right that will come first and at the same time trying to figure out exact needs for my paticular car as its an early 260 which have oddball strut housings. But I am interested.
  14. Struts, shocks, and doughnuts

  15. I am hoping to redo the suspension in my early 260z sometime next month. I bought a set of monroe struts for my car before I decided to lower it, and am now looking for a set of springs, a set of struts or a set of both. I would be willing to trade my new monroes towards a set of what I actually need. If you have anything, email at GTHawkwindr5@aol.com I don't really check here much, so emails are preferred.
