  1. looks like he has another one..... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-GARRETT-TURBO_W0QQitemZ140341821138QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item20ad063ed2&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14
  2. BEFORE After Old Red...you will be missed...
  3. I'll have to take fresher pics of what I found today......the tunel has cancer, the full front end is held together with the body panels... If some one wants it...it's theirs...just come pick it up....
  4. Just thought I'd share a little...lurker here for a while... As of 9:35 am today, I have decided to pull the plug on my little baby... It lived a respectable life...was rebuilt, pampered, abused, played with, went thru 3 transplants, and had a collection of shoes that would make any woman jealous. Just as another transplant was getting lined up, something with more power, more speed, and a full new look, cancer was found. The pre-op looked recoverable, but after looking deeper into the hidden areas, more cancer was found... The passivation is terminal, the hydrated iron oxides was just to much for the frail 70's era Japanese metals that the patient was equipped with. With the failing corroded wires, and the constant dying on the road, and the track, it was trying to tell me that it didn't want to carry me and the wife anymore safely...and that it didn't have the strength to withstand a bigger powerplant... It's sole survivor, which is the same year and make, shall receive the full organs that were the patient has donated, and shall have more of a chance to live on for a few more years, since the same cancer is only in the pimple (puberty) stage compared to the the deceased. Old Red Z, you will be missed.... Old Red...you will be missed...
  5. And I was going to buy it...but I already have two... but go look at some of the stuff I have on CTZCC in the for sale area....
  6. I have an R34 Neo RB25DET, not sure if it's an early one or a late one, but is there a way to find out if I need the crankshaft mod done without taking the oil pump off?
  7. I kinda gave up on it and got another Z... http://www.redpepperracing.com/gallery/v/airjockie/another260Z/
  8. I still got it. I can't decide a decent price. I'm not even sure if these might be a rare item nowadays or not. I haven't seen to many of them though.
  9. I'm giving up....for now. I connected everything up, and I guess the dizzy doesn't have enough juice to trigger the msd. I'm just going to yank the carbs, exhaust, and header off the car, and sell them. Then pull the motor out and everything else off the car and prep it for a major over haul in the winter. Time to invest into the painless wire kit, and find a guy to sandblast the shell.
  10. about to hook it up today, and I don't want to pop anything...what I am thinking, is this wire arrangement. Black-ground red-acc fuse green-msd white wire? white-not used?
  11. I have a near mint hooker competition header, and the twice pipes to match it with the 4 mini cherry bombs on them. They have aged a little since the pic...and they sound loud as hell on the car. Too loud...that the wife doen't want to ride with me anymore... So I guess I'll toss in the turbo motor and the quiet exhaust, and sell these to a guy that coming to look at them today. But I need to know what a fair price would be for them. sorry for the large pic, but a link to it. http://hondaswap.com/attachments/968d1159030209-dual_header_exhaust_1.5.jpg
  12. well, the spare dizzy I have has red, green, white, and black wires.... the MS list's b/w, gb, gy, and black.... but I'll try to figure it out. also, I searched, found once on the quick way to pull the pump and align the dizzy shaft and oil pump, but now I can't find that write up... back to searching. Does the oil pump also needs to be swapped?
  13. welp...now I'm, screwed. I was playing around with it today, pulled up an actual wire dai, and went to work trying different things... and two wire rested next to each other...and the next thing I know...there is a poof of smoking coming from the dizzy cap. I fried the crane cams optical sensor... so now I have to either pop off the oil pump, change the dizzy shaft and start playing with the ZXT dizzy and start re-wiring everything again... or find a dizzy that slips right onto the 280Z engine and is MSD trigger happy. Third option is to just give up on the car for the summer, and set it aside for a full winter rebuild. I got 3 other cars to play with... an 87 CRX, another 260Z, and an 88 200sx... anyone have something cheap that will work...I'll have a decent paycheck thursday.
