L24 with Mikuni triples and a one-off Nissan airbox!

I have a terribly noisy diff in a 71 that is going up for sale. I need a r180 that runs quiet. I'm in Indiana, so I would prefer someone close to save on shipping. I can paypal or I have many items for possible trade. Please email or PM me with what you got. I will be looking locally too and I will update this thread if I find one. Thanks

I started a 'triple mikuni thread' over on classic which might also have some useful stuff. I'll post up my numbers when I have dynoed with my triples on my L24.

Google lemon juice method !

The look of the engine bay with mounted side drafts- especially triples Torque and MPG and The music.

You definitely want a good size pre-muffler. Another thought is a chambered type muffler instead of a turbo-type. I like the sound of my duals, but wonder what impact a baffled muffler would have had on the sound. I have pre-resonators( glass packs) and wish I could have fit bigger cans in there. My magnaflows do a much better job of mellowing the tone over the previous glasspacks. I vote for good flowing chambered muffler with a large resonator on your 3" system. Or duals.......

I am also having starter issues- I believe that is your issue. I can jump across the selanoid and the starter will work again. I'm getting tired of Fu@€ing around with starters, it's hard to find A good rebuilt or remanned one. I'm about ready to drop 200$ on a remanned Hitachi! I just ordered a remanned AC DELCO, I hope it does better.

Great news! Gives me some incentive to lower mine that last 1/2" also.

All ears on this converstaion-I have had repeated issues will oil leaks from these seals. I thought the Nissan one had the steel pins enbedded within the rubber(one piece unit). I also thought the aftermarket ones the pin was wrapped with the rubber, but was two different pieces. Either way, I got it wrong , because mine leaks check out this http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/thread37250.html

I thought I would update this thread with current and FINISHED pics of my CAI

Needle and seats on order from Todd. Not sure if that is the issue, but used Mikuni's - I'm probably lucky I havent issues yet. Gonna check plugs tomorrow.

Leon, Are you saying you were 11-12 AFR's WOT on this pull? Seems a bit rich-losing a bit of HP there? Don't give the up the duals man!

So the weather cools off and humidity drops out- so mixtures should lean out a bit in carbed engines? Had my Mikunis dialed in for the hot and humid and this weather change arrives and my AFR's are suddenly piggy rich- confused! I'm guessing for some reason a cylinder is not running right or a carby is scewing up causing the richness- unless my understanding of air density is off. Time to pull some plugs and the CAI and look for fuel. It's always something:)

You said you want to LISTEN to the Z community You were just told that there is a 99% chance you already have a r200, but you still think you have an R180 Good advice above to make sure of your chassis integrity before throwing money at the suspension. Good luck

Leon, This reminds me of my quest to get ready for zcon 2010- stress was up there. I only had 300 miles to go, but worried every mile for the first half. Check- double check and pack plenty of tools!!

Looked the stuff over, don't want any cracks. Thanks for the reply though

Wish list; plastic interior panels for 73 or earlier. I just need the quarter window and quarter panel plastics. Color is not an issue, would prefer later years-heavier plastic. front windshield trim complete rear bumper ends, must be able to rechrome at minimum Inner vinyl pieces that cover inner rockers. I have lots of parts to trade or paypal-please send pics with your responses s_finnerty1018@comcast

Check out RHDJAPAN. They sell extra wide rear flares, and their quality is supposed to be excellent.

I think I'm done tuning for a while. Thanks for the help guys. pilots-67.5 main air-180 main fuel-155 acc. pumps-47, middle setting

To experience pure L6 sound-use head sets!!

What tranny? I have a t-5 I am dealing with a similiar situation and I don't know enough about trannys to know if my end play is okay or not. I'm going to take it to a tranny shop and have them look at it. As far as other possibilties, you said you looked under neath your car, I hope that was with wrench in hand. Not preaching here, but I just got egg in my face like Dan did because I found out a clunk was caused by a loose diff mounting bolt. Couldn't tell by looking, but it was almost two turns loose-and it made a lot of noise. Keep us updated.
