I am running a stock radiator in my 240. The hoses I use are for a 1988 mustang gt. Trim the bottom one a bit on one end to fit and top one as well. They are perfect. And cheap. I am running old school v8 Chevy water pump intake on passenger side lower. .

Well for the right price the 1970 240 in my sig pic is for sale.
-
So what are you looking to spend. Everything is always for sale with the right price.

My 70 240 after second build from carjacking.

Just got a spool for an s13 short nose r200 put it right in my 87 turbo r200 29 spline 78 4 bolt hole stubs went right in . Works perfect.

Same here would be all over a set if they are not molded with headlight buckets

About 3 of my friends changed over to e85 all turbo cars. Great power and cheap price but now the have found they use twice as much fuel an are actually paying more. My suburban ca use it or regular fuel. Have only seen 3 stations here in so cal so far with it and in my suburban i get very poor mileage with it and basicly till i run the tank aslow as possible and put normal gas back in .

Well i a in the power range your at and i have had 3 break on my z. That is with the carquest gold non greasable u joints. Strongest ones i have found. 1 broke at drag strip one at a stop light and the last one broke while just going down the street at 65 mph. Now i have cv axles from driveshaft shop rated at 1000 hp . I dont plan on having issues ever again with them. As of last week launched at drag strip on slicks and on a 200 shot of nitrous with no issues.

Why do people keep asking stuff or posting on such old threads. Read the date on the last post. When 6 years old it is dead

Stay away from those glowshift guages they are garbage. I purchased a full set of their tinted guages and none worked right and the company wll not do anything . They did say i can send them in and they will check them . Oil pressure showed i had 12 psi i bought all autometer after and oil now showes 51 psi. Temp showed car always about 40 degrees off either way it couldnt make up its mind. Before i could warn anyone not to purchase them a friend saw mine and ran out and got some and his dont work either .

If you want gas mileage buy a Prius. Pretty sure no one on here built their Z for gas mileage. But to answer the post I have a GM crate motor Zz383 and an 850 cfm carb and 700r4 and 3.54 gears with 25.5 in tall tires and get 24 mpg hwy and about 17 city.

Cuz everyone knows people with chevy parts have all kind of junk laying around. I happen to have 2 of them actually complete tail metal thing whatever they are called that go around the tail lights andhold the plate on .lol
-
There are no issues at all on the street. I have another car with a spool and over 700 hp i drive all over when the weather letts me. Yes turning corners is noisy. I mean i wouldnt put one in for a daily driver.
-
Weir performance.com i just put one in my 86 300zxt open diff. Very nice. I wll add somepictures later today if possible. $425. Shipped to me .
-
Would anyone be interested in a full spool for R200 diff. They are available and so much better than the welded spider gears.
-
Yeah that looks like it other than a different stub out of it for half shafts. ?
-
So i was in the junk yard sunday and came across a 1974 260z 2+2 automatic. I was searching for another r200 so i looked under this car and I havenever seen this diff or the half shafts before. It had 5 bolts holding in the shafts to the diff and a u joint righ on the piece coming out of the diff. Does anyone know what diff that is. Looked like an R180 but the safts didnthave 4 bolts holding them to the diff.
-
I was in junk yard today and there are 4 2+2 in there .1 was a 74 2+2 260 i may haveto go back tomorrow and check it and take it
-
I have a 1975 280z, which i have to stall to turn off because it will not shut down from the ignition switch. I have replaced the drivers side half shaft once already because the U joints became loose and started to Squeak really bad. The new one i put in is already starting to make some noise and it has only been a couple weeks since i replaced it. My question is if stalling my car can ruin my half shafts pre-maturely because of the stress placed on them when i stall the engine.
Fix the ignition switch. And buy better u joints for the shafts.

I have abrand new one sitting here

So here i am about to start getting my car back together.. what happened to all the z cars all over i can't find parts any place.. every junk yard around is full of bmw and mercedes not 1 datsun anyplace.. tried 6 junk yards..

I think this time around it is getting a remote kill switch. kinda a ittle safer to be able to shut the motor off when they drive off a little . a frind of mine has a remote on his truck that shuts it off up to a mile away.. almost looks like a little cell phone .. i need to find who makes it and post it.. also when ever we are at the race track or anyplace away from his truck his remote alerts him when the alarm cherps from loud cars or anything bumping it.. kinda cool.. On the other part of this i have had people point guns at me but they seemed scared and looking around this one stared right at me and just said get out of the car. then when i didn't he pulled the hammer back and i could see the bullets in the gun. so i didn't think he would have a prob with shooting me at all. not to mention there were 3 of them in the van... but we got 2 of them so far.. i found one about 9 months ago thanks to myspace.. the jerkoff had a page and was wearing the same clothes and hat he jacked me in .. and number 2 had my car at his home and was the owner of the van that they used to jack me..
-
I had ways to kill the car. but it was not a good place to use them.. i can't outrun a pissed off loser with a gun in a car when i am on foot..lol and the closest thing that was open was about a 1/4 mile away. not to mention he had already pulled the hammerack when i didn't just jump right out of the car..
-
It sucks seeing it this way.. as soon as i walked out in my yard and saw my son sitting on the trailor with his feet inside the car i knew I have no choice but to rebuild it.. he has been wanting this car for his first car for the last 4 years. guess i have 2 years to get it back together..lol the scary part is i can't stop looking for it when i am driving around still and i know it is already in my yard..
