Even though it's ugly!! I'm impressed with the body work, that is a lot of custom design, and very nicely finished.
i fully agree with you.
-
what kind of paint is that ?
-
dont sell it, put it in storage or a garage, and come back to it in a few years. If you have spent alot of time on the car you will regret selling it.
-
^ do you have any hi res pics of the pic above ? ( it would make a nice desktop/poster.)
-
that's interesting... so the front and rears from the altima work for the front and rears for the 280zx?
i only tried the front. So the front definatly works, dont really know about the rear, but i would assume it does.
-
Had some altima intrax springs laying around, and they work on the 280zx, same size and height. Just though someone would like to know. this is from a 2gen altima btw.
-
does anyone have this on their Z or ZX ? They look pretty decent...searched but no answer...thanks
-
No offense to the owner of the car but I didn't find that impressive at all.
werd. nothing really outof the ordinary
-
do you guys know where to buy some oem or erethren(sp?) bushings, i need a whole kit for the front and rear, also i need tie rods, and other suspension stuff...If anyone knows any good sites, please list them...
-
dont get a 6 puck if your going to be driving this car on the street...I will be a bitch to change gears.
-
wideband for sure....
-
why not get a tial ? like a 35 or 38mm

Yep I finally have turbo FR action now! I blew the headgasket on my stock L28 so I decided to just buy a L28ET with the ECU and harness. I was originally going to just turbocharge the stock engine but it'll never pass a smog check in cali since its a 76 [
]. Anyway it was my summer project and my first full engine swap. If it wasn't for zcar.com and hybridz.org forums I don't think I couldn't have finished it properly (I'm a dunce when it comes to wiring) oh and of course the S30 and S130 Haynes manuals too. Even though its a basic swap that didn't require any or much fabrication it was a good learning experience.It runs now' date=' its just still got some small bugs to work out like the speedo doesn't work right now O_o' but its running pretty well. I haven't gotten to drive it much though because after I had the exhuast installed one of the rear wheel cylinders blew and I lost brake pressure. So its sitting in my driveway awaiting a rear disc conversion. Here's some small specs on the engine.
Its a L28ET from a 82' 280ZX turbo.
165 psi compression!
Boosts 7 psi stock (for now [
])Stock T3 Turbo
2.5" turboback exhuast (maybe I shoulda went 3")
Non intercooled for now
RX7 front mount oil cooler with a cooleradapter from a auto 280ZXT
I plan on increasing the boost to around 10 psi and install an intercooler, EGT gauge, turbo timer, 1G blowoff valve, T3/T4 turbo. Wahaha so not only do I have 3 different driving platform cars at my house they all are force fed
Turbo Eclipse, Supercharged MR2, and Turbo 280Z. Another cool thing love is that it doesn't really look any different than it did b4 (cept the big *** oil cooler), that is until you hear the turbo spoolin mwahaha.The full album and project are on my imagestation account (its LONG) at:

^ well i was talking about the Ivan that tuned the 637rhwp 240sx...
-
-
^ i think you have something mixed up because before this he was working in Sound Performance, check out phatka-t.com its a division of S/P.
-
nevermind, read the news on phatka-t, damnit i hate AMS
sad to see him leave sound performance, since they were the only shop that actually provided good customer support. -
^ Since when does Ivan work at AMS ? Last i heard ivan is with sound performance....i doubt AMS would touch his car though but **** maybe.
-
are you running a BOV ? is it recirculated or atmosphere ? dieing at idle could be caused by the BOV, check to see if your couplers arent letting air out, you could have a boost leak somewhere, if its not that, then your tuning is in the shitter.
Where are you in Chicago ? what shop are you going to ?
