240zwannabe

that must be the problem then. jmortensen, i hope your right. i'll post pics up in an hour or so. i don't know why i could expect anything better from the guy i bought it from, the subframes were already assembled. thanks

Super B makes a sequential kit for cummmins motors...what year cummins motor do you got? and what do you plan to do with the holset?

so i finished my rear brakes after i installed my 240z subframe with eibach pro-kit springs and tokico hp struts onto my 280z, put the wheels on and took it off the jack stands to see how much lower it was going to sit. well, to my suprise the only thing keeping from sitting on the ground was the width of my wheels, it was literally sitting on my tires. now, does anybody have any suggestions other than me having to go out and buy eibachs road race springs? also, the front suspension looks like its sitting like a monster truck almost, could it be that the guy i originally purchased this setup from had mistaken the rear springs for the front? any advice is welcome, thanks

Lewis, how was the autolab experience?

hmm...does anybody know what the law is about back bumpers in Ky?

does anybody know if it's completely legal to have no back bumper

arizona z car

i got my turbo motor with 82K miles on it for free, well i traded about 60 go-kart tickets for it but they wre free to be because i worked there for a year and a half. although it didnt come with harness, ecu, tranny or turbo it was still alright by me, hell the only thing wrong with it was a broken stud in the head

i'm actually kind of thinking about selling mine. came with my first Z i bought a couple years ago, the car was actually on the rotisserie when i went to look at it.

awesome thanks, thats what i wanted to hear.

this might be a stupid question but i just want to reasure that i have the 9mm rods, what year did the different rods come in 240z's?

almost 100% sure i'm going into aircraft mechanics. i just got "promoted" at the body shop i work at today from detail to frame work...yippeee finally no more buffing

ebay turbo = non-reliable. take your chances if you want.

sorry it took me so long to post back up about wheel fitment, adapters didn't come until yesterday. but, the 17*8 with a 40 series tire has more of a fitment issue in the front than the 17*9 with a 45 series tire. front wheel are about 2-3 cm from the suspension versus the rear is about an inch or two. all BS aside they do fit.

haha no comment...

wow, can't do anything but respect that. i was expecting your motor to be an RB or something else.

i thought the hy35 bolted to the stock t3 flange?

well thanks for the heads up, all i can do now is keep my fingers crossed and hope your wrong. spacers come in on monday hopefully so i'll post up if they fit or not

are you saying the tire will rub or the wheel? with you saying i should be worrying about fitment i'm beginning to worry more about the wheel due to the 45 series tire being stretched about .25-.5 inch of the 9" wheel

sorry, +35 offset, modern motorsport adapters

uh oh, i've got 235/45/17 tires on a sportmax 006, spacers should be here today or monday. anybody tihnk that would be a fitment issue? edit: sorry thats the rear wheel that 9" wide, the front is a 215/40/17 on a 8" wheel

how much did you get the holset for? and what holset is it? i really want one...

i just got my 280 running and i have the same pedal sticking problem....someone please help us!

nice job, hows the dirt and what not in your alls booth? wanna come up to louisville and paint my Z?

can't help you on sizes or where to find a BF Goodrich tire in that size, through my own experiences they didn't make my sizes. but i can tell you to order them through tiresdelivered.com, i bought toyo proxxes 4, retail: $620....bought them from tires delivered for $460
