I didn't realize this site even existed. You're awesome. Thanks!

Hey guys, It's 2013, and most of the information on the site concerning CV conversions is no longer useful due to lack of parts. The two manufacturers of CV adapters that I'm ware of, both Modern Motorsports and M2 Differentials, are no longer in business. I was looking forward to throwing on my set of 280ZX Turbo CV shafts in the coming weeks, but it appears that 280ZX Turbo shafts may no longer be an option, unless there are other companies building adapters. It seems to me that we now have three options for CV shafts on our S30 Z cars: Custom CV shafts like these: http://www.driveshaftshop.com/datsun-510-240z-c-v-conversion-kit-with-108mm-flanges http://www.wolfcreekracing.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=72&Itemid=61 OR Custom 280ZX Turbo CV adapter such as: http://www.pape.ws/allan_and_rosanne/Z-Car_Stuff/Modifications/CV%20Halfshaft%20(280ZX%20Turbo)%20Conversion%20for%20late%20260Z-280Z.htm OR crazy Z32 R200/R230 VLSD conversion (seems way over the top for my car): https://technotoytuning.com/nissan/280z/complete-r200-r230-rear-end-conversion-z-car Does anyone else have any thoughts on this issue?

Modern Motorsports doesn't want to do business anymore, so I was wondering if anyone has a set of 280ZX Turbo CV adapters for my 240Z.

Payment sent! Thanks

Sounds excellent should I send the paypal to that address?

Yes the 27 spline ones are what I'm looking for. I'm doing a 280ZXT CV shaft conversion. But you only have one? I'm trying to get a set

No, sorry, I am looking for the stub axle, like this:

As seen in thread title, I'm looking to buy a set of OEM 280Z stub axles. Let me know what you've got and we'll make a deal!

The mitsubishi turbocharger should be flanged improperly for use on a normal L28ET manifold.

I've heard about some electrical noise issues when grounding your MS and LC1 in the same spot. I was having issues with my LC1 resetting and then never coming back (simply flashing its lowest value forever), and I regrounded separately from the MegaSquirt, and don't seem to be having the issue anymore, but I've only got maybe an hour of driving on it since moving the ground.

Yes, but I am saying the MegaSquirt PWM is fine. People claim that it is weak, but there really isn't much evidence to support that. With the mod I outlined above, and the PWM set up correctly in the injector characteristics menu, there is no reason that MegaSquirt can't drive 6 or more low impedance injectors without needing resistor packs.

There are some guys on the MSEFI and MSExtra running 6, 8 and 12 cylinders with low impedance injectors without injector overheat issues, so I'm not sure that's a problem. I've never read about anyone overheating their injectors anyways.

I can help you with #4 as I just fixed this issue! It is correct that the MegaSquirt injector driver wasn't really made to handle 6 injectors -- it creates too much electrical noise for the MegaSquirt to handle. HOWEVER, before you go out and buy resistors to put in your system, there is an easier way! It is very simple to fix the MegaSquirt injector drivers to allow them to handle 6 low impedance injectors with ease, and it ends up getting less noise than installing resistor packs inline with the injectors! Run down to Radio Shack, and buy yourself a 47uf 35V capacitor. Now, take the case off of your MegaSquirt, and find the "boot" header on it. On the underside of the board, it should have the back side of the "boot" header pins sticking through. Solder your two 47uf 35V capacitor leads to the two "boot" header pins. Stick the case back on your MS, and bam! You're ready to go with your new, low noise setup. This may fix other problems you are having as well. For me, I had trouble getting the engine to rev over ~5k or so without having it cut out, and it would also cut out randomly while cruising. Both issues are completely gone. Edit: I also know 5, it should be 2 per cycle, alternating

Will there be an iOS version? Actually, I feel like an iPad would be a good candidate for a FULL version of TunerStudio

I guess you can put the lash pads 180 degrees different from one another, but I believe the bottoms are machined to be completely flat, so it really shouldn't matter. I've had 3 different cams in my car now, and have not worried about lash pad orientation, only proper thickness. No issues yet!
