Great news! That happens, trust me I know.

Sweet look forward to seeing it!

I'm considering this as well so any information you have on your installation and how well it works would be helpful and appreciated. Christine

Here's some booty.

Enjoyed your updates so far Takashi! Can't wait to see more progress on this z Christine

225s would work better without flares on that setup, a little bit of camber and he'd be all good

Work CR01 15x9 -53 & 15x10 -53

I guess I can play too

Hi Pallnet, I'm once again in the market for another one of your fuel rails. I'll send you an email as well. 14mm o ring type with gauge (or just gauge port) Thanks! Christine

Yep I was thinking the same but I didn't see how I would need to shim the towers any more than I had already, and I was already at the thinnest lash pads but my wipe pattern was falling off the rocker pad on the valve side. So I knew I was doing something wrong. I wish I measured those valves before I put them in lol. I'm sure the correct valves are going to put things in alignment, I will most likely need new lash pads (probably a tad bit thicker after this) but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. Thanks again guys!

That was it Xnke Thank you for your help! 2mm taller valves caused my issue. Now I need to source the p90 valves. Anyone need to buy stainless n42/n47 valves?

I made an assumption and believed (but didn't measure) they are the p90 but I will have to verify this since this very well may be causing the discrepancy.

I'm wondering if anyone else has had this issue and if they have any suggestions on how to correct it.

It is a p90, not a p90a. I measured the head height and it's currently at 4.2315 or 107.5mm but the problem is that I can't find the definitive stock untouched p90 height spec. I've read 4.25 was the stock height, if that's the case it should be well within acceptable boundaries. Yes the shaved head must be taken into account, but the shims should have made it close to where it should be.

Hi all, I'm hoping someone out there (with more experience than I have) can help me out. The wipe pattern on my rocker arms is at the very edge of the valve side - meaning there's no wipe edge visible on the valve side of the pad. The head was warped a total of .007" so somewhere around the area of 14-16 thousandths of an inch (or .014 - .016 inches) was removed (7-8 thousandths from the top and 7-8 thousandths from the bottom of the head. Cam tower shims are .015" I have a competition (3 angle) valve job done, have stock l28et rocker arms and lash pads. My cam specs are .480 Lift x 272 Duration on 110 Lobe center. Lash is set at .25mm (exhaust), .20mm (intake) as it should be but I can't seem to get the wipe pattern closer to the pivot side. What made an acceptable difference was replacing the stock lash pad with a 2mm nut for testing purposes. A difference of over 1mm less the stock lash pads which are approx 3mm. Is there something I'm doing wrong? This test shows that I would need a lash pad that's thinner than stock but I don't see lash pads offered in 2mm sizing. What other [better] options should be considered? Any and all help would be appreciated.

Congrats!! Funny I was just checking out Haltech's site, trying to figure out my options, and saw your car there. I came here to search for posts on Haltech and found this post, lol. Do you have the Haltech in? How's it working out for ya? Thanks in advance, Christine

Yep I measured my buddies FRS seats, still too wide for my 280.

Haha, I didn't realize how much my window's imperfections were going to bother me. This must be Andy...

email sent!

WTB - 2 slats from a 240z grill or 240z grill that has at least two good slats

Thanks for the replys guys, I got them.

I have two but both have etching on them from louvers. Looking for a clean replacement (no scratches, etching or pitting). Thanks!

Let me know what you got!

Thank you! It has come a long way (still has a long way to go). I loved it when I got it, I love it even more now. Hi Mario!!!! How's it going?? I've got to post many more pics!
