  1. The brake booster is pretty bad it will need replacing I think, is there anything out there thats close to bolting straight in other than perhaps a 280Z? Theres very few R200 diffs around here, what would be the next bes diff to fit?
  2. Ive seen the JZ install for dummies but I havent found much else around. Im keen on the 1JZ install into my 260Z. I dont really plan on racing or drifting, but honestly theres a high to very high chance I'll try to throw the ass end out or give it death on the motorway at some point or several. Are the standard Z brakes ok for the 1JZ? Same with the Z diff? If not, what is the best/easiest to fit diff to replace the old one with? Is there anything else to watch out for with the install?
  3. G'day After stripping my 260's guards & seeing the cowboy job done on the weilding & also warping a guard myself (facepalm) Ive been looking for fibreglass or CF guards (fenders) & bonnet. I live in New Zealand, & even though the economy & dollar isnt what it was I thought I'd post some prices Ive come across here. Ive found bodykits & race pieces on line but not guards (I might have but I cant find anything in my fav's) http://www.zparts.co.nz/ ~ I asked about guards, I was told that they could get some with the headlight buckets attatched. If I remember correctly NZ$600 +tax each www.msfibreglass.co.nz ~ Bonnet/hood NZ$600 +tax would need bonnet pins, I didnt ask about the inspection lids, guards/fenders NZ$400 +tax each I asked if these parts were made with chop strand or woven cloth. They said they would use either for what you need. I also asked about having these made in carbon fibre, but not dry. He said its 3 times the price for carbon race spec. This is just a heads up if the dollar changes & if it becomes econimical to import from here if the price is right as I have to work between the exchange rate + shipping if I look overseas If anyone has a site for F/glass guards could you please leave a reply? I proberly have come across sites before, but like I said I cant find anything in my fav's list Cheers ~ Mark
  4. So.........Have we got anywhere yet? Im looking for FG or CF guards & front end, but the Z car shop here is heavily over priced, I could make molds if my guards wernt rooted
  5. Ive started on the front end with the indicators & what looks like park lights inside the same housing. Theres a tiny metal divider thats rusted away. Ive checked the Haynes manuel & on-line but these places tell me the indicator housing is only for the indicator. So do I worry about putting in a new divider? cheers
  6. If your asking these questions, I dont think you are capable of completing the project. Find somebody to help you, the forum will not answer every little question. Previous ride for sale: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2389875/1994-mazda-xedos-6
  7. The 2+2 I have bought is an auto so I'll have to put in a clutch master cylinder. Any ideas on how/ where or is the world my oyster with space? Also we dont have tiltons here, who makes those or a chasis number I can search?
  8. Cheers I had gone through this whole section wihout finding anything
  9. Has anyone got a 260Z 2+2 with the SR20 conversion? I havent found any pictures & am worried about the brake booster hitting the SR intake when I go to do this.
