Are there any issues with the RTZ mount? If my solid mount ever has a problem I would look into the RTZ mount as long as it doesn't throw the driveline angles off. Also consider what Jeromio did: http://240z.jeromio.com/diffmount.html

This is what I have used on two V8 240Z projects: http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/10-2296 Both cars driven daily for over ten years with no problems. The noise issue is exaggerated! There is no movement and there is very little increase in noise. Install it and move on to something else.

It depends on which caliper you want: vented or solid?

Some of the parts (search Hybridz) for 240Z racks have been NLA for years. Call the vendors and ask them what parts were replaced and what exactly did they do to "remanufacture the rack". In the past I have purchased "rebuilt" racks only to find that they were as worn and sloppy as my old rack. It looked like all they did was repaint the rack and install new boots.

Time to download a Factory Service Manual (FSM). They are available free elsewhere on HybridZ and all over the web. search "280Z FSM" or "280Z factory service manual" etc. Also, get a Haynes manual for 280Z.

Determine ratio by counting rotations method: http://www.zhome.com/ZCMnL/tech/WhatRearEndRatio.htm Or you can pull the cover and look at the markings stamped on the ring gear. Read the tech articles at Zhome.com etc.

See picture.

Or old age!

No, but it may have been my PC.

When I clicked on a topic to read a different topic appeared. Happened three times.

More info is required to answer your question: What brand of weatherstrip are you using? Is it after market such as the Precision kit that MSA and others sell or is it parts store brand? If it is made for your specific Z there should be a 90 deg corner that only goes in one way and the bulb part faces the door. If you have one of the Precision kit door seals, there is an old and well documented problem (search) with the door seals being too thick. There is a recent discussion on door seals in the 240Z, 260Z, 280Z forum. Check it out.

From my build notes: http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/83080-new-weatherstrip-alternative/page-1 The kits sold by MSA and Black Dragon were made by a company called "Precision". The fitment problems with the windshield, door and hatch glass were known for years, but MSA and Black Dragon continued to sell them. The two 240Z kits MSA sold me (12 years ago and 5 years ago) was actually for a 280Z so it had some extra parts in it that the 240Z does not need. I was was told that the 280Z door seals would work in the 240Z, but they were obviously too thick. I used cheap Pep Boys door seal instead. The above link gives a p/n for a McMaster pinch seal that works and is cheap. Except for the windshield, door and hatch fitment problems the rest of the Precision kit seals worked fine. There is another company (Vintage Rubber) that is making 240Z/280Z seals: http://www.vintagerubber.com/

Use the search function as there are many fixes: Search: "mcmaster weatherstripping"

The Courtesy weatherstrips are Nissan OEM parts. Call before ordering to confirm in stock.

I got mine here: http://www.courtesyparts.com/rear-hatch-glass-seal-1970-1978-240z-260z-280z-seater-p-568960.html?cPath=7724_7754& http://www.courtesyparts.com/windshield-weather-strip-1970-1978-240z-260z-280z-seater-p-568959.html?cPath=7724_7754&

Many posts on this subject. Search "door seals" and/or "weatherstrip" in the interior and body forums. My experience with MSA weather strip kits (2) was that the windshield seal had gaps in the upper corners, the hatch seal was malformed in one corner and the door seals were too thick to allow the doors to close. I used Nissan OEM winshield and hatch seals which fit perfectly. For door seals I used parts store materials. Search as all of these problems have been documented with solutions.

Go here and read the entire website on SU carbs: http://www.ztherapy.com/ Also, buy the video "Just SUs". It will explain everything you need to know about maintaining the SU carb.

Would a fuel rated stainless steel braided hose work?

Go here and download a Factory Service Manual: http://www.xenons30.com/reference.html

I removed all of the smog crap from mine and plugged all of the holes with brass plugs. A Haines manual will tell you what each component is.
