Craigslist, search everyday. There is too much primer in places. It needs a whole paint job. Parts of the car paint are very nice. I'm likely to sell the under tray. Help offset the fix up cost, but your welcome to come by and make a template.

Kinda, but not as nice. He likes the automatic though.

As much as I hate them, I'm assuming I should leave the hideous bumpers on for a 16 year old yes?

I recently sold the 77 I had due to to much rust. I was going to fix it for my son but I don't think I could have finished it in 2 years. I picked another one up yesterday thinking I was going to just flip it or sell mine and turbo the 78. My son (14) went with me to pick it up. It runs, drives, is an Automatic and the AC works. We were test driving it and my son says, "Does this guy have any idea there is nothing wrong w/ this car?". I just laughed. I was posting the car for sale on craigslist locally when he walks in tonight. He was like don't sell that one, I really want it. The nice thing is it has 75% less rust than the other 77 I got rid of. Not to bad for $400.00 What do you call the 3rd Pic? Is that the splash guard that most take off and throw away? Any value for them for the 280z?

That is alot of power, to bad it all can't be transmitted to the ground.

What did I do with those X-Ray glasses I had!

Old thread I know, but the info was very relevant today!

Curious, if you ditched the these Individual throttle bodies and built a log with a single TB and turbo how would it work out?

Awesome story and awesome score! Welcome to the fun.

It's actually better when you've had a few beers in you!

Hey where's my $2K you owe me. Plus breakfeast!

Bump!

Anytime... just give me a heads up when you want to do it!

Nice, where was that at?

If anyone is using the Tec3 on an L6, could I get some pics of how you all mounted your trigger wheel and sensor. Thanks!

If you can make a 60-2 wheel to that would be cool to. What are tolerances on EDIS (Sensor distance to wheel). The Tec is very close: However, Typically, the easiest place to mount a trigger wheel is on the harmonic damper or pulley. If it is mounted on a damper, it should be mounted on the inner hub rather than the outer dampening ring. The damper/pulley should be keyed to the crankshaft so that it cannot spin on the crankshaft, as this would cause an ignition timing error. When using a damper that has bolt-on pulleys, the trigger wheel can usually be mounted between the pulleys and the damper. However, the accessory pulleys will need to be shimmed out by 1/8” (the thickness of the trigger wheel). A variety of application-specific trigger wheels are available. To choose the proper size trigger wheel, find the diameter of the pulley or damper on which the wheel is to be mounted. The trigger wheel diameter should be about ½” larger than this diameter. It should also be noted that the trigger wheel should be at least ¼” from any moving magnetic pieces, such as bolts or other fasteners, to avoid interference and false triggering. It is important that the trigger wheel be perfectly concentric with the crankshaft centerline. To achieve concentricity, a shallow cut can be machined in the front or rear face of the damper to create a centering ledge, and a hole can be created in the trigger wheel to match the ledge diameter. The trigger wheel can then be drilled to bolt it to the damper. See table below to determine the tolerances that must be maintained when mounting the trigger wheel. These tolerances may require the use of a lathe to true the trigger wheel with the crankshaft centerline, which can be accomplished by putting the entire damper/trigger wheel assembly on the lathe. Note that the maximum out-of-round is the distance between the lowest and highest teeth and the crank sensor. That is, if a feeler gauge is used between the sensor and the wheel to measure the out-of-round, the reading between the lowest and highest teeth should not exceed the guidelines in the table. Crank Trigger Specifications Trigger Wheel Size Air Gap Maximum Out-of-Round 2.5" 0.025" max 0.002" 3.5" 0.035" max 0.003" 5" 0.050" max 0.005" 6" 0.060" max 0.006" 7.25" 0.070” max 0.007" 8.25" 0.080” max 0.008"

Can you make them that will work for a Tec-3 and a 60-2 wheel? Sensor's like these:

Geese, can you move down and be my neighbor in Florida? There is a nice 5 bed 3 car house right next to mine empty!

Good to hear Mike. If you want help bleeding the brakes I'm there.

I don't see why not. Are you worried about the power of the van or just tearing it up? I used my 4 cyl Nissan frontier to pull many Z's with a tow dolly and not a single issue. I guess my only concern would be the auto tranny in the van. Maybe upgrade w/ an oil cooler.
