  1. Thanks man, I'm still in the process of getting the height adjusted, the struts are set at 3. The ride is great, comfortable but handles when it needs to. Thanks again for the custom work!

  4. /\ And I thought mine was low Pardon the wallpaper size..
  5. To get this thread back on topic here's a video of how my L28E + T runs. Call it what you will http://youtu.be/g2yyNUt6t1Y
  6. I don't have a stock L28ET. My set up is exactly what the OP is asking about. So really I'm not off topic at all. I never once said it was "easy" I said my car runs good with the factory EMS. I didn't say it ran great, perfect, or otherwise. My car starts right up and drives, once I do some minor tweaking it will be just fine. To me that's "good". Your definition of a good running car must be different since you don't do any modifications and don't experience the trials and tribulations when working with a highly modified vehicle. I'm not going to waste my time explaining to you what happened between good running and post #31. Your just fishing for something to further argue about. Injectors were changed as were sensors. I've had to fix what the previous owner has done to my car because they really did a half ass job. Before making any more assumptions go to my build thread and take a little look see, try not to crap in it while your there.
  7. Not a good sign for you friend, you just expect people to take your jerk attitude and move on don't you? I like to know my enemy. I know now that you drive a stock car and make posts like check the sensor via the FSM. Just because you can recite the factory service manual doesn't make you gods gift to the Z community. I'm looking for personal experiences from people who have actually done modifications to their cars not some angry old timer on a tangent. Your making yourself look bad at this point, but if you persist that's fine, I have all day.
  8. Your attitude is amazing. You have no clue what my financial situation is with my car. I said my car ran good and you say that's bad advice? Your really reaching here buddy. I can't help but notice when a knowledgeable guy like Tony D posts their seems to be some crony that rides in on his coat tails and starts being a jerk. Hey lets pick on the newbe! Tony will have my back! Their must be something going on in your life where you feel the need to be an internet bully. Maybe we could take this conversation elsewhere and we can try and get you some help.
  9. Ok apparently I need to break this down barney style for you to comprehend. I said my car ran good at the time. It did. During the course of 9 days I changed my set-up and began to ask questions, Tony D make a good humored joke about it running good. I admitted it and laughed it off and moved on. You act like I'm saying my cars the best, and I'm not, I'm just trying to learn and your crapping all over everything. Way to help out the community.
  10. I admitted to everyone what was the current status of my drivability was. No one caught me but myself scooter. I never said it ran perfect so don't put words in my mouth. You drive a slightly modified 260z so why are you even in this thread? Take your mid life crisis elsewhere pal.
  11. When your have a non running car for over a year then get it running decent you tend to get excited. I'm very happy I can actually drive the thing at this point. It does run "good" it just needs some tuning and final touches. When I first made my "good" running comment I was running different injectors and different sensors, since then (9 days later) I've changed my set up and am currently in the process of making it run better. I appreciate you taking the time to calculate the number of days between my posts so you could make such a witty comment. You remind me of some other people around here with this elitist type attitude of yours. Really sad.
  12. I did wrap the threads with some because the CHTS didn't fit that snugly into the 1/2" to 1/4" brass adapter. I also had to JB Weld the CHTS because due to it's swiveling design coolant would leak out of it. Having said that the car will idle good when warmed up but if you turn it off and come back and start it a few min later the idle will hunt and won't stop until you start driving. Acceleration is ok, but when you start gettng into boost or go WOT it acts like it's holding back and revs will climb slowly. Can't even get in the 4k range without enough run way. Not sure if this is related to the jerry rigged chts or something completely unrelated.
  13. Yeah you got me Tony haha..I was just happy it was actually drivable. The funny thing is it had 280z n/a injectors from the previous owner installed and with the CHTS unplugged it ran good. Then I threw in the oem turbo injectors and it ran rich. Plugged the CHTS back in and then it ran good but my new problem now is it doesn't like cold starts. Thinking the cold start injector is the culprit now.
  14. I don't want to thread jack but it it's related. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what to do with the CHTS. I have a location for it in the t-stat housing but due to it's swivel design it leaks coolant out. I purchased a 79-83 CTS because research told me they should be the same thing. With the CTS plugged in the car will not start and hold idle cold, and once warm drives like crap. If I completly unplug it the car will start / idle, and drive good until you get into boost then it just dumps fuel. At this point I'm pretty sure I need the actual CHTS installed but there's nowhere to put it on the N47 head. Any ideas?
