Texas Turbo Tom 240 to LS2/T56/Magnacharger build
texis30O replied to texis30O's topic in S30 Series - 240z, 260z, 280z
i tightened up my suspension on the Koni's all the way around. I am a little less than 1/2 of the total revolutions on the shocks adjustment and the is a bit tighter, I did get some wheel hop during a semi- hard launch the other day so I need to possibly play with tire pressure as well. I am going back to the shop to have them listen to my motor as I think I hurt it a bit but that is to be determined. I am all good with oil pressure, and temps. I just have a odd sound..... No smoke so we will see.... Waiting to hear back on a new set of headlight covers and possibly a new front grill..... I am also working on a splitter/belly pan that will extend 3" out from the front of the lip of the spoiler and all the way back to the oil pan..... -

4L80e vs 4L60e in 240z Trans tunnel
texis30O replied to Ryan Merrill's topic in Gen III & IV Chevy V8Z Tech Board
It all depends on your power goals. -
Shouldn't., but it all depends on the motor mounts. I used the Hawk's 3rd gen mounts with their headers. I have a t56, not magnum. but he shifter location was able to go in the factory location. I am using a MGW shifter for mine. like a glove.

It is always interesting to delve into the history of these cars. They seem to be so versatile. Keep it alive for sure. -

I did. The photographer wanted the hood closed. Funny thing....I took home Best Old School for the show. I didn't even know I was a part of the judging because I was with a vendor. I was packing up my shit waiting to get back to my family when they called my name, I wasn't even over at the crowd..... lol. There is so much stuff left undone on my car it is ridiculous.... I guess the blown LS got'em...lol.... -

the new run will be 800. The previous guy just wanted me to cover material costs. which was around 400 when it was all done. The previous guy fell short in some areas and I couldn't bust his balls too much cause he essentially did it for free. The price will also depend on the color and how many coats you use. -

I would talk to Jeremy at PowerFab before you go and do that. He was discussing something about mimicking a GM harness to further assist in diagnosis of future issues. So it will be easier to track and pin point issues. Since we both have GM swaps. I thought this was GOOD idea. Hell yeah I still want them. Maybe I just send you the payment via paypal pay postage nad have them sent to my business address..... -

I have sold my flares I bought a new rear spoiler, and flares. Color change is happening next week...... First..... My wiring harness caught on fire....... NOT the LS stuff but the OEM Datsun harness....I guess it doesn't like new bits being added to it so it decided to fry itself. The shop has it and is currently working to get it ready. I am showing the car for StanceNation on 8-30. That is all...... Toying with the idea of a bigger blower as well.... but that is down the line as I am tight on funds now and pushing my business development over a toy. I have been in and out of town over the last few weeks so I have not had a chance to do much with the car. Carry on . -

I am picking up a load of parts in Dallas on Sunday. I have ordered at least 1 set of headlight buckets. Let me see if I have an extra 1 for you, as I bought a load in bulk.

If I were you focus on the south west..... more potential for rust free cars. I would say you should rent a car to be fully capable of moving around.

Twin cam head for the L6 from Derek at Datsunworks
texis30O replied to Derek's topic in Nissan L6 Forum
Any provisions for coil on plug ignition scenario? I was looking at the OS Giken head again and they have a coil on plug ignition that looks like it could work on this application as well.
