    you mean the thing on the end of the inake manifold? thats the pop off valve, it's used as a saftey feature. it pops off if you overboost to save the motor.
  2. i made a custom grill for my 280z using expanded aluminum mesh. it looks similar to the 432R grill but more flush because it comes out to the edge of the surrounding body, it also hides the 280z type turn signals so they aren't visible until you turn the signals on. i'll post some pics of it when i get it anodized/painted this weekend.

    So far they are holding up! By the way I put all new Brute Force u-joints in. Better safe than sorry. 355 sbc/700r4 with 87 lsd 3.70 combo. No breaky breaky yet!

    so will the '87 3.70 lsd bolt directly into a 280z if you decide not to switch to cv's and stay with u-joints?
  4. -euro bumpers are the ones you want to get. they only have 2 holes in them, and no rubber strips like the 240z's had.

     

    -70-72 has bumpers that sit close to the body. In 73 they changed to a larger bumper that sits a little further away from the car.

     

    -240z's dash is different from 260z and 280z, but i have sat in a 240z with a 280z dash so i believe they are interchangeable.
