  1. Yup... I had to modify them a bit.....
  2. She now has a upgrade internally regulated alternator, flares, no rust on one door....
  3. It's been a long time since I started this thread but I thought I should post an update... Here she is as she looks today...
  4. i also bought these and they look great... i havent put them on yet but they look good. i need to get some hog rings and pliers and maybe some foam.
  5. over at v8nissans.com there is a guy building a vhpowered 240z ive been watching this for a while... http://www.v8nissans.com/forums/showthread.php?733-240z-vh45de-450z
  6. i like it... cant wait till i paint mine.
  7. Found it it was my alternator. I took it to get it checked out and it failed their test 3 times got a new one and I was on the road.
  8. Looks like u got some small holes... Make sure u treat both side of the metal and you should. You could just add a little filler to cover them up but definitely treat the metal with pot 15
  9. That's funny... I have the same issue.... Most people like it. They say its different and kinda funky but they like it then there goes the hands..
  10. There is a LHD one floating around here. I did a quick search and found it.
  11. Dude did u figure out ur problem? I think I have the same issue. My fuel pump will die then the car will die then it won't even crank over I have to let it COO off a little. I have a 260 l28 carburated and I think its that little tube thing behind the alternator. Alternator is also internally regulated.
  12. Ya they're usable I found some round glass in autozone for 2 something here is what I did. I took out the flat glass (it screws out) then I put the autozone mirror on and all you have to do is glue it in place and it works perfect. The mirror has a groove all around like it was meant to be there and it doesn't look like it was a mikey mouse job. I'm at work right now when I get home ill take more pics.
  13. I bought these mirrors off eBay the bad thing is the glass is flat. But I really like them. Here is a pic.
  14. Since I hadn't pit the center console back on the car I decided to fix the broken cracked parts with fiberglass...
  15. Clutch problem solved itook the car out for a test drive to see how it would drive and it needs a couple other things like an alternator,u joint,flashers relay or switch for the turn signals. Other than that it was great!!! Can't wait til its fully functional I'm even more pumped to work on it. I still haven't washed it though I want to sand and fix the rust before I wet it. I really appreciate evereyones help thank you all.
  16. Thanks you... I swaped out the rod to the new clutch master cylinder I have full travel of the pedal I still need to bleed them though
  17. Well I got it registered and I wanted to drive it today but that stupid clutch master cylinder I got from autozone the push rod is too short and won't fully engage the clutch. Dang I really wanted to drive it for my b-day today well we'll see tommorow.
  18. Today is a good day. I started the z for the first time not the way I wanted it to start but it ran. I think I have a bad ignition switch beause it won't start using the ignition switch it would just click somewhere by the fuse block. I checked all my grounds and still nothing. I finally used a screwdriver at the starter to check if it would turn over and it started. My conclusion is new ignition switch then go from there. Any other I deas?
  19. Well I took out the old flywheel and it was very mucho bad. I replaced the clutch and flywheel. Im still wondering what could of caused it to wear like that. Tomorrow I will install the slave cylinder and clutch master cylinder. After im done I will try and start it. Wish me luck
  20. Ha rust that's funny... I took a good look at my inside of my floor pans and found a bunch of that (cruddy) rust and on the pass side got a few holes about a nickle in diameter. The driver side has one about 3inches ling and half inch wide. The pass side frame rail is smashed like a beer can because I tried jacking it up and crush. Lots of rust. Ill replace part of the frame rail and parch those holes. I do have small holes on the pannels but not much I'm not too woried about those. I do have a welder and some welding experience (kind of) will post pix of it later.
  21. Ill be fixing her up and make her my daily driver.
