Im in the process of megasquirting my 78 280z but there is a couple of issues. Im trying to get it to run fuel and spark. So I tryed to flash the MS unit with the MS2/extra firmware but for some reason it wont work. I followed the instructions. Selected the correct COM, Turned off the unit, put the jumpers on, Turned on the unit but I always get the same message. Anyone know why I am getting this message? I can no longer communicate the the MS unit. I followed the instructions here: http://www.msextra.com/manuals/MS_Extra_Software_Manual.htm#insfirm

I have no experience with it but I have heard lots of good things in the ls1 forums. I will eventually get the system after a couple upgrades. Let us know how it goes!

THink the wife will buy that?

Its not that big of a scene. Maybe 15mins. I doubt it will affect anything.

Yes sir.

Haha good point. Well at least Michelle Rodriguez is back. Not the best actor but shes to hot in person. Dont understand why they "butchanize"(is that a word?) her in that film with the wardrope though.

WHo cares? Theres z cars in the movie. That should be enough reason to go see the movie! ("the movie is allowed to be bad if it has z cars in it") Usual rule of thumb I go by.

Oh and those are the stock 280z wheels btw.

Yes you can. I did. Some small mods and its no problem. Also its not very hard to swap to the bumpers on a 280z. Could have been a "converted" 240z.

Those look like the ones i bought. I installed them with no problem. The drop wasn't massive either. Maybe an inch or two.

*Off topic.* You know, I noticed that the first post in this thread did not have even one bit of punctuation or capitalization at all (not to mention that nobody even thought to correct him and the post is 3 weeks old). Kinda funny. I got chewed up by all the admins when I would forgot to punctuation every once and a while and my posts never even looked half as bad as that first post (the admins also seemed to notice MY POSTS quite quickly). I guess when your an admin it makes it ok huh? That being said, this does look like a great product that would extremely helpful when towing a vehicle. (By the way this isn't an attack on the poster, just a reminder that the rules should apply to everyone!)

Yea its definitely something that should be done soon. When they do break they love to beat into the undercarriage, control arms and anything in they're way. Ask me how i know.

The slicks help, but u can do it on street tires. I have. Twice. Im also in the 300hp range. Also doing the cv conversion when the time is right.

I have had no problem with the eBay ez wiring harness. I have all three of my z cars wired using it. Its very easy to use, very cost efficient and every in all my z cars works perfect with the harness. Keep it. Its great. In fact my cousin just ordered one for his 240sx with an ls1 motor. Dont know why he needs it but Im going over to help him tommrow. EDIT: The build is awesome btw. Glad some progress is getting done. Cant go wrong with an ls. You wont be disappointed.

That was sick. Sound great. Specs on the cam please.

Glad I could help. That link has helped me with all my z cars wiring issues.

http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/electrical.htm Theres the link to schematics on z cars. Pick your year. Should tell you which wire goes where.

Was planning on going, but ended up taking the z apart again, don't really want to be there z less either.

Id rock one of my z (one of them anyway). Kinda screams lotus.

Yea it will be soon seen on a z.

Im not really worried about the rust to much. Im just doing it to check straightness of the hub. Planning on getting it nickel plated after machining. That should get rid of the rust during the process.

Look at the bright side. At least you could remove your fender and replace it easily. I couldn't exactly do that.

No way this just happened again. Same wheel on the same side too. Wheels are haunted........ Sorry to hear that man!

Found the answer. Heres the thread. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=109578&highlight=lathe+hub

Yea I know this thread is old but did you end up machining them? Im in the same spot right now and also want to check the hubs for straightness. If you did how much should they be machined? .010?
