I washed My car today, and it looks absolutely Beautiful in the sun.

heres a thought... what if there was less than a gallon of gas, and the pump was pushing air into the fuel line too, would that cause a pressure drop like that? I only have a gallon of gas in the car right now so I was wondering if that would also be a problem. Monday I am putting more gas in the Z.

both windows are now perfect

worked on it today for 4 hours...(2 hours each side) they are now perfect.

way ahead of you there buddy. I pulled the panel off yes, but unfortunalely no pics my digital cam went out on me. sorry.

then how would I align the glass so it rolls up properly? The Haynes manual just tells me its the opposite of removal.......but it skips the details and Info that I really need, and searching for.

If I keep the car off and turn the switch to the fuel pump on the fuel pressure stays at 38 psi on my guage? but when the car is running the guage slowly drops and stays at 4-8 psi, and the car seems to run good It backfires a little, but it runs and idles at 850 rpm's

yeah thanks, and it is a very good feeling to step back and look at your car and think....( wow I can't believe I was able to do this to MY car) I have no experience in painting cars or doing bodywork...but strangely it seems like it came naturaly to me. Yeah there are bubbles, but not only in a few places, and I have 3 runs on the hood, and over the rain channel on the drivers side. I did everything on a $1200 dollar budget too $500 on paint and body supplies, door glass, and underbody coating, and the rest in parts for the car $300 on brand new injectors. I

I started and let my 75 280z today and let it idle for a little while, and I noticed somethin....... My oil pressure was about a 1/4 inch from the 0 lineI was wondering if this is normal or not. If not than I think I have bigger problems that my fuel pump.

on my 75 280z the injectors were firing, and I could start the car with a switched 12volt source to the fuel pump, I pulled the EFI relay off the connectors, and put it bak on the connectors, and the injectors stopped workin. I later found out that one of the wires in the plastic connector was being pushed out by the pin, so I simpily pushed it back in the plastic, and WAMMO the injectors work again

Here is the link of the paint kit I used....I had to buy three kits to do the whole car. I believe it is flat black After I layed the paint down. and saw the gloss, I started to think I should Have bought a black with a gloss, but after taking the car out of my garage for 2 days, and seeing it in the sun I realized the paint is really growing on me and I LOVE IT even more than I though I would. So I am super happy. Now I think its time to get a job so I can insure, and plate it so I can finally drive it further than my driveway.

my 75 280z coupe drivers side window i can't allign it good enough the window looks like the back part of the window is up too high, and the front is too low, I can't push the rear of the window down anymore, and i can't pull the front of the window up to get it level. I am at a complete loss, and I don't know how to allign it properly. Can anyone shed some light on this subject for me. PLEASE

I started my car, and kept the fuel pump switch that I wired in turned on, and I set the fast idle screw to let the motor idle at 850 RPM's, then I checked the fuel pressure guage, and it was reading about 4-8 PSI Is that supposed to be correct, or should the fuel pressure after the fuel filter be higher??? If it is supposed to be between 4-8 psi, then I guess I temporarily fixed my problem. I have had no luck in tracing wires, because I don't want to screw something up. I know I should open my Haynes manual, but I don't have it with me otherwise I would.

Here is the car completely painted, I do have a few bubbles, but I expected that, because I have never painted a car before EVER. But I am still happy on the way it looks. From 5 feet away you really can't tell if there are imperfections in the paint. here is a link to my photobucket account check out my pics of the car http://s296.photobucket.com/albums/mm195/hybridzmaster/ Oh does anyone know how to correctly allign the door windows? It starting to be a pain in the A** I just can't figure it out.

I am having the same problem. So should I take the glass off of the metal piece its bolted on to, then install the glass last? I'm so very confused. I've been messing with it off and on for a week now, and I still can't get it right.

a6t8vw That spoiler looks good on that z its perfect. do you have a model number or where can i get that one, and is it carbon fiber?

still scratching my brain....so not really. But the car is completely painted so all the bodywork is complete (Pics coming tomorrow in one of my old threads and going on photobucket), and the car is put back together. going to my house tomorrrow morning to finish, and figure this out the problem

they could have at least made as much as scrap price for the car if they just sold the glass, and other parts off of the car

It was horrible to watch as this Z was crushed to death. Its too bad that no one could save it from its demise.

Finished painting the whole car the other day. Hopefully i will get pictures up soon. just recieved my door window the other day, and installed it, but it wont roll all the way up, i have to allign it. And I am putting the car back together. I also broke all of the bolts on the headlight buckets that attatch it to the fender so i am drilling out the old bolts and putting new ones in an that pretty much wraps up all the paint andbody work I have done to my car.

you all have a point there. guess I wount wax the paint. I just wanted some extra protection from the weather. Now that I hear it waxing flat paint it does seem stupid to do.
