  1. I have the JTR v8 radiator mount kit, they aren't making the anymore from what they told me, took 3 months for them to get them to me, then I sold the project, still got them. Had them professionally painted black. $90 + shipping
  2. Ya Rockauto said they had stock, until I ordered it. Every place I tried was doing the send it in and rebuild game. I didnt really wanna run the risk of it getting lost in shipping or damaged and then have nothing! The shipping tracking from ups shows it enroute and should be here tomorrow!
  3. so after looking for 2 days straight on every website and tip I could find on trying to purchase a replacement m/c for my 79 zx......... I called Summit Racing and low and behold I bought the last one they had in entire stock! I cannot believe how hard these are to get? and it was only $30!!!!! The guy who helped me said that they are almost exstinct! I would try with them if you cant find one, who knows, they might get some more!
  4. Are you sure those werent 40 series you had? Tire rack doesnt show a 45 to compare specs
  5. Cool, maybe ill look into 50 series. Btw, we are twins, mine is flat black also! lol
  6. I have a decent pair of 275/60/15 street tires and was wondering if they will fit my stock 79zx, I have 15x8 0 offset wheels. Dropping a v8 in it with a t5 and think it would hook better with that much tire and look mean! Lemme know guys, pics would be awesome
  7. Yes the heater, h/l switch, and turn signals are my concern, everything else should be straight forward. I did buy a factory Datsun shop manual off ebay, the wiring diagrams are awesome, should help. And I got it for $25 shipped
  8. Its actually not gonna be an ls1 now, I got an awesome deal on a 355 sbc with a t5....... to be continued
  9. Anybody using a painless harness for their chevy v8 carbed swap? Is it worth it or should I just cut all the unused wires out of the factory harness? Which painless kit are u using? Not much zx info when I searched. The jtr book doesnt really help with a zx, any diagrams or write ups on this I am missing? Thanks
  10. I have a complete, new and unopened JTR v8 engine and trans mount conversion kit for a great price, does that help decision???? ZX with a v8 is the best zx in my opinion
  11. I got a complete set with the trans crossmember
  12. Wow that Pro Billet frees up alot of space!
  13. Hey guys, starting to pick up parts for my v8 swap in my 79 280zx, and I was wondering, I have a 400hp carbed 355 with an hei distributor........ Is it worth buying the smaller style msd dist for space or will I have enough room with the hei? Pics would be great too...... Thanks for your input
  14. I will, I bought some black leather seats out of a 03 Hyundai Tiburon, ill see what kind of fabbing I will be doing
  15. The car sits so high cuz the motor is out, with a 355 and t5 in it, it will come down, but I do plan on 1" lowering springs, should even things back out.
  16. Hey guys, I am looking to do a front seat upgrade with as close to bolt in as possible. I have searched but almost all info is for all others but the 280zx....... Any help?
  17. True Roger, I just hate the ugly front and rear stock bumpers on the zx, I will find some from a newer zx, the body kit style.
  18. Akira, Im pretty sure they have them in 16", and Whisky, lol
  19. Aluminum, 4.5 bs, I had to sand the powdercoating off the front hub hole to fit properly but it took like 2 minutes, no complaints.
  20. I bought some STR wheels off ebay and they look pretty good, $400 shipped, and I got some Kuhmo 225/50/15 tires from Discount for $288, really good deal to me!!!! Then I took the ugly front bumper off, what do u guys think???
  21. Awesome, thanks! What kinda b.s are you running on the rear? 4.5"? Size of rear tire? Stock setup suspension in the rear?
  22. Anybody got any pics of a zx with Weld wheels, 15x8 and 15x3.5 runners?
  23. I am wondering if anybody is running 15x8 and 15x4 Weld Draglites on their 280zx's? Pics would be great, I am assuming that 4.5" bs will do the trick?? Any help would be great
  24. still needing parts?
