  1. looks like Lunar240z and jmortensen both have done this, but I've not seen any follow up with how happy they are with the setup, how happy are you wiht your master cylinder sixe selection and the increased leverage position, I'm thinking this is what I want to do with my autocross car, I contacted tilton and with my stock pedal ratio of 4:1 they recomend 7/8 front and 13/16 rear masters, just wanted to collect thought form those who've done this
  2. I don't recall the actual lenght of the housings being different but the struts themselves are longer on the 280 IIRC, the 280Z is made fo thicker metal so the ID is smaller
  3. 55 lbs/min seems high for a to4b? a to4e flows 53 lbs/min and if you've ever had then side by side the O4e is noticibley larger, whatever the flow cpacity keep in mind to achieve that flow it's gonna take more than 14psi, honestly for the boost level it sounds pretty decent

    l28ET TRANNY Q.

    I'm rpretty sure the ca trans falls into the same group as the ka and vg trannies, they can be made to work with the bellhousing swap, if you can locate a rpopper trans form ann L series you's save yourself lots of drama
  5. don't forget the custom driveshaft, I didn't care for the angle it placed the trans at, I upgraded to the T5
  6. did the pedal have as much stroke in the donor chassis? what bore is the master? what brakes are you running? remember it's about moving fluid, so that 10mm stroke wih the 15/16th master might be sufficient but maintaining stroke with a smaller master will move less fluid
  7. I don't remember my exact offfset or backspace but my CCW' 17x11 front and 17x12 rears are the backspace suggested by john at CCW, there is actually room for another half inch of backspace on both
  8. also interested in a front end, in a 280yz flavor
  9. Denny is a very tallented builder and nice guy, that car was a site to behold, the Vette IFS was blended into the crx frame rails seemlessly, just amazing, and CLEAN, well every cars he builds is clean
  10. I welded up some of the extra hoses in mine, I left one lower and one upper, I "T"'d thise lines together and ran a single line into the filler nick and removed the expansion tank, when I sumped and sealed my tank, I do get some starvation if I have less than a half tank on a long sweeper, I drilled many holes int he tank above the sump, I should have only drilled one in the middle to reduce the abulity of the fuel to slosh out of the sump
  11. I have a walker turner drill press
  12. no room for COP's? doing away with the COP ignition?
  13. I believe the FP guys are running in the 600ln/in rates all around, I spoke with some people at GC before setteling on 440 lb/in all around, I decided I didn't liek it and changed to 350's int eh rear and love it, a lot fo it is personal preference
  14. I actually stacked 2 on each side to get the clearance I needed for the oil pan (still about half an inch lower than stock mounts) and no I don't find them to be too rough, but the car isn't really street driven and yes the rubber dries up and cracks over time, I'm about due for some new pucks, but I started with the oldes ugliest pucks in my buddies puck bag you could alwys buy some derlin
  15. check your local craigslist for an older floor unit, people tend to get tired fo these things sitting aroudn adn sell them barley used for a fraction of the cost new, if you are lucky you might find a heavy duty older model, i got a walker turner (fromt he 50's IIRC) from a shut down shop with a new motor on it, it's beig and heavy and quiet and smoothe, and I paid $75
  16. why not actual hockey pucks? thats what I'm using on my Z31, I just drilled a hole through them and ran a 5/8 grade 8 bolt
  17. yes the crappy points distributor will work on the l28, but if you look around you can find the instructions to use the electronic distributors which will allow you to rev higher without that annoying sputter up high

    Vg30dett

    I prefer the vg30et, the de require 90% more effort, drama and cost to get an extra 10% of result
  19. I'm running 1 bar of boost on my vg30e with a t3O4E, ebay vertical i/c with dsm injectors wb tuned msns
  20. it doens't change rideheight and if the VQ is lighter it should be sitting taller up front anyhow a 1" spacer would move the inboard side of the lca's down a bit, prettu much the same as running 1" lowering springs, I agree it's no ideal suspension geometry but I'd rather do that than cut a hole in the hood and it's rare to see a Z32 at stock rideheight anymore
  21. might want to take a look at the ficv, might be sticking, or just dirty
  22. the dodge coil pack allows you to use regular plug wires, thats why so many of us run them, easier than getting the special ford plug wires
