  1. Has anyone replaced their clutch master and the stock washer bottle wouldn't fit back in? What bottle did you end up using?
  2. I used this stuff on mine about 10 years ago. The areas I patched still look great, only problem is the rest of the foam is 50 years old, so it eventually cracks in new and exciting places. If you're able to, get a dash from Hong Vu or one of the other ones supplying it so you don't have to go through pulling the dash again.
  3. I just ran across this, I can't believe it's been this long. Still love the Z. The only thing I have done to it in the past several years was recovering the Miata seats with upholstery from lseat.com. is this site still active?
  4. look around march 2014 posts. I ran the flexible lines around the back on a 78 280. Very tight, but it can be done.
  5. I have the Bruno knob controller and Saturn steering box. When you 1st start the car, it takes a second or 2 to come on, but after that, I have never noticed anything weird feeling about it. I have it set really low.
  6. There is a guy that sells a kit on one of the Z facebook pages that has all those parts to rebuild the hinges.
  7. Just push it as far up as possible and use a block to scribe the shape of the bottom of the car to it. Then get out the grinder.
  8. I used the eastwood on my car. It has the consistency of water, so cover under the car when you spray it because it will start coming out of all the holes, seams, cracks, etc.
  9. Hybridz facebook page for the chit chat? The forum for the data and info?
  10. Maybe someone on the Dastun Makers Group on facebook may have some?
  11. I just got some peel and stick closed cell from the hardware store that was the right thickness.
  12. I think this year was the pinnacle, I'm sorry I had to miss it because it will probably never be this good again. It was at a time of year with decent weather, not when its 150 outside, combined with Znationals and at Road Atlanta... what could possibly top that?
  13. Get a flat steering wheel with no dish, that's probably a good 2" right there.
  14. Theres a guy on youtube I saw a while back that says he road races his corvette. He had a nice setup, said it works well. All I can remember was he used this cap. http://www.eliteengineeringusa.com/clean-side-oil-separator/?fbclid=IwAR2WGZ9Lf5t0tKaDdAQg1YXPCqvKwETUDb7OfuIhG_4Or_PMXpM1ZetCEAk If I can find the guys vidoes, I'll post it here.
  15. 78 280z. Bought the TTT setup and had 250 front , 300 rear on konis. Felt too soft, swapped to 300 up front. It is slightly stiff but feels much better than the 250s. 250s are way too light for the rear. The shocks are probably around 2/3 compressed at ride height. Just bought 350s, haven't installed them to know if they are going to be too stiff, but at 1620 rear weight with me, spare, full tank, etc. it should be around 1/3 compressed at ride height.
  16. I also added flex pipes at the same time as the cats. 1 after each header, and i where it Ys back into single exhaust by the diff. I wish I would have cut my 3 bolt flange off and welded on V bands to my headers before I installed them. Without the flex pipes, the flange bolts would always loosen up on me. I would have to tighten them up several times a year. The flex pipes seem to have lessened that. I put V bands before the front flex pipes and after the rear one, so I can drop out the whole center section of the exhaust.
  17. I put 2 magnaflow high flow cats on mine, and it did cut down on the raspiness/drone and quieted the car slightly. Also lowered how much I smell like fumes after driving around in the car all day. Don't get a flowmaster muffler, these drone a lot.
