twinturbos

im having the same problem too, but after driving my car for 2 weeks i got used to it. although, getting in and out is a lil tougher. I am 6'0 and using the TRS wides.

yea, i was thinking the same. the style is something i really want on my car, but the 2 in piping in the rear would seem like a big no-no. i just thought someone would have done this mod already with no probs on their turbo motor.

have any of yall used this muffler with your turbo motor? im debating on whether to purchase this or the hks turbo muffler.

have yall ever heard of these guys? check out their ebay listing http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NISSAN-L26-L28E-L28ET-260-280Z-280ZX-5-139-H-BEAM-ROD_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33623QQihZ008QQitemZ180274927616QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW i cant seem to find anything about them on google.

when i called napa, autozone, advance auto, and pep boys, they all laughed at me. 280zx?? whats a 280zx? they came turbo?? All but one store... O'reilys. they not only had the gaskets, but had almost every part for my rebuild. rod bearing, main bearing, timing chain, tensioner, and oil pump. If they do not have it, they would put in an order to have it made and all their prices are comparable to internet price. i bought all of my gaskets for $50. All fel-pro.

god i hate yall..... ok, its going to be removed. as soon as i swap in the new tranny, ill pry apart that old one.

i recently bought a T5 tranny so im not too worried about it anymore.

it will be removed. it must!!!!

Last night, i bled the calipers while it was layin on its back cause i couldnt bend the lines to bleed it upside down with the nipples up. I noticed an improvement there. But i havent made enough progress to where i feel at least 80 or 100% confident in the brakes. 2 last thing I am going to do is check to see if my MC is adjustable and fool around with it. If I cant make that work, then go back to the original 280z MC.

most of what you said is un-true and i would not be posting on hybridz if i did not have any other alternative. dont you ever say i do not know how to feed myself. but like you said lets keep this offline.

well you never mentioned that you changed out the tranny fluids and you dont like to pick up your phone after i purchased the car......

thanks intuit. i did already did all of the above. i initially pumped the pedal 5 times, than decided to pump it 10+ times. master cylinder is in good condition. no leaks. however, i did came across this article http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=113035&highlight=brake+issues&page=2 ima probably try the method of flippin the calipers upside down and bleeding it that way. if that doesnt work, then trying to adjust the MC. if that doesnt work, ima probably go back to a stock 280z MC and see if taht does the trick.

one of the things i checked for when i did the test to see if there was bubbles in the brake master cylinder was a leak, i did not see any. what do you consider is the proper bleed sequence?

my setup is the 280zx master cylinder(15/16) with the larger and smaller reservoirs bolted to the stock brake booster. i dont think the brake booster has anything to do with the issue at hand. i drove the car around before i did the upgrades and the brake pedals felt fine. i dont think i misplaced the reservoirs(the larger for the front and smaller for the rear). with the car off, the brakes would feel fine, but when i turn the car on, the brake pedal would submerge and get spongey. I also broke in the brake pads with bout 10+ stops at 30mph.
