  1. I sprayed this pistons down with somd WD-40 and removed the radiator to move my crankshaft. Was a little stiff at first and had to pop it but it was a good pop because my pistons now move. STILL HAVEN'T CRANKED THOUGH. I now have to put my new clutch in. Btw, should there be anymore liquids I should be worried about? Like I see all these plastic containers but they're all empty and I don't know if I should put new fluids in or even what type of fluids I should put it in them.
  2. Thanks guys for all the help and suggestions!! I also need to find an air flow meter for it where could one be found?
  3. I sold the Zx Blu. Thanks for the tips guys, sounds like I've got something to do this week! Btw, what's the best way to clean out the gas tank?
  4. 1977 280z that hasn't been running since 86. I don't think it'd be a good idea to try and crank the motor as is, what should I do?
  5. Got this as a project car and pretty much a first car.

  7. I need to get the whole gear out now so that I can see what I need to rebuild/replace.
  8. How do I get my axles out? Figured out the gears are pretty broken as I took the cap off and big chunks of metal were just sitting at the bottom of the casing.
  9. For now I just need to get a look inside to view the damage, thanks for all the tips!!
  10. Yeah from the back. I already started, figured out something in there's broken after I took the oil cap out and there were shards of metal everywhere. Only problem is the damn mount, I have no idea how to get it out. It's got a screw in through the middle and then the sides so it's near impossible to take out.
  11. Might do a r200 swap and CV axles, found a guy selling both for cheap near me. Only thing is I don't know how I should do it.
  12. Ah, okay. Well there's SOMETHING wrong with it, when I try and drive the car I hear metal clanking and sometimes it just stops like I slammed on the brakes or something (but I didn't) and so it's just been sitting until I decide on what to do.
  13. Also, the differential in this thing is either broken/non-functional. Should I replace it or upgrade? Is it an easy job or do I need professional work done? I'm wanting to do a 5 speed swap, where to start? What would I need to do? QUESTIONS, QUESTIONS, QUESTIONS!!!
  14. Lmfao!! Thanks man, I'll try that out.
  15. Ehh, don't like it. I kinda want to leave it open like the s30. Nothing else.
  16. My pockets fall out my pants, I'm broke. xD But I'll check out the kit.
  17. What would be the price range for a custom front bumper? Such as getting like a chrome bar across the front or fiberglass. Just as the 240z concept.
  18. Well that sucks. I already took the whole bumper off!
  19. I've kinda gotten attached to mine already, is there no other possible way? >_<
  20. I want to know how I could convert the front to a 240z front, along with the rear. Can I just purchase the front bumpers or do I have to get them custom?
  21. Hey guys, I'm new here and new to Z's. I just got an 83 280zx passed down to me as a first car and need a bit of help and suggestions on some things.
