Haniel20 give me a call, I am in Miami and I have a z with l28et. 786-382-8587

Idk how far you are, but there is an ld28 on Atlanta craigslist.
Thanks for the heads up Matt. I actually spoke to the owner of that engine I believe. He is not trying to ship and I am really just interested in a crank not the whole engine due to higher shipping cost.
-
Bump still looking for a crank please pm or text if you have one for sale.

I am looking for the rear strut mount isolators to the 240z, Please reply or PM if you have a set available. Thanks!

Miky, I am just looking to get these 17s functional and looking right for street, I have plans of an rb swap after the car is out of the shop and when that is in I will have a separate set of 15s with drag tires.
The look I want on the car with these wheels is clean, I am not big on stretch tires but if I must go that route to run the wheels then I am open to it.
-
Haajeehaa so saying the offset is good at the addition of the 10mm extra that you suggested would the tire size I had in mind work? Could I go any wider?
-
I see;)
Coilovers will give you more space to play with, thats why I asked.
Yup, you'll need an extra 10mm for the rears to work (about -15 offset on 10"). I would recommend measuring this aswell as my comparison is on Arizona Z coilovers. The fronts will be ok at -8 but they will look sunk-in compared to the rear. That's why I recommend thicker spacer in front.
The camber kit won't solve any issues. Your issue is on the inner side of the fender towards the strut assembly. That space won't change whether you give it camber or lower it.
I'm not sure about what your thoughts are on the stance of the car. If you're going to run flares a flush setup does look the best. For this about -20 to -25 offset on the 10" is required. Do the math for the fronts yourself;)
The stock fenders can run the same width/offset wheels both front and rear as the track (for the 280z atleast) is the same, so you can space the fronts to match the rear.
It's really a gamble if you're purchasing parts without knowing the measurements yourself...

I did a mock up of the flares with the wheels this past weekend to determine what size spacers i needed. by eye the wheels seemed to be right about flush with the flares at the 1 and 1.5 inch spacing. i need the spacers to bolt the wheels up and compress suspension to see if it hits then i guess i can measure the remaining spacing at that point.
the reason for the camber idea is because the back still looks about stock height after the lowering spring install, so an extra 3/4 drop would be nice. and second if i need any extra adjustment for tire wear.
as a side note do you know if there will be any rub on the front at full turn?
-
I would also go for a lot thicker spacer in the front to let it even with the rear. Go for about 10mm less offset on the fronts, so you'll be at 8,5 et-25 front and 10 et-15 rear. This will require flares both front and rear.
In my experience 10" rears without flares are not doable if you're not running a lot of stretch, negativ camber and pulled fenders...
just some background info on why i am asking about this rather than going to the car. I have the car at a friends resto shop 40 miles from home so its not quite accessible at all times. I am ordering parts as I go so if I can get some good info from members rather than having to wait for things to get here it will speed up the process exponentially.
I have a set of flares that are going on the car so i can space the wheels out some. I have the 1 inch (25.4mm) and 1.5 (38mm) inch spacers on the way so I am just trying to see if thats enough or if ill need extra spacing.
Its on eibach drop springs at the moment, the rear didnt drop much but the front did. ( unless it has to settle since the rears are progressive springs)
so the fronts are 17x8.5 with a +30 offset. the spacers i have for the front are 1.5inch (38mm) so that would give me a -8mm and the rears are 17x10 +20 offset and the 1 inch spacers (25.4mm) giving me a -5.4mm so id need about 10mm more to be on the safe side you say?
I am also planning on getting the MSA street camber kit for the front and back which will give it 1.5 degree all around but also lower the rear an extra 3/4 inch. will this clear or do i also need to space extra if i plan on doing this?

9rider thanks for the comment but I've been searching the answer to my question for about now and not just on hybridz. If you've found it somewhere then link the thread but don't just bash.
Domzs, I have spacers that I ordered like I mentioned in the post. 1.5inch front and 1 inch rear so that will put the wheels onto negative offset by a few mm (somewhere between 8-10) but my question still stands if this is enough or would I need to go wider? And I also have flares ready to go on the car to compensate for the rim poke

Hello Hybridz, I have been looking around the forum for answers to my questions but I don't find anyone that's run a setup like mine. I have a 78 280z I purchased a set of eibach lowering springs and now I plan on running a set of ssr rs reps 17x8.5 +30 front and 17x10 +20 rear. My question is I have heard that these cars need negative offset. I also purchased a set of spacers 1.5 inch for the front 1 inch for rear. Will this be enough to clear the wheels with lowered suspension? Also what tires can I run? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Bump, need wiring from the compressor clutch, pressure switch, and micro switch mounted in the cabin

Hello, I am looking to buy the complete AC system for a 280z. Prefer a working bolt on but will take something that needs repair/ rebuild if the price is right. I will also buy partial kits if some parts are missing but I am interested in as complete as possible. Reply to post PM or TXT/Email 786-382-8587 perez1318@comcast.net

Message or reply to thread if you have a roof skin for sale. I am located in Miami FL. Ideally I can get one close by ( within reasonable driving distance) but if the price is right and you're willing to ship that works too.
