Taking a long shot ...looking for one of those Lsds already installed in a case ready to go.

I know there's not many of these around ...got one and just wondering what the price might be ...I think it came only in the 88 SS version

^^^^ thanks for the tip !...im gonna have to spend more time on OZC ....i never saw a stroker motor for sale on there.

^^^ hey Ryan who does your engine work ? I'm up in Ottawa and that motor looks nice ...clean install too ! Could you recommend anybody ? You dyno that motor yet ?

They need to make a white tee with a black z ...hello black Zs rule !!!!

Where did you get those stands ?

^^ hey just saw this ....there CCWs

From my research the earlier the z and the least molested ....are the ones that get big money .So a fully stock 70 240z will fetch more then my fully stock 74 260z or even a monster 600hp 78 280z . So grabbing one of the first Zs ever built and is still original ....is where the money is in the collector Z market ......again from my research .

Yeah for real lol ......finally found the problem !!! now that summer is almost over lol

lol thanks good to know what I have ....I wonder if I could hang it off my 2.6L lol

Ok so it turns out it was a fuse in my fusible link box this whole time .... now to figure out whats melting this guy....ive started by buying a new fuse holder and fuse and see how quickly it happens again ....im wondering if its the new starter i put in ...because thats the only change ive made along with a new coil .

I acquired this turbo and it's in really good shape ...no shaft play ....had the turbine housing attached to it ...curious what I could ask for it

Here is my late year 260z

Feel better now ? lol JJ.....hey I do not live to far from you... I am up in Ottawa....always looking to swap parts or what not .

so after my above post ...35 minutes later...after cool down ...the car got all power back and started right up !!!.....anybody have this issue before ?.

OK so i put the old starter back in my car and im still having the same problem .......started no problem today cold....drove it to work ...shut it off immediately.....tried to start it back up right away ....and nothing ....no fuel pump.....no click ...no door chime ...nothing! its acting like there was no battery in the car i..........tried 20 minutes later and still nothing!!!.....am i the only one who has had this type of problem before? im at a loss ....is there a relay that can be acting up when it gets hot ?....anything along those lines?

^^no not specifically ....all im stating is the ad red zed turbo posted up was of a used TRUST manifold ...which is very possible to get at that price if you know where to look on japanese websites....in america they sell for about 1200 bucks ...the brown HKS manifolds will sell for 650 usd state side ......in japan there are many guys selling used REAL trust /hks manifolds for much cheaper because there cheaper to get in japan. Like red zed was stating as will I ....dont get fooled by stateside prices ....if you know where to look on japanese websites and are able to translate ...you will be able to find a plethora of used REAL quality parts for much cheaper then USA!!! For example just go to rhdjapan website ...they mark there stuff up alot but if you compare there kameari prices to kameari usa....you will see exactly what i mean and to stick with what red zed was posting is .....look in japan before you spend huge bucks on the same part in usa .....hes right and i thank him for showing us that to help us save money. Now im sure theres usa retaillers here who dont like to see threads like these but its the truth. Theres a zed dedicated company in my neck of the woods that gets skids of r200 longnoses straight from japan and sells them here for what everybody sells them for ....650-800 usd.....so if hes selling them at that price... i can guarantee you he has a japanese connection where he is getting them at a much lower price then we see. Most people keep these findings a secret and red zed turbo was just being nice and sharing.

You have a point for sure ....but I was under the impression that even the good quality parts from Japan are still cheaper if you can find them . I find that parts from retail stores in Japan are marked A lot less then states side retail stores selling the same parts . So I would imagine finding a "Craigslist" type store selling used quality parts for cheap is quite possibly !

The header in question is coming from yokohama japan ...idk why you guys keep referring to chinese made headers......imo japan quality and china quality are two different ends of the spectrum.

Last time a saw one of those headers for sale it was on here like 2 years ago and it sold for a good price then at 650 just for the header ... http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/114922-rare-1x-trustgreddy-turbo-manifold-2x-hks-turbo-manifold/ And i have not seen one for sale since !....400 for the header plus a turbo and downpipe ....looks like a great deal ! The thing that i cant figure out is the header in the upgarage photo has welds everywhere and the photo in the link i provided doesnt even show welds anywhere ...can this be a fake copy of a trust header?

i got a click and it sounded like it came from the starter ....I will try out what you said ...but after I got the click I tried again and got nothing and then I lost even the door chime when I put the key in . I then went inside ate dinner. Car had a chance to cool down . Went to start it and it started right up ...I'm talking like instantly not even a hesitation ...love it !

So I got the chance to spend time with my car today ...got in it and it started right up like a brand new car ....drive for 30 minutes went back home to the garage . Tried to start it now that it was hot and..... @ new zed ......It's confirmed its a click I get .....at first then I went back outside tried it again and I was getting nothing ...but it's an extremely hot day here ...we got a heat warning .

^^^ it does nothing, i will pay more attention to see if it actually makes a clicking noise ....i will wait maybe 10 minutes and it will fire .....and it acts this way everytime its hot .....never any trouble starting it first shot when its cold.

Just bought an 82 N/A 280 5 spd and need the shifter stick.
