Actually just the 2300 I paid for it lol I've got a bunch o 240z parts with it so I've been swapping them over. It actually takes like 15 minutes to rip the intake and exhaust off lol.
Ps you still want that oil pan? Check the sale thread

Soooo, what have I done today...
I failed at tuning the carbs, found I have a blown head gasket and the rust on the floor is worse than I initially thought, and that the radiator is leaking. Face palm.... At least I put a bandaid on the rust on the roof to keep it from getting worse until I get a sander an a crapload of primer. Gotta figure out what I wanna do with the motor, at this point it's easier for me to get a good long block and swap everything over than doing the head
. Well see if I can find one for a good price. Today's been a pretty good downer, oh well I get payed this week so I'll figure out what I wanna do then. -
Can you get me a quote shipped to 94587 please?

Hi all, I'm looking for a good running L28E out of a 280z(x) in the SF bay area, I can pay extra if you can deliver, im in union city. LEt me know what you have. I don't need anything fancy, just a bare running long lock, I can transfer all the old accessories. Thanks in advance.
-
So I attempted to get the carbs tuned enough to get the car over to the shop an get ten properly done, in the process I found out that my poor 260 has a blown head gasket
Right in the back left corner
That being a big issue in my poor running motor I gave up and started attacking the paint. Sanding by hand sucks btw
-
I'm liking the seat covers, very era correct
-
Got some stuff on the s30 today, replaced my jammed lock cylinder with another one, no pictures of that, just the tamper screws were a butt to get out.
I then decided to paint the 240z tail panels. From this.
To this
I also got the car registered today finally $489!!! Fuuuuu back fees
Here's what the plate got down to, there's one more underneath, so 84
And by the time I was all done messing around it looked like this outside so I called it a day
-
Epic progress today! Got a battery an some gas, had to redo the firing order cuz it was all effed up from the previous owner, and.... Got it running!!!!
Here's a link o the video

Now I gotta change plugs, rotor and cap out and figure out how to tune the carbs cuz its running butt rich. Take it to work an align it cuz that's effed up to. But progress!!!!

So in all the S30 excitement recently I forgot to post an update for daily. I picked up an AEM truboost boost controller, I'm now happily running 10psi! Fun times. Turbo spools soo much quicker now, haven't really got to deep into the features but I'm happy for now.
-
10w-30 it is. I know everyone has their preferences but for te time being to get the car running I'll stick to what's factory
-
So I should be safe running some 10-30 for the time being? Or what would be "standard"?
-
Sweetness, so basically it's just trivial, as long as it lubes, could probably run KY in them hahaha. Thanks for the help guys.

I just got my su carbs on my 260 today and wanna know what kind of oil I need to put into them and how much, one of them is low on oil and needs to be topped off. I know it's noob question but carbs are alien technology to me lol.
Regards.

So I got some stuff done today
I got the 240z su's on
And the filter box, need some really long studs for the cover
Then I had lunch
And then I swapped out to the 240z turn signals and grill, gotta cut out the horn brackets because the center valance doesn't fit.
Now I need a battery and gas and I should be ready to test fire the motor.
-
I just swapped dash harnesses. Done. I have one for sale by the way, for an 82.
-
Dramatic difference? No. Just pop the bumper struts and weld it compressed. Then enjoy crashing into things without the 5mph cushion.
-
Exactly, Id rather just swap in and out, drop it on the floor and call it a day, just gotta figure out what to get with the core charge credit lol
-
Yeah, but this way there's no downtime for me, and they offer cores for your old ones. Ionno. Cuz otherwise I'll need to find another set of strut tubes and junk.

Leaving the L28 in running carbs for now, might switch to injection later, slammage, I've been looking at T3 coilovers since they're bolt in. And I gotta fit my 15x10's on it lol. Get a lip and a wing, some paint. Honestly Ionno how crazy I'm gonna go with the motor I just wanna get it drivable right now.
-
Here's some better pics
L28 boiii!! Lol
And the junk in the trunk
-
Lol who cares, I don't need to smog it lol. Payed $2300
-
So I've finally got my hands on an S30 chassis. I'm now part of the cool kids club! Lol.
Just picked it up tonight.
Here's what I have. '74 260z with an L28 and a 5 speed.
Aside from a crapload of extra parts it's reletivly stock. Currently doesn't run but just needs some carb work.
Here's a picture.
This is going to take over the s130 build for the time being, at least until I get it running an junk.
Look out for more pics and updates.

. Well see if I can find one for a good price. Today's been a pretty good downer, oh well I get payed this week so I'll figure out what I wanna do then.
