OK just as a background, on my 19th birthday I was given a car by my girlfriend. I had seen a red 240Z driving past me and I had mentioned how cool they look, so long story short, she went on ebay and bought me one. This car has been a huge problem for me, I love the look of the car and the way people have modified them so I was amazed when she told me that she bought me one. So off i went to pick up this car a 1978 280z ....which was 700 miles away from where I live!! On trailer rentals and fuel alone I spent much more then what she paid for the car....the sour taste is starting to come. I load up the car I was still happy, when I got home I parked it and waited for the weekend. The engine still ran pretty well just stuttered a little but still started at the first turn of the key. I started examining the car, mostly looking for rust spots and found that neither of the two fenders were conected to the car. Basicaly the rockers had rotted away and the bolts had just fallen off. Through the wheel wells you could see most of the engine, yes you can see right through my wheel wells! The front frame is somewhat non existant, and the floors look like something out of the Flintstones. But guys remember, this was a gift and I cannot just scrap it. I've been working slowly but surely and since most of the car is turning to dust when you touch it i have just been cutting it all up. So far i've replaced the floor pans, i just cut some 16 guage steel sheet and welded it to some L sheet that I welded to either side of the walls. I've replaced the rails under the floor with 16 guage aswell and used square tubing to make the front rails. So far its been a pain in the ass, and the worst part is that I am no where near complete! Putting this aside,
The reason I am here is to ask about the fuel injection, I am definately running a TEC3 unit. That is a guaruntee, it was promised as my next birthday gift. What I basically need to know is what i can throw out wiring and tubing wise. If you looked at my engine bay all you would see is unplugged wires and cracked tubes. I have an EGR head and everything is stock...what can i throw out. I will try to post some diagrams of stock engines. I f you guys can just circle and list what doesnt need to be used I would greatly appreciate it. Since i've come this far, I have the intention of making it non-egr and running a better fuel rail...so keep that in mind as you help.
I know its a crappy picture but if you would just circle what I could rip out and describe I would really really really appreciate it. Remember I will be using a TEC3, and am I willing to have the intake chopped up to remove the EGR, and am willing to run a better fuel rail. If any of the terms I used are wrong or dont make sense forgive me but i'm trying. Thanks in advance!
