I'm posting this in ALL 3 threads regarding the Z32 transmission swap We can still use the FACTORY speedometer with the Z32/RB25 5-speed transmission swap!! Mike Rowe was able to find a mechanical speedometer pinion assembly (Nissan part number 32702-02G17) that came from a Nissan Hardbody (D21) truck... with the manufacture years (1986.5-1994) This replaces the electric speedometer output.. and converts it to a mechanical speedometer output!! Incredibly.. the speedometer cable bolts right up to the new pinion assembly and it works!! I think it cost me around $46 from Nissan =)

I received the part... and unbelievably.. the part bolts RIGHT up to the factory speedometer cable!! I'm stunned.. something actually worked the first time I hooked it up!! Excellent excellent news!! Now I can use the factory speedometer! yeppie!!

well.. i defin over thought that one ughm.. lets pretend I didnt say what I said

*brake line kit* is the proper spelling.. might want to change the title so in the future people can find the thread using proper spelling.

I've noticed some of the schools valedictorians and incredibly talented engineers and unbelievably gifted individuals have no "street sense" I've always been blown away how dumb and retarded they can be. Even the simplest tasks in life and everyday common sense occurrences seem close to impossible. Book smart but that's it. They be street stupid ha.

sounds like Acceleration Enrichment's possibly? I also have slight issues with my car stumbling too.. are you TPS or MAP accel tuned? I dont think it would be the turbo at all.. if you had a turbine jet engine I would say its a symptom of compressor stall.. but in an automotive application this doesn't apply Symptoms in a turbocharger in a recip engine are not as wild as jet engine stalls.. but a sudden surge or "stall" in performance is applicable

uh oh .. no muffler?? especially in a stripped interior Z? going to be NOISEY!!!! Keep in mind Austin is going to school full time and the car is kept at another house.. give him a break

I've read so many posts with issues regarding the Wildwood (AZZcar brake setup) ... are these even worth it or should I be looking elsewhere for a better brake package?

i take it I am the only one who enjoys the sound of flutters?? reminds me so much of WRC cars... since they don't use BOV's or bypass valves all you hear is turkey calls.. mmm yummy

Dave, he is looking for a Z33 adapter... oops!! Only Z32 transmission kits and adapters are available.. there are no Z33's that I know of.

http://www.zccjdm.com sells tow hooks for Z's!! $34!! http://www.zccjdm.com/catalog.php/azcarbum/dt55266/pd1761636/240Z_FRONT_REAR_TIE_DOWN_KIT_

I am running an open 3.54 R180 from the '78 automatic drivetrain Fuel > http://www.putfile.com/pic/7937112 Spark > http://www.putfile.com/pic/7937114 AFR's under boost remained from 11.2-12.3 AFR in all gears.. no detonating In regards to shifting, I would would at 6,200 RPM I just realized that my rear shocks were set to (3) out of 5 on the tokico illuminas.. which might have been too stiff!! My launch consisted of a 3,000 RPM, no brake or clutch applied... light turned green and i feathered the clutch and throttle for an attempt of minimizing wheel-spin. My e-brake is temporarily disabled lol.. and I was too nervous to try to hold the foot brake and slip the clutch my first few runs. 3 runs.. with almost an hour and a half of waiting between each run in the staging lanes.. it sucked.

I didnt post my reaction time =) I defin stayed away from the water box.... but I did clean the tires in the dry

Tonight was my first night ever going out to any sort of drag strip.. I had a chance to do 3 runs.. it was at Bandimere Speedway which is around 5,000 ft up in altitude.. Here are my specs : stock un-touched F54 block P90 head Schnieder cam .488 lift 260 duration 2mm headgasket Holset HY35W turbocharger MegaSquirt n Spark extra Isuzu Diesal NPR intercooler 2.5" intercooler piping 4" downpipe 3" straight through exhuast Tokico Illumina 5 way adjustable struts Arizona Z car springs 205f/225r 205/60 front 225/60 rears - Yokohoma YK520 tires (26psi in the rear) ACT Stage II clutch and pressure plate Fidanza aluminum flywheel Z32 transmission Im assuming my shitty tires are to blame 5%.. but overall I SUCK at driving. Boost was 15psi (at 5,000 ft which is roughly 12psi at sea level) I was expecting 13's maybe 12's.. but damn!! 60' - 2.468 330 - 6.386 1/8 - 9.472 MPH - 80.86 1000 - 12.037 E.T. - 14.204 MPH - 108.31 With such a high trap speed I was hoping to get more out... I dunno someone bench race me!! I would think the car would be much quicker! I tried launching at 3,000 RPM and being nice to the clutch.. but I spin through 1st and also in 2nd. ugh. Shifting was done at 6,200 RPM Thanks Bobby for filming me!

hmm bit of a low pressure day and hot temps!!

Problem solved!! I ordered 2 new NISSAN bushings.. and a Shifter collar/support rod !! Now the shifter doesn't have any play at all!! The support rod is the same diameter as the bolt now so voila!! The 2nd pic shows the bushings and rod installed!! Notice the white bushing above the shifter? The white one is the Fidanza unit... notice how large the hole is?!? no wonder the bolt was moving around!!
