  1. No Tony, Your line needs to be at least 45" long... 50" to be safe (measured it with some spare fuel lines i had sitting around) Trust me I tried so hard to find one of those kits that were not FREAKING 36" long........ why the hell wouldn't they have different lengths?
  2. Wait so the thread of the inlet plate on the turbo is 3an or 4an?
  3. I sure hope so, awaiting on a turbo oil feed line and also in the process of rebuilding brake calipers... After that she is on the road!
  4. Alright thanks for the reply konradlip, I see these on on the passenger side of my engine: ' Is it the one to the right of the filter? If so, I'm sure thats the wrong thing there, looks like the previous owner just put it there to plug up the hole (because it has teflon tape sealing it)
  5. I have a 280z with an L28et swap as well, but mine was missing the turbo oil feed line so I have absolutely no idea where it is supposed to go (So i cant just order a kit online because I don't know how long the tube needs to be).... Could you possibly take a pic or explain where it is supposed to connect to block from the turbo??!! Thanks in advance!
  6. A little update: This is a video of it running! All the wiring turned out beautifully and was all almost not visible in the engine bay. And also I don't want to be given crap about the vacuum hose... its all I had and i was very anxious to hear this baby run!!
  7. Ahh ok, Thank you! Also do you know where I can find the inhibitor switch and what its purpose is?
  8. I am running into issues with my Throttle sensor. The two wires I have coming off of it (stock) are Blue/red and Blue/yellow. Which one goes to slot 25 and which one to 18?
  9. Thanks a lot cgsheen for the help, and yeah I was wondering what the shielded cable was for (when I bought the car the wiring was so messed up and nothing was connected to the CAS). I will update this thread with the finished wiring job and I verify that she runs! Hit me up if you're ever in Tucson!
  10. Also I replaced the first diagram I drew with the updated one.
  11. Wonderful, I completely understand the CAS now and cant wait to get that thing wired up. Also you're giving me all the wire colors lol, but I tore out every wire in that car so I could clean everything up. So color codes are no longer useful to me But they will be for other people using this post so its ok. Ok, so a couple of question then. 1) Theoretically I could just replace the relay with two manual switches that I have to switch on before I start the car, Correct? 2) Does this diagram look better? 3) I dont quite understand what you were saying about the HEI in the last couple of sentences in your post. Could you explain that?
  12. Alright sir, with your amazing help I've been able to construct this diagram, which i think is correct: There are two pins on the ecu that the white and green go to, just don't know which goes to which. Any ideas?? If not its fine, trial and error will get that job done! Ordering a new relay right now (just for the EFI as i will hook up fuel pump to a switch manual switch) and I also ordered that GM hei 4 pin power transistor. Thank you so much for taking the time to get those links NewZed. I am thinking about making a build log now.... We shall see.
  13. First of all, thank you very much for the quick response, it was very helpful, still need to figure out a couple of small details though So I looked at the post you sent me and understand it now, but still dont know where the wiring from the CAS goes, 2 of the wires are just 12v and ground, but the other two which send signals go where? (The diagram below shows the Green and Red wires going to the transistor, is that correct?? But then in the first wiring diagram i posted it shows two of the wires going to the ECU??????????!!!!!!!) And about the EFI relay; this is what it looks like: I can't, for the life of me, figure out which wire goes where.... My knowledge about relays is limited, the only reason I decided to do this total rewire is because I am a kick ass solderer lol. And does this look correct for the GM HEI module transistor??!!
  14. Hey guys, as you can see I am new to this forum, also new to the Z club. I bought a 75 280z with an engine swap from an 81 280zx turbo in it. The person before me wasn't electrically inclined and left the harness in bits and pieces with splices and dices everywhere... so I found this to be an opportunity to clean up the wiring in this car. The previous owner deleted the E.G.R and I.S.C along with the air regulator, So I cut the wires from the computer connector and started from scratch. I am almost finished as i have wired the injectors and dropping resistor, the knocking sensor, exhaust sensor, air flow meter, air temp sensor, cylinder head temp sensor, and all of the grounds. I have a couple of questions about the Ignition Coil and Distributor as well as the inhibitor switch and EFI relay: (and trust me, i spend day researching this trying to figure it out.....) Here is the diagram Ive been using: 1) Does anyone have a diagram of how the Crank Angle Sensor needs to be wired, I am pretty sure that mine is aftermarket and I don't know which of the 4 wires go where (nor could I guess because I have not found a single diagram that shows 4 wires going to the Distributer except for the one above)... Also the wires that the old one was hooked up to were 3 colored wires that went into what looks like a resistor, then then come out braided and then at the end of the braid there magically is 4 wires that hooked up to the Distributer, and the new Distributer has 4 wires coming out of it with White, Green, Red, Black written on each of them....... I'll attach pics: 2) How should i wire the Ignition coil, I've read that you can delete Ballast Resistor?! Here is the old setup: I am so confused about the Ignition coil and Distributer part of the wiring.. 3) Where is the inhibitor switch, and is it necessary to hook up? 4) Can anyone give me a diagram of which pins go where on the EFI relay according to the wiring diagram above? I couldn't find anything online!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
