  1. Yeah im painting it white until next summer. Right now im just taking my time and doing all the body work and removing the 5 or 6 previous paint jobs. The tires are 215 50s. 205s wouldnt of looked as good imo because they wouldn't have filled the wheel well. I might go to 205s once i mess with the front coils some more and lower it but im happy with the way it sits and rides right now.

  2. The alternator tested good a few days ago, then i checked and the alt fuse was blown. Replaced the fuse and had the alternator tested again, do to it putting out 12v at the s connection on the alternator itself. Turned out to be bad after all. So I replaced it and its charging great now! Driving it to work for the first time tomorrow! :lol:

  3. It was jumping from 9v up to 20v. I pulled it off today and the alternator turned out to be bad. It was only a week old from autozone. I tested the s and l connections because they got hot and started smoking. With the T shaped plug unhooked I tried to jumper a 12v+ to both the s and l spots. It started smoking, I hooked the multimeter to the s hookup on the alternator spade and it was actually putting off 12v. Im guessing something in the alternator fried because it shouldn't have been putting off any power.

  4. Recently bought a 73 240z, pretty stock setup but on a L28. I bought it knowing it had charging problems, but didn't think anything of it. Well it came with 4 alternators, all bad. So i decided to do the 280zx 60 amp upgrade. Finished it and when i hook up my multimeter to the battery it's jumping around pretty bad. I also have tried taking the negative off the battery and the car will die. I had the alternator checked and it came out good. Im lost on what to do. I think i'll just start chasing wires tomorrow to see what I find, but I was wanting to know if anyone else has had this problem and would know where to start. Thanks, Casey :)

  5. Yeah i checked it out too, but he told me $1200 and it that it hasn't ran since 08 then i came across mine for $1500 running. My brother in law is going to talk to the owner of it tomorrow or wednesday to see if he'll come off the price any. I second the idea that you should check out branson z fest. This will be our 3rd year going. We go up with 240sx every year because ive had so many and my wife has one and all our friends have them, but the 240z is going this year!
