  1. I got some koni dampers, but only two of the matching glad nuts. If anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated!
  2. Dude I got the shocks from had two.... So my search continues... Thanks for the help!!!
  3. Im putting koni's in my car, oranges, and the stock gland nut that worked for the factory shocks isnt getting but a half a thred engagement with the koni's. I got the konis used, did they come with a different gland nut? Theres no spacers involved ether. Any insight would be appreciated.
  4. Pictures? I'd like to see those on a Z, I'm not used to something that modern looking on them but I could see it looking nice!
  5. thanks! still on the fence. from one angle they look good, but from some they look blah! still pondering haha.
  6. To clarify then, a stock r200 short nose LSD does NOT work in a 280z case? just aftermarket ones? Sorry, your last comment just gave me doubts that I could make the diff in the link attached work in my 280z case. http://atlanta.craigslist.org/eat/pts/4923095044.html
  7. You know, that's exactly what I asked wiring specialties, and they claimed that there was no change in the ecu, that my spec1 ecu would work... All documentation I've seen on this subject says otherwise... but I feel compelled to trust the professionals who do it every day. He claimed that its to the point that their current model of RB harness works for both specs, without modification. a universal harness for spec1 and spec2. Hell, he even said I could run knock sensors with my Spec1 ecu, which to me seems weird that they would have them included in the tune seeing as though the spec2 was the one with knock sensors.
  8. Here's the deal folks. I have a spec1 rb25, but bought a spec2 harness thinking that's what I had. After contacting wiring specialties I was presented several options and so I'm here to try and see what people have sitting in their garages. I have a brand spanking new Wiring Specialties coil harness that is not usable in spec1 configuration of the coils, therefore, I can sell that and buy an adapter to the ignitor to use the coils I've got already. So first, I'd like to offer that for sale. Or If you have a set of spec2 coils, I can install those and use the harness I already have (preferable) but they are expensive. So, someone who'd like to trade, or, part trade for my spec1 coils would be super! Let me know what you've got folks! PM's for faster response.
  9. Hi folks, I'm looking for this style wastegate bracket (pictured) that allows the compressor on a t3/t4 to blow up, my bracket only allows a compressor orientation that blows towards the block or the frame rail. I cant seem to find them sold separately unless its some ugly universal adjustable one.
  10. So, I got a z31 diff flange which apparently is the same bolt pattern as the s13 diff input flange, all i need to do is get the drive shaft shortened. So thats taken care of, and the stock RB intake looks like its going to sell on ebay now. I have my throttle linkage sorted out and I found a Cable for the rest of the way. I still need a rear brake option, and a front fascia, or air damn. I have the Q45 throttle boddy available still, and the stock complete l28 wiring harness, the wheels that are on it (pictured), and the s13 rb25 spec2 swap harness if anyone is interested or has trades. Let me know! Oh, and I'll be replacing all the instrumentation so all the gauges are available too.
  11. Is there a cross reference to a usdm car with the came compressor anyone knows about? I want to just go buy a known good one from the parts store rather than take my chances with a used one. Any tricks for running a/c youd want to share. Im building a 78 280 that had air from the factory.
  12. Looking for a a/c bracket anf compressor so i can build my intake around it. Working is preferable, but not wirking is ok, for mock up purposes atleast. On that subject, is there a cross reference to a usdm car with the came compressor anyone knows about? Any tricks for running a/c youd want to share. Im building a 78 factory air car.
  13. Thanks fellas, We def on the same page. I'm basically just listing things I'm interested in for trades in the case someone doesn't wanna pay cash for my parts. I have some ideas for all these needs, have found everything I need, but already have spent my month allowed $$. As far as the drive shaft, that was my plan, but the car was a roller and didnt have a factory driveshaft. I like the way you guys think though
  14. Hey folks, doing an rb25 swap and on a budget. Need to get rid of some things and need to get some things. Let me know what you have for sale, or trade for the stuff I've got. I have, -rb25det swap drive shaft for an s13 -rb25det swap harness for an s13 made by STL -Stock RB25det intake manifold -Stock RB25det throttle body -FMIC for an s13 (27" long core, 3" thick and 3" DIA inlet/outlet) -Stock 280z engine harness, in good shape -14" american racing wheels 4x114 obviously I Need, swap drive shaft for rb25 into 280z 15" or larger wheel options for cheap or trade (panasports, watanabe replicas, etc) I'm not using flairs, so nothing to wide please. I need a carpet kit, used is fine if its in good condition. rear disc break conversion setup FMIC that fits the front of the car well front fascia or airdamn throttle cable setup coilover kit, or lowering springs Let me know what you've got people, don't be shy. worst that can happen is I say I'm not interested I'll have more pictures soon.

    <p>The day i got the car and the engine home. been wanting this car and engine combo for a long time <img class="bbc_emoticon" src="http://forums.hybridz.org/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png" title=":)" /></p>
  18. Anybody got pictures of a z with the XXR 532 wheels on it? I've found one.... Its not getting my blood flowing but i think thats because its a 2+2 which isnt really my thing, and the color combo is kinda weird. Not to rip on dudes car, but I'd like to see if there are other examples of this wheel combo.
  19. I'm currently swapping an rb25 into my 78 280. I'm not embarrassed to say, your knowledge of circuitry design is far better than mine, and this whole thing made my head spin a little. That being said, I really am hell bent on getting the factory instrumentation to work as best i can with the swap, to keep the interior looking factory. Would you be willing to manufacture a relay such as this for me to purchase?
  20. I'm doing an rb25 swap and the mounts i purchased require a stock rb25 trans mount... I got my motor and trans out of a swapped s13 and the stock trans mount is long gone! anyone have one they would be willing to sell or donate to the cause? Thanks!
  21. need one.... Thanks for the insight though!
  22. Does anyone knownif the stock rb25 trans mount cross refferences to a usdm car of any kind? Z32 or anything like that?
  23. Well, lesson learned, they were totally wrong
