Looks good, and doesnt look like a painfully obvious aftermarket part

Got a used 5 layer from TurboZ I was gonna use but Im not sure now, what were you looking to spend on a used one?

I have one too, let me see if I can find it and snap a pic of it

I dont have any pics but I did find some of these helpful when I was trying to figure out my water valve without taking my fan out. So I could grasp the idea of the valve without seeing it : http://www.maplesoft.net/datsun/repairandupgrade/heatercore/index.htm

I have some lowering springs for a 280z I bought some in a suspension set, and when I removed the suspension off my car it was all aftermarket already., Ill have to try to find the time and ill get some pics for you this weekend or next I have finals this week and next.

We are all friendly, not sure if ill make it or not but me and you are running very similar setups, and I want to be there

Ill try to send you mine, send me your email

Im in Fort Worth, and I just did a l28et into a '77 280z. I didn't use mega squirt but its probably pretty close.

I would also like a base map just to get things going. I also have an e6. Thanks. Im also in Fort Worth...

Word ive done 3 on 280zs and they've all worked with parking and int. But then again every car is different, they might have wiring issues or have some weird motor from the cars listed above. Who knows but even if $140 is more than i paid on my honda motors, its still not that bad. ,Ryan

wow super clean.

You flying that over water?

Well im sure it'll be worth it, there are obviously a lot of seat switches on here, but that one looks really good. Are you gonna do the passenger? ,Ryan

^^ what he said. Less rust the less heartache. Ive had to scrap a whole car because the rust repair was more than the car was worth. Ryan

yeah that sounds good for only $140. It might be easier for all the people who cant get this working. Im not sure why your park doesnt work though. ,Ryan

You gotta judge your area and how frequent they come up. Down here they are semi frequent, I have found a real rust free original paint 77 280z for $700. It didnt run, but with a couple hundred it did. Then I just picked up a 71' 240 with minimal rust for 1300, and it ran. My secret is just waiting and watching. If they arent frequent then it might be harder to find the best deal, as every car that comes up will have more interest and itll take forever if you keep passing on them. Good luck and imo z cars are worth alot more than they can be bought for. ,Ryan

very nice. my 4 barrel doesn't look close to that. very clean

How different do the seat rails look?

I love it! Cars 40+ years old and people still coming up with good ideas.

nice! they remind me of my VW GLI's lights.

Hmmmm... so you are using your old bushings as mini spacers between the coils? Im trying to get a visual. ,Ryan

Yeah I beleive he was or atleast thats what ive read everywhere else on this and other forums.. yumm peppermint. ,Ryan

Nice cars, i wish i lived somewhere i could cruise with my windows rolled down and not melt.

Sorry I decided not to further complicate things by adding another diagram, as Ive done this mod 3 other times just using my last post's diagram. I picked myself up a 71 and a 72 240z so I should be attempting this again soon, and Ill relay any differences between the models, other than whats covered already. ,Ryan

Hello Folks, I bring 2 pieces of good news. After looking at multiple spider legged 91 civic motor, I started doing some digging. It turns out I can verify the motor is the correct motor in a 92+ civic, which broadens the scope to: ACURA INTEGRA GS (1997 - 2001) ACURA INTEGRA GSR (1994 - 2001) ACURA INTEGRA LS (1994 - 2001) ACURA INTEGRA RS (1994 - 1998) ACURA INTEGRA SPECIAL EDITION (1995 - 1996) ACURA INTEGRA TYPE-R (1997 - 2001) HONDA CIVIC CX (1992 - 1995) HONDA CIVIC DEL SOL S (1993 - 1997) HONDA CIVIC DEL SOL SI (1993 - 1997) as well as 92-95 civic dx and ex's. Now with this list there is a word of caution: The wrong motor might still be on the listed cars, but in the right place. So take EXTRA care The spider motors were inside the engine bay and didnt resemble thr right motor making it easy to spot them right away...The wrong motor is not the spider type but resembles the right 3 legged motor very closely. They are both under the plastic trim near the firewall/windshield I pulled the wrong motor out of a 94 civic. One difference I noted before I pulled out the second motor, is that from the back/top of the motor the right motor has its wire bunch going on top of its neck while the worng one didnt. the right one also has 3 mounting holes in a triangle while the wrong one only has 2 and a 3rd post with no threads in it. Study the pictures of the right motor before you go. Having a motor built in 2001 in a 70s car....Priceless Also these motors have the right shaft so you can just drill the mounting holes and bolt it in. And next piece of good news... Here is the wiring for a 280z using stock delay module: 77' Datsun 280Z __________________ 92' Honda civic wiper motor ---------------------------_________Pin 86 -----blue/white Yellow/black--------Pin 87A ________ Pin 87-------blue ----------------------------________ pin 30--------Chassis Ground Blue/red----------------pin 85---------pin 85----------green/black Black----------------------to------------------black Blue/yellow----------------to-------------------blue/yellow Fast, slow speed, intermit. and park all work with this setup. Ill double check this when I get home just to make sure im remembering it correctly, and Ill add a diagram of what is what incase your wiring is different and you have to figure it out,as its easier to figure out a circuit difference than the difference in car make/models. You can also buy a 4 prong relay if its all you can find instead of the 5, just put 280z yellow/blk and civic motor blue on the same 87 prong. Enjoy those bolt in 2001 motors that work with all settings and stock windshield wiper stalk control hehehehe AWESOME. ,Ryan
