  1. i took my turbo off yesterday (280zxt 1981) and three metal things came off. the Big one, is the main manifold to turbo gasket, but can you name these two? i think they might be a type of washer, im not sure where they go, or if i even have to use them again, help me out.

  2. I'm trying to see if anyone knows of any good deals this year. This year, I'll be waiting for a craftsman compressor from sears, 33gal, 150psi max, dont know any other specs, but you get a free impact wrench, and an air ratchet, all for $300. they also have tool sets for cheap. im also getting a craftsman creeper and mechanics seat for $20, new screwdriver set for $10 (over 15 drivers!!), new 1/4 or 3/8 ratchet and standard socket set for $10. this is ridiculous.

    Keep this post going. I want to go broke this Thanksgiving!

  3. I need a Turbo AFM for my 81zxt. Please test it and make sure you have it...i just spent a whole week waiting for an afm, and the guy found he didnt have a good one for me.

     

    Test flap, OHM it out, make sure its within FSM specs.

     

    Pictures if possible.

     

    will pay $65 shipped.

  4. Hey guys, I'm currently going to Cal State University of Fullerton, majoring in business. I hate it. I have no idea why I'm doing this, besides the fact that business majors get nice big paychecks. I recently thought about switching majors, and decided that I wanted to operate CNC machines, or weld. It seems like it would be fun, and I heard they make pretty good money.

     

    I wanted to see if there are any CNC operators or professional welders on this website that can show me the path. If I choose this career path, what should I major in? Should I major in Mechanical engineering or something?

  5. i have an 81 turbo setup in my 77. I am hearing this weird, "Whoop" noise coming from the front end area. Its not a fast pace noise. I am thinking that its the oil pump. has anyone ever heard of an oil pump going out, and making weird noises? I also had an N/A setup in the car previous, that made the exact same noise. The ONLY part i switched from engine to engine was the water pump, and that was brand new from MSA. also, they both had deleted fan clutches. I am hoping this isnt a bottom end issue.

     

    anyone have this "whoop" noise? btw, it occurs about once every ten seconds

  6. just bought a new CHTS. the wires itself, that go to the ECU have no resistance. Now the 81 manual, from Xenon, says to disconnect the 16-pin connector. test resistance between pin 23 and ground.

     

    im not getting any reading. i dont understand how the pin should have continuity w/ ground.

     

    any suggestions? comments? thanks
