  1. Absolutely right. Fuel pressure for a stock EFI system in a 280Z should be 36psi at idle. Thank you for the correction.
  2. Yes indeed. EFI fuel pressure should be around 55psi and the appropriate gauge reads o to 100 psi. Thanks for the heads up.
  3. Great suggestion Tony! I will look into that and report.
  4. I'm planning on installing an inline fuel pressure gauge in the engine compartment of my stock EFI 1978 280Z. I would appreciate suggestions as to where to locate it (outgoing line from the fuel filter, in the fuel rails prior to the regulator, etc.). Where have other members placed their fuel pressure gauges? Any help (especially pics) would be appreciated as always.
  5. Don't want to be a party pooper but I prefer the 280 because it's the final evolution of the S30 with all the bugs worked out, all the creature comforts and still the amazing lines. I even like the big bumpers!
  6. This isn't the best pic but you can see I rotated the unit so the electric motor is off to the left (I placed an under dash speaker to the right). You can see the control box placed against the firewall. Space is very limited under there.
  7. Those JDM tail lights look amazing on your car. Nice job.
  8. I installed the ZPower Steering unit in my '78 280Z. It took me about 4 hours to put in mainly because of the size of the electric motor that goes under the dash. The 280Z is a bit more crowded down there than 240s and 260s so maybe it'll be easier in those cars. The unit is also very heavy (i guesstimate around 20 lbs or so) and I had to fabricate a a steel tubular brace to help support the weight, somewhat like a hammock attached to two points of the metal structure under the dash. That being said, the result is effortless steering with the advantage of being able to adjust via the rheostat type knob exactly how much assist you want.
  9. They are called Boom Mat Speaker Baffles. Got them on Ebay. Here's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/330913575201?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
  10. I'm not sure about the part number but here's the link for the part on EBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/GM-1157-Halogen-LED-Turn-Signal-Brake-Light-Bulb-Socket-Connector-Harness-Plug-/280888088661?hash=item41663c1855
