    Throwing this out there in case anyone might be parting out or not continuing a project. Looking for JCI mounts or headers or JTR headers. JCI driveshaft and modded radiator

    Sorry I should have stated that. It's a 1971 (see sig )

    Nice!

    Nice work man! Wanna wire my gauges when that time comes?

    Hmm I could probably swap guts with my current trans. Let me see if they'll fit into a zx 5-speed. My current trans is leaking so I have to assess if the housing is any good. It might be the input shaft seal. I'll keep you posted thanks man!

    As title says I need a functional 5-speed. Prefer local pickup. I am located in Northern NJ.

    Even harder with the super wide fenders in the way. Leaves a nice little pain in your lower back leaning over trying not to put weight on it.

    I had the pleasure of working on EvilC's car today. Thing is a beast!

    With any car if you add power and do not upgrade your suspension, tires, and basically all supporting mods you will not be able to effectively deliver the power to the ground.

    Got wheelgap? LOL jk. Can't wait to see how it looks like with the flares on. You are extremely lucky you have a friend like Joe to lend you garage space!

    Yeah research, read, research, and read. Come up with a budget and add another 5k to it especially if you aren't doing the work yourself. If you are building a car to retain it's value then you are heading in the wrong direction. Hell you are heading into the wrong hobby if you want a return on your money. Oh did I mention read and research.

    Yes still looking specifically for a 240z. Thanks though

    I like! I have to go check the car out!

    That's not what you usually want with an inline pump. You want a high micron filter between the tank and pump, especially if the pump is a pusher, so that it will not hinder flow too much and then a low micron filter after the pump to protect the injectors. The lower the micron the smaller the particle it can filter. The lower micron (first in this case) should catch everything making the second pointless if you get what I mean which doesnt make sense in this case.
  18. blueshark123
    Crazy stuff. How was it that it made it past the first filter but all got caught in the second?? What were the micron ratings on the filters?

    I would have one word for you....Boost, but let's not whore up the thread
  20. blueshark123
    Looking good man. Good luck with her!
  21. blueshark123
    Torque on its own doesnt win races. There are plenty of FAST 13B motors out there. Making torque at high rpm rather than at low rpm is what you want because you can take advantage of gearing.
  22. blueshark123
    Rags you're right. Just do some datalogging and see what's up. I got to check this car out sometime. I wanted to see it at Glens but unfortunately I couldn't take off of work.
  23. blueshark123
    That's true but most aftermarket FPRs increase fuel pressure 1:1 for every lb of boost seen. This motor is NA and shouldnt see this happening. Either way this would have been picked up on the dyno. I wonder why there even is a vac source connected to the FPR? Im not sure what brand it is either
  24. blueshark123
    Yeah but then he would have been seeing this problem on the dyno. Sounds like it might be a fuel pickup problem. This happened on a friend's car (not a 240z) when he was on a dyno all was fine but when he got on it on the street it would break up and feel slow. It turned out that the pickup was made wrong and when the car would accelerate the fuel would go to the back of the tank and starve the pickup; something that wont happen on the dyno.
  25. blueshark123
    Sucks to hear man. Was this car ever running properly before the dyno tune? If so what was changed?
