[1975 280z New ZX Alternator Won't Charge]

Also, Check the voltage At the alternator when it is running.... If it isnt around 13-14V..you may have a bad alternator or a high resistance short between ground and battery  To check this remove the wire to battery from the alternator and start it up again.

[260z with SBC? Worth it?]

When you add up all the costs if you were to do it from scratch and purchase all the components.... You're looking at a lot of money.

If you can find a decent project with a good chunk of the parts there,  you can redo some of the work.. It will be a bit frustrating but I find a lot less expensive that buying it all from scratch.

Emailed you.

[WTB: Good Condition Hatch for S30]

I have one from a 72 240Z and, one from a 73 240Z. If those would work for you. 

 

Shipping would be the issue for me, but I am a little further South in WA if you were willing to come down near Olympia. 

 

Hey, Email me pics. I would be willing to meet you somewhere as long as they are in good condition. Do you have the glass out?

[WTB: Good Condition Hatch for S30]

Hello All,

 

I really need a hatch for my Datsun 280z. The present one had louvers in place and is not in the best shape. Trying to see if i can get one used over fixing this one...

 

Just need the hatch, no glass emblems or locks required.

 

Shipped to 98230.

 

Thank you

What springs do you have on it? Coilovers?

[Rota Grid Classic 15x8 Rims with Kumho Escta 205 50 15 for s30]

You sure those aren't Grid V?

You're probably right.

[Rota Grid Classic 15x8 Rims with Kumho Escta 205 50 15 for s30]

hey guys,

I am thinking of going a different route for wheels/tires and was thinking about selling my set of Rota Grids.

 

Rota Grid V 15x8 4x114.3 73.1 mm bore

Kumho Escta 205 50 15 with around 75% rubber left.

 

They have a nice deep dish and are in really good condition.

 

What would these go for used?

 

 

Thanks in advanced.

[Silver Mine Electric PS kit]

Thats impressive...Can do it wayyy cheaper. but its nice to see a complete kit...Im not paying 900X1.35 for exchange lol

[Premature Restoration]

Agreed, I am quite happy with my cx racing products for the money! 

V8s are fun..but I think a boosted inline 6 like a 2JZ will be a blast to install and run!...

[T3 Coil overs vs DIY Ground control kit]

Are they any GOOD though? I'm not interested in going low for looks; I just want good suspension. 

 

If that was the case then a pair of good shocks with slightly stiffer springs will give you the best suspension geometry and increasing performance..

I have a MSD ignition 282 LPH fuel pump I am no longer using(good for 450-500hp). It works super well but it is a bit noisy for my taste.

[Bushings: Which Rubber and Which Poly to maximize comfort and performance]

If the mount has failed then it would be best to replace the lower mount before adding on the RT mount if you plan on running a factory style rubber mount on the bottom.

 

The snubber setup will be fine as it basically replaces the limiter strap.

 

Keep in mind clunking can come from other sources, so inspecting your mustache bar, axles etc would be a good idea. One source of a clunk that is missed fairly often are the control arms in the rear. If the bolts become loose that retain the bushing on power on or braking the entire control arm can shift forward or rear ward.

 

Great suggestions! 

[Bushings: Which Rubber and Which Poly to maximize comfort and performance]

Very solid piece, just something you may run into, you may have to shave the little lip in the tunnel near the bolts.

Thanks for the heads up
