How LOW is your Z... and how driveable is it
jjslade replied to jjslade's topic in S30 Series - 240z, 260z, 280z
At the moment i'd say the lowest part is about 3.5" from the floor, i'm not into that stanced look whatsoever, but do like fairly low cars. I'm currently restoring it so I have never driven it, so was just wondering where abouts people had their ride height set. -
Help diagnosing large amounts of white smoke coming out the exhaust

Here is a video of it running if it helps, idling at about 1000 rpm, and the smoke is quite a bit more white in person -

Just seeing how much i can reasonably lower mine, is 2 inches between the chassis rails and floor too low? -
Help diagnosing large amounts of white smoke coming out the exhaust
jjslade replied to jjslade's topic in Nissan L6 Forum
So i have done a compression test 1- 100 2- 95 3- 90 4- 95 5-90 6-90 So very low. As i said, it has a brand new head gasket, so could this indicate all the rings are gone? I also had to re grind all new valves in as 10 of them were bent, so perhaps I haven't done it well enough as it was my first time Any other help would be very much appreciated -

Haha may be a British term, just means very very rough. I will do a compression test and see what results that yields -
Hi there,i've got a 260z with roundtops on, and it idles like a bag of spanners, and emits a ridiculous amount of white smoke out the back. Normally you would think this would be a blown headgasket, but it is a brand new headgasket, torqued down correctly. I have even tried draining all the water from the system and starting it with absolutely no coolant in for a short period, but with the same cloud of white smoke. What else could this be? a warped head maybe, or vacuum leak? Really getting to my wits end with it now.

Hi there, I have a 260z with the following cam, 284 advertised duration....210 at .050 duration with .435 lift on 109 degree LSA, would you guys reccomend the 40 or 45 triple webbers? and also would the stock mechanical fuel pump be adequate? Thanks

with this setup current my SU’s are cranked all the way to the top, idle screws set as low as possible, and it’s still idling at 2000rpm and incredibly rich, so i’m thinking when i ordered a carb rebuild kit i bought the wrong needle? could someone please recommend me an appropriate needle for this setup? Kind regards
