Appears to be a pay to play adjustment to current smog law. After two attempts to smog the vehicle and an attempt to repair the issue, you can pay a $200 smog abatement fee and register your car. The bill is still pending, but might have a chance since there is an opportunity for increased revenue Just seeing if anyone has any more info on it ?

I wish I had some witty comment, but I'm speechless..... http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/4174383268.html 1971 datsun 240z dune buggie $1,500 obo - $1500 (Vacaville)

On all my Z's I pieced together the swap. Usually the hardest things to find are the rear mustache bar, diff cover, and rear A-arm brace. The 240z half shafts bolt up. And I leave the stub axles in the diff when I buy it at the junk yard. ZX's are common in the junk yards around here, but 280z's are getting scarce.

I had a daily driver 01 S2000, great car, and like most things with a Honda badge, reliability was never an issue. And I was able to do my own maintenance . I only did 2 track days at sears point and thunderhill but the car was awesome. For a daily driver it’s a hard car to beat, my only complaint was a lack of torque. Sure I could drive around at 7500-9k all day to make up for it, but for everyday type situations it sometimes felt pretty gut-less. (I had an intake and exhaust on it, but save your money for forced induction, most mods have a minimal impact) Check out http://www.s2ki.com/s2000/ if you haven't already, good info and a good place to find one to buy.

http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/pml/cto/2619410616.html Copied from Craigslist Skyline! 1990 GTSt - $5000 (Maple Ridge) This isn't your normal skyline. This motherfcker is the skyline God would drive if he wasn't busy doing God sh*t like making tsunamis and crap. Its set up to go fast, and go fast sideways. Who doesn't like to get sideway?! Terrorists, thats who. Are you a terrorist? No? Then you need this car. Handling? This car handles like a junior executive CEO. Go around corners like the devil himself is chasing you, and not give a ***. Whats that? You like drifting? Well I've got some great god d@mn news for you. This car was a drift project of mine, and the last owner was planning on making it a drift machine too. Interior is for ******* so we got rid of it. Manly as ***. It literally oozes testosterone. So much so that its puddling up in the back. Seats? this ******cker has got two. One for you, and one for the hot @ss broad thats gunna be all upons your **** after you buy this car. You're a girl? Sh*t works both ways. One seat for you, and one seat for that hot @ss dude you've been trying to hook up with for weeks. Deal with it,sh*ts getting serious. Stereos and AC are for hippies. Fortunately this car has neither. Oh look at me, I like listen to Simon and Garfunkel and think about puppies. F*ck that. The only noises you're gunna be hearing is the ultra manly engine noises coming from this sweet turbocharged, intercooled, 24 valve inline 6. Sh*ts getting real, real f*cking fast. This car has got a bright orange ebrake handle (b*tches love orange) with a drift button for those super ultra megahellatastic bar room brawler ebrake lockers. F*ck. Yes. Now, I'll be honest. The wheels are a little lackluster, although everyones gunna be so focused on your super gangster drifting that nobody is going to give a f*ck about your sh*tty stock 16s. Don't worry, I've got you ****** covered. Its like we're in Vietnam and you just got ambushed by Charlie. Don't worry, friend, I've got your ****** back and I blow charlie to kingdom ****** come. For an extra $450 I can throw in some added p*ssy magnets for wheels, just don't come crawling back to me complaining that you're getting TOO much vajayjay. Bright ****** green 18s. Greens not your thing? Super legit silver 18s. Done like dinner. This car has got 1.5 metric f*ck tons of awesome parts. Bride, Greddy, Brembo, the list doesn't f*cking END. It just keeps going and going, like the energizer bunny on speed. You like going fast? Ever tried to outrun 24 police cars and 3 helicopters? You need this car. It will go so ****** fast that you may very well go back in time. It happened to me once. Just once, but it was ****** rad. Its like someone took a rocket and opened its mouth and poured steroids down its throat and and threatened to kill its family if it wasn't the fastest motherfcker you've ever driven. I get it. You're busy, I'm busy, lets not waste time. If you're interested send me a message and I'll get back to you ASAP. You send me a message, I send you one right back. Thats how this works.

I'm running a Champion 3 row and have had great results, it was well made and a good value. I did mount it using rubber isolaters, just for extra protection.

Got one, please delete

Looking for a stock water temp/oil pressure gauge in good working condition for my 71 240z. Paypal ready, please pm or post a total price shipped to 95621 Thanks

5-6 inital seems a little low to me. Use a dial back timing light to figure out your total ignition advance. 34-38 degrees total is a good ball park. But really, detonation determines how far you can go. I searched "total ignition advance" and found some great topics. Here is some great info from BRAAP

My z is EXTREMELY hard to start. I have a F54 flat-top block with a P90 head with the stock turbo cam. Inital timing at 12 total timing 38. Lately it refuses to start even when using starting fluid, and retarding intial timing, which led me to start looking a little deeper than distributor timing and carb settings. I pulled off the valve cover and the "V" notch behind the cam gear is lined up properly and the piston is at TDC with the crank sprocket mark positioned as well. But my "bright" links are not lined up correctly according to the FSM. How much of an affect would this have ?, Since the cam gear and crank gear are positioned correctly and connected by the chain would the bright links not being positioned right throw off my timing that much. I plan on correcting the situation and setting everything up to spec but am wondering what the effect of the links being off was?

Besides the Block and Head here is a list of parts needed to complete the swap if you are doing it piece by piece. Wiring Harness Later style Water Neck Water Temp sensor Knock Sensor Head temp sensor Turbo ECU Air Flow Meter Throttle Position Sensor Throttle Body Intake Manifold Exhaust Manifold Turbo Injectors Fuel Rail Fuel lines and fittings for carb to efi conversion Fuel Pressure regulator Fuel Pump Ignition Harness FI Relay Turbo Distributor Ignitor Turbo Oil feed and return lines for turbo Piping for turbo to intake Turbo Flywheel Turbo/Stronger Clutch Downpipe from turbo to exhaust Good Luck *I know I might be forgetting an item, but this is a fairly complete list

You'll need both the turbo distributor and shaft, the NA stuff wont work with the stock turbo harness and ECU

I have a super clean harness, I've inspected and repaired any bad wires or connectors. And soldered in new injector clips. $75 shipped and that includes the ECU as well http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/96628-turbo-parts-and-n47-manifold/

Nice job on the linkage, I like how it serves as a heat shield as well. I think i'm going to redo mine like yours. Is there a place locally that sells those heim joints/tie rod ends you used to mount the main linkage rod (horizontal round bar)? Orchard carries 1/4" but I need a pair of 5/16"

Pics

All of mine were steel, one Ball stud had short threads but other than that the parts were top notch. My linkage uses all the stock heim/joints and rod ends, I'll take a picture tonight

There must be something in the water near Sacramento causing MCHH conversions because I'm working on one as well...... I believe the other local you refer to posted this thread? http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php?/topic/91271-side-drafts/ But the pictures disappeared before I could see the linkage. Could you post a pic of yours off the engine? I fabbed up my own linkage from some flat stock and 1/4 inch rod, its ugly but works. So far the carbs work pretty well, easier starts, good throttle response, but with all the rain we've been getting I havent been able to put many miles on them. I have about 330 in the setup. 300 for the carbs shipped, and 30 for some flat stock, heim joints, and linkage parts.
