It will. My cartech setup is almost done.

Thank you

You mean one of these

Haha thanks

Ok here's the pics, and before you start posting, I know that I'm chunky but the ladies love it LOL This was right after I was done experimenting to see how it looked. Me and my bro prepping the fender and door Now prepping the pass. side. The flash lit up all the paint dust in the air LOL My little sis getting in on the action Me wet sanding the hood The finished product of the all nighter

As of right now which is 4:52 A.M., the car is completely painted. So now I have pulled off an all nighter with my bro to get this car painted. No once the sun comes up I'm going to push the car outside and start wet sanding. Earlier today, me and my 13 year old bro went outside and started sanding the driver side. My bro is also into cars and he wants a 510 soon so that he can be like me. Also one thing that got me in a happy mood was when I was in the garage sanding the car, my 12 year old sister walks in and starts begging to help me. So I said yes and I gave her a little job while I take a break. About 20 mins. later I come back and she has the whole pass. side sanded and smoother than a babies bottom. So I think I have achieved getting my sister into cars. . I'm so proud of my siblings. Will have some pics up soon.

Update: Well today I didn't have drivers ed and I was home bored so I decided to work on the Z. I found some 180 grit sandpaper and went to work. I did it piece by piece so far. Then I had a quart of gloss black rustoleum that I used to cover up the exposed metal. So far I have half of the hood done and half of the roof (the car is in a one car garage so I'm not working with much space). So the plans for tomorrow is to pull it outside and finish the hood and roof, then move on to the rear quarters. I will post pics up tomorrow of my progress. Oh and BTW always wear a respirator because it sucks if you don't. I just learned the hard way.

Hey Aux do you still have your rotary setup??

Jakeoster: Thanks man PR280z: LOL Thanks. This quote is going in my sig for inspiration. "Those thoughts that were going through your mind as you sat there in your Z breaking through the BOOOST ZONE will become a reality."

Wow I'm a member on that site. Wow that is bad he's driving as if he was on the street.

Thanks J. wow we have something in common LOL

Thanks Two80z and UofA, and to answer your question Two80z4me, there's nothing wrong with it (motor wise) now body wise there's a couple things, the poor thing is ready for paint, the only cancerous rust is a hole that is the size of an infants wrist, the PO did a horrible job at shaving the side lights, and the fenders need to be rolled a bit. I need to buy a gas tank and throttle linkage to get the car running without my homemade gatorade bottle gas tank (ghetto rigged). Then the scariest thing that I am afraid to tackle, the wiring harness that comes through the firewall on the passenger side had a short somewhere and burnt most of the wires so I have to either replace the whole thing or repair the one that's there. So the list isn't that big LOL

It is a '75 280z. The 240z wiring diagram won't help me because the 240z doesn't have the harness that I have that caught on fire. The diagrams on google don't help because it doesn't break the harness down wire by wire.

Hi you guys I figured I would come here for some help. Today I went out to work on the Z and I noticed that the passenger side wiring harness had caught on fire sometime in the past. Well now I have no idea of what goes where in the harness. I am looking for some type of wiring diagram or even better, someone in the Central Florida area that can come and help me work out the wiring. Here's some pics if they help any.

Whats up everyone my names Shane and this has been my project for about a year now. First off let me tell you that I am 16 and I have had this car since I was 15. I bought this car for $1800 of my own money. There's no rich mommy and daddy thing going on here. So now for the car she's a Datsun 280z made in January of '75. Right now it has a 2.4 straight 6 backed by a 280zxt 5 speed with triple Mikuni's and a blowthru turbo setup. The Mikuni's are 40mm and the turbo is a T04B. Once I get this setup going I'm planning on rocking it like this until I get bored then I am putting a 2jz-gte in it. As she sits now she is sitting on 240z suspension with unknown lowering springs. I think the drop is a 2.5" drop because it sits pretty low. Well here are the pics and before you start commenting I know it needs paint LOL. When I first got her All the junk in her trunk After the junk in her trunk was cleaned out and I rustoleum'd the trunk area and put the stock carpet back in 240z seats installed After the 240z suspension and lowering springs Now for the motor: Intercooler setup: And to finish it all off Me pretending to drive it. I can't wait til it's finished.

Double post on accident

Yea I did. I just dropped it off at an electrical shop to see what they can do with it. Now I can focus on the Z this week.

I've checked all of that. I replaced all the bulbs and any switches for the lights. I've made an extra 10 grounds so far but I'm going to make some more. Next weekend I'm putting the tank in my Z so I'm gonna work on the 'burban sometime soon. It really aggrevated me.

Yea I didn't go I had to work on my 72 Suburban. The brake lights weren't working so I had to go through the whole truck to find a bad ground. This truck could be a short bus if you painted it yellow, that's how big it is. So it sucked and I'm still not done. If you need anything let me know. I might be buying a 76 280z parts var and then parting it out.

I love the stance of you car, but don't you think if the car squats it will rip off the flares?

Welcome. Jeff is a great guy he helped me with a couple decisions also. I currently have a 75 280z that I'm in the process of finishing up. I'm 16 nice to see another florida person especially someone around my age. Here is my Z. This is my fav pic for some odd reason.

Here is my triple mikuni turbo stup. The Mikuni's are 40mm and the turbo is a T04b

Sorry for the repost please delete

Well it didn't sell on ebay but this time he didn't BS everybody about this car. He didn't try to lie about how fast it is or anything he's pretty much straight up with the buyer.
