1. Okay fixed the brake switch issue. No i have tails =) Next up... 2. Next im gettin ready to change my rotors & i noticed they seemed recessed on the hub, is a special tool required to remove the rotors? 3. how much is a complete l28 drivetrain worth? 4. Whats the market value of average/less than average s130 seats?

1. So I did some electrical diagnosis, pulled the brake light switch and checked for 12v & got nothing!! I went to check fuses and couldnt find the lid that tells you which fuse is what? 2. Next im gettin ready to change my rotors & i noticed they seemed recessed on the hub, is a special tool required to remove the rotors? 3. how much is a complete l28 drivetrain worth? 4. Whats the market value of average/less than average s130 seats?

No the rear brake lights never come on. The 4ways/turn signals work but the brakes dont. I'm not sure about the reverse lights either? He said he unplugged the switch but im not exactly sure why? I'll swap out the switch and then check the tail light wires to nake sure everything is hooked up

@ blu no I actually need to get a few decent pics. Hey i'm still having brake issues that maybe u could help me with. When i press the brake pedal the brake lights do not come on, even after i changed the bulbs. i looked under the dash saw wat looked like (2) brake light switches mounted against the brake pedal. One has a little white tab on the end that seemingly gets pushed in when you hit the brakes. The other has no tab? How can you check and see if a brake switch is any good. A spare switch came w/the car, and was in a box?

i checked it out i didnt see anything besides the normal swap stuff? Am i goin to the wrong page?

it does look good. what about the rears though? I'm actually in the process of trying to figure out what i wanna do for brakes on my s130 so ill stay in touch

@ blu it looks good, i'm not worried about wiring too much i just didnt wanna buy a radio that didnt fit. i'll look into those springs tho!!

okay next question, when everyone upgrades their audio what head unit do you go to? Whats the stock size? stiffer springs were mentioned earlier, any brand/part # in particualar?

@ Blu sorry i didnt realise i had bumped an old thread. I'm interested in the z31 seats but im kinda looking for something that i can mildly mod & not have to weld since i dont have one yet.

@ linchpin360 could you go in to more details about your seat install?

interesting write up

Not sure if its been mentioned before but the new hyundai genisis has 6 piston calipers and i believe 13" rotors

@ gollum cool I guess ill fix it today!!! man im excited to be workin on a Z!!! @ blu if u want them they are yours bro

forgot to re-ask doesn anyone know where the brake light switch is physically located? The previous owner disconnected it

damn was hoping they were worth more. Thanx for all the s130 help, im sure ill have a ton more questions!!

83 datsun wheels 4 sale

Are these wheels worth anything to anyone, i wanna get ride of em!!

It doesnt appear that rusty but then again when i towed it, the tow hook got ripped right out of the frame!! I have a multimeter so ill check when i get back to my shop!

finally got the car home okay an realized I'm having more zx problems: 1.rear brake light switch was unplugged. any idea where this part is located? 2. I pulled a caliper to find out why i had no brakes, when i tried to use a c-clamp to compress the piston it wudnt moves, also i saw wetness/brake fluid on the pass front caliper. I put fluid in the resiovior, the pads & rotors looked okay tho. 3. I think the alt is bad, i jumped the batt, but 10 mins later the car turns off & wont start/crank. 4. the car is one of the rattliest things ive ever driven, road noise is as bad as if the rear hatch was open!! It also has some frame rust. any sources on where to buy floor pans and frame rails?

jus saved his refs to a flash drive & damn thats a useful site!!!!

awww darn i was hoping id found a definite posi donor.

Also does anyone know the answer to question #2 & 3#? 2. I found an 86 turbo 300zx in the junk yard, since its a turbo model is it automatically have the LSD. Are any of the parts interchangeable between the 300zx & 280zx? 3. Can the 4runner calipers bolt up tho the 280zx? Next which repair manual does everyone use?

wow they are pricey!!! Anyone kno what size they are or are they the stock size?

thanks alot, ill check it out

well i mean i can order/special order them from autozone but i wanted to know if anyone knew a vendor that stocked them on the shelves. Thanks for the reply though my friend
