    280z grill

    Have a 280z and am looking for the front upper and lower grill. Thank you
  12. i am doing mine out of aluminum. it only has a 5/8 lip, will try and get pics.
  13. First got the cheapo steel huggers, would have gone stainless but failed to find them at the time. I coated them and heat treated them, and put exhaust wrap on. This seem to keep the heat out rather well. I do however have the bigger upper hood vents on my 280 and also plan on doing side vents out the fenders. Touch your headers after the engine is warmed up....i can
  14. The reverse problem is because there is a breakthrew plate in order to get into reverse. This is electronically controlled. You can make it work with a button shift knob, or even by messing with the springs. Some even wired it to their BRAKE, so when you brake your can reverse!!!! I did none of that because it doesnt bug me. I dont know about the rest of your problems though.
  15. Soon the Z will be the DD!!!! I thought about getting a fan or something and attaching it to the cage. Mmmmm striped interior comforts!!!!!!!!!
  16. Yea if you look at the pics, i have to take off the filter for it even to run right. It took me 1 min to figure out, that the filter is completely junk. Still am tuning/breaking-in now.
  17. Well As promised, i will start posting the fruits of my labor. Quick summery... The car still needs some wiring like signals, running lights and such. It has 3k hid's, that tempature color is yellow which really looks awesome on this car for some reason. Still need to upgrade my fuel system for a return style regulator!! Other then that its great! Dart heads with angled spark plugs Demon 680 or something? compression 10 to 1 Medium cam all forged aluminum internals Thats pretty much all i know for the engine. Got the radiator off a 90's corvette Upgraded most rubber to poly shaved the blink blinks and ET Trans is a T56 6 point cage bride low max seats Exhaust is duel 2 1/4 to duel turbo mufflers. H pipe is right after the output shaft. Dry ice worked AWESOME for getting rid of the sound deadening material!! Also would be interesting to see people guess the weight and see who is the closest. Please suggest and comment!@ Thanks guys
  18. I had to get steel block huggers to fit with my angled spark plugs. Ended up coating them and also putting exhaust wrap on them. so far soo good!!! Heat isnt that bad, but am mostly concerned about them being to close to my brake lines. I will prob just reroute them.
  19. Awesome!!!! The only thing you need now is to take the chevy badge off, and put 2-step on. Your car would sound crazy if it hit 2step because of how you engine sounds.
  20. How do you test the stock sending unit? Also how to you wire it? I have everything ready to go even with the resistor, but i dont know how you wire the sending unit. please help
  21. LOL Am sorry that was a typo. Guess my fingers like putting the n at the end. ---------------78----------------------------280z
  22. Am looking for some kind of front air damn to get me by, can be fiberglass or plastic. Also am looking for hardware for the rear window louver, it is the two bottom latches. Thanks
  23. So how do you hook up the switch method. Also where are these springs located? Thanks
