I have to switch all my gauges to my "new" LS1 Z so I am watching this one closely. Great work.

That is your problem! I am no wiring expert so please excuse my "lame" way of trying to explain how to hook up the pink wire. I spliced the pink wire to the constant 12v source coming out of the fuse block on my 73 240z. Should be the white wire with single red stripe down the middle.....someone help me explain this correctly!

1. 2002 LS1 "Slight Mod" 2. T56 3. JCI 4. Braided SS lines, Walbro 255 pump, modded 240z tank, FPR 5. Jan 07 - Sept 07 6. AZ 4-piston brakes, Q45 diff mount, Adj control arms (Front/Rear), 6 point cage, MoMo Seats....bunch of goodies!

Joe is right. I had this problem for about three days! Be sure to make sure you are getting a constant 12v source to the PCM during crank cycle. If you have a light hooked up to your PCM (near the port to flash the pcm) it should stay on while you are turning the key. Seeing that you are using the factory harness, I am not sure what color the wire is that you need to check. Vihn will be someone who can help you since he used the factory harness twice already...others also just can't name any off the top of my head.

Any new info on doors? I would like to have this cleared up and turned into a sticky....

I didn't have enough money myself! lmao Maybe on the next one we will have a group buy.

Sold!!!!!!!!! $17,700

UPDATE: Bidding on this car is @ $9,100. From the block number it is due to come up within the hour....20k for this car?

I was really thinking....for 5k-6k if that much...I could buy this and sell my other Z's and parts and start from fresh! lol If only all dreams could come true.

Post some pics of the car if you have.

Pete can work on a MS setup for this car....hmm A HybridZ GTR/S30 track car. lol 5 lug conversion for the Z! Hmm I wonder how much one GTR wheel cost?

Yup the tranny is around 15k! Bidding starts in 2 hours...will try and find out from work what the car went for. Like Dave said, this car was hit very hard! If this auction was out west, I think it would bring very good money but it being upstate NY....we will have to see. I am thinking no more than 8k for the car. My guess is as good as any.....from what I remember, it isn't like you can just swap the drive train into anything...right?

Who said there wasn't rust free cars in NY!

Most of the cars are stripped of plates and personal belongings. Motor did seem to take some of the impact, plus view the pic of the center console...or what was the center console.

While looking at tomorrows listing for the salvage yard, I came across this! Current bids for the car is only $900, I guess there really isn't much you can do with the motor and trans. I will try and let you guys know what this car goes for tomorrow...anyone want to guess? I might place a bid for 2K...LOL NEVER KNOW

Wait did my car get stolen? lmao Post some pics Scott...let us see what you got going on.

Toggle switches....lol. A z with no heat...reminds me of another car I know!

What is your peak temp you get to when you see it rising? I have the same "looped" setup on my Z but I am running a big rad and the GM dual E fans. I still have the 180 tstat in my car. Driving around and short speed burst I am around 190 but on track (Watkins Glen or Daytona yr ago) my temp got up to 205-210 exactly where you want to be. Like David said, GM designed the LSx's to run warmer than our L6....the exact reason I did not do the 160 tstat. Also...as I will be doing this season....get rid of that Dextron coolant....it is junk!

I was going to ask $50 but that guy is offering it $25 shipped...can't beat that =)

Vin is only in FOUR places: 1. DASH 2. DOOR JAM 3. FIREWALL 4. TITLE * The data plate on the inner pasn fender will tell you the engine #. In this case, title being a 240z and you getting a 280z I would want the money back and have him come and get the car. If it was a 240z just with the wrong vin and it came back clean then I would keep it. You can always not have the door jam plate on and make a new dash plate. I know some of you are thinking I am crazy but if everyone went out and looked to make sure all 4 numbers matched...I bet maybe 3 may come back finding out this isn't the case. There are plenty of people you can trust and this guy sounds like he knew the title and vin was no good. Hope you get the money back, sure you will.

clive.bogle @ gmail.com Let me know if you need the ECU I can go get it from the other garage and out to you....wanna see your car running and fig out why you are having this problem.

Hmm I will see where my ECU is and have it out to you if you want.

You looking to add a 240 to your Z collection? What are your plans?

Fired! lol

linky no good
