[Turbo LS1 240z Build]

is that the lowprofile elbow im assuming? I cant quite read the numbers on the side. I have a car with a scoop on it that I want to put a stock hood on, so trying to clear a stock hood with an elbow.

that truely is a beautiful car. I've had it as my background for quite some time now lol

[Hello, new guy here]

Bolt pattern is an easy one, 4x114.3 lol. Good luck with your "only" rust, keep searching, I promise you have surprises in store for you. Glad to see a new car on here. Oh, whats under the hood? Or is that just a ridiculous hood scoop for no reason? Looks like the hood is cut out for that and it says ram air on the side, I'm guessing this things got a V8.

 

Well guys, decided on wheels already

Going to get 15x8 RB-R's, the correct offset should be +4 from what i've found, is this correct?

 

right now its a 11:1 compression 406 small block, but that belongs to the previous owner. I have a 408 CI LSx going in that is built for boost

 

I'm not really a fan of the hood scoop, so, i've been already shopping for fender flares, and a new hood

 

Motor still in it:

edit: problem I was having finding the 280 4 bolt pattern, was everything I looked for kept showing me the 5 lug 300 patterns, nothing I had went back that far lol

 

Also, I know thats the "only" rust. It was a nevada car for its whole life up until about a year ago, when my body guy bought it, and replaced floor panels, etc. The only rust is on the wheel wells lol

hello and welcome, all of your questions can be answered by searching. here's a freebie for the diff question: http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=116207

ah, alright, thank you. And they are 4x114.3 bolt pattern?

[Hello, new guy here]

well everybody, picked up a 75 280z of my own finally after a year or so of lurking.

 

 

 

couple questions.

1) what is the bolt pattern, and whats the widest sized wheel I can fit on the rear?

 

2) For some reason, the windows dont fit flush with the window trim in the back as in there is a gap. I assume this is something I can fix by taking the panel off and adjusting things?

 

3) What are the factory rear gears in these cars?

 

there are a few small flaws with the car

1) no radio

2) the side windows dont seal

3) very small rust above both rear wheel wells, nothing big though

 

I have to go pick it up still, its a local deal, the guy currently has a SBC in it, and it will be getting swapped for an LSX
