auxilary Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 it's not the functionality, but the appeal of individual handwork that's used to show the wastegate tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB26powered74zcar Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 I will be bringing you mine to start on next week James. I got a call from Burns Stainless yesterday stating that all the 321 we ordered, along with the twin double slip collectors are on the way to me. If mine comes out half as nice as Taylor's, I'll be bragging and showing off tons of pics to the world... I was going to give you my spare RB26 complete motor for a trade out on the work you'll be doing for me, but since I saw your post about going with a KA24-T, I guess I can still keep it as a spare... Be there next week or so.... so save that vacant spot for my car.... joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB26powered74zcar Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Man thats going to be one kick a$$ Z car... John, what kind of clutch set up do you have in that puppy? What driveshaft did you use, and what rear diff gear ratio do you have? Just wondering .... thanks joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Taylor Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Joel, Clutch came off my L28 setup. It's a 6 puck clutch called a Pro-Grip. I got it from TEP. Haven't got a driveshaft yet. I'll let you know what I get. If we are using the same mounts and everything mabe we could get 2 at once and save a few bucks. Rear end is a 3.70 LSD. Have you got any places in mind to get your driveshaft from yet? JT P.S. If you get a chance you oughta stop by Mobile on the way to or from James. I live about 10 mins off I-65.

RB26powered74zcar Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 John, sorry for the delay in posting here on HybridZ, as I still can't get on the site from my home computer... (long story, in another thread in Site Suport) Sure, I'll be happy to stop by. I didn't realize you can use the L-6 clutch set ups on the RB flywheels.... I have the RB25 driveshaft that I bought from Stony I was planing on using for now. Although it fits the RB in a Z with the use of Brads motor mounts, Stony thinks it won't work with the billet alum mounts we have, because our mounts shift the motor more to the rear, making the d/s to long (in my case) I will try to use it, and if it won't work, I may call up Inland Impire Driveline out in Calif. They are the ones who made me up the nice alum d/s that I sold with my stroker motor a few months back. I paid somewhere close to $300 for the alum d/s. My aunt lives in Mobile, and she just arrived here yesterday for thanksgiving. I will be stoping in Mobile to spend the night thurs or fri night, so email me you address/ph# so I can look you up... gotta get to work... later joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zline Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 How long ago did you get your mounts from brad? I was under the impression he was no longer producing them?? Did he give you the CAD program for them or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybrid240z Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Rick Wong from Infinity Machining in Canada was selling those but I am not sure if they are still available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
