S130Z Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 That turbo manifold I sell you work out good for ya? I'm still running my old manifold right now(I got it resurfaced). I have to get a flat spot and a hole machined on the one I got from you so I can mount my external wastegate. I'll let you know how it goes.

Jared Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Here's my S130 with my S30 and Z34 Very nice, looks like the S130 needs some wheels so the other two don't out sport it too much. I'm picking up a Z34 after the first of the year to sit out with my S130 and Titan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrunner Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Factory Stock with an Iskendarian Stage 1 Performance Camshaft and a Motorsport Ceramic Coated Exhaust Header, Full 2-1/2 inch exhaust. (Dissatisfied with H.P.) Undecided to install a Ported Cylinder Head,Turbo, or V-8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddzx Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I got it from an estate sale and was told it was a 1980 280ZX but the title says 1981. It runs and drives but needs some work, the exhaust pipe is rusted through and dragging on the ground. The inside is the filtiest I have ever seen a Z. cig. ashes 1/2 inch deep on the console. The hatch area is crammed with garbage. I'll hose it out, clean it up and see how it looks then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macambra Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Hi,I'm new here,but not new to Zcars. I've had my share. My current and possibly my keeper, is an 83 ZXT 7-83 production (same as 84 300zx). I picked it up from my neighbor for $400. Black on tan, T-top, 5sp. So far I have changed the carpet to a new black one, new reclining black vinyl racing buckets, T/C kit, KYBs (which suck), suspension technique springs (Eibach has dico'd thiers), Greddy type S adjustable BOV, Cheap ebay manual boost control. Ipulled the F54 block and installed an N42 set to experiment on. I am rebuilding the F54. I used the N42 head and modified a thermister (2K ohm) to replace the cyl head temp sensor. I plan on buying a solid fuel rail from Palnet and 380cc injectors from Osidetiger. I also plan on switching the ecu to a Z31 soon(I have the parts just haven't done it yet.) I purchased an ECCS diagnostic unit and the service manuals on cd. I am currently a DOD civilian electrician,but prior I worked for the local Nissan Dealer. I have been working on Nissans for almost 20 years. As soon as I have a chance to wash the car I'll post some pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borini63 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I just love it....every body here find a Z and bring it back to life. KEEP THEM RUNNING. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZXR_KiD Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 considering both of mine came out of junkyards, I think I'm doing my part on that. Macambra,sounds like youve got yourself a good plan of attack, can't wait to see the pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvemfast Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Long time lurker of this thread. Been waiting till paint was finished before posting pics of my Z. Saved from a barn after being hidden for over 7 years. 2 seaters a rare in Australia, apparently only 2 were delivered for Nissan executives. The rest are personal imports, would only be double figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvemfast Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Thanks guys. I am defiantly interested in hearing on how you shaved the rear and made it look so clean! Here are some progress pic's, if that helps. All Steel underneath, tack it all on. Then seam weld small sections at opposite ends and wipe over with cool wet cloth straight after welding.
