I'm doing the RB25DET in a 260Z conversion and wondered whether the Skyline brake servo will fit OK. I have an old 260Z servo but not sure how well it operates, also have a good Skyline servo with master cylinder. They are both approx. 7.5" diameter and the linkage lengths are approx. the same. Will need to change the bolt holes positions and widen out the bulkhead aperture but apart from that are there any other issues / reasons why I can't ? Has anyone tried this ? Also, any problems using the 260Z clutch master cylinder with the RB25DET slave unit ? Do I need to use the Skyline cylinder to make the standard clutch operate correctly ? Note - I have also posted the same …

Hello all. I have been looking around for a Z car for about 2 years now to purchase. I have finally found one that I am 99% positive that I am going to end up purchasing. It is a 1971 240z. I was thinking about dropping in an LS1 into this beast, but since the engine and tranny have been rebuilt, I dont really have a good reason too.

But instead I got an older 240z that is still all stock, in great condition so I am going to pretty much leave it this way. Though I would like to get a little more power out of it.

I had seen a while back that there was some interest in trying to optain the ARITA Speed, S130 Front Airdam's. I have this same thread on HybridZ, and I'm posting here to see if anyone else may be interested. I wanted to gauge the interest in having a group buy to have these imported from Japan. If there is enough interest, I will make some arrangments to see what the cost's would be to make this happen through my JDM distributor. I've already discussed this briefly, and he said he would intertain the idea if there was enough interest. So far there are 3 people onboard.. I would like to see at least 6 before I take it to the information level. 8 would be even better. …

Hi, well just thinking into possibly adding a turbo to my project car (which at the moment is still pretty much junk ) but for later when finally through every single detail of the car Im thinking of changing the L28 crankshaft and swapping it for the L24 to lower the compression and then add a turbo.

I've looked in the archives and did not find anything... Preferrably in the valley. I went to the website, but was hoping someone would have first-hand personal knowledge of a tuner that was familiar with Z's....
