Futofab sells this ........requires just two holes in the rear subframe.

Just glad someone in media loves the S30’s like we do......can’t argue, the car sounds awesome at 4000 rpm.....would’ve loved to heard it at 7500 rpm! Speedhunters I share your excitement.....”keep up the fair work”!

I bought this from those guys.....I’m getting my body guy to restore this for my wall.......they did a great job of shipping. However, I hope their prices on used parts are negotiable....way too high. IMO

......a beautiful car AND a beautiful wife. pazt2prezent.....hang around old boy.....you won’t believe the good info on this forum....it takes a lot of personalities to form a forum. Some can irritate, but they sure know their stuff. Zedhead can be a D***head sometimes (lol), but he’ll find an answer to your problems. Hang around a while....I think you’ll fit right in. After all.....they are great little cars....that’s what it’s all about!

I want a bottle of whatever Blue is drinking!

Them 3’s are staying in Virginia....the 2 is a .480 lift 280 duration....not sure about the power band.

Steve....Did you decide on a Cam yet? If you are still interested in my new Isky Stage II, I’ll let her go. I’ve got two Stage III backups, so I won’t be needing it. $195.00 .....I’ll pay shipping. Guy

Guess you could say "if the factory put it in , we should" IMO Most of the Z's after 45 years don't have it in there anyway.....dealers choice.

If you are going to pull the head, go back with a better head IMO, and flat tops if they are dished. Don't go Stage II, have Isky grind you a Stage III.....you won't be sorry.

Without smog equipment, my cars are happier running 17 degrees advance at idle (1000 rpm). The 73 E88 head isn’t your best choice for a performance head (large chambers, small cam and a small intake valve.......low compression).....does the N42 block run dished pistons? If so, that means even lower C/R. Also, you could check your air fuel ratio on your triple setup. As far as the chain marks, you could go to the number 3 timing hole on your cam sprocket and see if that compensates for a tired chain, or better still install a new chain. Never easy when you don’t know what a previous owner did to the engine.

Similar to what we did with the 71. Beautiful work on a beautiful car.....I love white!

None are stock.....all are modified L28’s.....HP varies from 190 at the flywheel to 250 (Stroker). Only thrash em in a straight quarter mile run.....Quaife R180 ok? I don’t really want to do an R200 swap if not necessary.

Thanks Tom.....you bet I’ll take it to a pro then. Is the Quaife unit stronger than the stock? Would that eliminate the need to go R200? How much horsepower is too much for an R180 Quaife LSD ?

Just curious Tom and Mike. What is involved in buying the Quaife R180 LSD insert that Whitehead sells and installing in our existing R180 diff? Is that a job for the do it yourselvers or is it a job for a diff shop?

Thanks Mike.....cool site....hope to see you at ZCON this year. Are you coming?

Sounds great.....can you PM me their contact info and web address. Thanks Mike! Guy

How much was it Mike and can you use the stock 240Z half shafts without mods?

Wow.....You’re really moving ahead. I don’t think anyone on this forum realizes how incredible this build is going to be Brandon. It’ll be in magazines for sure.....can’t wait to see a little Safari Gold color applied.....perfect blend of old and new, along with a beautiful new RB 26 NA. Charge on!

The site works great Steve. How’s it shaping up?

Had a spoiler installed on my 73. Before and after. Also, we booked our hotel room for ZCON.....18th, 19th and 20th.

Looks like you have most of your body parts now. Can’t wait to see this rendering come to life!

Agree.....I think it’s an RB 25 or 26. The main bearing caps are all joined in the picture.....twin cam......really cool engine.

Hi Mike.....I think it’s great that you bring back these old posts.....always fun to see some of the early members.....keep em coming. Guy

Lumens.....Here are the 73 pistons shaved and installed. If you decide to have them machined, do it before you install the rings.

Me too Blue.....I’ll buy you a drink!
