The 3.70 R180 open was only in the Maxim automatic car from the 80's, ask me how I know. The 3.90 in the 240Z were not in any US cars. 3.90, 4.11, 4.28 were all in the 720 4x4 truck front.

Looks like I have the pieces you were looking for. I pulled them out and washed them up a bit. I'll get you some pictures tomorrow afternoon. I assume you were looking for black vinyl, seeing you car is blacked out on red. Looks nice!

I have a few parts cars, I'll see if there is anything vinyl pieces that could be of use. Maybe Sat. before I can dig into the task.

Looks like you just need the bushings. The stock bushings are still available through Nissan. $37.68 each through my choice of dealer. 55555-E4100 and 55554-E4100 If you dig into things and find you need more parts as in metal bits I do have some spares.

Looks like some other stuff going on in the bottom of that picture. What is the toggle switch and wire nut all about? @Patcon I did mean spark erosion, in that I think it eats through the aluminum faster that brass/copper. It happened to mine. I have an older CDI unit on my set up as well.

Try and find a cap with brass "teeth" instead of the aluminum one you show in you cap. They hold up better. My cap did the same with the aluminum. Alas like most things nowadays, cheaper components at the same price as the good ones used to be.

My Tokico's had the same spring failures. bottoming out on every bump. Coil binding I think it is called. I ended up going with Eibach's on the Illumina's and have had no issues since. I still have the reds if you want to try them.lol

Some forum info from 2007 about the two variants.

That is a coolant drain for the block.

Mostly just oil, blown out seals. I don't think anything mechanical would get damaged. I have never heard of anyone filling the diff up and driving it. No first hand reports.
