Restoration of HLS30-12070
So how to keep track of which goes where while powder coating? Never mind, they're all slightly different lengths. Provided the current free length is close to spec

Restoration of HLS30-12070
Am I correct in believing that some of the springs are corner specific? Some have different colored paint dabs...

EasyDriveUSA electric power steering; wiring diagram or instructions?
What all did you add to the car? If it was me, I would reverse those adds and see if it gets better

bottom of door panel
There is also a curved piece of vinyl covered metal(?) that has screws that hold it to the top edge of the inner rocker panel. That's what the small holes are from.

Possibly found exhaust leak?
Steve makes all these parts by hand. If you order one he will probably cast it just for you or make several for inventory. Send him an email

Nice solid car! Looks like it has a little damage on the left rear wheel arch and the rear corner. Beware, those rear corners are paper thin!

how to sell original series I 240z?
I have worked on it some this year. Mainly blocking panels. I need to post up my current progress. I've been hurt for much of the year and work has been busy, so progress slows down or stops. If I can get it painted things should pick up

L28+(maxima)47 build
Yes, yes it will!

Possibly found exhaust leak?
I would seal them all up! Even the accordion boot. If it ever needs to come out you'll be able to break it loose. Even gaps on the passenger side can cause cabin fumes

Where can I find L20a connecting rods?
I wouldn't build an engine that I didn't have the block machined. Not a lot of cost difference in honing or boring. You'll probably be buying pistons anyway so no additional cost there... I understand wanting to keep the matching block in car but I wouldn't pause one bit about punching it out to a safe size. All that being said, power is made in doing head work over minimal displacement increases

L28+(maxima)47 build
I knew they were long. I have 2 on hand, just didn't know how they compared. Would be interesting to see how the ld28 intake affected torque with the long runners

Why are you opposed to boring your block?

L28+(maxima)47 build
How does the LD28 intake runner size compare to what you have now?
