Also the 280z is already an EFI car so easier to re-power with a more modern EFI engine. The tank and fuel system is already set for high pressure and return and the electrical system already has locations for ECU power and fuel pump power

How did you finish the removable section?

My concern with new locks is the metal. The older metal from Japan is far superior to most of the metal being used now.

Now I have anvil envy!

I get the same screen if I open it in Chrome

I was working more along the lines of being able to combine all the locks I have to rebuild a good set of locks all keyed together. I have a few locks to work with...

On a different note, can I pull the engine and transmission as a unit out of a 510?

I will try to take a picture of the 4 speed adapter. It is a good inch longer than the Z adapters. The speedo gear is correspondingly longer. One is a 16 tooth and one is a 17 tooth. I don't remember which is which. For now I have the Z adapter in the transmission. I need to get the driveshaft shorted and the the shifter up through the tunnel. Then we'll do a road test for proper operation

It's fascinating how politicians around the world let their constituencies vote on something. Then, when they don't get the expected result, they do everything they can to not implement the voted outcome. I have an outsiders perspective on Brexit, but I would think being an independent and autonomous nation would be more desirable than being run over by a bureaucracy in Brussels.

Fascinating, this is what I have. @Mike Any ideas why mine is different? Windows 7 running Firefox

Thanks, I didn't know nylon would absorb water, fascinating. I may try that. The tranny it fit's is an odd 4 speed out of Cody's goon. Really short in length with a large flat cover on the bottom. Will probably never be used again, so if I ruin it, it's not a huge loss

Can you show me in a screen shot? I don't think I have it. It's possible with my diminishing eyesight I am missing it but it's more likely one of my add-ons is blocking it

I am too. Which page? The forum page or the home page...?

Excellent!

Almost a hundred members showing in the area. Surely someone could salvage some of this @hiyabrad not an early car but you might know somebody who could save the pieces. Maybe a local Z mechanic who could salvage stuff

Thanks Chris How do you navigate to it on the site?

Thanks Zed I took a few whacks at the one I con't use but it didn't want to move so I left it f or now. If we have too much speedo error, I will have to try to source the correct one. I have heard many of these are NLA

How much grease was in those half shafts? They look like they have gotten a little warm at some time

Where is the member map these days? I can't find it...

I was surprised the hatch glass was still intact too! Somebody needs to pick this one up.

I thought this was the case You don't! Unless you go aftermarket EFI or turbo and aftermarket EFI

How large of a wafer kit did you source? The ASP one? I ordered the KLOM's for that reason. All of the sources I found for them online seemed to all be direct ship out of China

I thought I would add this here as an easy way to keep info together. I am trying to change speedo drives between different transmissions. Is the metal shaft part of the speedo gear or do the gears press onto the end of the shaft? The transmission I am replacing has a long speedo assembly and the Z transmission uses a shorter assembly. If I can move the plastic gear, I am good. If I can't I have to locate a different drive gear.

Any issues with a stage III came on an EFI car? I believe the OP is running EFI

You need to set the door with the fender on. Both ends need to line up. Get the fender end of the door right first. Use shims if necessary. One, or both or none is fine. If the rear doesn't line up, twist it like I illustrated in my "Lily" thread
