  1. Yes, can you please give us more information about your LED conversion? I was thinking of doing this on my dash lights but had not thought about the tail lights or marker/signal lights. I would like some words of wisdom from someone who has been there. I'd be interested in where you got the parts, what was involved, part numbers if you have them still, etc, etc, etc. I do think that a new thread should be started for this though Zs-ondabrain so as not to take this one off topic.

    Since it's EFI is the wiring harness and ECU included? How much are you thinking shipping to be?

    I didn't have a metric socket large enough (it's larger than a 24mm) so I used a 1 1/16 socket on mine. Hope this helps.

    Yes, you're right...you can not remove it with what you have done. I recently pulled the crank pulley from a 240Z with that AC pulley and found that the AC pulley is not only attached to the main crank pulley with those two small bolts but it us also under the crank pulley bolt. So you must remove the crank pulley bolt (get an impact wrench, I had to remove the radiator to get my impact wrench in there) then the AC pulley will just fall off. Then you can replace the crank pulley bolt. See this thread for a discussion on removing the crank pulley bolt. Easier solution, leave the AC pulley alone.

    Where are you located?

    Impact wrench! This is the only way I have had any luck. However with the engine still in the car I had to pull the radiator to get my impact wrench in there.
  7. I am interested in one for my 240Z but would like to combine the shipping with others that you may have in the works like the tail lights. Can you tell me how progress is coming on any other upgrades like this for the 240Z? I know that you must be extremely busy with this project now...
  8. I was afraid of that. Ironically enough this parts car came from Taft...I'm sure you know where that is since it's only 30 miles or so from you.
  9. The hatch is still available, please take a look at the pix so that you know it's condition. Then shoot me another PM or email and we'll work it out. It will be a bare hatch with no glass even though the pix show the glass still in it.

    Ok, so for those of us who do not get that chanel is there anyone willing to recorder this show and send me a video tape?

    I have a dash out of my parts car for REAL cheap. It's in sad shape but it's something. Where are you located?

    I wasn't sure which forum to put this in... I wanted to find out what Z cars have the gear reduction starters in them?
  13. texasz posted a post in a topic in Carburetor Central
    The local Z wiz has told be before that 750RPMs is the correct idle speed.

    Wanna see pix of this done to a 350Z? Check this out!! This car was at the Z car show in Sept. here in Texas. http://www.pape.ws/gallery/2004_Capital_of_Texas_Z_Car_Show?page=1
  15. That's cool guys, I know how easliy this can happen.
  16. 911....911....9-1-1.... Someone call the police....my thread has been stolen!!
  17. The shift knob that was in it was not stock and it's disintigrated any how. The fuel tank was sold last year. Sorry guys, wish I could help you out with these parts.
  18. Wish I were in Cali too...

    Courtesy Nissan by any chance?

    I have a few questions: Can anyone tell me what size flywheels the different Z cars have? Also, how interchangeable are they? How do you determine what flywheel you should install (i.e. based upon engine block, tranny model, etc)? And how do you determine what clutch you need to buy (i.e. based upon engine block, tranny, flywheel, etc)?
  21. Here's Rebello's website: http://www.rebelloracing.com/ There is also a place in GA call Sunbelt Racing that is supposed to be good and they do the 3.1L strokers as well: http://www.sunbeltperformance.com/
  22. Yes. Major PITA I'm sure.
  23. Yes, now that I sit back and look at it I'm wondering what I am thinking...trying to get all this done this fall/winter. :stupid: I wold tend to agree with you about the engine bay color but there are a couple things I'm working with here, one is the protection of the area and with POR-15 I should never have to deal with the engine bay again. The second is that I'm not any where near ready to paint the car so I can't do the engine bay very well; and I'm not pulling the engine again just to paint the area. Now as for any other feedback....does anyone have any???
  24. No replies. Does this mean that everyone sells them for about the same price?
  25. texasz posted a post in a topic in Old For Sale Ads
    In case anyone is interested I sent the seller this email: and I got the following reply: Some of what he says I can understand. I hate all the tire kickers when I am selling a car but that's part of the process and must be expected. It sounds like he is just unwilling to deal with those types and does not have the time or patients to either. However, some of his attitude is a little negative and would probably tend to put me off too if I was in the market to buy this car.
