Part ID Please
I have three parts that all look the same, one has a label that can be read clearly and it has this information on it: 17011 N4765 A40-000 008 8214 L28 The 8214 is 'stamped' on the label and presumably the serial number, I can only guess that the L28 indicates the part is for the L28 engine. I have Googled the other numbers and come up with nothing. Has hose inlet/outlet so I'm thinking a pump of some kind. I have another part to add here, it's a section of wiring with a part number 27155 E4400 which I was also unable to locate via Google.

EGR vs. Non-EGR Intake
Can someone please school me on this? I'm not up on FI systems and have heard this tossed around...what's the difference? What's the advantage/disadvantage either way? Pix to compare/contrast would be great!

Does anyone have Reddat's Phone #?!!
I'm with most of the others on this as I have said in past threads about this guy...NEVER do business with him.

Massive Pile Of Parts!!!
Not taken negatively at all. There are a couple R200s in there as well as a couple more on the cars (there are 4 cars total I also acquired). In fact that pic was taken even before I had picked up everything...the pile is even larger now that it has all been picked up from the seller's shop. I highly doubt there is an LSD in this group and if I find one I'll likely keep it for my Z. Sorry man. Now if there are two of them.... ME NEITHER!! Yep, that's my plan...if you look at the pic you'll see it's kind of that way already with all the suspension and intakes together, lots of interior parts in the same boxes, etc. I have a lot of work ahead of me though. I've already got some stuff photographed and entered. I am setting up a website that will have a complete list of what I have. I'm doing it this way because I'm a member of at lease 4 Z car forums/websites plus there's always craigslist and I just can not maintain an accurate list in all those places. The site is done and I've started populating it as I've been taking pix and documenting what I have. Probably another week or two before I release the site to the public and really start selling stuff. Income = Money For My Z Project!! So please buy everything I have!

Unknown Misc Parts - What Are They?
Thank you all for the replies...I knew I recognized the top right part, I just couldn't figure out where I had seen it before.

Fuel Tank Differences
Hmmmm....I guess that's possible as there was a 300ZX the guy wanted to include in the sale and I turned him down as I have no use for an empty shell (engine, tranny, and entire rear end were already gone).

Massive Pile Of Parts!!!
Not in this case, many good parts! I'll have to get back to you, I've got more I'm picking up tomorrow then will begin the task of determining what I have, photographing it, pricing it, and posting it for sale.

10 different part numbers!?!? Geeeezzzz!!! I had planned on posting a pic if no answer was received, I just had not been able to take the pic until this evening. Here it is...

Fuel Tank Differences
Good info in that thread thank you. Though it does not address my specific question. I think the fuel tank I have is from a 280ZX and would like some input on what that tank looks like, size, etc. Anything to help identify it.
-
Fuel Tank Differences
Anyone got pix of the different Z fuel tanks? I have a square-ish one that I think may be out of a 280ZX and would like to confirm this.

Z Autocrossing with new camera- GoPro Hero Wide
Ya got any pix of where/how the camera is mounted? It looks very low and centered, like in the front grill or valance.

Installing Anti-Squeal Shims
I've got to be honest guys, I have never installed those when doing brakes and never had an issue. I know I probably should install them, they are included for a reason...I've just never had any squeeling after installing without them though.

Penetrating Oil Research
Only one can!?!? I've used 3-4 on one parts car before...I'd love to have something that works a bit better so I could use less of it. Time and patience is key though.

L24 Cam sprocket nut removal
Agreed! I used the screwdriver/wrench trick on the first Z motor I tore down which didn't work so I end up having to buy an impact wrench. I would look back either! Way easier and faster to do many things now including swapping wheels.

Driving Lights
And my most recent experience is with our new 2007 Silverado...a GM truck. A good point was made about them being part of the headlight though, on my 2000 4Runner this is the case and the lower lights under the bumper only come on when the headlights are turned on. So with that said I beileve I should be eating a bit of crow. :embarrass: That does sould like how fog lights would be aimed. Completely as an aside, I remember in the mid '80s having to adjust my driver side headlight down because it was aimed too high and the guy at the inspection place said that the reason the driver side is lower than the passenger side is because it if it's aimed too high it hits the driver's side view mirror and reflects directly in the driver's eyes. Makese good sense...just have a big truck come up behind you when you are in a smaller (lower) auto and you are blinded by their lights reflecting in your mirrors (I fixed this with 5% window tint all the way around including a 10" eyebrow on this car...though none of that was legal).
