Also saw where there is a manufacturer that has the drier attached to the condenser. Hoped that would be a cleaner look.

Vintage air in 1971 240
Want to throw this out to the forum. Spoke with another member here that’s very familiar with these systems and recommended using copper until a flex point is needed. Want to hear from you guys and experience adding a vintage air or other aftermarket system. At the moment I have a clean slate on moving forward in the engine bay. All of the 280z brackets/ hardware is gone. Thanks and welcome any advice.

[2023] What Did You Do To/with Your Z Today?
What color is your car? Is that a Range Rover paint code. Looks very similar to what I’m respraying my car with. Engine bay is done. Replacing all the lines and upgrading the wiring before I drop the new motor in.

Cleaning my rubber [emoji3]
Some sort of rubber conditioner. Not Armoral. Do some research and you will find something that conditions rubber.

What is Everyone Doing for a Fuel Pressure Regulator?
@the_tool_manI have a relatively new Bosch FPR mated up to my 78 fuel rail with rebuilt injectors if you’re interested. The run time is less than 10 hours. Brought my car back to factory specs and decided to go a different route. The system was removed when I sent the engine to Datsun Spirit. If your interested send me a PM.

Starter failing, battery meter pegged?
I tell ya if I had to do it all over again and had a factory starter/alternator that went south I’d definitely look for someone to rebuild it. The quality we are getting these days is beyond questionable.

Starter failing, battery meter pegged?
Need to dig around to find where that goes. Should be easy to find being red. Most professional audio companies use yellow 12 gauge wire for direct 12V supply to a bridge.

Thanks for the Captains blessing!,,,

Is the red cable coming off the starter going to audio equipment in the car? If so disconnect that until you get this figured out and move on from there.

Starter failing, battery meter pegged?
Was the starter and and alternator failing at that point? The reason I ask is what’s available today is not Mitsubishi. Mostly Chinese junk. Many threads here relating to multiple defective parts right out of the box. Most folks now have it tested before they leave the store for that reason. Please let us know what you bought and where. The starter from the pic doesn’t look like it was a rebuilt original. @stevej has posts out there on how to take voltage measurements on the charging system. It’s pretty in-depth and worth the effort.

Might just be more than one variable here. Give us a history of what you changed when and why. What was the first symptom back in time that involved changing parts.

Well, that throws me way off on my vintage air setup. I assumed that the refrigeration lines were located on the drivers side. Guess I need to go ahead and order my system. Originally I was going to go with the factory line location entry on the firewall.

From that pic it looks like it may be a bit shorter than the Z. Pretty cool.
