280z - Rear Bumper Term and Door Bumper Advice
@EuroDat, Did you use 2 different sized cutters? If so what size did you use?

280z - Rear Bumper Term and Door Bumper Advice
Thanks @Patcon, looking back at the pics. I believe there are just two spot welds on the bracket. In the first pic I drilled in the center of the bracket. Creating that large hole. I agree just try to cut through the bracket material only. So 3/8 is not too large for these welds?

280z - Rear Bumper Term and Door Bumper Advice
This is my first attempt removing a spot weld. After looking at my first attempt, I assume the goal is not to drill all the way through. Just enough to remove the weld correct? The bit I’m using is 3/8. Does that seem to large for theses spot welds?

280z - Rear Bumper Term and Door Bumper Advice
Jumping on this thread, Please forgive me. The first photo of the sight shield is what I’m attempting to remove. I bought a spot weld tool from ZCD. Drilled out the first spot weld and the bracket is still attached solid. Can anyone shed some light on this before I attempt the others? Here’s a pic of the first weld I removed.

8.5” Brake Booster Gasket?
My 78 280 had a very light silicone based adhesive on the back of the booster when it was installed. I also was expecting a gasket.

I see what you mean after looking closer. A little over kill. Looks like the bit im using is too large.

Shifter Lever Bushing P/N ??

Shifter Lever Bushing P/N ??
Perfect, I’ve searched everywhere I know of with no luck. Is there a Carpartsmanul for ZX’s out there somewhere? Thanks for the information!

Shifter Lever Bushing P/N ??
Hmmm, saw a post on AtlanticZ talking about that. Now where to find an older shift rod......

Shifter Lever Bushing P/N ??
Trying to locate the Nissan p/n for this shifter bushing. All I can find is the older style bushings for 70-78 transmissions. I have a FS5W71B close ratio from a ZX. Courtesy gave me a couple of p/n’s but we’re the older type bushings. I’ve got another order going to them and want to add the bushings. Appreciate the help!

"77 Z issues with KYB + VOGTLAND lowering springs
I found a set on eBay that are supposed to fit the 280 series. Another member here just put a set on his car. I assume you would want a progressive spring right?

"77 Z issues with KYB + VOGTLAND lowering springs
Has anyone had experience with the vogtland and eibach springs as a comparison on lowering a 280? Huge bumpers removed therefore riding even higher than stock. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

loose Distributor CAP = Perfect idle
Installing a pressure gauge between the filter and fuel rail is a great diagnostic tool for monitoring your delivery. Inexpensive and will provide diagnostic feedback for the fuel system. IMO

Do you have a fuel pressure gauge in series to monitor your pressure? I’ve scanned back through the post but did not see where you mentioned fuel pump pressure/activity etc.
