73 240z still for Sale 5speed 280z motor
in your gallery? If it is it looks to be a great buy!

Identify this diff
a Z31 or Z32 diff, thats for sure, and if you also look it looks to use stub axles like the 240-280Z's not CV shafts. Looking at it my best guess would be from maybe a 240sx or the like, that isnt from a Z car.

Now I am very sad.
I cant see trading in a #16 of 40 factory resto for a 350Z. I just dont get it. Well as they all say to each his own

Z Radiator
for about the same price and made by Modine. I had one in a 73 I owned and never had a problem with it. It worked well.

leaking hatch
shape I wouldnt think that it was the culprit. Usually it is the seal to the hatch and the secondary seal that most forget about that goes about 75% of the way around the hatch, its the smaller of the two and it goes up the sides and around the top. Mine on my 72 used to leak till i replaced that one little rubber seal. You might want to have someone spray a hose over the rear hatch area and glass to be sure of exactly where it is coming from so you dont spend unecessarily.

Vibration under acceleration and speed
Then it is most definetly something going on in the rear of the car. It could be many things as most suggested. The first and easiest to check is the tire balance and make sure the tires themselves arent out of round. Another thing is wheel bearings, brakes hanging dragging, u joints, drive axle, diff, diff bushings tranny bushings, rear control arm bushings worn and pushing the wheels out. Do you notice any tire wear that you hadnt before?

I coudlnt tell what it was I just took a guess. It has so many things hanging off of it and on it.

undercoating removal
Is some elbow grease, a scraper and a heat gun.

280z 'Race Edition' on E-bay.
As far as that car goes, well I guess you dont want to keep your front wheels on the ground so thats why the valance is gone. Did anyone happen to notice the "NEW" centerline type dish wheels that cost 1500!!! and just to think no center caps either. What a rip

How Much are you guys Paying for Head Work?
You can expect to pay anwhere from 150 for some clean up to 1000 for a full job on a head. It all goes with the area and work you are wanting to get done. I think for the price that bambi got from Rebello you cant beat what they did.

What about 40's?
They look great sound awesome and are a nice addition to any engine bay. Now if you dont have the cam and head work needed to use them your one, throwing your money away and two, wasting gas. At the same time as with the prior post, you will get more out of the triples, but why spend the money for a small gain. Its the same with an FI engine, you dont need more fuel or larger injectors unless you have more engine to use it. On another note, the su's can be made to put out great power as well. Point in fact is on person I know thats running 12's in the 1/4 with a 2.9 dual su motor.

260z intake manifold
That is the casting number and they are said to give you a little more. Though you wouldnt want to use the boat anchors that came with the 260Z unless your doing a full on resto. Stick with the earlier carbs.

Vibrating shifter
Get yourself a set of brass bushings and end the problem forever.

88-89 R200 Lsd
The R200 LSD your seeking is on the 4/87 - 89 300ZX Turbo only. It has a finned rear cover with both horizontal and verticla fins. If you look through the LSD meaning the axle shafts are off of it you will be able to see straight through it. 250 is a very good price for this unit.

Watanabe's on ebay that I want....
about those wheels. Do a search on RS Watanabe, they dont look right to me. They also look like they have been freshly painted as well. Something seems wrong with this ebay auction, but I could be wrong

Japanese Domestic Market
I talked to the owner of the site via the internet. His name is Nuyen if Im spelling it correctly from memory, really nice guy. Hes a Toyota GX71 fan. He didnt mind but rather would like people to come visit his site, reason for putting it on the web to view his pics. I told him of our site he said he would take a visit. He also pointed me to some links of pics that I could dl here of some really nice Z's. what was funny is one of the sites that he pointed me to had the west coast nationals posted on it. He has a laugh as he said he didnt understand the reasoning behind some of the American modifications, then pointed me out to the pic of the 4x4 260Z. Great guy to talk to. Well Ill have some more pics to dl later.

I have asked that these pics be removed as I dont want the site getting into any kind of trouble from me. I had checked into it and those few pics are copyright protected. Also you were dead on about the location of the pics, they were from an event that was at Sagamiko, it does look very beautiful though, a perfect setting for a car show. Thanks for making me pay more attention and looking into those pics. I hope all that had a chance to see them enjoyed them while they were here. If anyone else wishes to view those or more I can point you to the site from where they came. Thanks again Alan for the heads up.

Getting Ripped in shipping?!
I just shipped a ECU, wrapped 4 times over in bubble wrap and then padded on all sides with popcorn styrofoam. 2 day priority mail was like 9 dollars. Im sure this item weighed more then the dimmer switch, this was with insurance and delivery confirmation and tracking.

Japanese Domestic Market
It seems that Ive gotten some mixed reviews of the recent pictures that Ive posted in the member galleries. Some like, some dislike. Im wondering if I should even post the other 20 pics that I have. Dont want to start a problem, I just love all the older style japanese cars, and its something that we dont or didnt have here in the states. Me personally I love most cars, just wanted to point out the difference in that era of styling with different japanese car makers and well some cars that I really like. Tell me what you guys think, Im only trying to share the wealth.

3 10" subwoofers.... any design ideas??
If you know anyone thats good with making molds for fiberglass, this is something you could do. Get two molds, one of each side of the rear panels. Then build those panels out some away from the rear quarters, angle them at about 30 degrees toward the front of the car. Cut your hole out, brown bread or however you want to do it for sound proofing. Put the third inside the spare tire well. You end up with a very clean looking install and plenty of room.

Lound Electric Fuel Pump.
