i actually did look at them but figured that since neither Nissan or Datsun where under the list of vehicles they make cars for then they were not supported. I sent them an e-mail to see how it goes. Thanks SuDZ

How long they going to have it now? Hope it all goes well this time. SuDZ

The price looks high on paper but you have to figure in the fact that they are three brandnew built for this speciific application. I mean look at Ztherpay where if you can a new set of the stock carbs from them it is like $900. Now with the tripple webbers it is another carb as well. SuDZ

I was curious if anyone has ever used anything like this - kwiklift I am looking to see waht your experiences with it are? How much you liked it or what you may not have liked about it? It does not have to be this exact one but maybe something like it? SuDZ

Does anyone know where I can get replacment rigid brake lines for the 260Z's? I tried giving courtesy and motorsport a e-mail but no responce so far. Just curious if anyone found a good place for these. SuDZ

Looks great dude. Nice work. SuDZ

Good luck with it. Hopefully it all works out right or he does decent repairs. SuDZ

If it is anything like my front tire then the previous owner thought you should tighten them to about 682lbs of pressure. I was actually bending the tire iron and it still was not coming off. Dang PO. SuDZ

hehe thats a great picture. SuDZ

Where did you get the rigid brake lines? SuDZ

Alright, found my leak. It looks like the leak is the tubing that connects into the slave. The problem is removing this hose. Does anyone have any idea on how to remove it? I have it removed from the slave itself but not from the other end that heads up towards the hood of the car. Where it conencts I can not really geta hold on it with a wrench and even when I dothere is not really any space to move the wrench. has anyone removed this before? How did you go about doing it? SuDZ

You ain't kidding. I have only had my car a few weeks and have already come across a few things that other owners goofed or "jimmy rigged" to get going again. SuDZ

Wow, looks nice. Real nice. SuDZ

Alright I will check out the slave. It is strange though cause a bunch of posts I found on here said Master and so did haynes. At least I am not the only one not finding a place to bleed it on the master. This will be a nice item to add to my list tommorow. SuDZ

Sorry to hear about this. I know how you feel, I have been noticing my dog who is now 15 having a harder time lately. I know how much you can love them. SuDZ

I have no idea why that did not register with me. I was in a bit of a hurry taking care of some stuff then I was like Doh! :stupid: SuDZ

That is waht I thought and told them but they were telling me otherwise. Perhaps they saw one of the blow through kits at some point and thought it was stock. SuDZ

Alright sounds like it will go pretty well then. I will make it a project for my little brother to help me out with tommorow. Thanks SuDZ

I have been meaning to get the pictures up but my camera was just lent out to my parents for their trip. So maybe in another week or two now. Right now I am trying to get the engine running right, overheating issues fixed I believe ( at least in my short trips at night to prevent the law finding out hehe) and I am trying to get it too stop running so rich and backfiring. As well as bleeding things like clutch,breaks etc. After that is done then I am going to attack the body. I dod not know yet how much of a frame off I am going to do but want to strip out seats and caprets on the inside to take care of some problems like seats and floors. Then I will have to sand down the outside and prep the body. Luckily for me I have two uncles in the autobody trade who can help me out with tips and the final painting. So I am hoping to get the body looking good this winter and have it available to drive for the summer. Hopefully it actually workds out that way. Where on the east coast are you? SuDZ

I had someone ask me earlier if the 280Z was offered in a turbo model with carbs. I was not sure. Is this a setup it came in? If not is there this setup running around? SuDZ

I was looking to remove my carburetors for a rebuild. I have a friend who can help me rebuild them and show me a few things about carbs. Only problem is I have to go to him to do so. Since my Z is not on the road yet, so I would remove the carbs for this. I looked in the Haynes manual and they had no info on actually taking them out that I seen (granted I looked quick today before work). I was wondering if it was in the book "How to rebuild your OHC engine" or whatever the title is close to that. I am waiting for it to come in still to my local store on order. So basicly I am wondering if it is not in there are there any other places you would reccomend looking to for removal or any of you have any input to add into this? SuDZ

just realized in that whole story I did not even say. It is a 1974 260Z. SuDZ

When looking into bleeding my clutch due to a leak, I had a question. When I am looking at the clutch master (where the resevoir is to fill the clutch fluid next to the windshield washer fluid) I was reading that therer should be two screws on the underside of the body., one having the rubber piece on it and being able to drain. When I was feeling around I only felt one potential screw and nothing else. Also it had no rubber on it. Am I looking in the wrong place? Should I be at some other area to drain the fluid? SuDZ

As far as Z specific stores around here that is going to be tough. There are a good amount of junkyards though in Cambridge (right outside of Boston) and further up in the suburbs. Also there are tons of parts stores that can order or carry forieng only parts. So those might be places to check for as well when looking around. SuDZ

Man now I really hope I get to head down there for a couple weeks. hehe I will be going picture crazy of cars and people will wonder why I am so facinated by "just another skyline". SuDZ
