Where are the leads when you detect a one-volt drop?

whats it worth
Yeah, don't pour too much money into that one. Just fix it up enough to enjoy driving it.

Ignition sanity check
Something doesn't fit right. Is there any chance you have a ZX distributor or some other modification?

whats it worth
Considering you posted elsewhere that someone painted it red over the original color, it wouldn't have much value to someone who values the citrus green. (repaint<original) Rust drives the value down more. If you were looking to make money off of it, you will probably generate more income in parting it out. Otherwise, drive it.

Fuel leak
I think we found your problem. 7PSIG>4.3PSIG. You need a pressure regulator downstream to use that fuel pump.

Fuel leak
What is the pressure of the fuel pump? The stock pump specs are 3.4 to 4.3 PSIG, so the electric fuel pump should provide a similar pressure.

Pictures would help with valuation. Also what do you mean by "pretty ruff"?

emissions fuel check valve
My guess is that you're typing something wrong. It came up here, too. NissanParts.cc - Your #1 Source for OEM Parts and Accessories Of course, if you give that part number to your local dealer, they might be able to beat the price when considering shipping.

emissions fuel check valve
The part he's looking for is a check valve that lets in make-up air as you run the engine, but it won't let fuel vapors out when the tank warms. Part number 38 in the first link. It's not marked as NLA, so it may still be available.

emissions fuel check valve
Year? Nissan part number? Federal or California emissions?

Help....Z won't start
Okay, that is definitely your accessory relay. Do the other checks and get back to us on the results.

Help....Z won't start
1. Check the voltage while trying to start the car. Does it drop? 2. Check the voltage at the starter solenoid. 3. Check to see if your grounds are in good shape, especially to your solenoid. If it is a relay you are hearing, it is the accessory relay. You may be hearing the solenoid. Figure out where the click is.

How do I install new Brembo (Corvette c6) 4 piston brakes on a 76' Datsun 280Z?
Give the kid a chance. He may have a plan. I lean toward him biting off more than he can chew, but he may learn more than I know by trying and not succeeding. You have to admit that he does have ambition.

By the way, Google revealed this thread: Brembo's in 240z - Brakes, Wheels, Suspension and Chassis - HybridZ It's not big on real info, though.

What inspired you to go with the Brembos from a C6? What rotors do you plan on using? What about the proportioning valve? Are you planning on doing anything with the rear brakes? Any idea of how much bigger wheels you'll need to clear the brakes and calipers? You'll have a lot of custom fabrication in front of you. You'll need to figure out how to mount the calipers, too. Have you looked over at Hybridz to see if someone else has done this? How much do you know about brakes?

Looking for my first Zcar
Well, I didn't notice any different Z cars when I was walking through the garage last night, so unfortunately, it wasn't me.

Yes, I forgot about Frankenstein. What did he ever do with that one?
