Rear Sway Bar
The brackets in the picture that I attached are used to replace the stock brackets that support the rear of the A-arms. To me it is a simple install, of course I installed the one in my previous car when it was torn apart like your car , Michael. The bar I currently own is not installed so I don't have a pic of it installed.

Hi Michael & Ken I can't tell who manufactured the one I own as I got it from eBay, BUT I can tell you that Ground Control and Suspension Techniques sell rear sway bars similar to mine that mount to the vertical brackets where you mount the rear part of the A-arms. I n previous thread started by texasz regarding rear sway bars, I provided a link to a picture showing the kit sold by Ground Control.

We're ALL missing her pic. She hasn't posted one.

Ed: Were you mounting a bar from, or meant for a early 260, or an aftermarket bar? Steve (ZVoiture) inidcated that a 280 rear bar wouldn't fit on a earlier model Z car. carl

Doesn't look like the one that I have. Mine mounts to the suspension support brackets, not the chassis

Yeah, we're sorry too. :mad:

Get a good model. Smith and Wesson makes a good one. Ruger has another fine model also.......and Beretta, Glock, Dan Wesson, etc, etc

Those cars mentioned above were not available in the USA, except the RX7

The thief who observes you leave the car will know what you've done(taken rotor). He just walks to the nearest Autozone & buys one or waits until next time he sees your car and he's be ready to drive your car home. With an immobilizer, he'd have to know it was installed, what circuit it breaks, and where; in order to defeat it. You could make it so that the power to the ditributor AND the power to the fuel pump are disconnected with separate immobilizers (redundancy) With a kill switch he'd have to know it was installed and find it. (which could be easy or hard depending on how cleaver one is when installing it.

Anyone with 5 bucks (cost of a rotor) can still steal your car.

Wouldn't hurt to give it a try. I spoke with her almost two weeks ago when I paid for my recent order, and I reminded her about a picture. She siad she;d "look" for one. I know she has a digicam (she's been kind enough to email some pics of used parts I wanted) so her husband/significant other/neighbor could snap a pic for her. Serously, give her a reminder request for a mugshot.

Immobilizers WILL work on early cars, wether you short the starter to start or not. IF the immobilzer breaks the wire TO the coil (or FROM the coil to the dist), the car isn't going to start without that break being jumped. Additionally, an immobilizer CAN be used to cut power to an electric fuel pump, so that is an option as well. Nothing will stop a determined thief with time to over-ride your deterrant system. All you can do is make your car less attractive to the opportunist thief.

FS: '02 Vibrant Blue Spec V
OK, I admit it. I'm an idiot. What is a 2002 Spec V ? Is this a 350Z? or something else? I'm confused.
-
260Z Truth
Maybe because it is perceived (by some folks) as a failed model due to it only existing (in the USA) for 1 year. Lack of Flat top carbs, and the addition of EFI *may* be things that the 280Z can count as "improvements" over the 260 (and 73-240Z)

Other Datsuns Section
Because this ISN'T Othercars.com , We're about CLASSIC Z CARS Because "many of us" wouldn't want to dilute the focus of the club to include Edsels, Kaisers, Holdens, Yugos, Renaults, etc. (and in my case Z31/32's, R32's, etc either) Because there are PLENTY of other places for people with "other cars" to hang out with people owning similar "other cars". This isn't WALMART!

what about the new z's?
I thought so also. Can't imagine what is/was "experimental" about it. (Well, maybe is was an experiment in terms of IF the market would accept the car since it no longer lived up to the "legendary SPORTS CAR" that preceded it) I'm ducking for cover now!

All right you lot, let's have you.
Well, Chloe (mwz) comes to mind, but I don't think she's following this thread anymore. A mass PM campaign may be our only hope to encourage her to post. I'm sure there are other people yet to post pics, but I can't think of the names at this moment.

Glad your computer woes are behind you. Fish??? Oh, THAT little thing. I thought is was a hang nail! There now Alfa, don't you feel better now that you've finally revealed the "before" picture that Rick and I have been waiting so patiently for? It wasn't too traumatic, was it? The photo might even get you a date or two. Some women like the outdoor-sportsman type, and with that prize catch to show off...............who knows, you might get luckier than that hang nail, err fish!

Barret Jackson Auction is ON!
Last February, I was searching the B-J site and found that Z car pictured with the $75K sale price was also sold a few years later at a FAR, FAR lower price. Same picture, same SN listed. I called B-J and talked briefly to someone who looked up the transactions and said that he believed the $75K price was a misprint on the site. He would not give me any further info about the car or the sale price. Lot #24 sold in 1995 HLS3015653 Lot #304 sold in 2000 HLS3015653

Geez, two months to ge the computer fixed. Is that the "normal" timeframe for service? I'd be flipping out. Almost sounds like they used your computer to train new technicians or something. Yeah, I wonder where that virus came from. Brisbane, Melbourne, or Sydney. (not funny though)

If I remove all the Ricer stickers from their cars, can I have your Cavallino badge too?
