    ^^i was assuming that the driveshaft was also swapped.... sorry. did you replace the entire diff arse'y? do you also verify that nothing was bent? that's all i can think of.

    did anyone else notice that the windshield wipers are mounted opposite of how they should be on that model? gonna look hot.
  5. chickenwafer - our cars' vins don't specify the engine. unless the person inspecting the car is knowledgeable aboutZs, he/she won't be able to tell. that car is pretty damn clean.
  6. the side profile DEFINITELY looks Z.... AAMOF the rear window kind of looks 240K-ish.....

    crazy. it makes sense though.
  8. i have a 240 collar with a 280 pp and clutch and it works fine. engages a little off the ground, but it works. if this thread is still valid, adjust the length of the arm on the clutch cylinder

    mos def sounds like a driveshaft issue. check that AND the u-joints. if you have spicer(sp?) u-joints then just shoot some oil in there.... otherwise look at replacement

    HAHAHA,,,,, that's pretty damn funny, carl......
  17. i appreciate a gar that had a lot of time and love put into it. IMHO, the interior conversion doesn't look half bad, actually pretty nice. but not my style. i'm still even debating if i'm going to put racing seats in or not..... MAYBE some vintage recaros, but stock seats are damn comfy....
  18. bump steer spacers... gonna have to look into that! my car was lowered by a PO, so i'm gonna see that. got a new VR for the grey car; i'm gonna lift yellow up next week and check her out..
  19. i'm pretty sure it's not understeer. i thought (hoped) that was it at first, but now i'm pretty sure it's a mechanical issue. i CAN initiate understeer if i wanted to, but this is a different feeling. i can almost feel something slip. i can't really describe it..... i'm pretty sure it's going to be the rack (OF COURSE), so i'm going to take it in to zwhizz sometime next week. the guy that was going to buy my car is probably not going to buy it now, so i' will have that car good to go as soon as i exchange this faulty voltage regulator i got from auto zone... i wonder where i heard rag joint form...... :scratches head:
  20. it's not like break-neck speeds. i could be going through the turn at the same speed and halfway through the angle changes. am i the only one that calls it a rag joint? it's the rubber bushing thing connecting the 2 segments of the steering column.
  21. my wheels go from like 45 degrees to 30 degrees while the steering wheel remains the same....
  22. i guess i should take her in. only problem is i have no other car....
  23. say i'm going around a tight corner, like a freeway onramp or offramp (you know one of the 25mph ones).. i like to go a LITTLE faster than 25 mph. anyway, when i'm doing "high speed" turns, the steering starts out normal and then the wheels straighten out a lot, so i have to turn in like almost a half a turn to get it back to ALMOST the previous angle. where do i start? i was thinking it was the rag joint, but upon further inspection it appeared normal.... thx
  24. only thing is that my head is set up for an internally oiled cam and the cam i'm getting is externally oiled.
  25. ok, let me check that out..... but isn't removing the cam towers a no-no?
