    Is this a 'Banable' offense?

    Hey Warren, As Craig said, if you don't mind sharing it's a great way too keep the cost down. You can however organize your own, but it's much more fun if everyone is staying in the same accom.

    Hey Mike, PLEASE do not shave the head any more then necessary!!! I can't stress this enough. I STRONGLY recommend that you only take the minimal amount off the head - no more. Say .030" . Removing more off the L series head has many drawbacks, include the possibility of head gasket sealing issues, timing chain aliment, cooling issues, softening of the head material... etc. ALL L-series engines should only have the CR altered buy the combustion chamber size, head gasket thickness & piston dish (or lack thereof). FWIW, A particular well known L-series engine builder WILL NOT use a L-series head that has been shaved more then 1.5mm...

    FWIW, if your a cheaparse & still have the original factory inserts, you simply pour out the old fluid & replace it with ATF (or fork oil if your keen). I did this to mine years ago & it works a treat

    L28LD

    C.A.R. replied to Toecutter's topic in Engine

    The man has taste - Hed PE overlay music LD28 needs a Turbo for that extra grunt factor.

    Dimitri, I'm going to use the 280ZX NA EFi Manifold. I got it for SFA. I may modify the back of the plenum to remove the 'step' in it, but I'll have a look at it when the time comes. ECU will be a one thing I won't be skimping on...

    Cheers guys. Nothing wrong with the 2+2's - I like em because I'm a tall bugger & they have more headroom Lets just say the only parts that will be factory in the turbo conversion will be the manifolds... (Pauly, I procured the Turbo Manifold ex Japan. I wouldn't touch a SC14 if my life depended on it - even if I had a toight budget. PM 'Thehelix112' about what he thought of his SC setup.)

    Oh dear... May I suggest you do some more research before asking questions like that.

    I've decided to start a proper thread on my car, rather then adding to the 'bodywork' thread on the car. Anyway, I bought the car as a unrego'd wreck about 7-8 years ago from a family man in Melton. I then set about getting it to RWC then driving it as a daily for the next couple of years, & using in club sprints & hillclimbs. I also took out the GCC 'Sports Car' class in 2002 18 months or so before DatNats '07 I decided the bodywork really needed some serious attention. The thread detailed here is all about how I went about de-rusting it...: http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,670.0.html The car specs are very mild: L28 with a mild cam, 10.3:1CR, 240Z SU's & Headders. Rebulilt 5-speed box. 3.9 R180 diff with a slip limiter fitted. Lowered on King springs & re-oiled factory dampers. Front Brakes: Hilux/4Runner S12W Iron 4-spot calipers & S13 Rotors. Std pads. Rears Brakes: are 280ZX discs. 280ZX 15/16" (23mm) Master Cylinder. Question & comments welcome (This post will be updated when I CBF )

    OK guys, I think we all need to pull our heads in - including myself. Try to keep it on topic please & avoid personal insults.
  23. C.A.R.
    My apologies Nato. I guess I read into your comment too much... Feel free to re-post your comment.
  24. C.A.R.
    Firstly, PLEASE FILL IN YOUR LOCATION!!! Pick of said wheels might help, also.
  25. C.A.R.
    What with all the Anal connotations mate? Got some issues your dealing with? Anyway... as we don't know where you are (AS YOU HAVEN'T FILLED IN YOUR LOCATION!!!), you could try 'MD Spares' in Horscroft place, Morrabbin, Vic. (Also try posting in the right section please - there not just there to look pretty...)
