Dash? Condition?

You forgot the best of them all, the RB Z!! I have a friend who would be uber interested.

I got mine through SID280 on these forums, gave me a really good price. Noltec

im not sure, I havnt seen that, but if it works let us know.

It took me 3 days. Im not surprised Im trying to get motivation to add to it cos it takes to time to get it right. Time that could be spent on the car :D

Ok. Pros: 4 pistons, larger surface area gripping, firmer grip. cons: 280zx(direct swap) or larger diameter master needed, little bit heavier than the stock callipers, harder to get performance pads for. Perosnally, after driving down some steep hill climb areas with my brakes, i much prefered them over the stock ones. I never got any fade and pulled up really well. But without the 280 master, they were pretty spongy, infact i found the floor once when i locked up at a roundabout. At the time my setup was: LN106 4 pot solid rotor version, DBA slotted rotors, performance pads (unknown brand). Now: LN106 callipers, performance pads, DBA slotted rotors, 280zx master, braded lines, rear disk conversion. Ill let you know how it goes when i get the car back on the road. Oh and yes you do have the correct callipers, but im unsure whether you have the solid rotor or vented rotor version. The vented rotor version is a bit better in that if you want to you can convert to a vented rotor or just use a solid rotor. Obviously you cant use a vented rotor in the solid version calliper. Also, incase anyone is looking for Hilux callipers, do not buy them through Zed dealers who put a massive price increase on them, if you look on 4wd forums, i recently got a pair for $50 for ZD44TT from www.4wdmonthly.com.au/forum Its a shame it has to come to that too, they shoot themsleves in the foot with things like that.

Welcome and good luck. looks like you have a bit of work to go yet.

Removalists do good prices going backfrom a destination as they are normally empty. If you can talk to a smaller company that is going to be moving, it will be even cheaper. But bus freight has been good for me in the past.

Yeh looks pretty good, sweet it has a 350, but its a freekin Datsun 240Z. Why do the yanks have to turn everything into a yank mobile, as if its not meant to look like a Corvette. It even has a 350 Chev in it and Corvette tail lights!! But I can appreciate the time and effort gone in to it.

This has already been posted, but at least its easy to find now. cheers Im giving this to my panel beater when he does it, just to make it a bit easier for him. Just need money now

yeh definately, swallowed hard when I heard that.

Welcome, picsorban jk

oh damn, RIP buddy.

If you can do it without, its a lot better for the fact there isnt as much chance of scratching the paint when putting the motor and box back in. I have done it on a few cars and whilst not easy, with 2 people it isnt that hard to do.

I think your best bet is to blanket advertise everywhere. "If you advertise, they will come."

Yeh store it at Wakefield and Will and I will give it plenty of engine running time :D jk

yeh thats pretty crap. Very Jag esque

Yeh I have a 3.7, its quite a good midway point for your application and if you can help me track down a decent priced set of 4.1 gears, you can have it for free. This is in a R200, not sure what you have.

Another awsome game on xbox360 is rainbow 6, try it, pretty realistic ecept that you dont have health but instead if you get shot lots at once you go blury then die, but if you back off then unblur, you go back to normal, but its harder than most first person shooters cos you can actually die

Damn, im working that weekend.

Im certainly no expert on L series engines, but I reckon if the tripples are better on worked engines and better flowing up high, they would multiply the gain got from a cam? Sort of like putting big injectors on a stock engine, you wont get mcuh out of it until you do more work then it multiplies the gains. Please correct me if im wrong, im endevouring to learn more about them since I pretty much changed straight to RB.

Ill post up all the footage I took once I can get it off Michele. Was a fun day with some freakin awsome cars, but the Z just looked the best of all (im not biased!!!). Good to finally meet you dude.

coolest reverend ever!!! haha, nice sig. Sorry to hijack the thread, but do you have any more pics Rev, looks like a sweet ride?

Ahh yeh Wouldnt be complete without one

Yeh, fair call. Good luck mate.
