dirt cheap!

To get come up with a ball park figure..... More info will be needed. Details should be in logbook. What sort of money are you looking at getting for it?

I'll look into that Doug, but don't think it'll fit.

You've read my mind there Jason. Can buy some tooling, pipe and nuts for about about $60.

I want to do the swap at home. Not in a shop. Which means it has to be done beforehand. So measurements and thinking need to be done. Been to 2 brake places and they both only want to do straight pipes.

Looking at changing to a Patrol master cylinder. Asked some brake places to copy the current lines from brake distribution block to where they'll actually be. But they don't really want to do it. So was thinking I could just do it myself, if I had the right tools. Anyone got some, local to eastern suburbs Melbourne, that I could borrow? Thanks, Simon

This is a full synthetic oil. I've been led to beleive that mineral oils are better for the older L series engines Also, 15W-50 or 20W-60?

Might seem like a silly question, but here goes anyway.......... Is there a spot we can park our Z's? Or do I bring another car?

What's involved in the conversion? Does an L series bell housing attach to the front? So just machining to that? And maybe a custom tail shaft? What ratios are they?

Looks tidy, but.......... If only it was a factory colour with chrome bumpers!

Never heard of P21s, until now. Looks interesting. Where did you get it from? Hope all is well Dave

I did it last year. I sucked. Just found I'd forget to check my team each week.

Looks good Dave. What products and pads you using?

Regardless on the model car, if it's too far gone, you need to reconsider what you want to do. As far as it being a 280ZX. I cop a bit of flack. But it's in jest as my car is freakin awesome! There have been more and more ZX's being revived over the years. Have a look through the projects.

^^^^^^ This

Don't bother with 3" Joel

I've put it in the calendar and let the minister of social affairs know. (Basically called dibs)

Sure is a lot of haters............. Don't bother with a ZX..... Be original like everybody else! lol

The castrol fluid I have, is sealed. I've been using Penrite Sin for years now. And Lucas TRW pads. Sooooo......... It seems that I've been doing what people are suggesting.

ps- It's good to be out in the garage again, working on cars and hitting the track. oh.... And being a bit more involved back here! 8) 8) 8)

Currently have DBA's....... or was it RDA's Can't quite remember really. These have come recommended from a friend who's used them at the track. With same pads that I'll be using too. All good points. I think the pads will be similar to Project Mu, by reports. Would you use them on the road Gareth? Apparently there's been a bit of R&D put into these rotors. So will be the guinee pig for Z's I guess. I'll be flushing out the brake fluid me thinks and putting some Castrol race fluid I've had laying around.

So dad and I were having a look under the bonnet and dash, while looking at pics on the Internet. A Patrol master cylinder was recommended. Which is most likely going to happen. But has anyone had a good look at the boosters too? I'd like to know if anyone has done sometime like that! The mounting looks pretty much bolt on, piping will need re-routing and get a larger 1" bore. Also, getting some new rotors http://deliosbrakes.com/delios-products/dynamix/ They apparently work quite well on the track, with reduced heat and fade. Which is what I'm after. Think a set of race pads for track and changing back to street pads for on road stuff.

Going by MSCA class rulings, Modern is post 1986.

Cheers DOUG........ I just looked at the avatar pic. Lol

I'm following you now Jas. But doubt I'd be putting the car through the same stresses as the rally boys. Is the Patrol master a direct bolt on Jake? Why would that be a better option than an R32?
