I finally have my zed back on the road now so keen for any cruises. But I don't think for very long..... Gearbox needs to be rebuilt

Sweet another 2+2. Welcome man

Just using BP Ultimate...... Was tuned by APC in Brisbane Underwood. Idles and drives just like a standard car, except when you put your foot down.

Thanks guys...... I'm planning on rebuilding the engine within the next couple of months. The aim is 300kw atw, also have to change the diff its still the Auto R180 3.54 gears.

I've been a member on here for a while thought I'd finally post my 1976 260z 2+2. And I know the wheels big no no, I'm currently saving for a new set, unfortunately the funds having been going else where - wedding, saving for house, usual stuff. Basic run down on whats been done: Engine: L28ET 1.5mm head gasket, ARP Studs, IHI Turbo off an RX3 race car not exactly sure of size but does job, Haltec E6X fuel and ignition, haltec was controlling the boost but the solenoid died so I now run an E-Boost 2, 550cc injectors, Motec fuel rail, Bosch 044 fuel pump, 600x300x76 intercooler. Thats about the main stuff. Anyways all that gear is currently good enough for 211.9kw atw on 15psi and a stack of torque. Everything else on the car is pretty much like everyones on here. Usual Hilux caliper upgrade up front, DBA slotted and drilled rotors. All the bushes have been replaced with Nolethane items, Whiteline front and rear sway bars. The plan for the car was just a nice quick street car, with maybe the odd track day here and there. Look forward to taking it out with a few of the other Brisbane members on here. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Cheers

Would be great to meet up with some other zeds. Except today while I was at work a truck driving past lost its wheel and found its way into the front drivers quarter panel. Quite a bit of damage so will be off the road for a while now.

Pic from my engagement shoot we did with the Z. Hopefully change the wheels sooner rather than later.

I had central locking fitted to my 260z at Northfield Car Sound Nundah (Brisbane). Dropped off in the morning, picked the car up that afternoon.

I'm in Brisbane Northside - 1976 260z 2+2 Gold with black bonnet

I had the Haltech fitted and tuned for just under $2000 but that also included the electronic boost controller and 3hours on the dyno. Personally I would stay away from the Microtech. Its a bit more money upfront for the Haltech but will be worth it in the long run.

Awesome car... you should upgrade to the Haltech E6X - its fuel and ignition. I currently ran that computer for my L28ET and its unreal. That way you can use the Haltech Electronic boost controller if you like, and also runs closed loop for idle control. Just curious what sort of power are you currently making??
