    Finished polisin'

    From the album: My 1975 260Z

    Got the whole lot back on, the JDM manifold linkages had quite a few bits of Brass that come up a treat with the new linkages (also brass) and i also gave the carbs a really good clean inside and out. The rest of the parts are on their way.
  2. I'm in Ballarat and just as a note here are the parts available for a Z in Ballarat. 1 x e88 cylinder head At sebastopol motor wreckers Price $150 1 x L24 electronic distributor At central motor wreckers Price $110 And thats it. I have more parts for Z's than all the Ballarat wreckers combined. I have an N42 Head but it's on my car, the other one i have is E88 and has been crack tested.
  3. Are they wooden ones ?
  4. Which part are you missing?

    Triple Manifold

    From the album: My 1975 260Z

    I have had a couple of days off so i started polishing my Manifold.. Been at it all day should finish it tonight
  6. Yea keep the revs low Rev The water should turn into steam with the Heat of the engine.
  7. Just wondering what you guys did about the Choke cables as Three into 2 does not go. I'm thinkin about putting a third cable onto the Choke handle.
  8. The plugs are a bit black. I want to take the main jets down to 130'S. I put the Decibiel Meter next to the Carbs and they sing up to 120Db .... Ouch
  9. I can just see the seagulls in Finding Nemo..... Mine mine mIne MIne mine mine MINE
  10. Dude, That's a Z...Welcome..... i'm sure you'll get a lot of kicks from this site. Post up some pics if you can. These are a great bunch of people and they have helped me out Heaps Scoota G
  11. This was a cold start. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=scootag&search_type= Scroll down to Scoota and the 3 D's What you guys think?
  12. Yea they call that the Organic component or the spacer. I got some tiny grub screws and drilled them to 1.0mm and it is running a lot better. Thanks again guys for all your input
  13. K I need a picture with an arrow telling me which jet/holder i am going to modify. Me so confused. :-\
  14. True But all the bits are on the way. So all i need to do is fix the idle curcuit issue C how we go
  15. Me again with a question 4 Sulio. Just looking at restricting the idle curcuit and i got to thinkin. Pop rivets start at 0.8 mm inside dimention and 3.2 outer. A one eighth drill bit is 3.17mm so i think it would be possible to use these rivets if the holes are drilled out to 3.17 mm. Bit bush mechanic but what you think?
  16. Fudge ...... I tell ya my brakes don't seem work as well and everyone else is going really really slow
  17. ROFL :-\ :'(
  18. It can be amazing the difference one day can make. The D's are running fine as it turn out to be just slight adjustments in linkage and idle mixture. It does hesitate down low but get past 2 grand and hang on. The sound they make is just Bloody Awesome and the extra power is very noticible. (But no good if you work afternoon shift at Coles and have trouble with roundabouts ) Anyway many thanks to you guyz and Sulio for all the intel. I just need to keep tuning and they will be 100%. I posted a pic to

    Dellortos

    From the album: My 1975 260Z

    It took me 5 Months to get here but they are on
  20. Ironic Alanis Morrisette Ironic. I just fitted a PVC valve to my JDM Manifold Running Triple Dellortos and it makes a hell of a racket as it only draws off one cylinder. I was going to ask the same question but now i don't have to. Cheers ;D
  21. Ok here are the sizes 2 Carbs are running 145 Main jets / 7772.8 Emulsion tubes / 52 Idle jets / 210 Air correction The DHLA g Carb is running 145 Main Jets / 7772.10 Emulsion tubes / 55 Idle Jets / 240 Air correction Thats all i have for the minute
  22. Well, I bolted the setup on today and just got it running. The carbs are popping slightly through the Exhaust and it stutters up to about 2100 RPM and then they run clean and sound Friggin Awesome. The power is up and it now gets up to 80 Kays really quick. I am going to put a fuel pressure thing to restrict the flow and modify the linkages for the accelerator is not traveling a long way to open/close. Does it sound right about the fuel pressure?..... I think that is what is throwing the idle off. Can't wait to show someone... anyone..
  23. Good questions. I would say that the one online is updated constantly and the hardcopy (paper) is not. As for the other one any place you can find a Z for sale is good but i prefer the paper one.
  24. I had a car that through one wire not being earthed properly under the dash all Hell had broken loose in the electrical system.Do you have an Earth Strap to the engine and the Battery? I just fixed a ford that needed only an earth strap to the Chassis to start and run correctly. Unfortunate problem with your car is that it will probably be a process of elimination. But keep an open mind as the problem might not be where you think it is. But it looks like you have a lot of support anyways.
  25. Is the sucking noise there when you turn it over? Wjere does it originate from? It sounds like the booster Vaccuum tube. There are some bolt to undo the dash in the engine bay me thinks so you could have split disturbed the Brake Booster line then. The starting problem sounds like a Negative Earth problem. Check that all your Electricals are workin (light, horn, heater) and have them on when you try to start it. Just suggestions till we get more info. :-\
