Just a quick question, What is it about the l28e manifold that doesn't flow , is it the runners or the small plenum?

I am not sure where they came from. Chriss fergesson brought them over for me. He also had a few sets of real nice light waight adjustable trailing arms he was tempting me with, but i controled my self and left them with him. after all my 240 is going to be a road car not a race car.

I got the package for $1300 and that was for, 2 pair of front rotors 1 pair of rotor hats 1 pair of 260z hubs (for the offset) 1 pair of wilwood calipers 1 pair of adaptor brackets assorted nuts and bolts for fitments. Considering the price of brembos this is very affordable

Merry Christmas back to you. All you Victorians arnt a bad as every one makes you out to be. he he he

Nice!!! There is some real nice body work there

I hope it wasnt a gold one owned by chriss fergeson?

Good job that is a tricky shape, but not as tricky as the bit inside the dog leg

mehh i sterilised the drill bit

Nice mate. Its amazing what you can do with a bench vice and a hammer. Did you hit your thumb nails did you? I did that a few months back and had to relieve the pressure by drilling a hole in my thumb nail lol. It was instant relief

Those pics really make me want to go out and spend hours in the shed to get mine back together :'(

I am a panel beater by trade so i might be able to contribute

Yes the bottle is a bit pricy if you are only going to use it once, but if you use it all the time like me, its worth it. I just payed my bottle rental for the year today. $158 I did see that 280zx 2 seater for sale. It would be good but i already have 3 zeds and a 1963 blubird wagon. Oh and my mighty triton, full of dents

P.S i would give you a hand if you where closer

Do it! it makes it look more like a 240z. Coming from an experienced panel beater, I would use a gas mig if i could get my hands on one, and go slow so you don't warp it to much. Is this a 2 seater 280zx? I would love one of those

ahhh. Its a trip none the less seeing it again. Those pics where taken out the front of my mothers house, i still have one of the photos framed and hanging on my lounge room wall.

Well I'll be a monkeys uncle!!!! I am the guy from Australia that sold you this car. I am glad you did such a good job, it looks sweet! I missed that car so much that i had to go buy 240z. cheers Mick....

I finaly got a chance to do a bit more on the zed last week. I have started to clean and paint up the suspension. One question? do i have the spring in the cradle the right way around in this picture?

Done by next cruise ha ha ha!!! I thought I was going to have it done by next mb auto fest. I did manage to get my front struts painted up last week; The last meet gave me a bit of inspiration. Yes I think us south ozzys must be too lazy or sit home and smoke to much weed or something I do still need a driver’s side door trim in the near feature I am not quite ready for it yet though

yes the z31 California has wider Gard's than the earlier z31 an much smother lines. My 240z was fairly neat on the out side but the interia was rough as guts, I am changing the paint colour to wr blue

This is good read! Yes the l26 can be made to go well there is a guy here in south ozz Peter hall from hall race engineering is getting 260 hp from his l26 with round top Hitachi’s. Keep up the good work

i already have 2 l28 injection set ups so thats not an issue well at least this decision was easier than the last one i had. I was trying to decide between l series and rb but i chose the l series because i think there is something more exciting about a big hp l series

actualy i think i have red this some where before i think i wil stick with the l28 and maby stoke it to a l31 and make a monster thanx guys

thanx guys I feal welcom already. I have spoted a couple of people i know from other forums hi there mr,camoflarge

i have been offered a good r30 skyline engine l24e for my 240z where as i already have a couple of 280zx l28e engines. now i am having trouble making up my mind on which engine to run the l24 or the l28? keep in mind i will be using the p90 turbo head with injection and some boost which engine is better? I know the l24 revs better but which one can handle more power please give your opinions

Hi all As the title says rbz260 has been talking about this site a bit so I thought I would come check it out. About what I have I am building a 1973 240z which is currently upside down on a rotisserie in my shed I am keeping it l series but it will be injected and turboed. I have already collected some goodies such as p90 turbo head and turbo exhaust manifold, some wilwood 4 piston callipers and rotors, some low king springs. I have had the dash recovered through rear spares. So far the project is young but I will keep you all posted on my progress. I also have a z31 California that I will be doing some work to in the feature Here are a few pics for you all
