RB30X

Rear bumper is painted the same colour as the 260 I have in the wrecking 260 2+2 thread. Looks pretty straight. I am in Townsville QLD. I'll take some pics tomorrow but it was definently wider by about 3 inches?

Ha, I'm in the suburbs too with only 1004m2 The bloke I bought it off had it painted a few years ago, then it sat at his mates place under a tarp till I bought it. I'd love some rota RB's/superlites/watanabe's. Mossy's ones here look awesome: http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,2124.msg31412.html#msg31412

Now it definetly needs lowering with fatter rims and rubber.

VL Turbo's are 1" from memory.

I grabbed this front bumper off a 260Z thinking it would fit my 240Z and after a few hours of grinding and panel beating and sanding, I go to dummy fit it and the ***tard is too big. I also have a rear bumper. If anyone is interested I'll take some pics. I'm now in need of a front 240Z bumper if anyone has one. cheers

Chasing a 240Z front bumber in resonable to good condition. Cheers

Where did you get a 1" MC?

Well I picked up some ZG flares the other day. Dimitri the champion, (Zedman240) provided me with the nutserts and stainless allen headed screws to go with them. Being such a generous fellow, he also borrowed me his nutsert installation tool to use, now that's service. I obvioulsy browsed heavily over the Hybrid Z thread on the installation of the ZG flares but there isn't a whole lot of pics to help you out. Obvioulsy its all about the positioning of the flares themselves, so I made sure I measured several times before each nutsert hole was drilled. I haven't cut my guards as yet because I'd like to fit my wheels/tyres when I eventually get them before chopping into my Z. The inside of the flare has to sit with the groove between the wheel arches so I sticky taped that side in place while I positioned the rest. From looking a several pics, I'm pretty sure the top two screw holes should sit with an an ever so slight angle towards the center of the car if you know what I mean. I also ran a tape line along the car to get a horizontal plain but the wheel arches themselves arn't even so I don't think it helped. I bought some rubber stripping to go between the flares as well but not the 'flare' rubber that they sell as that stuff was almost as big as the flares themselves. Just a P profile strip that I could slice down the middle and use both top and bottom. I cut sections out just as old mate did on the Hybrid forum. I have painted the flares this arv so I'll give them a sand and second coat tomorrow. Here's a "few" picys I took today: I've also decided since I can't have an OS Giken twin cam head, I'm sure as hell going to paint my standard single cam rocker cover in the same wrinkle coat black . I took a bit to figure out how the wrinkle coat works. I found it needs to dry laying horizontal so do one flat surface at a time and even though it might be touch dry it takes at least 48 hours to get hard. I will hopefully sand back the raised Nissan and stripes at a later date.

Sorry Rev has picked up the pedal box.

Whats wrong with flares?????????

Depending on the answer to the question above (underdriven would be prefered) sign me up for one. Oh, and post up a pic, i want to see how pretty they are. cheers

Glad they got there alright considering how hard it is to pack plastic panels like that. The vinyl is in great shape isn't it. Cheers

I'm pretty sure i'd have them somewhere mate, but I'd say they have a bit of corrosion. ebay had a new bit that bolts to the timing cover with the solid heater pipe (no female thread). I'm currently running the threaded one but with a single hose tail to the back of the block. I also have at least two 280zx alternators. Maybe you can help me out with a wiring diagram and a voltage reg (apparently you need one) and you can have one. I find Pirtek have a lot of fittings like your chasing, maybe try them.

Whats the asking price again or is it offers still?

Don't have anymore pics of the flare installation you discussed breifly so you?? I'm about to tackle this job myself soon.

Should also mention it's street registered in NEW ZEALAND Yeah shi'll be right bro its looks pritty safe to mii, jist make sure the whiily bars don't stuck out whin you're parkin it bro. Sorry Nzeder

Can anyone tell us if the L28 manual box and L26 are the same??? They certainly looked the same when I had an L24 box sitting next to an L28. Cheers

An R31 dizzy should be the same as an RB30 in a VL??

I could help you out with an L28 manual box (I assume they fit), a pedal box, flywheel, even a manual center console. Problem is I'm live in Nth QLD.

Wow looking good mate, there's a lot more room around the trumpets when your engine only has one camshaft. I'll definently be looking foward to the CAS on the dizzy tech, I was also wondering how I could use an electronic dizzy and somehow get a signal for the ecu for the injectors. And will pulling a vacuum signal from only one manifold port still work fine. Ohhhhh the questions I'll have for you. Good luck.

I'd like to see pics of the tail lights.

WOW, that is a nice interior.

I'll throw em in with your stuff and you can throw the polished rocker cover in with my stuff

Umm, I have no idea? Are the covers pictured with the seat belts on the second page?

Still have a bit of body stuff for sale. Rear bumper, stainless trims for the quarter glasses as well as the quarters themselves. Rear hatch, rear window and stainless trim. I will be removing the suspension and diff soon if anybody is interested. Did any of the early Z's come out with LSD diffs? This 260 is a late model with a manual so I'm thinking its an R180 but not sure of the center?
