Too easy Peter will do for sure.

Ah all good mate, might go down the new module on the back of my current Tach if nothing presents its self, thanks mate (Y)

Hi peter, drama is mine isnt compatable with the electric dizzy as ive got a L28 in my old girl. from what i can see a few people have used the 280ZX ones and it worked. plus it should be a similar size to fit in my dash. though id try to find a relatively close to stock one before going down the after market route. i've shot Cozza a PM so i am waiting to hear back (fingers crossed lol)

Damn that looks like good value for money right there!

well i had an easier option with out having to go a whole new loom for now http://www.viczcar.com/forum/topic/10537-mys30-d-just-a-few-pictures/page-4?do=findComment&comment=173562 only thing i might need in the future is a new comb switch (Y)

well the exhaust was done not long after the post and i was quite happy with it. The interior got a coat of machinery grey which i think off sets the black interior well and shows off the reinforcing along the side rail. ( looks sorta race car spec ahah) After having my alternator die last saturday night coming home from a local car meet it was discovered that the alternator was never wired up correctly ( i was partially to blame but my electrician mate did the dodgy stuff lol) after getting a new unit it was then we realized that it was wrong from there we started with this list and then chasing wires for everything else started after finding what i didn't need in the engine bay with my thermo fans an other wiring we tidied it up then it was a matter of fitting in the secondary fuse box with relays for my thermos, power to the drivers seat & electric fuel pump whilst we were at it my mate Adam who is pretty switched on with electrical crap found out why my other gauges weren't working. it was a combination of bad contacts and earthing apparently but hey i now have a working fuel, oil pressure , amp and temp gauges. I just need to track down a 280 tach as i have the electronic dizzy so from what we can figure out using one of them will be easier than anything aftermarket for now. once i pull the dash out to fit what ever tach i get i will look at re doing my lighting in the dash better than before. but the finished product was that all the switches did there appropriate job! so there isn't much more i need to worry about before i can get a bit serious and look at the motor brakes and suspension but not necessarily in that order. hopefully this week ill take the zed for a tune as now the power to the coil and everything else its a tad on the rich side but an easy fix none the less.

Hey Guys I already have another mate trying to track down a 280zx tacho for me but i thought i'd post here as well to see whats out and a bout. I've tried tracking down a few people parting out 280's but no one seems to want to just give me a tacho i think its the easier way just to retro fit the other unit in other than something aftermarket for now. Cheers Matty

I picked my 260Z 2 seater for 13k bout 5 years ago. took me nearly that long to find one to begin with

Be interesting with the FJ20 swap

bursons in toowoomaba can get some K&N filters to suit, thats where i got mine from mate

bit of potential for both these cars. if i had a second car trailer id make the 20hr round trip to go and get them! the one with the V8 in it would be prime for my Barra powered Zed car dream!!

Isnt that bruce713 (instagram name) 280zx?? Either way looks bloody horn!!

strange place for a filler neck too... Duel fuel possibly??

I'm more partial to the 200ZR atm my self. dunno why maybe the slight rarity of them and the RB might be persuading my judgement??

Ive got the same drama with my gauges too soll ill be keen to see what people suggest

Motor? It was a rebuilt gearbox mate

Cheers Gav ??

Well good news guys! I've been a bit slack getting on the forum lately I've sold the super taxi and I'll be keeping the Datsun ☺️ But for some reason I can't access the edit post feature on my phone while I'm on holidays so I'll have to change it/ delete it when I'm home

It may be but nothing seems to be selling still

Looks like the bonnet is sold Peter T is going to take it guys

Yeah front needs a bit more prep where rust had been cut out. But it's priced accordingly

****bonnet sold pending payment **** Hey guys selling my Series 2 bonnet with vents bonnet needs a bit more prep work before colour can be laid looking around $250 Ono And also I have a rebuilt 280 5 speed looking chasing $1000 as that's what it cost me all up. Never been fitted just sits in the shed

I thought this thing would have moved pretty quick...... But it's still for sale

Yeah im hoping that the Falcon goes first but neither have really had any solid interest now. Cheers Matty
