UPDATES 7/12/05
---------------------------
I havn't updated in quite a while.. and alot has changed in the agenda of my 280Z...
First things first... peep this:
TURBO
-------------
YES (that is my turbo donor), I am crossing over to the dark-side. an L28ET will now be going into the 280Z... I've been planning this for a while, and I am still far from finishing... I estimate another 6 months to a year until the car is near completion (notice.. near completion). I will be takeing my time with this swap and at the same time I will be fixing all of the body... I'm buying the tools needed to finish my Z up.. and I'm very excited about the whole new turn for the project.
OTHER PROGRESS
-----------------------
I've bought an array of parts and still need many before I can go much further.
PARTS AQUIRED:
-----------------------
- Full weatherstripping kit
- 2 rear front quarter patch panels (still need lower rear quarter driverside panel)
- Early 280Z hood (no vents, gonna have to do something custom with it)
- Hyundai corner markers (same fit the lines of the Z and are closer to the car)
-MSD 6T Ignition box
I've invested a fair amount into my Turbo donor car, which now runs... more parts to come soon, havn't had much money to spend, but I am working on another load of parts (mostly turbo stuff).
Here's a new pic of my 280Z minus the front bumper (I'd been meaning to do this for a while, and even though I've found more rust, I like the look ALOT better).
I had to relocate my horns because the horn mounts were welded to the bumper shocks. I relocated them to the shock mounts with a little modding.
