    Intercooler Questions

    I'm modifying an '88 Z31 for speed, but I'm confused. My process begins with the exhaust, intake, boost controller, and now... I/C. I don't want to spend a lot of money on a I/C kit but don't have to tools to make my own, or the time to be that creative. I found this kit...

    Maybe its fuel?

    Trying to get my car running. Has two SU carbs. The recent issue seems to be the filter. A friend sucked the gas out and said if tasted like water (i thought that was a rather unorthodox method). After bypassing the filter with clean gasoline we turned the motor over as it drank more and more...

    Fix or Replace??

    I have an L24 in my 1972 Datsun 240z but it appears to have worn rings AND I'll have to replace the valve guides and seats so it can run on unleaded gasoline (Im from the states). Should I go through all of that, or get a new motor (RB25DET or SR20DET)? Opinions are much appreciated.

    Car: 1972 Datsun 240z Problem: High Oil Pressure When i turn the car to the on position, the oil pressure gauge sweeps just below 90 psi (the top of my guage). It used to be even higher than that but recently came down a bit. What really confuses me is that I just drained every drop of oil...

    Where do i even begin???

    My '72 Datsun 240Z has a bit of problems. I pulled my plugs and they looked dark and oily, so took it to the autoshop. The shop said it was carbon deposits and I should buy new plugs and run Seafoam through my gas. That caused carbon to billow from the exhaust, so I figured it was removing the...

    Slow accel, no power, its killing me

    Took my '71 Datsun 240z to a shop for electrical (needed them to make new harness). They got it to where it will pass inspection but...... now i can floor it and the needle takes around 3 full seconds to increase 1000rpm. Before i took it to the shop, it would fly up to 5000-6000rpm in about .75...

    Thoughts, ideas, and comments on this...

    I own a '72 Datsun 240z and was pondering the idea of putting in a RB25DET. It seems to be THE motor people are putting in 240z's and 240sx's. Its much stronger than the L-24, and has a nicer sound. The RD25DET im looking at costs $1,700 and comes with turbo, ignitor chip, ecu, wiring...

    '72 240Z from Pittsburgh, PA

    I own a fairly stock 1972 Datsun 240Z. All the mods up to this point have been mainly asthetic. I am in the process of getting an enhanced inspection (had salvage title), but want to fully mod this vehicle. The problem is that it has such a classy look, its hard to get any ideas. The interior I...
