Fuel pump update

Anyone know the difference between the 09-2015 and the 2015-2020 pump design?

That looks like a plumbing fitting, as house plumbing. 1/4MPT is common for icemakers, filters etc, but the block side would need to be metric.

I got the Hotchkis as it seemed to be the most popular wiht the 370 autocross/track crowd. Generally stiffer = better, not sure what the spring rates are on either bar off hand.

You should be able to loosen the jamb nut and turn the link to straighten them out, it will make a negligible change in length. Drivers weight, passenger, etc will change the preload more than...

Have you tried the TPS relearn? Might just be a bad TPB and or throttle pedal. FSM should detail the diagnostics for each.

I ran 285's on 9" fronts on my 350Z, they fit, but they are squeezed and in my case stock suspension means no camber and the outside shoulders wore badly.

Wow, props for taking the time to actually catalog your track tools. I just can't bring myself to break up sets so I bring a lot of unnecessary tools.

Don't forget jack and pinch weld adapter....

Agree on all points, "Fairlady Z" or even just "Z" would be better than an arbitrary number.

The bigger issue is we are on a website considered to be the authority on the current Z model and for...

Because instead of expressing the value in liters, or milliliters they chose decaliters which is an unusual unit of measure.

The "X" came into play in 1979 when they replaced the 1978 "280Z" Last of the S30 chassis) with the all new (S130) 280ZX. Completely different chassis but the drivetrain carried over with only minor...

One could argue the Z34 is just Z33.5. The S130 is more similar to the Z31 than the S30 if you're talking chassis.

Only problem with that is the Z34 is the 6th generation of Z car. (S30, S130, Z31, Z32, Z33, Z34) Proto Z is presumably Z35, which is more agreeable to me that 400Z.

Glad to hear I'm not alone on this.

They did use "380RS" on a hotted up version of the 350 with you guessed it a 3.8 liter engine.

Proto Z

Generally speaking the higher the jack capacity the beefier and more stable the unit and the less the effort to jack the car. 1.5 ton is fine most 2 ton just makes the job easier.

11" wide is wheel and 315 wide tire is max allowed in STU so that's why I'm looking to see if anyone actually runs them in STU. The 285's on 10.5 wheels are quite popular for the 350Z. I'm not...
