BTW is there any proper way to get that air galley off the exhaust manifold?

He has similar-ish carbs as i did in my 72, "regular" SU's. Yeah it will look way better without all those. So we'll just have to find a proper plugs for the exhaust manifold outlet and water hose....

My friend has a 1973 240Z with smog equipment, and he decieded to get rid of it. I just wonder what is the purpose of these pipes, my -72 does not have them. One goes to heater hose that comes from...

Well the old plugs were all black as a night. All.

I have this weird issue. Installed set of SK carbs this spring and had the tuned by pro. Been driving since with no problems until now, i cannot accelerate properly because one of the cylinders drop...

Dang bearing shop... they did not have that kind of bearing, well i completely washed it with degreaser and put new greases in. No more squeal! Hopefully that old bearing lasts...

I took that bearing off, it was completely dry and it was rattling. Even if the sound was not coming from there, i will change it. Mucho grease will definetly help!

Hah youre welcome, feel free to use that as your phone ringtone or something LOL :D

Just noted that i can get the same sound by pressing front left strut downwards (aka. hopping over hood) ......

Hah, okay thanks :) No balloon animals or puppies. It really is weird sound and it appears on all surfaces. Usually noise emerges when steering wheel is barely moved, when you turn it quikly or...

Seems like my car has gone old, it has started squealing from everywhere lol.

This aint a problem in daily drive, it's just embarrasing when parking and leaving, happens in low speeds. Also like...

That sounds kinda the same, except in my Z the noise comes when clutch is pressed. I shall try methods you have suggested and report back.

Can the throw out bearing be "too dry"?

Another voice can be heard inside the car when clutch is not depressed (that sound came after clutch change, it's not annoying but different than it used to be), slight hurrrrrrr kinda sound. Maybe...

My clutch started to behave oddly after i dynoed my Z. It runs well when all the components are cold, but after 10 minutes drive, shifting becomes embarrasing. It shifts okay but it screams like a...

Haha, a Lada enthusiast in Z site :D Those little boxy cars show up here now and then. They are the last remains of Communist Soviet Russia..lol

Speaking about carbs. I've done pretty well with my...

There is my Z (not me testing it) and got lousy 130hps on dyno. Well.. it only has triples and header so thats not a big surprise....

Wow, still snowing? Weather has gone all loco, here near arctic its warm and cozy. Have you tried to press "pedal to the metal", does it open throttle all the way or too much or is it adjusted just...

WOW. That looks cool, any stifness on pedal movement?

What might be the parts number for those hoses? For 100% certainty those hoses are not available here. I might try courtesy Nissan.

Exactly my toughts!! I was thinking of putting exactly the same thing to get rid of the bending! I managed to get that pedal feel a bit more softer by modifying the assembly, i gotta take pic to...

You got any source for oem hoses? Nice write-up.

Carbs are synced now and idle jets are 2.5 turns open (50F9) but it still spits while cruising. Taking the car for tuning soon, hopefully that solves it.

If you have "euro" Z, Wolfrace slot mags were not issued at the dealership around here. Only in US.

Seems like i need to make more modifications, linkage works but its stiff as hell (at the pedal) and wont pass inspection as it is now. Carbs works...okay-ish. You can accelerate without any...

I did the modifications to the pinion ring mount and installed it upside down. No effect :(
