This is the RB26 powered Z awhile ago.

Steve , has this thing run yet and what HP has it produced ?

What events has it done?

I admit that old school weber equipped Z's aren't our forte but I used to run one of the quickest Z's at Wanners in the street class many years ago for those who remember the VERY sideways white/green Auto Jap Spares one :rant:

Cheers

Ken

Counges Z is near finished now just fitting the factory RB26 wiring now.His work has held up the car for a year or so.

The car had ign problems at just over 400rwhp with the ECU it had but with the stock harness now we can us a Wolf or PFC plugin.

Rich Davies(The orange 240Z in the 240v350Z test in Speed mag) set the Lap record for his class at Wanners this year having no problem running down a Honda NSX so the old Zs still have life left in them.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
