Re: Front crank seal question
There are two schools of thought here. Yes the slinger helps the seal work better. However if your a high reving type of driver, and because the seal materials improved over the years, the new seal will work fine without the slinger. In high reving situations, the seal would work against the seals ...

Re: New 510 4-door, hi!
Welcome. I don't remember how easy that later Z alternator is to mount, but you'll figure it out.

Re: Oilpan Replacement Questions
Pressure seems a bit high for idle. For a street car that would probably be about normal for typical RPM driving.

Re: Subaru R180 diff in Nissan case
Yes Jeff. The NIssan original bolts for the R180 and the 38102-N3100 bolts are both 10x1.25, and correct, no 11mm shoulder. The Nissan 4.38 gear set threaded holes are 10mm. The through holes in the Subaru CLSD carrier are 11mm because bolts Subaru sues for attachment of the ring gear are 11mm. No d...

Re: Datsun/Subaru R180- What if?
In January I managed to find a couple front 4:38 720 diffs locally, which is fairly rare here in Big 3-centric Michigan. I have pulled covers and confirmed they are the stated ratio. I plan to modify to put a Quaife in one of them. Getting things lined up for that. I am finally getting back to my pr...

Re: Rear Crank Seal Question
Really like the patch. Great idea. Good call on the bolts Rob. You can get these from Z car depot too. Maybe not the cheapest though. https://zcardepot.com/products/driveshaft-propeller-shaft-bolt-r180-oem-240z-260z-280z?variant=19274582556785¤cy=USD&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cp...

Re: California Fires
Wow Chad, so sorry to hear this. Glad you are ok, and you seem to have a good attitude about everything. I have lived a lot of my life in tornado country, but fire is a scarier threat.
Best wishes on rebuilding your life.

Re: Installing headliner without rear pillar interior vents -- issues?
What kind of problems are you considering, airflow? There's always the vent windows if nice weather. If they are to be added later, that doesn't pose a problem. I cut the holes and installed mine after the headliner was in place.

Re: FS: Headliner bow set
Set sold on ebay.
If someone comes across this and desperately needs a set, I do have another set I am saving for any potential future project. I would let them go for a good home.

Re: Starter issues
If the power cable is 6 gauge from the battery all the way to the starter, that is too small and can't move enough current. Usually the battery cables just in the engine compartment are 4 gauge. I used 0 or 00 fine-strand welding cable to do mine. It should probably be at least 2 gauge for that leng...

Re: Which Rear Camber And Toe Product?
I have the Datsport on my race car, and have contemplated the Byron brackets for my street car. One thing different in my understanding is the Byron brackets and probably the Maddat version only provide adjustment on the inner, the outer remains stock bracket. Pros/cons of this are not something I f...
