All I have to do is make the patties (a few will be onion burgers). Then gas in the morning and off we go!!!!
I have what looked like new discs when I did he conversion, but with the way the pads seem I wouldn't be surprised if the discs weren't the greatest either.
Lol did you have to quote the entire post with those pictures just for one item?
Aero rims no longer for sale this weekend. I couldn't get a tire for my SSRs so I have to use an Aero to get to Oregon. May go back up afterwords.
Hmmm I've never had this much dust accumulate before. I guess I'll try switching to Akebobo pieces and try washing the wheels more often. Thanks everyone!
I do daily it, but I almost never hit traffic. I work graveyard so there's almost no people around when I'm on the road. Ill look into the quality ceramics mentioned above. Thanks guys!
No, I've had direct correspondence with Russell outside of the submission form. Oh well, no big deal. Im either not accepted of I have almost a month to receive an email packet. No worries.
What is a JDM front end?
Are you talking about the grille? If so, there are a few options you can go with: 68-72 SSS, 68-72 GL, 73 plastic SSS, 73 plastic GL... Just to name a few. Which are you looking for?
Well, I'm new to Datsuns, but not cars in general so I'm 90% certain I have excessive dust. I would bet that they are the cheapest available and it's the main contributor.
I was mainly curious if there was a good recognized brand that complimented the 510/280zx setup for daily use.
This could be a small part of it too, as I always say if I wash my car it will fall apart. All that 40yrs of dirt and grime are holding it together.
Currently running unknown brake pads at the moment and I hate them. I purchased a full 280zx strut swap awhile back and have been running whatever pads the previous own bought. They were brand new a few months ago and seem to function decently-ish, but I feel I have an abnormal amount of brake dust. My front wheels are just covered in the stuff. Not only do my wheels look like shit, but I'm sure so much dust only means the brakes are wearing quickly.
So my question: what is everyone's preferred brake pad? Not looking for the Walmart special $8/box pads, but don't need to spend $150/box either. I have no power on an L16 auto so I go barely fast enough to even use brakes. I don't autocross the car and I'm not in stop-and-go traffic for long periods.
Suggestions?
Touché.
I would personally keep your car and sell the 69 (even though I prefer 69s), But it seems you might have a buyer already for yours. Maybe you should sell it and just rock the 69. Either car is decent with its share of faults so either way you should be ok. Money talks if you want to fix the Z... So I'd say whicher gets cash first goes.
